Data Usage & Tracking Policy

Understanding how we collect and use information to enhance your cooking education experience

Last updated: January 15, 2025

What Are Tracking Technologies?

When you visit somixola.com, various small data files help our website remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our healthy cooking content. Think of them as digital bookmarks that make your learning experience smoother.

These technologies range from essential files that keep you logged in, to analytical tools that help us understand which recipes are most popular. Some track your journey through different cooking lessons, while others remember that you prefer metric measurements over imperial ones.

We believe in transparency about data collection. This page explains exactly what information we gather, why we need it, and how you can control your privacy preferences while still enjoying our cooking education platform.
