Privacy Policy
Overview
Hope & Harvest LLC (“we,” “us”) operates hopeandharvestmn.com. This policy explains what information our public website may collect and the choices you have.
We do not sell your personal information.
Information We Collect on This Website
Aggregate page counts (GoatCounter)
We use GoatCounter to count page visits in aggregate. GoatCounter does not use cookies on this site and does not build individual visitor profiles. It records basic information such as the page visited, referrer, and browser type.
Google Analytics 4 (GA4)
We also use Google Analytics 4. GA4 behavior depends on your region and cookie choice:
- Outside the EEA, UK, and Switzerland: GA4 analytics cookies are enabled by default so we can measure general site usage. We do not show the cookie notice in these regions unless you previously saved a choice in your browser.
- Inside the EEA, UK, or Switzerland: we ask first. Decline (or no choice yet) keeps GA4 in a limited, cookieless mode. Google may receive basic measurement pings (for example, page path and browser type) without setting analytics cookies on your device. Accept allows GA4 analytics cookies and richer usage data (for example, session continuity, traffic sources, and device categories).
Your cookie choice is saved in a shared site cookie (.hopeandharvestmn.com) so it applies on both the public website and the Queen Rearing Planner (queen.hopeandharvestmn.com). You can reset it by clearing cookies for hopeandharvestmn.com in your browser; EEA, UK, and Switzerland visitors will see the cookie notice again on the next visit.
