Cookie notice
Last updated: August 24, 2026
Everything Crochet 3D stores on your device, why it is there, and how long it stays. This page is generated from the same list the site loads from, so it is always current.
Strictly necessary
Needed for the site to work at all: signing in, staying signed in, bot protection on the forms, and remembering this very choice.

Remembers your privacy choices so we do not have to ask again on every page, and records when you made them.

|---|---|---|---|
| crochet.consent.v1 | Cookie | 12 months | Your category choices, so the server side can read them too. |
| crochet.consent.v1 | Local storage | until you clear site data | The same record, kept in sync across your open tabs. |
Sign-in session (Supabase)
Provider: Supabase, Inc. — United States (database hosted in Canada) · Supabase, Inc. privacy policy
Keeps you signed in between page loads. Set only after you sign in or create an account.

Cloudflare (hosting, bot protection, Turnstile)
Provider: Cloudflare, Inc. — United States · Cloudflare, Inc. privacy policy
Serves the site and separates people from bots on the sign-in and sign-up forms. Without it the forms cannot be submitted.

Remembers things you set: your language and stitch terminology, patterns saved to this browser, and gallery likes.
Editor and site preferences
Provider: Crochet 3D — Stored in your browser only — never sent to us
Remembers your language and stitch terminology, the patterns you saved locally, and the patterns you shared into the gallery from this browser. This stays in your browser; switching it off means re-picking those every visit.
| Name | Type | Kept for | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| crochet.termLang.v1 | Local storage | until you clear site data | UI language and US/UK stitch terminology. |
| crochet.savedPatterns.v1 | Local storage | until you delete them | Patterns saved into this browser by earlier visits, before the planner saved to your account. |

Analytics
Aggregated statistics about which pages and features get used, so we know what to improve. Never used to identify you.
Google Analytics 4
Provider: Google LLC — United States · Google LLC privacy policy
Counts visits and shows which pages and features are used, so we know what to improve. Aggregated statistics — we do not use it to identify you.
If you decline analytics, this still loads but runs in a cookieless mode: it stores nothing on your device, sets no identifier, and sends only an anonymous signal that a page was viewed. Turning it off entirely is a browser-level choice — an ad or tracker blocker will stop it.
| Name | Type | Kept for | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Cookie | 13 months | Distinguishes one browser from another so repeat visits are not counted as new people. |
| _ga_<container-id> | Cookie | 13 months | Keeps session state for this property. |
