General Introduction
Nova Tongs is a cooking recipe platform focused on keeping things easy and friendly. We don’t use accounts and we don’t directly gather your personal info. That means Nova Tongs's not selling or sharing what’s yours with anyone.
Still, we think you should know how certain tech tools might collect info automatically through third-party services we use (like stats trackers, relevant ads, or videos). This privacy policy’s here to give you a straightforward idea of what happens behind the scenes and how Nova Tongs protects your privacy every time you visit novatongs.com.
Third-party services we use
For Nova Tongs to run smoothly and continue giving you free recipe inspiration, we rely on a few outside tools. These partners help us know how people use novatongs.com, support our work through advertising, and let you watch video content on our pages. Here’s a quick tour of some key services Nova Tongs uses:
- YouTube: Every now and then, we include recipe videos right from YouTube (which is part of Google). Playing a YouTube video on Nova Tongs might place YouTube or Google cookies to track your views or check out stats (like view counts). If you’re logged into a Google account, YouTube could link your watching activity to your profile – but Nova Tongs never sees any of that info. To find out more, you can check YouTube or Google’s privacy policy.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare powers our website traffic monitoring. It helps us spot things like technical bugs or slowdowns. The data Cloudflare gathers (IP addresses or browsing info) are grouped together and aren’t used to personally pick you out. Plus, these insights don’t grab your identity and aren’t tied to cookies that name you.
- Google AdSense: We show ads on Nova Tongs with help from Google’s ad network. These ads keep our site free for everyone. AdSense uses cookies to serve up ads tailored to your browsing habits. Nova Tongs doesn’t have access to whatever personal data Google might use to pick those ads. Want details? Visit Google’s privacy policy for a closer look.
- Google Analytics: Google’s Analytics tool gives us anonymous stats about the site (like which recipe pages get visits or how long people stick around). With this info, Nova Tongs can see what you love most and make novatongs.com better. Google Analytics uses cookies for tracking, but Nova Tongs never collects details that could personally identify you.
Cookies and your consent
Cookies are tiny files saved to your device when you drop by a website. Nova Tongs and our trusted service providers use cookies to make your experience better:
- Advertising cookies: Google AdSense sets these so you see ads that fit your interests based on how you browse novatongs.com. They can remember your choices, but only to show you more fitting ads.
- Analytics cookies: Both Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics help us learn more about how people interact with Nova Tongs. These cookies gather crowd info (nothing personal) so we can figure out what’s working and make tweaks as needed.
- Functional cookies: Some cookies are essential—like when they remember your language settings or keep track of what you’ve agreed to. Without them, parts of Nova Tongs just won’t run right.
By using Nova Tongs, you’re saying you’re okay with us using cookies just as described here. If you ever want to manage or clear your cookies, you can do that through your browser’s settings. Most browsers let you delete all cookies, block them, or get a warning before new ones appear. Just keep in mind: blocking cookies might change how Nova Tongs and some other sites work for you.
