Browser storage and cookies.
Root & Ruler uses browser local storage for features you choose to save and cookie-free Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate audience measurement. Advertising remains disabled.
Local storage we use
Saved bed plans, crop favorites, seasonal checklist progress, and garden-log entries use named local-storage records. They provide the feature you requested, remain on the device, and are not read by a Root & Ruler backend.
Cloudflare Web Analytics
The public site loads Cloudflare's real-user measurement beacon. Cloudflare states that Web Analytics does not use client-side cookies or local storage to collect metrics and does not fingerprint users. It records aggregate traffic and performance signals; it does not receive workbench records or calculator inputs. See the service documentation and Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
Cookies we do not currently set
Root & Ruler does not activate advertising, ad personalization, or cross-site tracking cookies. Cloudflare may use strictly necessary security or traffic-delivery technology as described in its policies.
What must happen before monetization
Before non-essential storage is enabled, the deployed site must add a current consent solution, make rejecting as easy as accepting, block non-essential storage before the user’s choice where required, and provide a permanent way to change that choice. Google advertising in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland requires a Google-certified CMP integrated with the applicable IAB TCF version.
Control
Use the Privacy Choices control on the privacy page to remove Root & Ruler workbench data, use your browser settings to clear storage for the site, or use browser and content-blocking controls to limit the analytics beacon.
