This Privacy Policy explains how Budster Farm LLC, operator of the Budster Harvest farm stand in Logan, Utah, collects, uses, stores and protects information when you visit our website, contact the farm stand, reserve harvest goods, or join us at the farm gate. The developer and operator named throughout this document is Budster Harvest, working on behalf of Budster Farm LLC, 980 W 1000 S, Logan - 84321-5415, United States (US). We wrote this policy in plain language so a neighbor can read it in one sitting and understand exactly what happens to personal information at our farm.
1. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to the Budster Harvest website, to the contact form and email links published on that website, and to the personal information we gather when you reserve harvest goods, join a produce box or season share, or visit the farm gate of Budster Farm LLC. It covers information gathered online and information gathered in person at the yard in Logan, Utah when it is stored in the same records that serve our farm stand.
This policy does not cover the practices of other farms, markets or platforms that we might mention or link to. It also does not cover any website that you reach by following a link away from our pages. When you leave our website, the privacy policy of the destination operator applies, and we encourage you to read it before sharing personal information.
By using our website, contacting us, or reserving harvest goods, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If any part of it does not match your expectations, please contact us before continuing to use our services so we can answer your questions directly.
2. Who Controls Your Information
The data controller responsible for your personal information is Budster Farm LLC, a family farm business with its yard and farm stand at 980 W 1000 S, Logan - 84321-5415, United States (US). The developer and operator that maintains the Budster Harvest website is Budster Harvest, acting for Budster Farm LLC. All decisions about how personal information is used at the farm stand rest with Budster Farm LLC.
We are a small, hands-on operation. The same people who plant the rows, gather the eggs and mill the grain also read the messages that arrive through our website. There is no outside marketing department and no data brokerage business attached to our farm. Personal information stays close to the work that created it.
If you have any question about who holds your information or why, you may write to reception@budsterharvest.lat or call +15679077443 and we will explain our records to you in plain language.
3. Information We Collect
We collect two broad kinds of information. The first is information you choose to give us, such as your name and message when you fill in our contact form. The second is limited technical information that arrives automatically when a browser loads our pages, such as the type of device and the pages requested. We do not collect more than we need, and we do not collect sensitive information about your health, beliefs or finances.
The categories of personal information we may hold include your name, your email address, your telephone number if you provide it, the content of your message or order request, the harvest goods you reserve or purchase, and basic technical visit data. In some cases a customer provides a street address so we can arrange a larger order or a delivery, and we hold that address only for as long as the arrangement requires.
We do not ask for payment card numbers on this website. Where payment happens at the farm gate or through a separate arrangement, it is handled directly by the farm and kept apart from the website records described here.
4. Information You Give Us Directly
You give us information directly whenever you complete the contact form, send an email to reception@budsterharvest.lat, call +15679077443, or speak with a member of our crew at the farm gate. The contact form asks for your name, your email address, a subject line and a message. Those fields exist so we can identify you, understand your question and respond to the correct address.
When you reserve a produce box, a sweet corn and melon share, an egg flat or a sack of stone-milled flour, we may record your name, contact details, the goods reserved and the pickup rhythm you prefer. This record lets us pack the right crate on the right morning and hold cooler goods until you arrive. We keep order records because harvest seasons repeat and customers often return with the same request.
You never have to provide more than is needed to answer your question or complete your order. If a field is optional, you may leave it blank. Providing personal information is always your choice, though some requests cannot be fulfilled without a way to reach you.
5. Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, ours receives limited technical information when a browser requests a page. This can include the internet protocol address assigned to your connection, the browser and operating system version, the date and time of the request, the pages you viewed, and the address of the page that referred you to us. This information helps us keep the site working and understand which pages neighbors find useful.
Our website is built as a simple set of static pages with a small script for navigation and accessibility. We do not run advertising trackers, cross site profiling scripts or fingerprinting tools on our pages. The scripts we do load are used to open the mobile menu, reveal sections as you scroll, and prepare an email message from the contact form.
Technical information of this kind is not used to identify you by name. It is reviewed in aggregate to keep the farm stand online and readable for the community that depends on it.
6. How We Use Information
We use personal information to answer your questions, prepare and pack the harvest goods you request, confirm pickups, and improve the way our farm stand serves the community. If you ask about a season share, we use your contact details to tell you when the share opens and when your allotment is ready.
We also use information to keep honest records of our harvest and sales, to plan how much to plant and mill, and to understand which goods neighbors want most. Aggregate planning helps us avoid waste, which matters on a farm where every crate represents real labor and real soil.
Finally, we use information to protect the farm and our customers. This can include confirming the identity of a pickup, resolving a concern about a past order, or keeping a record of a request so that a later conversation is accurate and fair.
7. Our Legal Basis for Processing
Where the law requires us to name a legal basis, we rely on your consent, on the performance of an agreement with you, and on our legitimate interest in running a working family farm. When you send a message through our contact form, you consent to our use of that information to reply. When you reserve harvest goods, we process your details to complete the arrangement you requested.
