This page explains how crochetdelights.com (the “Website”) uses cookies, in plain words. If you want the bigger picture of how we handle information, our Privacy Policy covers that. This page is just about cookies.
1. What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your phone or computer. It lets the site remember something about your visit, like what you typed in a form, or that you’ve been there before.
Some cookies are set by us. Others are set by outside services we use, like Google. Those are called third-party cookies.
2. The Cookies We Use
Cookies the Website needs to work
Some cookies are simply part of how a WordPress website runs. They help pages load correctly and keep the site secure. Without them, parts of the Website might not work properly.
Comment cookies
If you leave a comment, WordPress can save your name, email address, and website in cookies on your device. That way you don’t have to type them again next time. It’s a convenience, and it’s optional: the comment form has a checkbox for it. These cookies can stay on your device for up to a year.
Analytics cookies
We use Google Analytics to see how people use the Website, for example which tutorials get read and where visitors come from. Google Analytics sets cookies (you may see names like _ga) to tell one visit from another. We use this information to make our content better, and we look at it as overall numbers, not as information about individual people.
Advertising cookies
We may show ads on the Website, and the ad services we use may set their own cookies. For example, Google, as an ad provider, uses cookies to show ads based on your earlier visits to this Website and other websites. These cookies also help with things like limiting how often you see the same ad and measuring whether ads are working.
We don’t control these third-party cookies, and they follow their own privacy policies.
Cookies from other sites
If we embed something from another site, such as a video or a social media post, that site may set its own cookies when the page loads. We don’t control those either.
3. How to Control Cookies
You’re in charge of the cookies on your device. You have a few ways to manage them.
In your browser. Every major browser lets you see, block, or delete cookies in its settings. Look for “Privacy” or “Cookies.” If you block all cookies, some parts of the Website may not work as expected.
Personalized ads. You can turn off personalized ads from Google at https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of many other advertisers’ personalized ads through the Network Advertising Initiative at https://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ or the Digital Advertising Alliance at https://optout.aboutads.info/.
Google Analytics. If you’d rather not be included in Google Analytics, Google offers a free browser add-on for that at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Cookie banner. If the Website shows a cookie banner when you arrive, you can use it to accept or decline non-essential cookies, and change your choice later.
Keep in mind that opting out of personalized ads doesn’t remove ads altogether. You’ll still see ads, they just won’t be tailored to your interests.
4. Changes to This Cookie Policy
Websites change, and so do the tools they use. If we add or remove a service that affects cookies, we’ll update this page and change the “Last updated” date at the top.
