General Introduction
Tirza Kitchen is all about easygoing cooking and connecting over food. There aren't any user accounts here, so we don't gather your personal info directly. That means Tirza Kitchen's not selling or sharing anything about you.
However, some info might be picked up automatically by outside services we use—like tracking site stats, showing you tailored ads, or playing embedded videos. This privacy policy lays out simply how that data collection works, why it's helpful, and how Tirza Kitchen's got your privacy and data security top of mind as you browse our website.
Third-party services in use
Tirza Kitchen partners with select external providers to keep the site running smoothly and offer free recipe content. These third-party tools help us fine-tune your experience, understand visitor trends, support the site through advertising, and add embedded video recipes. Here’s a rundown of the main services we use:
- Google Analytics: This tool from Google anonymously tracks visitor activity (like time spent or recipe pages viewed). Insights from Google Analytics let us see how people use Tirza Kitchen so we can make our content and features even better. While cookies are used to collect this anonymous data, Tirza Kitchen never sees any personally identifying information.
- Google AdSense: Tirza Kitchen shows ads using Google’s AdSense platform, which keeps our content free for you. AdSense could use cookies to serve more relevant ads based on your visit, but any data Google uses for ad targeting isn’t visible to Tirza Kitchen. For the details of Google’s approach to data, check out their privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Tirza Kitchen uses Cloudflare to monitor web traffic and site health, again without collecting data that singles you out. Cloudflare helps us spot technical issues and keep your browsing fast and secure. Collected info (for instance, your IP or basic site activity) is analyzed in a way that doesn’t identify you personally.
- YouTube: We sometimes share step-by-step recipe videos via YouTube (a Google service). Watching a YouTube video on tirzakitchen.com may set YouTube or Google cookies to keep track of views or player preferences. If you’re logged into your own Google account, YouTube might link those views to your profile. Tirza Kitchen, though, isn’t given access to any of that data. For more information, you can check YouTube or Google’s privacy documentation.

- Functional cookies: These key cookies remember things like your consent and language settings. If you turn them off, some site features may not work at all.
- Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and Cloudflare use these to aggregate traffic data and see how folks use Tirza Kitchen. The purpose? To optimize our recipes and make the whole site better for you.

When you use Tirza Kitchen, you're agreeing to this cookie use. You’re always in control though—your browser lets you review, block, or remove cookies anytime. If you decide to block cookies, the site or others may not work quite as expected.
