This Cookie Policy explains how FixFlix Ltd uses cookies on thehomechef.co.uk. It does not apply to portal.thehomechef.co.uk, which does not use cookies at all.
When this policy refers to "we," "us," or "our," it means FixFlix Ltd, operator of The Home Chef. If you have questions, contact us at support@thehomechef.co.uk.
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site or third-party services to recognise your device on return visits or to collect information about how you interact with the page. Some cookies are set directly by us (first-party cookies); others are set by third-party services we use (third-party cookies).
We use only one category of cookie on thehomechef.co.uk: the Meta pixel, which is a marketing cookie set by Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd.
What it does: The Meta pixel collects information about your visit - including your IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and actions taken - and sends it to Meta. We use this data to understand how people find and engage with our content, and to show relevant advertising on Meta's platforms (Facebook and Instagram) to people who may be interested in The Home Chef.
Who sets it: Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. Meta acts as an independent data controller for the data it collects. You can read Meta's privacy policy at facebook.com/privacy/policy.
When it is activated: The Meta pixel is not active by default. It only loads after you give your consent via the cookie banner displayed on your first visit to thehomechef.co.uk.
We do not use any analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics), any functional or preference cookies, or any strictly necessary cookies beyond those required for basic page delivery. We do not use any cookies of any kind on portal.thehomechef.co.uk.
Under UK GDPR, we are required to obtain your consent before placing marketing cookies. When you visit thehomechef.co.uk for the first time, a cookie banner gives you the choice to accept or decline the Meta pixel. The pixel will not load unless you choose to accept.
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time using the button below. Withdrawing consent stops the pixel from activating on future page loads, but does not affect any data already collected by Meta before you withdrew.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies - refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions. Note that blocking cookies may affect the functionality of some websites you visit.
The portal does not use cookies. It uses your browser's local storage solely for functional purposes - for example, saving your progress within certain tools. This data stays entirely on your device, is never sent to us or any third party, and contains no identifying information. Local storage is separate from cookies and is not covered by cookie consent rules.
We may update this policy if our use of cookies changes. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. If we add new categories of cookie that require consent, we will present the consent banner again.
