This Cookie Policy explains how Yum Recipes (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.yum-recipes.com (the “Site”), why we use them, and how users can control their preferences.

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on a device when visiting a website, enabling features like basic functionality, remembering preferences, analytics, and advertising. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, SDKs, and local storage.

Why we use cookies

  • Improve navigation: remember preferences and make the Site easier to use.
  • Analyze traffic: understand how content is used to improve performance and features.
  • Personalize content: tailor recommendations and on‑site experiences.
  • Measure marketing: assess the effectiveness of campaigns and promotions.

Types of cookies we use

  • Essential (required): necessary for core functionality such as page navigation, security, and form submissions. These cannot be switched off and typically do not require consent.
  • Performance and analytics: help measure traffic and usage (for example, page views, time on page) so we can improve the Site.
  • Functional: remember settings like language, region, and display preferences.
  • Advertising and targeting: deliver more relevant ads and limit repeated exposure; may be set by us or our partners to build a profile of interests.

Examples of third‑party tools

Depending on configuration, the Site may use:

  • Analytics: Google Analytics (traffic and performance).
  • Advertising: Google Ads, Meta Ads (targeting and measurement).
  • Social and engagement: Pinterest, Instagram (social features, embedded content). These services place cookies under their own policies. Review their notices for details and opt‑outs.

Your choices and consent

  • Consent banner: on first visit (and periodically thereafter), a banner allows accepting, rejecting, or customizing non‑essential cookies. Preferences can be changed anytime via a Manage Cookies link in the footer.
  • Browser settings: most browsers allow blocking or deleting cookies. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

How to manage cookies in your browser

  • Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data.
  • Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.
  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Block all cookies.
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions.

Cookie duration

  • Essential cookies: typically expire at the end of the session or within a short functional period.
  • Analytics and advertising cookies: generally persist between 6 and 13 months, depending on the provider and purpose. After expiry, cookies are removed automatically by the browser.

Do Not Track and GPC

Certain browsers support Global Privacy Control (GPC) or Do Not Track signals. When applicable and technically feasible, these signals are treated as opt‑out requests for advertising/targeting where required by law.

Updates to this policy

This policy may be updated to reflect changes in laws, technologies, or our services. The “Last updated” date indicates the most recent revision. Material changes may be communicated through the Site.

Contact

Questions about this Cookie Policy or cookie preferences can be sent to: contact@yum-recipes.com . If the audience includes EU/UK residents, consider adding a dedicated privacy contact and detailing consent management provider information.

Implementation tips

  • Add a visible Manage Cookies link in the footer to reopen the preference center at any time.
  • Maintain an inventory of cookies (name, provider, category, purpose, duration) and publish a table within this page or the consent manager.
  • If using cross‑context behavioral advertising for US users, include a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link and respect opt‑out signals.
  • For EU/UK visitors, block non‑essential cookies until consent and log consent states (timestamp, categories).
  • Review and refresh this policy at least annually or upon adding/removing major third‑party tools.
