Cookie Policy

1. What This Policy Covers

This Cookie Policy explains how LandSentry uses cookies, local storage, and similar browser technologies in connection with the website, our forms, privacy settings, analytics, and anti-abuse protections.

2. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. Similar technologies can include local storage, browser-based identifiers, pixels, scripts, and other tools used to remember settings, support security, or understand site usage.

3. Why We Use Them

• To keep core site functions working.
• To remember your cookie and privacy acknowledgement preferences.
• To help secure forms and reduce spam or automated misuse.
• To support analytics and performance measurement.
• To understand general site reliability and traffic patterns over time.

4. Types We Use or May Use

Essential cookies and storage: These help the site function, remember consent choices, and support core security and form protections.

Security and anti-abuse technologies: We use technical controls that may rely on cookies or similar identifiers to limit spam, repeated automated submissions, and suspicious behavior in forms.

Analytics and measurement: Where enabled, these help us understand page usage, traffic trends, performance, and general site effectiveness.

5. Cookies and Storage We Know We Use

• Consent memory: we use a cookie and local storage entry named cookie_consent to remember whether you acknowledged the privacy notice.
• Security and rate limiting: our forms may set or use cookies that help slow repeated abuse.
• Client-side session support: local storage may be used to remember browser-side identifiers connected to spam prevention.
• Analytics: tools such as Google Analytics or other performance-measurement services may store identifiers for aggregated traffic analysis.

6. Google reCAPTCHA and Third-Party Cookies

Our contact and land request forms use Google reCAPTCHA to help distinguish real users from abusive or automated traffic. Google and related services may set their own cookies or collect browser, device, interaction, and network information under their own terms and privacy practices.

7. Analytics and Measurement Tools

The site may use analytics and measurement tools, including Google Analytics and site-performance measurement services, to understand broad usage patterns, traffic volumes, and page performance.

8. Your Choices

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through our on-site consent controls. You may also clear local storage in your browser. Blocking essential cookies or related storage may affect form submissions, consent memory, spam protection, or other parts of the site's functionality.

9. Retention

Some cookies are session-based and expire when you close your browser. Others persist for a defined period. Analytics cookies typically expire after 12-26 months depending on the tool.
