Last updated: October 7, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how ArkeRecipes.com (“ArkeRecipes,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies.

It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that websites can store on your device when you visit them.

They can perform many different functions, including keeping a website secure, remembering preferences, measuring website usage, supporting affiliate attribution and enabling advertising.

Cookies may be set directly by ArkeRecipes (first-party cookies) or by services provided by another organization (third-party cookies).

2. Similar Technologies

In addition to conventional cookies, websites may use technologies such as:

  • local storage;
  • session storage;
  • pixels;
  • tags;
  • scripts;
  • software development technologies;
  • unique identifiers.

For simplicity, this Cookie Policy generally refers to these technologies collectively as “cookies.”

3. Types of Cookies We May Use

They may be used for purposes including:

  • security;
  • fraud and abuse prevention;
  • traffic management;
  • remembering privacy choices;
  • maintaining website functionality.

Because these technologies are necessary to provide the website or a service explicitly requested by the visitor, they generally cannot be disabled through our cookie preference system.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies may remember choices or settings that improve your experience.

Examples may include:

  • display preferences;
  • language preferences;
  • saved settings;

They may measure information such as:

  • pages viewed;
  • time spent on pages;
  • referral sources;
  • approximate geographic region;
  • device category;
  • browser type;
  • interactions with website features.

We use this information to understand website performance and improve our content.

Where required by applicable law, analytics cookies will not be activated until you provide consent.

If advertising is displayed on ArkeRecipes, advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to measure advertising, limit repetition, detect fraud or, where permitted, personalize advertising.

Where legally required, advertising and personalization technologies will be activated only after the appropriate consent.

Affiliate Cookies

ArkeRecipes participates in affiliate programs, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program.

When you click an affiliate link, the destination retailer or affiliate network may use cookies or other identifiers to determine that your visit originated from ArkeRecipes and to attribute qualifying purchases.

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Affiliate cookies used after you leave ArkeRecipes are controlled by the applicable retailer or affiliate provider and are subject to that provider’s privacy and cookie policies.

4. Amazon Links

Links to Amazon may contain affiliate identifiers.

When you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon may process information and use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with Amazon’s own privacy and cookie practices.

ArkeRecipes does not control cookies placed on Amazon’s websites.

You should review Amazon’s applicable privacy notices for additional information.

5. Embedded Content

Articles may include embedded or linked content provided by third parties.

Depending on the services used, this could include video players, social media features or other interactive content.

When activated, these services may set cookies or collect information about your interaction with the embedded content.

Where required by law, third-party content involving non-essential tracking may be blocked until consent is provided.

6. Security and Content Delivery

Technologies used to protect and deliver ArkeRecipes may process information necessary to:

  • identify malicious traffic;
  • prevent automated abuse;
  • mitigate attacks;
  • distribute website content efficiently;
  • maintain website availability;
  • remember security or privacy-related settings.

Some of these technologies may be considered strictly necessary for the operation and security of the website.

7. Cookie Duration

Cookies can be:

Session cookies — normally deleted when you close your browser.

Persistent cookies — remain on your device until their specified expiration date or until you delete them.

The duration of third-party cookies is determined by the provider that sets them.

8. Your Cookie Choices

Where required by applicable law, ArkeRecipes provides controls allowing you to decide whether optional cookies may be used.

The available choices may include:

Accept All — allows optional cookie categories.

Reject All — rejects non-essential cookies while allowing technologies necessary for the website to function.

Customize — allows you to choose individual categories.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the Cookie Settings or equivalent privacy control available on the website.

Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that lawfully occurred before withdrawal.

9. Browser Controls

Most web browsers also allow you to manage cookies through their settings.

Depending on your browser, you may be able to:

  • view stored cookies;
  • delete cookies;
  • block cookies;
  • block third-party cookies;
  • configure exceptions for individual websites.

Blocking all cookies may cause some website functions to stop working correctly.

10. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Signals

Some browsers and devices provide privacy preference mechanisms such as Do Not Track or legally recognized opt-out preference signals.

Where applicable law requires recognition of a supported privacy preference signal, ArkeRecipes will endeavor to process it as required.

Because standards and legal requirements continue to evolve, functionality may vary depending on your browser, location and the services used by the website.

11. Third-Party Cookies

Third-party services are responsible for the cookies and technologies they control.

Their practices may change independently of ArkeRecipes.

We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie information provided by any third-party service with which you interact.
