General Introduction
Whisk n Joy is your go-to spot for easygoing, delicious recipes. There’s no need to create an account—so we never gather your personal details or share your info with anyone.
Still, automatic data might be picked up through some outside tools that help us run the site better (think: video embeds, ads, and site stats). This policy is here to lay out in plain terms what gets collected and how Whisk n Joy keeps your privacy safe while you browse around.
Third-party services we use
To keep Whisk n Joy running smoothly and free for you, we tap into several outside platforms. These partners help us understand our audience, bring you extra content like videos, and cover running costs through ads. Here are the key third-party tools we use:
- YouTube: Sometimes, you’ll see recipe videos hosted on YouTube right in our pages. YouTube (owned by Google) may use cookies to track how videos are watched and for stats like view counts. If you’re logged in with a Google account, YouTube could connect your viewing to your profile—but Whisk n Joy never sees that information. You can check out Google’s privacy policy for more details.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Whisk n Joy uses Cloudflare for monitoring traffic and site performance. This service helps us spot tech issues and keeps the site secure. Cloudflare aggregates data like your IP address to understand group trends, but doesn’t personally identify you or use cookies for it.
- Google AdSense: This is how we display ads to offer you free recipes. AdSense relies on cookies to show ads that fit your interests, but Whisk n Joy never has access to your private data behind those ads. For additional info, check Google’s privacy pages.
- Google Analytics: This audience insights tool collects anonymous usage stats—such as what pages you explore and how long you stay. It helps us see which recipes you love and guides future improvements. Although cookies are used, Whisk n Joy doesn’t collect personal identifiers.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are tiny files saved on your device when you visit Whisk n Joy. We—and our trusted third-party partners—use them to give you a better experience:
- Advertising cookies: Driven by Google AdSense, these keep track of your interests and browsing to show you more tailored ads.
- Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics use these to spot site usage trends. The information is grouped together and helps us tweak Whisk n Joy for you, but doesn’t single anyone out.
- Functional cookies: Without these, some vital site features couldn’t work—like remembering your language preferences or settings. They make sure things run the way they should.
By using Whisk n Joy, you’re agreeing to our use of cookies, as described here. You have full control over cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers let you block, remove, or get a heads up before cookies are set. Just keep in mind that blocking cookies may impact your Whisk n Joy experience, or change how the site works.
