Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how SoilToSupply.com uses them, what types of cookies we place on your device, and how you can manage or disable them.

By continuing to browse or use SoilToSupply.com, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.

Where required by applicable law, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use, which together form the complete set of policies governing your use of this website.

If you have any questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at [email protected].

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website.

They are widely used by websites to make the site work correctly, improve user experience, and provide information to site owners about how visitors are interacting with their content.

Cookies are stored by your web browser and sent back to the originating website each time you visit, allowing the site to recognize your device and remember certain information about your previous visits.

Cookies are not programs — they cannot run code, carry viruses, or install malware. They are simply small data files that contain a string of text.

Beyond cookies, websites may also use similar tracking technologies such as:

• Web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) — tiny transparent images embedded in pages or emails that signal when a page has been viewed
• Local storage — browser-based storage that allows websites to save data locally on your device
• Session storage — similar to local storage but cleared when your browser session ends
• Scripts and SDKs — code loaded from third-party services that may collect behavioral data

For the purposes of this policy, all such technologies are collectively referred to as “cookies.”

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

SoilToSupply.com uses cookies for the following general purposes:

• To ensure the website functions correctly — certain technical cookies are essential for basic site operation and cannot be disabled without affecting core functionality
• To understand how visitors use the site — analytics cookies help us see which articles are most popular, how long readers stay on pages, and where visitors come from, so we can improve our content and user experience
• To remember your preferences — some cookies store your settings so you don’t have to re-enter them each visit
• To support third-party services — some features on this site rely on third-party providers (such as embedded content or analytics platforms) that set their own cookies

We do not use cookies to serve targeted behavioral advertising or to build profiles about you for marketing purposes.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled.

They are typically set in response to actions you take on the site, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms.

Without these cookies, parts of the website will not operate correctly.

These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and do not require your consent under most data protection frameworks.

3.2 Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use SoilToSupply.com — which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on each page, and how they arrived at the site.

All data collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous and is used solely to improve the website.

We use Google Analytics to collect this data. Google Analytics sets cookies that help us understand visitor behavior across the site without identifying individual users. IP addresses are anonymized where required by applicable law.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on, available free from Google.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, text size, or whether you’ve dismissed a notification) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

These cookies do not track your browsing activity on other websites.

3.4 Third-Party Cookies

Some pages on SoilToSupply.com include content from or links to third-party platforms. These third-party services may set their own cookies when you interact with their content.

We do not control these cookies and are not responsible for the information they collect.

Third-party services that may set cookies when their content appears on this site include:

• Google Analytics

Used for website traffic analysis and audience insights. Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

• YouTube (Google LLC)

Where video content is embedded in articles, YouTube may set cookies related to video playback and user preferences. Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

• Email Marketing Platforms (e.g., Mailchimp, ConvertKit)

If you interact with our newsletter signup forms, the platform used to manage our mailing list may set tracking cookies related to email campaign performance. These platforms operate under their own privacy and cookie policies.

• Social Media Platforms

Where social sharing buttons or embedded social media content appears on the site, platforms such as Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, or Pinterest may set cookies. These cookies are set by the respective platforms and governed by their own policies.

• Disqus or Other Comment Systems (if applicable)

Where a third-party comment system is used, it may set cookies related to user authentication and comment management.

We encourage you to review the cookie and privacy policies of any third-party services directly if you have concerns about their data practices.

4. Cookie Duration: Session vs. Persistent

Cookies fall into two categories based on how long they remain on your device:

• Session Cookies

These are temporary cookies that exist only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted from your device when you close your browser.

Session cookies are typically used for essential functionality like maintaining your navigation state.

• Persistent Cookies

These cookies remain on your device after your browser is closed, until either their expiration date is reached or you manually delete them.

Persistent cookies are used for functions like remembering your preferences between visits and analytics tracking.

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. There are several ways to manage your cookie preferences:

5.1 Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit SoilToSupply.com, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline different categories of cookies.

You can update your preferences at any time by revisiting the cookie settings option on the site.

5.2 Browser Settings

All major web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
