Cookie Policy

1. Strictly necessary technologies

• The PHP session cookie supports security and temporary website functions and normally expires when the browser session ends.
• Security and load-balancing technologies may be used by the hosting provider and Cloudflare to protect the website.
• A consent record may be stored so the website and Google’s certified consent platform can remember your choice.

2. Requested functional storage

• The language preference is stored for up to one year after you actively choose a language.
• My Cookbook stores selected recipe IDs in this browser after you press Save. It remains until you remove recipes or clear browser data.
• A measurement-unit preference is stored after you choose Metric or US units.
• Recently viewed recipes may store up to 24 recipe IDs only when optional device-storage consent is available. You can clear the list from My Cookbook.

3. Analytics

Google Analytics may be used to understand general website use, such as page visits, device type and interaction patterns. Analytics storage is denied by default and is enabled only after consent. Exact cookie names and lifetimes can change when Google updates its services.

4. Advertising

Google AdSense may display and measure advertisements after the site is approved. In the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, advertising consent is managed through a Google-certified consent management platform. Depending on your choice, ads may be personalised, non-personalised or limited.

5. Managing your choice

Use the Privacy & cookie choices link in the footer to review or withdraw consent. You can also remove cookies and local storage through your browser. Refusing optional technologies does not block access to ordinary recipe pages, but some convenience features may be unavailable.

6. Third-party information

Google, Cloudflare and linked recipe-source websites publish their own privacy and cookie information. Their technologies and retention periods may change independently of Pick My Meal Today.
