When you visit the Shortbread Cookies Recipe Site, we may automatically collect certain information about your device and your interaction with our Site. This information helps us understand our audience, improve our content, and enhance your browsing experience.

  • IP Address: Your Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numerical label assigned to your device by your internet service provider. We use this to understand general geographic locations of our visitors and to help diagnose server problems.

Cookies

Like many websites, the Shortbread Cookies Recipe Site uses "cookies" to enhance your experience. Cookies are small data files placed on your device (computer or mobile device) when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time.

  • We use cookies for purposes such as:
    • Analyzing Site traffic and usage patterns.
    • Remembering your preferences (e.g., font size, language).
    • Improving the functionality and performance of the Site.
  • You have the option to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. However, this may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Third-Party Services

We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Site (e.g., hosting providers, analytics services like Google Analytics). These third parties may have access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. Their use of data is governed by their respective privacy policies.

Advertising

Currently, the Shortbread Cookies Recipe Site does not directly display third-party advertisements. However, some third-party services we use (e.g., analytics providers) may collect data for their own purposes, which could include serving personalized ads on other websites you visit. Should we introduce direct advertising in the future, this policy will be updated to reflect those practices and provide options for opting out where applicable.

The Shortbread Cookies Recipe Site is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13.
