What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They enable the site to remember your actions and preferences (such as login details, language, and display settings) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them each time you visit.

In addition to traditional cookies, we may also use web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage to collect information about how you interact with our site.

Types of Cookies We Use

1. Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)

These cookies are required for the basic functioning of ChefStyleRecipes. They enable core features such as:

• Navigating between pages
• Keeping you logged in (if you have an account)
• Remembering your language and region preferences
• Ensuring security and preventing fraud

Without these cookies, many parts of the website would not work correctly, and you would be unable to use essential services.

2. Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our content. These cookies collect aggregated, non‑identifiable data such as:

• Number of visitors and page views
• Pages visited, time spent on each page, and bounce rates
• Referral sources (e.g., search engines, social media, direct traffic)
• Device and browser information

Analytics cookies help us improve the site’s performance, content relevance, and overall user experience. The data is stored anonymously and never shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Social Media Cookies (Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook)

When you interact with our social media share buttons or follow us via Pinterest, Instagram, or Facebook, we place cookies that allow those platforms to:

• Track the content you share
• Measure the effectiveness of social media campaigns
• Personalise ads you may see on those platforms

These cookies are set by the respective social networks, not by ChefStyleRecipes, and are subject to each platform’s own privacy policies.

4. Preference Cookies

Preference cookies remember choices you make on the site so that we can provide a more personalised experience. They may store information such as:

• Your preferred recipe categories (e.g., vegan, gluten‑free)
• Display settings like font size or colour scheme
• Search filters you frequently use

These cookies are optional and can be disabled without affecting the core functionality of the website.

How Long Do Cookies Stay on Your Device?

Cookie lifespans vary:

• Session cookies: Deleted automatically when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a set period (from a few days up to two years) unless you delete them manually.
