Welcome to tastymakerblog’s Privacy Policy
tastymakerblog is all about sharing simple recipes in a warm and welcoming way. We don’t have user accounts and we never collect your personal info directly. That means your data isn’t ever sold or given away.
However, there are some third-party tools we use (like for visitor stats, personalized ads, or embedded videos) that may collect certain data automatically. This privacy policy is here to clearly explain how that works, why it happens, and what tastymakerblog does to keep your privacy safe while browsing our site.
Third-party tools at tastymakerblog
To keep tastymakerblog running smoothly and ensure recipes stay free, we rely on outside service providers. They help us figure out how people use the site, fund our content with ads, and offer embedded video recipes. Here’s a look at the key third-party tools we use:
- Cloudflare Analytics: tastymakerblog uses Cloudflare to check site speed and visitor numbers. This tool tracks some info (like IP addresses and browsing stats) but it’s all grouped together — it never identifies you. Plus, Cloudflare doesn’t use tracking cookies for people.
- Google AdSense: This platform puts ads on tastymakerblog to help support our site and keep content open for everyone. To do this, AdSense might use cookies to show you ads based on what you’re interested in. tastymakerblog never sees the personal details Google might use for this. For more on how they handle data, you can visit Google’s privacy policy.
- YouTube: On certain pages, we embed YouTube videos (owned by Google) to show recipes. When you watch one, YouTube/Google cookies might track views and usage. If you’re signed into Google, viewing could be linked to your profile, but tastymakerblog never has access to that info. You can always check YouTube/Google’s privacy policy if you want to know more.
- Google Analytics: tastymakerblog uses Google Analytics to see which recipes people love and how the site is used. It gathers visitor data like which pages you check out or how long you stay — but without tying it to your name or identity. Cookies may be used for this, but nothing ever pinpoints you personally.
Cookies on tastymakerblog
Cookies are tiny files kept on your device whenever you visit a site. tastymakerblog and its partners use cookies to make your time here better:
- Essential cookies: These make sure tastymakerblog works right — like saving your language setting or your consent choices. Without them, some features just won’t work.
- Analytics cookies: Used by tastymakerblog’s Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics to track how the site’s used, what’s working, and what needs improvement. This info is always bundled and anonymous, aimed at making tastymakerblog’s recipes better and faster.
- Ad cookies: AdSense uses these to deliver ads based on your interests or how you use the web. That means you’re more likely to see ads that matter to you.
By browsing tastymakerblog, you agree to our cookie use as described above. If you want, you can manage or remove cookies at any time in your browser settings. Most browsers let you block, delete, or get alerts for cookies. Just note: turning off cookies might change how tastymakerblog and other sites work for you.
If we update our policy
This privacy policy can change from time to time. tastymakerblog might update it to reflect new requirements, additional tools, or to stay in line with legal regulations. When major updates happen, we’ll make it obvious on the site — maybe through a home page note or a special banner.
Check the date at the top of the page to see the latest version. We recommend stopping by this policy now and then to keep current on tastymakerblog’s privacy practices.
