General Introduction
Fork Notion is your go-to spot for simple, enjoyable recipes. There aren't any user logins, and we don't gather your details directly. That means your personal data isn't being shared, sold, or distributed by us.
Still, we think it's important to let you know about data that may be gathered automatically by the outside tools we rely on. These help us create a better experience for you—think usage stats, personalized ads, and embedded videos. This privacy policy is here to break down what info might be collected, what it's used for, and how Fork Notion safeguards your privacy as you browse around.
Third-party services used
To keep Fork Notion running smoothly and to keep recipes free, we work with several trusted third-party services. These help us understand how folks use the site, keep the lights on with ads, and share awesome video content. Here are some of the main outside tools we use:
- YouTube: Every now and then, you’ll find video recipes hosted on YouTube (part of Google) right on Fork Notion. Watching these videos here may place Google/YouTube cookies to keep track of views or stream stats. If you’re signed in to your Google account, YouTube might link your viewing history to your profile—but Fork Notion doesn’t see any of this info. To learn more, check out YouTube/Google’s privacy details.
- Cloudflare Analytics: Cloudflare helps us understand traffic and keep Fork Notion running smoothly, all without using cookies that identify you. It helps us spot problems and make sure the experience is fast and safe. The info Cloudflare gathers (like your IP and what you browse) is combined with everyone else's and isn’t used to single anyone out.
- Google AdSense: Google’s ad platform lets us show you advertising, which helps fund the site. AdSense cookies are used to create more relevant ads based on your activity. We never see the personal info AdSense uses, and you can read more about it in Google’s privacy guidelines.
- Google Analytics: This is Google’s tool for understanding site activity. It collects anonymous details about traffic—pages you visit, time spent—which helps us spot which recipes are crowd-pleasers and figure out how to improve Fork Notion. Google Analytics might use cookies, but we aren’t given any personal info about you.
Cookies and consent
Cookies are tiny text files that get saved on your device when you stop by a website. Fork Notion and our trusted partners use them to give you a seamless browsing experience:
- Functional cookies: Without these, the site might not remember things like your chosen language or what you’ve agreed to in terms of privacy. They’re needed for the basic features to run properly.
- Advertising cookies: Google AdSense uses these to deliver ads geared to what you’re interested in or what you’ve checked out online.
- Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics use these to gather general info on traffic and site use. We look at this grouped info to see what content is working and find ways to make your experience even better.
By using Fork Notion, you’re accepting how we use cookies as described here. You can change up how cookies work through your browser’s settings. Most browsers let you block, delete, or get a heads up before any cookie is saved. Just know—turning off cookies might change how Fork Notion and lots of other sites work for you.
Changes to this policy
Every once in a while, this privacy policy might get updated. We could change things to reflect new rules, new services, or updates in how we handle data. If there’s anything you really need to know about, we’ll make sure it’s super clear on Fork Notion—maybe with a banner or a homepage notice.
The last change date is always at the top, so you know when it was last tweaked. Feel free to check back whenever you want to stay in the loop on how Fork Notion treats your info.
