What are cookies?
Cookies are small files stored in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, tracking pixels and scripts that send information about a visit. Some support functions you request; others measure usage. A third-party script can transmit technical data even without setting a cookie.
Technologies used on this site
WordPress.com and Jetpack: Hosting, security, subscriptions, comments and account-related functions are supplied by Automattic. Session or authentication technologies can apply when you log in or interact with these services. Their names and expiry depend on the service and whether you are signed in; not every visitor receives every cookie.
Comment preferences: If you choose to save your details in the comment form, WordPress/Jetpack can use comment_author_*, comment_author_email_* and comment_author_url_* to remember them. Jetpack documents a duration of 30,000,000 seconds (approximately 347 days) for these cookies. The actual expiry is available in your browser.
Subscription preferences: Jetpack can use jetpack_blog_subscribe_* and jetpack_comments_subscribe_* after interaction to remember subscription checkbox choices. Jetpack documents a duration of approximately 347 days. Subscription records held on the server are separate from browser cookies.
Google Analytics: A Google Analytics tag (measurement ID G-CYG00RSEL4) is present on the site. Google Analytics can use _ga and _ga_* to distinguish browsers and maintain session information for usage statistics. Google documents a default duration of two years; settings and browser restrictions may shorten this. The provider is Google Ireland Limited and, where relevant, other Google entities.
Jetpack Stats: A Jetpack statistics script is present to measure visits and link interactions. Automattic processes technical and usage information; cookies or other identifiers depend on its configuration and the visitor’s account state. See Automattic’s cookie policy for applicable cookie names and purposes.
Spam protection and avatars: Akismet screens comment submissions and Gravatar supplies avatars. Requests to these Automattic services can disclose IP address and browser information. Signing into WordPress.com or interacting with external services may involve additional cookies governed by their own notices.
Consent and control
Strictly necessary technologies can be used to provide a service you request. Other cookies or tracking that require consent must wait for that consent. Saving comment details is optional: leave the corresponding checkbox unticked if you do not want those details remembered. Declining optional tracking should not prevent you from reading recipes.
If a cookie-preference control is displayed, use it to accept, reject or change optional choices. You can also inspect, block and delete cookies in your browser’s privacy settings, including per-site controls. Blocking all cookies can affect sign-in and other requested functions. Clearing a cookie does not delete subscription or comment records held on the server.
Google provides an Analytics opt-out browser add-on. This is an additional visitor control, not a substitute for any prior consent the site is required to obtain. To stop recipe emails, use the unsubscribe link in an email.
Providers, transfers and updates
For more detail, see Jetpack’s cookie documentation, Automattic’s cookie policy and Google’s cookie information. These providers may process data outside the EEA; the Privacy Policy explains international processing and your rights. Cookies can change when services are updated, so this policy will be reviewed when the site’s tools change.
