Cookie Policy

Cook With Cella ("CwC") uses the smallest possible set of cookies. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we don't load any third-party analytics scripts.

Essential cookies (always on)

These are required for the app to work, so they don't need consent:

• Session (authjs.session-token, or __Secure-authjs.session-token over HTTPS) — keeps you signed in after you use your magic link.
• Demo (cella-demo) — marks a demo session so we can show sample data and block changes.

Local storage (on your device, not sent to us)

• Your theme and a few interface preferences (e.g. whether you dismissed this notice).
• Offline data for the installable app.

These live in your browser and are never transmitted to our servers. Our mobile app doesn't use cookies — it stores your sign-in token in the device's secure storage.

How we measure shared links

When you arrive from a shared recipe or roast, we record the visit server-side using the link's own token and the referring site's host. This needs no cookie and stores no IP address — which is why you won't see a cookie-consent pop-up asking you to opt in to tracking. There isn't any tracking to opt into.

If this ever changes

If we ever introduce a non-essential cookie or a third-party tag, we'll add a proper consent control here first. See our Privacy Policy for the bigger picture.
