Privacy Policy

Policy revised as of July 13, 2025. Lemon Cairn doesn’t require registration and does not store personal data directly. We do, however, use cookies plus select third-party tools to improve things for you.

General Introduction

Lemon Cairn is all about enjoying easy, welcoming recipes with simplicity in mind. We never ask you to create an account and don't gather your personal details directly. That means your private information won't be sold or shared with anyone.

Still, we want you to know that some information might be picked up automatically by outside providers that help us run Lemon Cairn. This could include things like traffic measurement, personalized ads, or embedded videos. This privacy policy aims to spell out—straightforwardly—what data might be collected via those tools, how it’s used, and how Lemon Cairn keeps your privacy safe while you browse the site.

Third-party services used

Lemon Cairn relies on a handful of external services to keep our platform running smoothly and to keep recipes free for you. These services help us enhance your visit, power up our content through video, and keep site features funded via ads. Here’s a look at the top third-party services involved:

  • Google Analytics: This audience-tracking tool by Google grabs general visit data—like which recipes you click and how long you stick around. It uses cookies for this purpose. The info helps Lemon Cairn spot trends and keep improving, but it never contains anything that can identify you personally.
  • Google AdSense: Google's ad platform places relevant ads on Lemon Cairn to help cover our costs so you can browse recipes at no charge. Google AdSense may set cookies to choose which ads you see, based on your browsing patterns. Lemon Cairn can't view or access any of your private info within those ads. More details are in Google’s own privacy policy.
  • Cloudflare Analytics: This tool, provided by Cloudflare, gives us insight into how Lemon Cairn is performing without storing identifying cookie data. We use Cloudflare Analytics to catch bugs and make the site fast and secure. Data like IP addresses and visits is bundled together and not tied to you directly.
  • YouTube: Occasionally, we embed recipe videos that are hosted on YouTube. If you watch a video on Lemon Cairn, Google/YouTube may use cookies to collect playback stats or keep count of views. If you’re signed into Google, video activity could link to your account—though Lemon Cairn never sees that information. Head over to Google or YouTube’s privacy page to learn more.

Cookies and consent

Cookies are tiny files saved on your device each time you visit most websites. Lemon Cairn and our service partners use cookies to make your visit smoother and better:

  • Functional cookies: These do the basic heavy lifting—like remembering your language or if you’ve set any consent options. Lose these, and certain parts of Lemon Cairn may not work as intended.
  • Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics put these in place to track how folks use the site. All info is grouped together anonymously. The data helps Lemon Cairn figure out which recipes or features people love, and where we can improve speed and usability.
  • Advertising cookies: Google AdSense stores little details about your interests or the stuff you browse, all so we can show you ads that make sense for you.

By sticking with Lemon Cairn, you’re good with these cookie practices. Of course, you can manage or wipe cookies using your browser’s options. Most browsers let you delete or block cookies—or ask you first before adding new ones. Just a heads up: turning off cookies might break some features on Lemon Cairn and other sites, too.

Changes to this policy

We occasionally update this privacy policy. Lemon Cairn might make changes to match current practices, roll out new service partners, or to stay compliant with fresh legal rules. If anything major changes, we’ll flag it clearly on Lemon Cairn—like a banner notice or dedicated alert.

You’ll find the latest update date at the top of this policy. We recommend checking back on this page from time to time to stay in the loop about how Lemon Cairn handles privacy and data.
