We document storage lifetimes, ad click tokens, and consent controls plainly.

Document Effective Date & Governance

This cookie policy took effect on November 12, 2026. It applies to all visitors accessing kauffmanmarketpl.com from Burgettstown, across Pennsylvania, and internationally.

Kauffman Market operates this online farm market showcase and reservation portal. When you browse our produce listings or configure bakery pre-orders, your web browser interacts with storage mechanisms designed to deliver page stability, retain support chat threads, and gauge marketing campaigns across paid advertising networks.

This policy is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and applicable United States federal laws, with disputes heard in the competent courts of Burgettstown, Pennsylvania.

Cookie & Storage Categories

We distinguish strictly between essential operational storage keys, performance analytics, and marketing identifiers.

Unlike automated corporate websites that run dozens of untracked trackers, our footprint is deliberately lean and categorized into three distinct operational tiers:

• Strictly Necessary Technical Storage: Essential for foundational site operations. This includes the browser token for the support chat desk, anti-spam validation tokens, and the site_consent_v2 flag that records your privacy choices. These cannot be switched off without disabling core site features.
• Measurement & Analytics Storage: Used to aggregate anonymized visitor metrics, such as popular harvest items, page dwell times, and bounce rates. These assist us in adjusting our fresh produce supply chain and counter inventory. They operate strictly when consented.
• Targeted Advertising & Marketing Identifiers: Deployed in connection with Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta Ads campaigns. They record click tokens (gclid, msclkid, fbclid) to measure conversion attribution when a visitor arrives from a search query or social ad. They remain entirely blocked until affirmative consent is given.

Detailed Storage Inventory

The table below enumerates every cookie and local storage item utilized on this website.

Paid Advertising Platforms & Click Identifiers

Our marketing campaigns utilize platform-specific URL query parameters to evaluate ad reach.

This website receives direct traffic from paid advertising campaigns running on google ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta Ads. When a visitor navigates to our website through an advertisement, the linking URL contains explicit advertising query tokens:

• gclid (Google Click Identifier): Transmitted by google ads search and shopping placements to identify the specific ad interaction and campaign group.
• msclkid (Microsoft Click Identifier): Appended by Microsoft Advertising to connect search results from Bing with counter reserve inquiries.
• fbclid (Facebook Click Identifier): Passed by Meta Ads when visual photo announcements appear in feeds.

These identifiers are processed within server access logs and analytics tags strictly when tracking consent is active. We never use click identifiers to link anonymous browsing history to personal financial data.

Google Consent Mode v2 Architecture

Four technical storage parameters are kept in a denied state until affirmative authorization is recorded.

In accordance with current Google Shopping and retail ad compliance guidelines, our website integrates Google Consent Mode v2 natively. The consent management script executes before any marketing script or analytics payload:

gtag('consent', 'default', {
  'ad_storage': 'denied',
  'ad_user_data': 'denied',
  'ad_personalization': 'denied',
  'analytics_storage': 'denied'
});

What these four signals enforce in practice:

• ad_storage: Blocks advertising cookies from reading or writing data to the client device.
• ad_user_data: Restricts sending user-derived signals to advertising platforms for ad attribution.
• ad_personalization: Prevents remarketing lists and audience-based ad personalization.
• analytics_storage: Blocks statistical analytics cookies from persisting session identifiers.

If a visitor clicks “Accept” in our banner, the signals are dynamically updated to granted. If a visitor declines or later revokes consent, all four parameters are instantly reverted to denied, preventing any subsequent advertising beacon transmission.

Managing Your Consent Choices

You can grant, inspect, or revoke cookie permissions at any moment using our footer controls.

When you first land on our website, a prominent cookie banner appears along the bottom edge of your screen. You have the immediate choice to “Accept” or “Decline” non-essential storage. Your decision is recorded locally in your browser under the key site_consent_v2 for a duration of 12 months.

To change or withdraw your choice at any point during your visit, click the Cookie Preferences button located in the footer of every page on this site. You may also clear local storage and cookies through your web browser’s native developer tools or privacy settings at any time.

Effects of Declining Cookies

Declining non-essential cookies does not restrict access to our farm catalogue, pricing, or reserve form.

If you choose to decline cookies:

• You can freely browse all farm produce, heritage dairy, stone-deck bakery goods, and regional Pennsylvania delicacies.
• Our interactive order sizing and box load calculator operates normally without saving marketing trackers.
• You can submit reservation requests via forec5d.php; inquiry form functionality remains fully operational.
• Live customer support via bumice2.php remains available using session-based communication.
• Advertising cookies from Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta Ads will be strictly blocked, and your visit will not be included in conversion remarketing audiences.
