General Introduction
Delicious by Nina is a website dedicated to sharing simple and approachable recipes. We don’t have user accounts and don’t directly collect any personal information. Therefore, we don’t sell or share any of your personal data.
That said, we’d like to explain how some data might be collected automatically through the third-party services we use to improve your overall experience (such as traffic analytics, personalized ads, and embedded videos). This privacy policy aims to clearly and transparently explain these practices and how we prioritize protecting your private information while you use Delicious by Nina.
Third-Party Services We Use
To ensure Delicious by Nina runs smoothly and remains free for you, we rely on third-party services. These services help us analyze site usage, fund our content through advertising, and enhance our pages with videos. Here are the main third-party services we depend on:
- Google Analytics: A data analysis tool provided by Google that gathers anonymous site-usage data (e.g., pages visited, time spent on the site). This helps us understand which recipes are most popular and how to improve the site. Google Analytics may use cookies to track this data, but Delicious by Nina doesn’t collect any data that could identify you personally.
- Google AdSense: Google's advertising platform enables us to display ads on the site. These ads help us fund the site, allowing us to provide free content. AdSense may use cookies to show ads tailored to your browsing actions. Delicious by Nina doesn’t have access to the personal information Google uses for ad customization. For additional details, you can check Google’s privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: A web traffic analytics service provided by Cloudflare. It allows us to monitor the site’s performance and traffic without utilizing identifying cookies. This helps ensure the site stays fast and secure while identifying any technical issues. Data collected by Cloudflare (like your IP address and browsing activity) is aggregated and not used to uniquely identify you.
- YouTube: Some of our recipes feature embedded YouTube videos (a Google product). Watching a video on Delicious by Nina may trigger cookies from YouTube/Google to track video performance data (e.g., view counts). If you’re logged into your Google account, YouTube might link your viewing activity to your profile, though we don’t have access to this data. You can read more in YouTube/Google’s privacy policy.

- Analytics Cookies: Used by Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics to gather insights about site traffic and usage. This aggregated information helps us improve Delicious by Nina’s performance and content layout.
- Advertising Cookies: Used by Google AdSense to deliver ads. These may track your preferences or browsing patterns to offer more relevant advertisements.
By using Delicious by Nina, you agree to the use of cookies as described here. You can manage or delete cookies through your web browser settings.
