3. Cookies
We may use essential cookies for site functionality and analytics cookies to understand usage patterns. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect site functionality.

Plant images are loaded from external sources (PlantNet, CloudFront). These services may log image requests according to their own privacy policies.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or share personal information with third parties. Anonymous, aggregated analytics data may be shared publicly (e.g., "our most viewed plant category is pet-safe plants").
6. Children's Privacy
