Published at dinnershelf.com/cookies. Applies to the website only; the app is covered by the Privacy Policy.

dinnershelf.com sets no cookies. Instead, it keeps a few small items in your browser's storage (localStorage and sessionStorage). Apart from your choice on the storage notice, they are kept only if you choose OK. We do not use advertising, third-party analytics or cross-site tracking.

What we record about visits

Our own server records visits to dinnershelf.com:

We do not store IP addresses. Raw events are deleted after 13 months; we keep only daily totals.

Your choices

When you first visit, a storage notice asks for your choice.

You can also clear this storage in your browser settings.

Third parties

Google Fonts. dinnershelf.com loads its fonts from Google, so Google sees your IP address when a page loads. Google's own privacy policy applies to that request.

App Store and Google Play buttons. Clicks go through a short link on our own domain (for example dinnershelf.com/go/ios) so we can count them, then forward you to the store. This works without cookies or browser storage and records only the store, the button's place on the page, the device type, the referrer and the country if our CDN supplies it. After the redirect, Apple's and Google's own policies apply.
