Cookie Policy

Last updated: 1 June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Lawned Ltd uses cookies and similar technologies on lawned.co.nz and related services. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more broadly.

Introduction

In this policy, “Lawned”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Lawned Ltd. When we say “Platform”, we mean the Lawned online lawn care marketplace, including our website and account areas.

By continuing to use the Platform, you acknowledge that cookies and similar technologies may be used as described in this policy, except where your browser or device settings prevent this or where we are required to obtain your consent.

What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and device identifiers that perform a comparable function.

These technologies help websites remember your preferences, keep you signed in, understand how features are used, and support security and payments. Some cookies are set by Lawned; others are set by third parties that provide services integrated into the Platform.

Cookies may be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (remaining until they expire or you delete them).

How we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Essential cookies

Required for sign-in, session management, security, and core site functionality. Without these, account areas, job posting, offer flows, and checkout may not work correctly.

Payment cookies

Used when you pay for jobs or connect a contractor payout account. Payment providers such as Stripe may set cookies to process transactions securely, prevent fraud, and support Connect onboarding.

Maps and functionality cookies

Property mapping and related tools may use cookies or similar storage from mapping providers to load maps, remember preferences, and support location-based features tied to your property zones.

Analytics and performance cookies

We may use analytics tools to understand how the Platform is used, diagnose errors, and improve performance. Where these cookies are not strictly necessary, we will use them in line with applicable law and any consent requirements.

Marketing cookies

We may use marketing or advertising partners to measure campaign effectiveness or show relevant content. If we introduce optional marketing cookies, we will update this policy and provide appropriate choices where required.

Information collected through cookies

The sort of information collected through cookies and similar technologies may include:

  • device type, browser type, and operating system;
  • date and time of use and pages viewed;
  • referring website or advertisement;
  • IP address and general location derived from it;
  • session identifiers and authentication state;
  • advertising identifiers, where applicable.

We may link this information to other information we collect about you, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Third-party cookies

Third-party services integrated into Lawned — such as authentication, payment, mapping, analytics, and infrastructure providers — may set their own cookies or use similar technologies subject to their policies.

When your information is processed by these providers, it will be managed in accordance with their privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review those policies if you want more detail about their practices.

We do not control third-party cookies and are not responsible for how third parties use information collected through their technologies.

Managing your cookie preferences

Most browsers let you refuse, delete, or limit cookies. Instructions are usually found in your browser's help or privacy settings. You may also be able to block third-party cookies separately from first-party cookies.

Because Lawned relies on essential and session cookies for signed-in use, blocking or deleting those cookies may:

  • sign you out of your account;
  • prevent you from posting jobs, accepting offers, or completing checkout;
  • reset in-progress actions or form data;
  • limit map or payment features.

If we offer a cookie preference tool on the Platform in future, you can use it to manage non-essential cookies where available.

Changes to this Cookie Policy

This document sets out our current Cookie Policy, last updated 1 June 2026. We may review this policy from time to time when our integrations, product features, or legal requirements change. We will post an updated version on our website with a revised date.
