Welcome to familyflavorrecipes.com (the “Site”). This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we employ, and how you can manage them. By accessing or using the Site, you consent to the use of cookies as described below.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, login status, or how you interact with the site. Cookies can be either first‑party (set by the Site you are visiting) or third‑party (set by another domain, such as a social media platform or analytics provider).
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Site to function correctly. They enable basic features such as page navigation, secure login, and the ability to add recipes to your personal collection. Without these cookies, the Site would not operate as intended.
We use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors use the Site. This helps us understand which recipes are most popular, how users navigate the site, and where we can improve the user experience. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized; it does not identify individual users.
The Site includes social sharing buttons for Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook. These third‑party cookies allow you to share content directly from our pages to your social media accounts and enable the platforms to track the effectiveness of their sharing tools.
Preference cookies remember choices you make on the Site, such as your preferred language, measurement units (metric vs. US), or the layout you prefer for viewing recipes. This creates a more personalized experience each time you return.
