No account. A session cookie for the site, a pantry copy on this device, and Amazon Associates links on some Buy buttons.
No account
My Cocktail Pantry does not offer logins, mailing lists, or a contact form. There is no /contact page because there is no public inbox.
Session cookie
The site sets a Flask session cookie. It is HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax, and Secure on HTTPS. It stores a random user id so pantry and menus can persist on the server, plus a CSRF token for form posts. It is not used to advertise to you on other sites.
A private/incognito window or clearing site data drops that cookie and starts a new empty bar.
Pantry saved on this device
A copy of your pantry can also live in this browser’s local storage (mcp.pantry.v1) so the bar can restore after a visit. That copy stays on the device. Clearing site data removes it.
Analytics
Public pages may load Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-oriented beacon. It is not used to build an advertising profile.
Amazon Associates
My Cocktail Pantry is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. Some Buy buttons are affiliate links and include the tag mycocktailpan-20. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
Those links use rel=sponsored. Clicking Buy sends you to Amazon, which has its own privacy policy.
