What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They help websites function, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use the site. We also use related technologies (such as local storage, pixels, and tags); together we call these “cookies.”

How we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • Operate core site features (e.g., navigation, comment forms, print-friendly recipe cards).
  • Remember your preferences (e.g., consent choices).
  • Measure site performance and improve content.
  • Optionally support advertising or affiliate tracking (if enabled).

Types of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary

Required for the website to function (e.g., security, load balancing, consent storage). These cannot be turned off via our banner.

Functional

Enhance features like saving preferences or improving accessibility. If disabled, some convenience features may not work.

Analytics/Performance

Help us understand traffic patterns (pages viewed, device types). We analyze aggregate trends to improve the site.

Advertising/Affiliate

Measure ad performance or attribute affiliate referrals. These are optional and require your consent where applicable.

Cookies can be session (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent (kept until they expire or you delete them).

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties that provide services to our site (e.g., analytics, embedded media, email delivery, anti-spam). Embedded content (such as videos or social posts) may allow the third party to set its own cookies according to its policies.

  • Consent banner: When you first visit, you may see a cookie banner. Use it to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can revisit your choices anytime via the site’s Manage Cookies or Cookie Settings link if available.
  • Browser controls: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies and set preferences per site. See your browser’s Help for instructions.
  • Do Not Track (DNT) & Global Privacy Control (GPC): Where feasible, we honor browser signals like GPC to treat your visit as an opt-out of certain tracking/“sharing” for advertising.

Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

Advertising & affiliate disclosure

We may include display ads or affiliate links to products we recommend. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Advertising and affiliate partners may set cookies to measure impressions and conversions, subject to your consent where required.

California (CPRA/CCPA)

We do not sell personal information. If we use advertising technologies that may be considered “sharing,” you can opt out via cookie settings or by sending a request to [email protected]. We will also honor GPC where feasible.

  • Change your browser settings to block or delete cookies, or to prompt before storing cookies.
