Cookie policy
Last updated: 13 June 2026
This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies we use on backendflowagency.com, why we use them, and how to change your choice. It should be read together with our privacy policy.
1. What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file that a site stores in your browser. It lets the site remember things between visits — from your signed-in session to the language you prefer. Some are essential for the site to work; some are optional and only set with your consent.
2. The kinds of storage we use
We distinguish between strictly necessary cookies (which don\'t require consent under EU law) and optional ones (which do).
3. Strictly necessary cookies
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
bfa_sid | BackendFlowAgency | Maintain your session and protect against CSRF | Session (until you close the browser) |
bfa_lang | BackendFlowAgency | Remember your preferred language (EN / ES) | 1 year |
__stripe_mid, __stripe_sid | Stripe Payments Europe | Fraud prevention during checkout | 1 year / 30 minutes |
These are required. Without them you can\'t maintain a session, switch language, or complete a payment. No prior consent is required.
4. Browser local storage
When you accept or decline optional cookies, we record your choice in your browser\'s local storage (the key bfa_cookie_consent_v1). That stops the banner reappearing every time you visit. The key remains until you clear browser data or use the "decline" button on this page.
5. Optional analytics
If you accept, we set one anonymised analytics cookie to understand which pages are read most and how people move between field-notes posts. We don\'t sell data. We don\'t identify individuals. If you decline, this cookie isn\'t set.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
_bfa_anon | BackendFlowAgency | Aggregate, anonymised metrics (bounce, navigation, no IPs) | 13 months |
6. Changing your choice
You can change your mind any time:
- Click the button below to clear your previous choice and see the banner again.
- Or from your browser: Settings → Privacy → Clear cookies and site data for backendflowagency.com.
7. How to decline all optional cookies
Click "Decline" in the banner, or any time via the button above. Strictly necessary cookies will remain active because the site depends on them.
8. Changes to this policy
If we add or remove cookies, we update this page and change the "last updated" date. Active users will be re-prompted for consent if we add a new optional cookie.
