Strictly necessary cookies support essential website functions and security. The website may not function properly without them.
These cookies may be used to:

Maintain website and form security

Detect or prevent spam and malicious activity

These cookies may be used to remember:
-
Display or accessibility preferences
-
Previously selected form options
-
General location or language preferences

Advertising and Marketing Cookies
If Koster Irrigation uses digital advertising or remarketing services, advertising cookies may help:

Determine whether an advertisement led to a website visit

Website Forms
Our website includes contact forms, service-request forms, and similar submission features.
Cookies or temporary session technologies may be used when you interact with a form to:

Verify that a submission comes from a legitimate visitor

Maintain information during the submission process

Prevent duplicate submissions
-
Remember limited information during the current session

Support security and troubleshooting
Information you enter into a form—such as your name, email address, telephone number, property address, company name, requested service, or message—is information you voluntarily submit. It is not treated as cookie data merely because it was entered through the website.
The collection and use of information submitted through forms is explained in our Privacy Policy.
Please do not submit sensitive or confidential information through a website form unless Koster Irrigation specifically requests it.
Spam and Security Protection
Forms and other website features may use automated security or spam-prevention services. These services may evaluate technical information such as:
-
Internet Protocol address
-
Browser and device information
-
Time spent on a page
-
Mouse or keyboard interactions
-
Form-submission patterns
-
Referring page
-
Other signals used to distinguish legitimate visitors from automated activity
A security provider may place or access cookies as part of this process. Information collected by that provider may be handled according to its own privacy policy.

Koster Irrigation does not directly control cookies placed by third parties. Their use of information is governed by their respective privacy policies and cookie practices.
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are placed by or on behalf of the Koster Irrigation website.
Third-party cookies are placed by an outside service that provides website functionality, analytics, security, embedded content, advertising, or another service.
Third-party cookie availability and duration are determined by the applicable provider and may change without notice.
Session and Persistent Cookies
Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser. They may be used to maintain security or temporary website functions during a visit.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They may be used to remember preferences, consent selections, or website usage information between visits.
Cookie duration depends on the cookie’s purpose and the provider responsible for it.
Your Cookie Choices
When a cookie-preference tool is available, you may use it to accept, reject, or manage categories of nonessential cookies.

-
Review stored cookies

Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers and devices provide privacy signals or tracking-preference settings.
Our ability to recognize or respond to these signals may depend on the technologies, consent tools, and service providers used by the website. Where applicable law requires recognition of a supported opt-out preference signal, we will make reasonable efforts to honor it.
Do We Sell Cookie Information?
Koster Irrigation does not sell personal information for money.
If our website practices change in a way that constitutes selling or sharing personal information for targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising under an applicable privacy law, we will update our disclosures and provide any legally required opt-out method.
