Neural Persistence
Cookie & Tracking Policy — Geneva, Switzerland
01Operational Logic
Food-Pedia utilizes "Neural Persistence" (Cookies and similar tracking technologies) to ensure the peak performance of our global culinary intelligence network. These small data packets allow us to maintain your secure session, calibrate the AI Chef to your specific dietary requirements, and optimize the delivery of 3D gastronomic assets.
02Persistence Categories
Essential Infrastructure
Mandatory for security, authentication, and financial synchronization. These cookies enable **Firebase Auth** logic and secure **Stripe** checkout handshakes. Without these, the platform cannot function securely.
Calibrated Personalization
These cookies store your culinary profile settings, including language preferences (EN, FR, DE, IT, ES), dietary exclusions, and regional supermarket configurations. This ensures that the AI Chef provides relevant, localized intelligence upon every return.
Neural Telemetry & Analytics
We utilize anonymized telemetry via **Google Analytics** to monitor the health of our discovery engine. This allows us to identify which culinary heritage entries are most accessed, enabling us to prioritize AI synthesis for popular global regions.

04Sovereignty & Management
You maintain full sovereignty over your neural persistence settings.
