This Cookie Policy explains how Crust & Crumb Supplies Ltd. ("Crust & Crumb," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website at www.crustandcrumb.ca (the "Website"). This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
When you first visit our Website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies, accept essential cookies only, or manage your preferences. Your selection is stored in your browser's local storage and will be remembered for subsequent visits unless you clear your browser data or change your preferences.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website operators to make their websites function correctly, to operate more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting and analytics information.
Cookies set by the website operator (in this case, Crust & Crumb Supplies Ltd.) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website operator are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as analytics, interactive content, and advertising.
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage objects (including HTML5 local storage), and browser fingerprinting. These technologies serve similar purposes to cookies and are governed by this Cookie Policy.
We classify the cookies used on our Website into the following categories based on their purpose and function:
These cookies are essential for the operation of our Website and cannot be disabled without significantly affecting your ability to use the site. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging into secure areas, or filling in forms. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are exempt from consent requirements under applicable privacy laws.
| Cookie Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID |
Session | Maintains the user's session state across page requests. Required for form submissions, contact inquiries, and maintaining continuity during a browsing session. This cookie contains a randomly generated session identifier and does not store any personal data directly. | Session (expires when browser is closed) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
cc_cookie_consent |
Local Storage | Stores the user's cookie consent preference (either "all" or "essential"). This value determines whether optional analytics cookies are loaded on subsequent visits. Prevents the cookie consent banner from being displayed on each visit. | Persistent (until manually cleared by user) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
cc_cookie_consent_date |
Local Storage | Records the date and time at which the user made their cookie consent selection. Used for record-keeping and compliance purposes to demonstrate when consent was obtained. | Persistent (until manually cleared by user) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
csrf_token |
Session | Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection token. Generated for each session and validated when forms are submitted to prevent unauthorized form submissions from third-party websites. Essential for the security of our contact and inquiry forms. | Session (expires when browser is closed) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
These cookies allow us to count visits, identify traffic sources, and understand how visitors navigate our Website so that we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the site, and whether visitors encounter any errors. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous. These cookies are only set if you have consented to "All Cookies" via our cookie consent banner.
| Cookie Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Persistent | Used by Google Analytics to distinguish unique users by assigning a randomly generated number as a client identifier. This cookie is included in each page request and is used to calculate visitor, session, and campaign data for site analytics reporting. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized. | 2 years | Google LLC (Third Party) |
_ga_XXXXXXXXXX |
Persistent | Used by Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to maintain session state. Contains a unique identifier for the analytics property and is used to calculate the duration of a visit and the number of pages viewed. The "XXXXXXXXXX" portion is replaced with the unique identifier of our GA4 property. | 2 years | Google LLC (Third Party) |
_gid |
Persistent | Used by Google Analytics to distinguish users within a 24-hour window. This cookie stores and updates a unique value for each page visited and is used to count and restrict requests to Google Analytics servers. | 24 hours | Google LLC (Third Party) |
_gat_UA-XXXXXXXX-X |
Session | Used by Google Analytics to throttle request rate and limit data collection on high-traffic sites. This cookie does not store any user information and is used purely for performance management of the analytics script. | 1 minute | Google LLC (Third Party) |
Functional cookies enable our Website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party service providers whose services we have integrated into our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features may not function properly.
| Cookie Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cc_form_data |
Session | Temporarily stores form field values during the contact form submission process. If a form submission fails validation, this cookie allows the previously entered data to be restored so that the user does not need to re-enter all information. Data is cleared upon successful form submission or session expiry. | Session (expires when browser is closed) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
cc_nav_state |
Local Storage | Stores the collapse/expand state of the mobile navigation menu to maintain a consistent user experience when navigating between pages on mobile devices. | Session (expires when browser tab is closed) | Crust & Crumb (First Party) |
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences in the following ways:
When you first visit our Website, a cookie consent banner will appear at the bottom of the page. You can choose to "Accept All Cookies" (which enables all categories including analytics) or select "Essential Only" (which limits cookies to those strictly necessary for the Website to function). Your preference is stored using browser local storage and will be remembered on subsequent visits.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically configure your browser to: block all cookies; block only third-party cookies; delete cookies when you close the browser; or receive a prompt before a cookie is stored. The method for managing cookies varies by browser. Please consult your browser's help documentation for instructions:
Please note that if you block or delete cookies, some features of our Website may not function properly, and your cookie consent preferences will be reset.
If you wish to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your website visits, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on, which is available for most major browsers. This add-on instructs the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and gtag.js) to prohibit sending visit information to Google Analytics. The add-on is available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Some of the data we store uses your browser's local storage rather than traditional cookies. Local storage can be cleared through your browser's developer tools or through the browser settings under "Site Data" or "Storage." Clearing local storage will reset your cookie consent preferences and you will be presented with the consent banner again on your next visit.
Some web browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals to websites. As there is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, our Website does not currently respond to DNT signals. However, you can manage your tracking preferences using the cookie consent mechanisms described in Section 4 above.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable laws or regulations, or updates to our data practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically.
If we introduce new categories of cookies (for example, advertising or marketing cookies), we will update this policy and, where required by applicable law, seek your consent before deploying such cookies.
For more detailed information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information, including information collected through cookies and similar technologies, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
For general information about cookies and how they work, you may also visit allaboutcookies.org, which provides comprehensive, independent information about cookies and how to manage them in various browsers.
