General Introduction
homecookledger is your destination for easy, friendly recipe inspiration. We don’t have user logins and we don’t gather your personal details directly. That means your private info isn’t bought, sold, or traded—ever.
Even so, we use a few outside tools to make homecookledger.com better for you. Things like analytics, targeted ads, and video players may automatically collect data, but we think it’s important you know what’s happening behind the scenes. This privacy policy breaks down what gets collected by those third-party services, plus how we keep your info and privacy safe as you browse homecookledger.
Third-party services used
To keep homecookledger.com running smoothly and let you access recipes for free, we rely on several third-party services. They’re there to track site performance, support our content with ads, and embed videos that make cooking simpler. Check out the main tools we use below:
- YouTube: Every now and then, we embed helpful recipe clips from YouTube (Google's video service). Viewing these videos on homecookledger.com means YouTube or Google cookies might collect stats, like how many times a video gets watched. If you're signed into Google, your views could tie to your Google account, but homecookledger can’t see or use that data. More info on this is in YouTube and Google's privacy policies.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare lets us keep an eye on site speed and visitor trends, all without tracking you personally via cookies. The info collected, such as your IP address or surfing behavior, is combined with other data and never singles you out. That way, we spot site hiccups and stay fast and reliable.
- Google AdSense: Google’s advertising system gives us a way to display ads that help fund homecookledger.com while keeping recipes free for you. AdSense may use cookies to personalize ads based on your activity. We can’t see or access the personal details Google uses for this. If you’d like, you can visit Google’s privacy policy for extra clarity.
- Google Analytics: Google Analytics helps us see what folks are enjoying on our site. It collects anonymous info about your journey—such as what you visit and how long you stay. This helps us tweak and improve our content. While cookies might be set, homecookledger never gets data that identifies you as an individual.
