General Introduction
cozycanteen is your go-to spot for easy-to-follow recipes and a relaxed kitchen vibe. We don’t use user accounts and won’t request your personal info. As a result, cozycanteen never shares or sells details about you.
Still, we want to be straight with you about what happens in the background. Some data might get picked up by outside tools we rely on, like for analytics, ads, or playing videos. This privacy notice breaks down what info might be collected through those services, plus how cozycanteen helps keep your privacy in check during your visit.
Third-party services used
cozycanteen works with different external partners to make sure the site stays free, runs smoothly, and is loaded with great recipes and videos. Here’s a list—shuffled—for what third-party services we use:
- YouTube: At times, cozycanteen embeds cooking videos hosted on YouTube, part of Google's group. Watching these clips on cozycanteen may drop YouTube/Google cookies on your device, which track view counts and playback stats. If you’re signed into a Google account, YouTube might link what you watch with your user profile, though cozycanteen can't see any of that personal info. For more, check Google or YouTube’s privacy info.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare helps cozycanteen keep things quick and stable, and offers traffic insight without cookies that reveal your identity. We rely on this data (like IP address or visit patterns) to spot problems and boost the site's security and speed. All stats are aggregated and aren’t traced back to individuals.
- Google AdSense: AdSense brings advertising to cozycanteen so we can keep sharing recipes without charging you. This means you’ll see ads that might be relevant to your interests, as AdSense uses cookies for ad targeting. cozycanteen never gets to see your private ad data. Read Google’s privacy policy for details on what their system tracks.
- Google Analytics: This tool shows cozycanteen how visitors interact with the site—like which recipes get the most traffic or how long people hang around. The stats are anonymous. Google Analytics does use cookies, but cozycanteen doesn’t know who you are personally.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are tiny bits of data stored on your device whenever you browse a website. cozycanteen—and some of our partners—use cookies for a smoother, more personalized visit:
- Analytics cookies: Power tools like Cloudflare Analytics and Google Analytics. These help us track general site usage, see what works, and fine-tune cozycanteen for you. They only store overall trends, not individual user data.
- Advertising cookies: Set by Google AdSense, these make ads more relevant to your browsing. They keep track of your interests or viewing habits to show you tailored ads on cozycanteen.
- Functional cookies: Make sure cozycanteen loads in your preferred language or remembers your consent whenever you drop by again. Without these, some features just won’t work right.
When you keep using cozycanteen, you accept that cookies (as listed above) might be set. It’s easy to delete or block cookies anytime through your browser settings. Most browsers let you control or clear cookies, or get notified before one’s set. Keep in mind that blocking all cookies may change how cozycanteen (and other websites) work for you.
