Privacy, simply.
Your garden stays in this browser.
The site stores saved crops, regions, planting dates and completion status in local storage on your device. Your full plan and chosen dates are not uploaded. You can remove individual plants in My Garden, or clear this site’s data in your browser settings to remove the full plan.
Optional website analytics.
If you choose Allow analytics, Google Analytics uses cookies to measure visits, referral sources, regional search results, crop saves and calendar exports. Events include the page, country, state or province, and crop where relevant. We do not send search query text, planned dates or your full saved garden. Google processes connection information, including your IP address, to deliver analytics. Advertising personalization and Google signals are disabled. If you decline, the Google analytics tag is not loaded. You can change your choice using Analytics preferences in the footer. Your choice is remembered on this device for one year.
Read Google’s privacy policy. This site has no registration or advertising pixels. Calendar files are generated on your device. When you import a file into a calendar provider, that provider’s privacy terms apply.
Short visit-counting trial.
For seven days, we count a browser once per UTC day to understand which guides people reach and where visits come from. This count runs separately from optional Google Analytics. Your browser sends a daily-changing random key, page path and broad referral source. We do not store your IP address, browser details, search terms or saved garden in this database. We stop collecting when the trial ends and delete the counts and daily keys after fourteen days. The homepage shows today’s UTC count and the trial total. The daily limit is 5,000 new browser visits.
Hosting and external sources.
Cloudflare delivers this website and processes normal connection information, such as IP addresses and request metadata, to operate and secure its service. Links to Extension publications take you to independent websites with their own privacy practices.
Images and saved plans.
Garden imagery is illustrative. It is not evidence of a particular local garden or crop result. Local plans are not backed up by Garden by Season; export dates if you want a copy elsewhere.
