This Cookie Policy explains how AllRecipeEasy (allrecipeasy.com) uses cookies and similar technologies, what they do and how you can control them. The site is operated by the person identified in our Legal Notice.
Change or withdraw your cookie consent
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and device identifiers, and this policy covers them too. Some are set by us (“first-party”); others by other companies whose services we use (“third-party”).
2. How we ask for consent
When you first visit, a consent banner lets you accept all, reject all or choose which purposes and partners to allow (“More options”). The banner is provided by InMobi Choice through our advertising partner HBAgency. Until you make a choice, Google Analytics does not store or read analytics cookies, and our advertising scripts are not started. If you reject, our ad partners are instructed, through the consent framework, not to store or access information on your device. We are working with HBAgency to make sure every partner script respects a rejection. At the time of this update, a small number of partner scripts may still store limited technical data after a rejection. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link in the footer of every page. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and it does not affect processing carried out before you withdrew. If you withdraw consent, we also delete our Google Analytics cookies and the advertising cookies and identifiers that our partners stored on this website from your browser. Cookies that partners stored on their own domains can be removed in your browser settings. Your choice is stored for about 13 months, and we may ask you again sooner if our partners or purposes change.
3. The cookies we use
3.1 Strictly necessary (no consent needed)
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
euconsent-v2, addtl_consent and similar consent cookies | InMobi Choice (consent platform) | Remember your cookie choices | About 13 months (390 days) |
wordpress_test_cookie | AllRecipeEasy (WordPress) | Checks whether your browser accepts cookies (login and comments) | Session |
wordpress_*, wordpress_logged_in_*, wp-settings-* | AllRecipeEasy (WordPress) | Only for site administrators who log in | Session up to 1 year |

3.3 Analytics (consent required)
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics 4 (Google) | Distinguishes visitors to measure site use | Up to 2 years (most browsers limit this to about 13 months) |
_ga_<ID> | Google Analytics 4 (Google) | Keeps session state for measurement | Up to 2 years (most browsers limit this to about 13 months) |
We use Google’s Consent Mode. Where you have not consented to analytics, Google tags do not read or write analytics cookies, but they may still send limited, cookieless signals to Google (for example that a page was viewed and that consent was not given).
3.4 Advertising (consent required)
Ads on AllRecipeEasy are served through HBAgency and the partners it works with. These are ad exchanges, bidders and measurement and identity providers, such as Google, Criteo, ID5, Teads, Adform and others. With your consent, they use cookies and similar identifiers to show ads, limit how often you see them, measure performance and, if you allow it, personalise ads based on your interests. Examples we observed on our site include: cto_bundle and cto_bidid (Criteo, about 13 months), _cc_id (Lotame, about 9 months), panoramaId and panoramaId_expiry (Lotame, 7 days), _tfpvi (about 12 months), and identifiers kept in your browser’s local storage, such as ID5, SharedID and AMX IDs. The full, current list of partners, their purposes and their cookie lifetimes is in the consent banner, under “More options” and the partner list. The consent platform keeps that list up to date.
3.5 Embedded services
- Kit (newsletter forms): the embedded form loads from Kit’s servers. Kit may use cookies or local storage to operate the form and prevent spam.
- Pinterest (“Save” feature on recipe pages): may set or read cookies when it loads or when you use it.
- Cloudflare (performance beacon): collects page performance data. According to Cloudflare, it does not set cookies.
- Lemon Squeezy (paid ebook checkout, when available): sets its own cookies needed to process your order securely when you open the checkout.
3.6 Affiliate tracking
We do not currently use affiliate links. If we add them, the retailer or affiliate network may set a cookie when you click a link, to attribute any purchase. We will update this policy before that happens. See our Affiliate Disclosure.
4. Controlling cookies in your browser
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop some features working. Help pages: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge.
