Privacy Policy

This page was last updated July 13, 2025. plateofcomfort doesn’t require accounts and doesn’t directly collect your data—but does use cookies and outside services to enhance your experience.

General Introduction

plateofcomfort is all about easy, joyful cooking. We don’t require sign-ups and never directly gather any of your private data. That means none of your personal details are sold or shared—ever.

Still, there are a few ways certain information might be automatically captured through outside services that help us enhance your visit—like seeing what pages are most loved, serving up videos, or showing relevant ads. This privacy page explains how that process works and what plateofcomfort does to keep your info safe every time you stop by.

Third-party services used

To keep plateofcomfort running smoothly and recipes accessible to everyone, we lean on a few third-party tools. These partners let us track site performance, offer free content, and give our pages a little extra flavor with videos. Here are the main services used across plateofcomfort:

  • Google Analytics: This tool, from Google, gives us overall stats about popular recipes and how folks use plateofcomfort. It might set cookies to better understand traffic and time spent, but none of the info identifies you personally. Everything stays anonymous.
  • Google AdSense: Ads from Google appear here and help fund our content. AdSense uses cookies to suggest ads you might like based on your browsing. plateofcomfort never sees the personal data that Google uses for customizing ads. If you want specifics, you can always check Google’s privacy details.
  • Cloudflare Analytics: Brought to you by Cloudflare, this tool helps monitor site speed and issues, with zero cookies linked to you directly. It checks for any hiccups and ensures everything’s speedy and secure. Only bulk data, like IP or navigation info, is collected—never anything that singles you out.
  • YouTube: Sometimes, we embed recipe videos straight from YouTube (part of Google). When you click play, YouTube or Google may drop cookies to log that view or keep track of stats like total plays. If you’re already logged into a Google account, your views might connect to your profile—though plateofcomfort doesn’t get access to any of that. See YouTube/Google's policies for more details.

Cookies and consent

Cookies are tiny data files placed on your device when you browse a site. On plateofcomfort and through partner services, cookies help make your time here seamless and personal:

  • Functional cookies: Absolutely necessary for running the website, like saving your language selection or remembering if you’ve agreed to the privacy pop-up. Some site features may not work right without them.
  • Analytics cookies: Plateofcomfort makes use of Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics cookies to gather info about site traffic. This all gets grouped together, which helps us spot trends and see how visitors use the site—so we can keep making things better.
  • Advertising cookies: These are powered by Google AdSense and let tailored ads be shown on plateofcomfort. They note your preferences or pages you visit to select ads you may find relevant.

By browsing plateofcomfort, you agree to the cookie use explained above. You’re always in control: set your web browser to block, delete, or alert you about cookies. Just know, turning cookies off might impact how plateofcomfort (and some other websites) function for you.
