General Introduction
EatMood is a platform focused on simple and approachable recipes. We don’t offer user account systems and don’t directly gather personal information. This means we neither sell nor share any of your personal details.
That being said, we’d like to explain how certain data might be automatically collected through third-party services that help optimize your experience. These include activities like tracking site usage, serving tailored ads, or embedding videos. This privacy policy aims to provide transparent information about these processes and show how we prioritize protecting your data and privacy while browsing EatMood.
Third-Party Services
To ensure EatMood operates smoothly and remains free for users, we rely on third-party services. These services help us understand how the site is used, support our content through advertising, and enhance the pages with embedded video content. Key third-party services we utilize include:
- Google Analytics: This is Google’s audience analysis tool, which gathers anonymous usage data (e.g., visited pages and time spent). It helps us understand which recipes are popular and find ways to enhance the website. Google Analytics may use cookies to collect these data, but EatMood doesn’t access any information that identifies you personally.
- Google AdSense: Google's ad platform displays relevant ads on our site to help fund our content and keep it free for users. AdSense may use cookies to show you ads that match your browsing habits. EatMood doesn’t have access to any personal data Google uses for ad personalization. To learn more, please review Google’s privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: This website traffic analysis tool helps monitor site performance and visitor activity while avoiding cookies that personally identify users. It tracks aggregated data like IP addresses and browsing behaviors so we can address potential technical issues and ensure the site remains efficient and secure.
- YouTube: Occasionally, we embed video recipes hosted on YouTube, a service owned by Google. Watching these videos may result in YouTube or Google placing cookies to collect playback data and track statistics, such as view counts. If signed in to a Google account, YouTube could associate your viewing with your profile, but no such data is accessible to EatMood. For further information, please refer to YouTube and Google's privacy policies.
