In this document

British Home Kitchen is a culinary history blog dedicated to traditional British recipes, baking notes, and everyday home meals. This policy explains the small text files placed on your device when you read our recipes and kitchen tips, what each category does, and how you can manage or block them in your own browser.

01 · Definition

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and provide us with anonymous information about how the site is being used, allowing us to maintain a stable and functional user interface.

On a food blog like this one, that might mean remembering which recipe category you last browsed, or letting us see which seasonal cooking guides are read most often so we can write more of what visitors actually use. A cookie is a short string of data, not a program — it cannot read files on your device or act on its own.

02 · Essential

Essential cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the website, such as navigating between pages or accessing secure areas. The site cannot function properly without these cookies, and they do not store personally identifiable information.

When you move from a seasonal cooking guide to a baking note, or open a traditional British recipe from the archive, essential cookies keep that journey working. They are set automatically as soon as you load a page. There is no opt-out for this category inside the site, because turning them off would prevent the page from loading or navigating at all.

Purpose Page navigation, secure area access, session continuity
Can you turn these off? No — the blog cannot operate without them
03 · Performance

Performance and analytics cookies

We use analytics cookies to track how visitors interact with our blog. This helps us identify which recipes are popular and where we might need to improve our navigation. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

For a home cooking blog, that means we can see that a particular Yorkshire pudding recipe or a page of simple kitchen tips is read more often than others, or that readers tend to arrive through the seasonal cooking guide in autumn. The data never identifies you personally. It simply tells us which content earns its place and where the layout could be clearer.

Purpose Aggregated traffic and content popularity
Identifies you? No — aggregated and anonymous
04 · Functionality

Functionality cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred font size or language. This provides a more personalized experience without requiring you to re-adjust settings every time you visit a new page.

On a practical level, functionality cookies are what keep a comfortable reading experience stable across a long visit. If you increase the text size to read a family dinner recipe, that preference can follow you from the recipe page to the baking notes without you resetting it each time. They are optional, but they save repetition.

Purpose Remember display and reading preferences
Can you turn these off? Yes — defaults will apply instead
05 · Your controls

  • Step three If you delete cookies already stored on your device, any saved reading preferences will reset to their default values on your next visit.
  • Step four Blocking essential cookies will prevent the blog from loading or navigating correctly. Blocking analytics or functionality cookies will not stop you from reading recipes.
