Legal information
Cookie & Similar Technologies Policy
Last updated: 20 September 2026
1. About this policy
This policy explains how UPFARM uses cookies and similar browser technologies on upfarmfoods.com. It complements our broader Privacy Notice.
2. What these technologies are
Cookies are small files a website or service stores through your browser. Local storage is a separate browser feature that lets a website retain information on your device. Session and security technologies can also support secure forms, authentication and payments. We describe each mechanism accurately rather than calling every technology a cookie.
3. Necessary technologies
Necessary technologies support authentication, security, cart storage, checkout, payment, session functionality, order tracking, privacy requests and remembering your privacy choices. They are always active because the website relies on them for the services you request.
4. Analytics technologies
Optional analytics helps us understand aggregate website usage and performance. Where configured, this includes Google Analytics 4, Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights. These services stay off until you make an affirmative choice.
5. Technologies currently used

UPFARM uses Auth.js and configured identity providers for authentication, Cloudflare Turnstile for contact-form security, Cashfree or Razorpay for payment functionality, and Google or Vercel measurement services only when optional Analytics is allowed. These providers may process browser or transaction information under their own terms and configurations.
8. Updates
We version cookie preferences separately from the Privacy Notice. We may ask you to choose again when categories, providers or purposes materially change, but not for minor copy edits.
