1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They help the website remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third-party services integrated into the site (“third-party cookies”).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

At an74.com, we use the following categories of cookies to enhance your experience and improve our recipes website:

These cookies are strictly necessary for the basic functionality of our website. Without them, you cannot use certain features, such as navigating between pages or accessing secure areas. Examples include session cookies that maintain your login state and cookies that remember your cookie consent preferences.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our site, which pages are most popular, and how users find us. This helps us improve our content and user experience. We primarily use Google Analytics to collect aggregated, anonymized data such as page views, time on site, and referral sources.

Advertising Cookies

Advertising cookies are used to deliver relevant advertisements to you and measure the effectiveness of our ad campaigns. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense or other ad partners) with our permission. They track your browsing habits across different websites to build a profile of your interests and show you targeted ads on our site and elsewhere.

Preference Cookies

Preference cookies enable our website to remember information that changes the way the site behaves or looks, such as your preferred language, region, or recipe display settings (e.g., serving size or unit preferences).

You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of our website. Essential cookies are set without your consent because they are necessary for the site to function.

6. CCPA and CPRA (California Residents)

If you are a resident of California, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) give you additional rights regarding your personal information. Under these laws, you have the right to:

  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information (including cookies used for cross-context behavioral advertising).
  • Request deletion of your personal data, subject to certain exceptions.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Limit the use of sensitive personal information.

We do not sell your personal information in exchange for money, but we may share data with third-party ad networks for targeted advertising, which may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under California law. To exercise your right to opt out, please click the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link on our website or contact us at [email protected].

7. CalOPPA Compliance

We comply with the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA). CalOPPA requires us to disclose how we respond to “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Currently, our website does not respond to DNT signals because no uniform standard for such signals has been adopted. However, you can manage your cookie preferences as described in Section 4 above. We also agree to post a clear and conspicuous link to this Cookie Policy on our homepage and to notify you of any material changes.
