This page lists every cookie and every item of browser storage that 24cocktails.com (the "Site") uses, what each one is for and how to change your choice. It supplements the Privacy Policy.
The Site sets no cookies of its own. It keeps your preferences in your browser's local storage, which never leaves your device and is never read by us. The only third-party cookies are those of Google Analytics 4, and only after you accept the banner.
With your consent, Google Analytics sets the cookies _ga and _ga_* (up to 2 years) to tell
returning visits from new ones and to count pages viewed. We use the aggregate reports to see which recipes and sections
are read; we do not use Google Analytics for advertising, and we do not share the data with other parties. Without your
consent, Google Analytics runs in consent mode: it sets no cookie and stores no identifier. Google's own
description of these cookies is in
Google's cookie policy.
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a banner asks once whether we may use
analytics cookies. Your answer is kept in local storage (consent24) so you are not asked again. You can
change it at any time:
Elsewhere, analytics runs without a banner, as the law of those places allows; you can still turn it off with the same button, or in your browser's settings.

Local storage is not sent with requests and is not a cookie in the technical sense; it is listed here because it is information stored on your device.
Clearing the Site's data in your browser (Settings → Privacy → Site data, or "Clear browsing data") removes every item above, including your saved recipes and your cookie choice. The next visit starts fresh.