Our legitimate interests include keeping the farm stand secure, maintaining accurate order and harvest records, planning the growing season, and communicating with the community that buys from us. We balance those interests against your rights and never use them to justify intrusive profiling or the sale of personal information.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time by contacting reception@budsterharvest.lat. Withdrawal does not affect work already completed, such as an order already packed and collected.
10. Farm Updates and Marketing
From time to time we may wish to tell customers about harvest openings, market days or limited goods such as the first sweet corn of the season. We send those updates only when we have a lawful basis to do so, most often because you asked to hear from us or because you are an existing customer of the farm stand.
Every update we send will explain how to stop receiving future messages, and we honor those requests promptly. You can also simply reply to any message and ask us to remove you from the list. We will never sell your contact details to another business or add you to a list you did not request.
If you would rather not receive any updates at all, tell us when you place an order or contact reception@budsterharvest.lat and we will note your preference on your record.
11. How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only for as long as it serves the purpose for which it was gathered. Messages sent through the contact form are kept while we resolve your question and for a reasonable period afterward so that a follow up conversation has context. Order records are kept through the season and for a limited time beyond it, because harvests repeat and customers return with the same requests.
Financial and harvest records may be kept longer where tax or accounting rules require it. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or remove the details that identify you, whichever is practical for our small operation.
If you ask us to delete information that we are not required to keep, we will do so within a reasonable time and confirm the action to you.
12. How We Protect Information
We protect personal information with practical safeguards suited to a family farm. Access is limited to the people who need it to answer your message or prepare your order. Devices and accounts that hold customer records are protected with strong passwords and updated software, and we store paper and digital records in places we control.
No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and we cannot promise absolute protection. What we can promise is diligence: we review how we handle information, we train the people who handle it, and we act quickly if we ever learn of a problem. If a breach were to place you at risk, we would notify you and the relevant authorities as the law requires.
Please help us by keeping your own contact details current and by avoiding sending sensitive information, such as payment card numbers, through ordinary email or our contact form.
13. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may hold rights to access the personal information we keep about you, to correct it if it is wrong, to delete it in some circumstances, to restrict or object to certain uses, and to receive a portable copy of information you provided. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at reception@budsterharvest.lat or call +15679077443. We will ask only for the details we need to confirm your identity, and we will respond within the time required by applicable law. There is no charge for a reasonable request.
If you believe we have handled your information unfairly, you have the right to raise the matter with us first and, where available, to complain to a data protection authority or consumer protection office in your region.
14. Privacy for Children
Our website and farm stand are meant for adults and families, not for children acting alone. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required for independent consent in their jurisdiction. If a child has provided information to us without a parent or guardian, we will remove it once we learn of it.
Parents and guardians are welcome to bring children to farm gate market days and to teach them where food comes from. If you believe a child has sent personal information through our contact form or email, please write to reception@budsterharvest.lat and we will delete the record promptly.
We do not direct advertising at children, and we do not build profiles of young visitors.
15. Third Party Services and Links
Our website may contain links to other sites, such as a mapping service, a dairy we trust, or a community market. When you follow such a link you leave our pages, and the privacy practices of the destination operator apply. We choose our links with care but we cannot control what another operator does with your information.
We may use a small number of service providers to run our farm business, such as email hosting or website hosting. These providers receive only the information needed to do their work and are expected to keep it confidential. We do not allow them to use your information for their own marketing.
If you are concerned about a link or a provider, contact us and we will explain what that third party does and how your information is handled.
16. Data Transfers and Storage Location
Budster Farm LLC operates in the United States, and the information we collect is primarily stored and processed in the United States. If you contact us from another country, you understand that your information will be handled under United States law and under this Privacy Policy.
Where a service provider stores information in another region, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the information remains protected to a standard consistent with this policy. Because we are a small farm, our data footprint is modest and our transfers are limited to what keeps the farm stand running.
If you need details about where a specific record is stored, write to reception@budsterharvest.lat and we will tell you what we can.
17. Accessibility and Language
We want this Privacy Policy to be readable by every neighbor. We use clear headings, plain sentences and strong contrast between text and background so the page works for readers with different needs, including those who use screen readers or larger type. If any part of this policy is hard to read or hard to reach, tell us and we will help.
This policy is published in English. If you need the substance explained in another language, contact us at reception@budsterharvest.lat and a member of the farm will do their best to assist, or arrange for help from someone who can.
We also welcome feedback about the accessibility of our website and our farm stand, because a market that serves the community should be open to the whole community.
18. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our farm stand changes or as the law requires. When we make a material change, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, tell customers through a notice on the website or a message to those who have asked to hear from us.
The version published on this page is always the current version. We encourage you to review it from time to time, especially before reserving harvest goods for a new season. Continuing to use our website after an update means you accept the revised policy.
If you disagree with a change, you may contact us to discuss it, and you may choose to stop using our website and services.
