This Cookie Policy explains how Pocket Friendly Recipes (pocketfriendlyrecipes.com), operated by Maj Media Ltd, uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help a site work, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. Some are set by us (“first-party”) and some by third parties whose services we use.

The Cookies We Use

Strictly necessary: needed for the Site to function and to remember basic preferences, such as your chosen measurement units. These are always active.

Analytics: we use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. Google Analytics sets cookies such as _ga, which typically last up to two years, and Microsoft Clarity helps us see how pages are used, such as scrolling and clicks, in aggregate. Together these show us which recipes are popular and how people find and use the Site.

Advertising: we display advertising through Mediavine. Mediavine and its advertising partners set cookies to show ads, to measure and limit how often you see them, and in some cases to personalize them. For visitors in the UK and EU, these cookies are set only in line with the consent you give through our cookie consent tool.

Marketing and measurement: we use the Meta (Facebook) pixel to measure how our marketing performs and, where you have consented, to help show relevant content. This may set cookies associated with Meta.

Affiliate: when you click a link to a retailer such as Amazon, that retailer may set its own cookies to credit us for any resulting purchase. These cookies are set by the retailer, on their own site, not by us.

Embedded content: some pages include embedded content, such as videos, which may set their own cookies.

Your Choices

When you first visit the Site, our consent tool lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies, and you can change your choice at any time by reopening it. Most browsers also let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings, though disabling some cookies may affect how the Site works. You can opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s browser add-on.

US Privacy Choices

If you are a US resident, depending on your state you may have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information, including for cross-context behavioral advertising. Where this applies, we honor recognized opt-out preference signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC).

Third Parties

The main third parties whose technologies may be used on the Site are Google (analytics), Microsoft (analytics), Mediavine and its advertising partners, Meta (marketing measurement), and the retailers and content providers we link to or embed. Some of these may transfer data to the United States.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Please check the date above for the latest version.
