Your recipe data, ingredient lists, and pricing settings are stored in your browser’s local storage. This data never leaves your device and is never sent to our servers or any third party. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser data.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use tracking and advertising cookies only when you give consent via our cookie banner. Cookie consent and tag loading are managed via Google Tag Manager. If you accept cookies, the following services may set cookies on your device:

  • Google AdSense — Google uses cookies, including the DoubleClick (DART) cookie, to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing history. These cookies have varying retention periods set by Google. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings, Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out, or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
  • Google Analytics — We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (pages viewed, time on site, general location). Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous usage data. These cookies have varying retention periods set by Google. You can opt out with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

If you decline cookies, neither Google AdSense nor Google Analytics will be loaded, and no tracking cookies will be set.

Legal Basis for Processing

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies, the legal basis for processing your data through cookies and analytics is your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). We do not load any tracking or advertising scripts until you actively accept cookies via our consent banner.

California Residents — Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), when you consent to advertising cookies, personal information such as browsing data and online identifiers may be “shared” with Google for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising. This constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information as defined by CCPA/CPRA.

How to opt out: Decline advertising cookies via the cookie banner when you first visit, or click “Cookie Settings” in the footer at any time to revoke your consent.

As a California resident, you have the following rights:

  • Right to know: Request what personal information we collect, use, and disclose.
  • Right to delete: Request deletion of your personal information.
  • Right to opt-out of sale/sharing: Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
  • Right to non-discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.

To exercise these rights, email plover_anther_9y@icloud.com.

Calculator data is stored locally on your device and is retained until you clear it. We do not maintain any server-side database of user data.
