General Introduction
messli's recipe platform puts simplicity and friendliness at the core. You'll find there's no need to create an account, and we never directly gather details about you. That means your personal info isn't sold or shared, period.
Still, some data gets collected automatically when we use external services to make your browsing better—think site traffic, personalized ads, or embedded video. This privacy notice is here to clearly outline these practices, so you know how messli keeps your data and privacy safe while you’re here.
Third-party services used
messli relies on several third-party tools to keep the site running smoothly and let you access recipes for free. You benefit from service enhancements, advertising support, and video content through these partners. Here's a look at the key third-party services we use:
- YouTube: Occasionally, you'll see recipes as videos hosted on YouTube (owned by Google) right on messli. Watching these clips may result in YouTube or Google setting cookies to track things like play count and view statistics. If your Google account is active, YouTube might link your viewing to your profile, but messli can't see any of that information. For further details, refer to YouTube or Google’s privacy page.
- Cloudflare Analytics: This web traffic tool from Cloudflare helps us spot issues and keep messli fast and secure. It doesn't use cookies to identify you. Cloudflare collects data like IP addresses and browsing patterns, but it’s anonymized and won’t single you out.
- Google AdSense: Through Google’s ad platform, messli displays advertisements to support its free content. AdSense may use cookies to serve ads that match your interests and browsing habits. We don’t see any personal info used for ad targeting. To learn more, check Google’s privacy policy.
- Google Analytics: This audience measurement service from Google collects anonymous traffic statistics (like pages viewed or time on site). The insights help us figure out which recipes are favorites and how to make messli better. Cookies may be involved, but messli never accesses data that could identify you directly.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are tiny data files placed onto your device when you visit messli. messli and its service providers use them to make your experience better:
- Advertising cookies: These are set by Google AdSense. They log your interests and behavior so messli can display ads you're more likely to care about.
- Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics use these to track site usage and visitor activity. All data gets combined and helps us improve messli’s features and content.
- Functional cookies: These crucial cookies enable key features (such as remembering preferences or consent decisions). Without them, some site functions might not operate as expected.
By browsing messli, you agree to how cookies work as mentioned above. You’re always free to change or remove cookies through your browser’s settings. Most browsers let you block, erase, or get notified before cookies are stored. Bear in mind, disabling cookies can impact your experience on messli and elsewhere online.
