General Introduction
therecipepath is your go-to spot for recipes, focused on friendliness and keeping things simple. We don't require anyone to register, and we never directly gather your personal info. That means your details aren't being sold or shared.
Still, we want to be upfront about the bits of data that might be picked up automatically when using third-party providers (think analytics tracking, sponsored content, and video players). This privacy policy breaks down what’s happening in plain language—how we handle your info and look after your privacy on therecipepath.
Third-party services used
To make sure therecipepath runs smoothly—and keep access to recipes free—we do rely on some outside partners. They support us with analytics, advertising, and enriching the site with media. Here’s a look at the services we work with:
- Google Analytics: This analytics tool from Google helps us get an overview of site usage like what recipes are trending or how long people stay around. It gathers anonymous info—such as which pages folks view and for how long—using cookies, but therecipepath doesn’t see anything personal about you.
- Google AdSense: With Google’s ad platform, we can show ads to help offset the costs of running therecipepath. AdSense may set cookies to tailor advertising to your interests, but therecipepath never sees or accesses your personal ad data. If you want more details, check Google’s privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare gives us website performance stats. It keeps your personal identity hidden and doesn’t use cookies to track individuals. Info like your IP address and browsing is grouped together and can't be used to single you out. This service helps us keep therecipepath running quickly and fix any hiccups if they pop up.
- YouTube: Sometimes, we include step-by-step videos hosted by YouTube (also part of Google). Playing a video on therecipepath may prompt YouTube/Google cookies for things like view counts and video performance. If you’re signed in to your Google account, YouTube could link the view to your personal profile, but therecipepath doesn’t access this data. For privacy specifics, see YouTube/Google’s policy.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are tiny text files saved on your device during your time at therecipepath. Therecipepath and our partners use them to enhance how you interact with the site:
- Functional cookies: Super important for basic site features (like remembering your language setting or the consent options you chose). Some parts of therecipepath might stop working right without these.
- Advertising cookies: Used by Google AdSense so ads are more relevant. These cookies help track general interests or browsing patterns to display better ads.
- Analytics cookies: Let Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics gather site stats and trends for us. All this info is blended together, helping therecipepath figure out how recipes are used and how to keep the site running its best.
By browsing therecipepath, you agree to the cookie usage mentioned above. You can handle cookies or erase them in your own browser’s settings. Most major browsers let you adjust these options or give you a heads-up before cookies show up. If you decide to turn cookies off, it might make therecipepath or even other websites act up a bit.
