How we use cookies and similar technologies on our website.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit.
Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, to provide reporting information, and to support a better user experience. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Micro-Greens Farm Ja) are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called third-party cookies.
Similar technologies — such as web storage (localStorage and sessionStorage) and pixel tags — operate in a comparable way and are also covered by this Policy.
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
We will only place non-essential cookies with your explicit consent, in accordance with the Jamaica Data Protection Act 2020, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as your shopping cart, security controls, and session continuity. The website cannot function properly without them and they cannot be disabled through our consent tool.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest / technical necessity (no consent required).
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as dismissing a notice banner) and provide enhanced, personalised features. They do not track your activity across other websites.
Legal basis: Your consent.
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use this data to improve the site's structure, content, and performance.
Legal basis: Your consent.
These cookies track your browsing activity across websites to allow advertising partners to deliver relevant advertisements, and to limit the number of times you see an ad. They may share this information with other organisations such as social media platforms.
Legal basis: Your consent.
The table below lists the specific storage entries set by our website. As a primarily client-side application, we rely on browser localStorage rather than traditional HTTP cookies for most functionality.
| Name / Key | Type | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
mgfj_cookie_consent |
localStorage | Strictly Necessary | Stores your cookie consent choices and policy version to avoid repeatedly showing the consent banner. | 1 year or until cleared |
mgfj_consent_log |
localStorage | Strictly Necessary | Audit log of your consent history (up to 100 entries) for compliance record-keeping. | 1 year or until cleared |
mgfj_orders |
localStorage | Strictly Necessary | Stores your submitted order history on your device for order confirmation and reference. | Until browser storage is cleared |
mgfj_cart / session |
sessionStorage | Strictly Necessary | Holds your current shopping cart contents during your visit. Cleared when you close the browser tab. | Session only |
ann_dismissed |
sessionStorage | Functional | Remembers that you dismissed the announcement bar so it doesn't reappear during the same session. | Session only |
mgfj_contact_rate |
sessionStorage | Functional | Rate-limits contact form submissions to prevent abuse (maximum 3 per hour per session). | Session only |
_ga / _gid |
HTTP Cookie | Analytics | Google Analytics — distinguishes users and sessions for aggregated traffic reporting. (Only set if analytics consent is granted.) | 2 years / 24 hours |
_fbp |
HTTP Cookie | Marketing | Meta (Facebook) Pixel — identifies browsers for ad targeting and campaign measurement. (Only set if marketing consent is granted.) | 3 months |
ig_did / Instagram session |
HTTP Cookie | Marketing | Set when following links to our Instagram page. Managed by Meta, not us. (Only active if you click through to Instagram.) | Managed by Meta |
Note: Third-party cookies (Google Analytics, Meta Pixel) are only activated when you grant analytics or marketing consent respectively. Our site does not currently embed these scripts — they are listed here for full transparency.
Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services. We do not control these cookies and they are governed by the respective third party's privacy and cookie policies.
| Provider | Purpose | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Aggregated website analytics (only with analytics consent) | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Meta (Facebook/Instagram) | Ad targeting and campaign measurement (only with marketing consent) | facebook.com/privacy/policy |
| Cloudflare (Font Awesome CDN) | Delivery of icon font assets; no tracking cookies set | cloudflare.com/privacypolicy |
In addition to traditional HTTP cookies, our site uses browser Web Storage (localStorage and sessionStorage). Unlike cookies, Web Storage data is not automatically transmitted to our servers — it remains entirely on your device.
All data held in localStorage under our keys (mgfj_*) stays on your device and is never transmitted to any external server by us. You can clear it at any time through your browser's storage settings or developer tools.
When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner will appear giving you the following choices:
Your choice is recorded with a timestamp and stored in mgfj_cookie_consent. You can update your preferences at any time by clicking the button below:
Your consent is valid for 12 months or until you change it. If we make significant changes to our cookie use, we will ask for your consent again.
If you are a California resident, you have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. We do not sell your personal information. Declining marketing cookies prevents any ad-targeting data sharing. For further requests, contact us at the details in Section 10.
If you are in the European Economic Area, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Use the preferences button above or contact us directly.
Under the Jamaica Data Protection Act 2020, you have the right to be informed about how your data is used. This policy, together with our Privacy Policy, fulfils that obligation.
Most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically:
Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this and many other websites. The shopping cart, for example, requires localStorage to work.
Browser-specific instructions:
For opt-out tools from advertising networks, visit Your Online Choices (EU) or Digital Advertising Alliance (US).
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, legal requirements, or our business practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you via the consent banner.
We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
