General Introduction
Cooking with Nadine is your go-to spot for easy and friendly recipe inspiration. We don't use user accounts, which means we're not gathering any personal details from you ourselves. As a result, nothing about you gets shared or sold here.
That said, we're here to help you understand how some info can be automatically picked up by third-party tools we use to boost your experience—like tracking visitors, showing tailored ads, or embedding videos. This privacy policy is crafted to explain these methods in plain terms and detail how Cooking with Nadine safeguards your privacy any time you visit cookingwithnadine.com.
Third-party services used
We rely on several external platforms to keep Cooking with Nadine free for visitors and running smoothly. These third parties let us study site activity, display advertising to fund the content, and spruce up our pages with embedded videos. Here are the key third-party services on cookingwithnadine.com:
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare provides traffic analysis so we can check how well our site works. It doesn't set cookies to identify you personally. By reviewing aggregated info like your IP and browsing activity, we swiftly fix any performance hiccups and keep the site fast and safe.
- Google AdSense: This Google service runs ads across Cooking with Nadine and helps us sustain free recipes. AdSense uses cookies to show advertisements tailored to your interests. We can't see or access any personal data that Google uses for ad targeting. Curious for more info? You can check Google’s privacy policy.
- YouTube: Sometimes, we embed cooking videos from YouTube, also owned by Google. Watching these on Cooking with Nadine will set certain YouTube or Google cookies to track views and performance stats. If you’re signed into your Google account, YouTube may link viewings to your profile. Cooking with Nadine never receives this data. To dig deeper, you can read YouTube’s privacy info.
- Google Analytics: This tool from Google analyzes audience numbers and activity on our site. It collects anonymized data about what pages you visit and how long you stay, helping us see which recipes work best and what to improve. Google Analytics may place cookies to track this info, but nothing identifiable gets shared with Cooking with Nadine.
