This Cookie Policy explains how QuicheRecipe.com (the "Site") uses cookies and similar technologies. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal data more broadly.
1. What Cookies Are
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your browser or device when you visit it. The cookie lets the site (or a third party operating on it) remember things about your visit — for example, whether you have already seen a notice, which pages you have viewed, or which ads you have been shown.
"Similar technologies" include local storage, pixels, web beacons, and SDKs that fulfil comparable purposes. When this policy refers to cookies it includes those technologies.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function. They support core features such as remembering your cookie or privacy preferences. They do not track you across websites and cannot be switched off from our side, although you can always block or delete them through your browser settings.
2.2 Analytics Cookies — Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics (measurement ID: G-6MQR5F4S8C) to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. Analytics cookies record things like the pages you visit, the links you click, your general location (country or city level), your device type, and where you arrived from. IP addresses are anonymised by default.
You can opt out of Google Analytics across all sites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by blocking analytics cookies through your browser settings.
2.3 Advertising Cookies — Google AdSense and Third-Party Vendors
QuicheRecipe.com is supported by display advertising served through Google AdSense and may involve third-party ad-technology vendors. These advertising cookies help those services:
- Choose which ads to show you (personalised or non-personalised)
- Measure ad performance, frequency, and reach
- Detect and prevent ad fraud
Google and its partners may combine the information collected here with information they collect on other sites and apps to personalise ads, unless you opt out. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect or receive information from this site and elsewhere on the Internet.
For how Google handles this data, see Google's partner-sites policy.
2.4 Social / Embed Cookies — Pinterest Save Buttons
Some pages have "Save to Pinterest" buttons. When you click one, Pinterest may set cookies on your device. Those cookies are controlled by Pinterest under its own privacy policy.
3. How to Manage Cookies
3.1 Browser Settings
Every major browser lets you view, block, and delete cookies. The exact steps differ by browser:
Blocking all cookies may break certain Site features, but essential pages such as recipes and guides will still load.
3.2 Opting Out of Personalised Advertising
You can opt out of personalised advertising in several ways, independently of cookie settings in your browser:
- Google Ad Settings: google.com/settings/ads — control whether Google personalises ads you see across its services and ad network.
- Digital Advertising Alliance (US): www.aboutads.info — opt out of participating third-party vendors in the US.
- Your Online Choices (EU): www.youronlinechoices.eu — opt out of participating third-party vendors in Europe.
- Network Advertising Initiative: optout.networkadvertising.org — opt out across NAI member companies.
Opting out of personalised advertising does not stop ads appearing — you will still see ads, but they will be less tailored to your interests.
3.3 Mobile Devices
On iOS and Android you can also limit ad tracking at the device level. iOS users can use App Tracking Transparency; Android users can reset their advertising ID and disable personalised ads in Google settings.
4. Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is no universal standard for how websites should respond. QuicheRecipe.com does not currently respond to DNT signals, but the controls described above give you equivalent or stronger opt-out options.
5. Changes to This Policy
As our use of cookies evolves (for example, if we add or remove a third-party service), we will update this policy and change the "Last Updated" date at the top of the page. For material changes we will flag the update at the top of the page for a reasonable period so returning visitors notice it.
6. Contact
Questions about cookies or this policy can be sent to [email protected].
