General Introduction
Welcome to Moss Cedar, your friendly online recipe destination focused on easy, hassle-free cooking. We don’t use user accounts or gather your personal details ourselves. That means we never share or sell info about you.
Still, there are some instances when third-party providers may automatically capture data—like tools for tracking site statistics, showing you customized ads, or streaming videos. This privacy policy is here to give you an honest, plain-English explanation of how those processes work and what steps Moss Cedar takes to respect your privacy every time you visit.
Third-Party Service Providers
To help Moss Cedar run smoothly and keep our recipes free, we partner with a few outside service providers. They show us how our site’s performing, help pay our bills with ads, and let us share great cooking videos. Here’s a rundown of the most important tools we rely on:
- YouTube: Sometimes you’ll find video recipes embedded from YouTube (owned by Google) right on Moss Cedar. Watching a clip may prompt YouTube/Google to save a cookie for play tracking and analytics (like counting video views). If you’re signed into your Google account, YouTube might link your watch history to your profile. Moss Cedar, however, never sees this data. For more on this, check Google’s privacy info.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare helps us spot technical hiccups, monitor web traffic, and make sure the site stays snappy and secure. These analytics don’t use tracking cookies and the information (like your IP address or browsing patterns) is grouped up so nobody gets personally identified.
- Google AdSense: With AdSense by Google, you’ll see ads across Moss Cedar. Ads make it possible to offer you free content. AdSense might use cookies to display ads related to what you like, based on your site use. Moss Cedar never sees or accesses the personal information Google uses for these ads. You can learn more over at their privacy page.
- Google Analytics: Moss Cedar uses Google Analytics to get anonymized insights about which recipes are trending and how visitors use the site (like which pages get attention and for how long). To collect this info, Google Analytics may put cookies on your device, but Moss Cedar doesn’t collect anything that can personally identify you.
Cookie Policy & Your Choices
When you visit, Moss Cedar and our partners sometimes save tiny text files called cookies to your device. These cookies improve your experience in several ways:
- Advertising cookies: Google AdSense uses these to tailor ads that match your preferences or browsing patterns.
- Analytics cookies: With help from Cloudflare Analytics and Google Analytics, we gather info like site visits and how you use Moss Cedar. It’s grouped together and never linked to you personally. This helps us make Moss Cedar even better.
- Essential cookies: These are needed so things work properly, for instance, remembering your language settings or storing your consent choices. Without these, some site features just won’t work right.
By choosing to use Moss Cedar, you agree to our use of cookies described here. Want to adjust or wipe cookies? You can do this any time in your web browser settings. Most browsers give you options to block, remove, or receive a notification before cookies get added. Just know that turning off cookies might impact how Moss Cedar (and other sites) work for you.
Policy Changes
From time to time, Moss Cedar may revise this privacy policy. Updates might happen if we add new features, work with new partners, or need to comply with new laws. If we make any big changes, you’ll notice a clear notice on our homepage or as a special announcement on Moss Cedar.
