Cookies Policy
Last updated: 10 September 2026
A straightforward explanation of cookies, browser storage and your choices on I Want Takeaway.
What cookies are
Cookies are small pieces of information that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage and session storage, can also remember information on your device.
A session cookie normally expires when the browser session ends. Other cookies can remain until their expiry date or until you delete them. Being necessary for a service does not automatically make a cookie a session cookie.
The current website
I Want Takeaway is a recipe browsing website. The current public pages do not include an advertising network, an embedded social-media feed or a third-party analytics service.
The website uses WordPress and Elementor. Site software and hosting services may use browser storage for technical functions. Authorised administrators may encounter additional cookies for signing in, security and account preferences; these are separate from ordinary recipe browsing.
Consent and your choices
Where cookies or similar technologies require consent, they must not be used until you have made that choice. Simply browsing the website is not consent. Some uses, including storage strictly necessary to provide a service you request, can be exempt from consent requirements.
If optional tracking is introduced, this policy and the relevant choice controls will need to be updated before it is enabled.
Social and sharing links
Choosing a social link or sharing button opens another website or app, such as Facebook, WhatsApp or Pinterest. That service may then use its own cookies and storage, subject to its policies and your settings. An email sharing link opens your chosen email application.
Managing browser storage
Your browser settings let you inspect and delete cookies and site data, and control whether websites can store them. Look for the privacy or site-data settings in your browser’s help menu.
Deleting existing cookies does not prevent them from being set again later. Blocking necessary cookies may affect features such as administrator sign-in.
