Information you provide
When you use the contact form, you may provide your name, email address, subject, and message. We use that information only to read, respond to, and manage your request.
If you use interactive recipe tools, shopping lists, or ingredient features, information may be processed by the website to provide the requested feature. Shopping list information is stored in your browser session and is not intentionally saved to the database by the shopping list page.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, the server may record technical details such as IP address, browser type, referring pages, requested URLs, and timestamps. This helps with security, troubleshooting, analytics, and performance.
Cookies and sessions
The website may use cookies or session storage for practical features such as admin login, shopping list sessions, preferences, security, or analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not work correctly if cookies are disabled.
Advertising
This website may display ads, including Google AdSense or similar advertising services. Advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads. You can manage ad personalization through your browser, device, or advertising provider settings.
Analytics and third-party services
We may use third-party services for hosting, analytics, email delivery, spam prevention, advertising, and recipe-related functionality. Those services process information according to their own policies and only as needed to support the website.
Data retention
Contact form messages may be retained as long as needed to respond, keep business records, prevent abuse, or comply with legal requirements. Server logs are usually retained for a limited operational period unless needed for security investigation.
Your choices
You can contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of personal information you have provided, subject to reasonable identity verification and legal or operational requirements.
