General Introduction
dishcraftly is all about sharing recipes in a friendly and straightforward way. We don't offer user accounts and never gather your personal info directly. That means we're not selling or sharing any personal details about you.
Still, we'd like to let you know that some info might get collected automatically by third-party tools that help make your experience better—like showing videos, tracking site visits, or showing you relevant ads. This privacy policy walks you through how that works and the steps dishcraftly takes to protect your privacy while you browse.
Third-party services we rely on
To keep dishcraftly running smoothly—and ensure you get access to our recipes for free—we rely on several external service providers. These platforms help us understand what you enjoy, support our content with ads, and let us share video content right on the site. Here are some of the main services dishcraftly uses:
- Google Analytics: A web analytics tool by Google. It gathers anonymous stats on visits (like which dishes get viewed most and how long people stay). It uses cookies for this, but dishcraftly never gets your personal details from it.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Provided by Cloudflare, this monitors site traffic and performance. It doesn’t use cookies to personally track you. The info collected, like your IP or browsing patterns, stays aggregated so you can’t be identified individually. It helps us keep dishcraftly secure and responsive.
- YouTube: Sometimes we add recipe videos via YouTube (which belongs to Google). If you press play on a YouTube video at dishcraftly, cookies from YouTube/Google may keep track of video views or playback stats. When you’re logged in to Google, YouTube could link your activity to your profile. However, dishcraftly doesn’t access this information. To learn more, check YouTube/Google’s privacy policy.
- Google AdSense: Google’s ad service displays ads on dishcraftly, helping keep our content free. AdSense might use cookies to pick which ads appear, based on your activity. dishcraftly never gets any personal ad data. If you’d like details, you can check Google’s privacy rules.
Cookies and how we handle consent
Cookies are tiny text files that get saved on your device whenever you land on a website. dishcraftly, along with third-party partners, uses cookies to make your experience better:
- Advertising cookies: Google AdSense relies on these to show you ads that might match your interests or recent browsing.
- Analytics cookies: These are set by Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics to learn how people use dishcraftly. The results are grouped together, helping us spot trends and improve our content and site speed.
- Functional cookies: Without these, the site wouldn’t work smoothly (like remembering what language you picked or if you agreed to cookies). Some site features may not work if you block functional cookies.
By sticking around on dishcraftly, you accept our cookies as outlined above. Want to manage or remove cookies? Just head to your browser's settings—most let you turn off, delete, or get alerts for new cookies. Keep in mind that blocking cookies could change how dishcraftly and other sites work for you.
Policy changes
This privacy policy isn’t set in stone. We might change it if our practices evolve, we add new services, or to meet new legal rules. Whenever there’s a major update, dishcraftly will make it clear for you right on the site—for example, a pop-up or site-wide message.
If you spot a changed date at the top, that shows when the latest update happened. We recommend checking back every so often so you’re always in the know about how dishcraftly handles your data.
