1. A cookie is a small snippet of text that a website asks your browser to store. All cookies have expiration dates in them that determine how long they stay in your browser. Cookies can be removed in two ways: automatically, when they expire, or when you manually delete them. We’ve included more details below to help you understand what kinds of cookies we use.
2. A Little Bit Yummy uses cookies with the primary purpose of making our website work more effectively.  We use two types of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies

2.1. Session cookies – these are temporary cookies that expire (and are automatically erased) whenever you close your browser. An example of how we use session cookies is to grant access to content and enable commenting (things you have to log in to do).

2.2. Persistent cookies – these usually have an expiration date far into the future and stay in your browser until they expire, or until you manually delete them. An example of how we use persistent cookies is for functionalities like the “Stay logged in”.
We also use persistent cookies to better understand usage patterns so we can improve the site for our customers. This information is anonymised – when we look at the data, in other words, we look at patterns, but we do not see individuals’ personal data.

3. There are also limited third-party cookies on the site. These cookies could be session or persistent and are set by entities other than A Little Bit Yummy. To ensure compliance with our policies, we restrict the use of third-party cookies to trusted Processors. We currently allow:

3.1.  Essential cookies – these cookies are all first party cookies that are essential for the operation of our website. For example, some cookies allow us to identify subscribers and ensure they can access the subscription pages.

3.2.  Functional cookies – these cookies remember your log-in details if you have the “Stay logged in” box ticked which makes it possible for registered users to return to the site without having to log in. Functional cookies also make sure the website looks consistent as well as allowing us to analyse site usage so we can measure and improve performance.  We use a functional cookie to remember your cookie preference from our ‘Cookie preference’ tool as well as to provide you with enhanced services like commenting.

3.3. In addition, we use functional cookies for audience measurement and validation. We use Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, and Hotjar to understand how many people visit us and what is popular, which helps us improve the website.
