Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how AgroVision ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at agrovisionplants.com. It describes what cookies are, which types we use, why we use them, and how you can control your cookie preferences.

By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this Policy. You may withdraw or adjust your consent at any time using the methods described below. This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader information about how we handle your personal data.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how visitors interact with their site.

Cookies can be "session cookies," which are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies," which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you delete them. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services operating on the website ("third-party cookies").

Similar tracking technologies — such as web beacons, pixel tags, local storage objects, and fingerprinting scripts — may also be used for comparable purposes. References to "cookies" in this Policy include all such technologies unless stated otherwise.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the basic functioning of our website. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure areas, and form submissions. Without these cookies, the website cannot function properly. Because they are strictly necessary, they cannot be disabled through our cookie preferences tool.

2.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often, how long users stay on each page, and any error messages encountered. All data collected is aggregated and anonymized; no individual user is identified. We use this information to improve how our website performs and to understand visitor behavior.

2.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, they may remember your language preference, your location for service area purposes, or form fields you have previously completed. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

2.4 Marketing and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements relevant to your interests and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. They track your visits to our website and other sites in order to build a profile of your interests. This information may be shared with third-party advertising partners. Marketing cookies are only placed with your explicit consent.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• View cookies stored on your device and delete them individually or in bulk
• Block all cookies or only third-party cookies
• Receive a notification before a cookie is placed

Please note that blocking or deleting essential cookies may affect the functionality of our website and prevent certain features from working correctly. The following links provide guidance for managing cookies in common browsers:

5.3 Opt-Out from Analytics and Advertising

You may opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

To opt out of Meta advertising cookies, adjust your preferences in your Facebook or Instagram account settings under "Ad Preferences."

6. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you prefer not to be tracked across third-party websites. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals in a standardized way, as no uniform technical standard has been adopted industry-wide. However, you can use the opt-out mechanisms described in Section 5 to limit tracking.

7. Cookies and Children

Our website is not directed to individuals under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors through cookies or any other means. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has accessed our website, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

8. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, applicable regulations, or our business practices. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
