Template: Review with a Qualified Professional Before Launch

This cookie policy is a plain-English starting template. Please have it reviewed by a qualified legal professional and adapted to your jurisdiction and the exact tools you run before you publish it.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device to help it work and to remember things between visits. Some are essential to running the site; others help us understand how the site is used. We use both kinds, sparingly.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies keep CeylonCooking working as you expect, for example remembering your cookie choices, keeping pages secure, and supporting basic functionality. The site cannot function properly without these, so they do not require consent.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Microsoft Clarity to understand how people use the site: which recipes are popular, where readers get stuck, and how pages perform. These tools set analytics cookies that collect usage data such as page views, clicks, scrolling and approximate location.

We use this information in aggregate to improve our recipes and guides. We do not use it to identify you personally, and we do not use advertising or tracking cookies to follow you around the web.

How to Opt Out of Analytics Cookies

You can decline analytics cookies through our cookie banner where one is shown, and you can change your choice at any time.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings (every major browser lets you do this), and you can install the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to opt out of GA4 across all sites. Please note that blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site working.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are set by the third-party services we use, such as Google (Analytics), Microsoft (Clarity) and Gumroad (when you go through checkout). These providers set and read their own cookies under their own privacy policies. We share only the minimum information needed for these services to work.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy as the tools we use change. The current version always lives on this page, and the "last updated" date shows when it last changed.

More Information

For how we handle the personal information collected through these tools, see our Privacy Policy. Any questions? Email hello@ceyloncooking.com.
