Cookie policy

What cookies UK Farmers Markets sets and how to disable them.

We use cookies sparingly. The consent banner you saw on your first visit asks for your preference; you can change it any time by clearing your browser's localStorage for this site.

Essential cookies (always set)

  • FMSESS — session cookie. Tracks login state for admins and claimed listings. Expires when you close the browser.
  • fm.cc.v1 (localStorage) — remembers your cookie consent choice so we don't re-ask.

Analytics cookies (optional, off until you accept)

  • We use a self-hosted tracker that doesn't set client-side cookies. Instead, server-side, we record a daily-rotating salted hash of your IP+user-agent so we can count unique visitors without storing IPs.
  • If you decline analytics in the consent banner, no tracking events are sent to the server.

Third-party cookies

None on directory pages. The map (Leaflet) loads tiles from MapTiler/OpenStreetMap; those services may set their own cookies under their own policies — we don't control or read them.

Disabling

Click "Essential only" in the consent banner, or use your browser's privacy settings. Either way the directory works fully.
