General Introduction
Welcome to Meadow Cinder, your go-to spot for simple recipes without all the fuss. We don’t require signups and never ask for any personal details. That means your personal info isn’t collected, sold, or shared by Meadow Cinder.
Still, we want you to know that some basic data might be gathered through third-party tools we use to enhance your visit—like site statistics, personalized ads, or embedded videos. This privacy page explains what happens behind the scenes and how Meadow Cinder keeps your info safe while you browse.
Third-party services used
To keep Meadow Cinder running smoothly and bring you all these free recipes, we rely on several external service providers. They give us tools for site analytics, ad funding, and cool video features. Here's a breakdown of those key services:
- Google Analytics: Google supplies us with anonymous stats (like what pages you visit and how long you stay). This intel shows which recipes you all love and highlights ways for Meadow Cinder to improve. Google Analytics may use cookies for tracking, but Meadow Cinder never receives any personal data from them.
- Google AdSense: This is Google’s advertising platform, so you’ll see a few ads supporting Meadow Cinder’s content. AdSense might tailor the ads using cookies and your browsing habits, but all personalization happens on Google’s end—not ours. For full details, check Google’s own privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare gives us performance and visitor analytics. This keeps Meadow Cinder speedy and secure without relying on cookies to identify anyone. Data like IP addresses may be used in aggregate but is never used to track you as an individual.
- YouTube: Some of our recipe videos are embedded from YouTube (which is part of Google). Watching those may place cookies on your device to help track view counts or play stats. If you’re signed in with Google, YouTube could link your activity to your account. Still, Meadow Cinder can’t access any of that personal data. For more info, see YouTube’s privacy terms.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are basically tiny files that get placed on your device when you visit Meadow Cinder. Along with our partners, Meadow Cinder uses cookies to help you have a better time on the site:
- Functional cookies: They help Meadow Cinder remember things like your language preference or which consents you’ve given. Without them, some features just won’t work right.
- Analytics cookies: These come from services like Google Analytics or Cloudflare Analytics. They gather site usage stats so Meadow Cinder can see what’s working and make improvements—always in an aggregated, anonymous way.
- Advertising cookies: AdSense uses these to serve ads that might match your interests, based on what you look at online.
Using Meadow Cinder means you accept our use of cookies, as explained here. If you want more control, your browser lets you block, delete, or get notified about cookies as you wish. Keep in mind, though, that blocking cookies might affect your experience not only on Meadow Cinder but also on other sites.
Changes to this policy
It’s possible that this privacy policy might get updated from time to time. Meadow Cinder could change details as our services grow, or as new regulations come up. If any major updates happen, we’ll make sure you see a notice on the site—like on our homepage or through a special announcement.
The revision date at the top lets you know when the last update was made. We recommend checking back regularly to stay in the loop on Meadow Cinder's privacy efforts.
