When visitors leave comments or reviews on the website, we collect the data shown in the form (such as your name and email), along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes publicly visible next to your comment.

If you upload photos (e.g., recipe submissions or product reviews), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from such images.
Cookies
If you leave a comment or review, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies will last for one year to make future interactions easier.
If you visit our login or checkout page, we may set temporary cookies to verify your browser’s compatibility. These cookies do not contain personal data and are discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, cookies are used to remember your login status and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days; display preferences for a year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login to two weeks. Logging out will remove these cookies.

Embedded content from other websites
Our website may feature embedded content (e.g., YouTube recipe videos, Instagram reels, or blog articles). These behave exactly as if you visited the originating site.
These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their embedded content, especially if you’re logged into their platform.

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. However, if you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for security purposes.
We may also share information with secure service providers (such as payment gateways and delivery partners) for order processing and fulfillment.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment or product review, the content and its metadata are stored indefinitely to improve customer experience and support transparency.
If you create an account, we store your profile data, which you can access, update, or delete at any time (except your username). Website administrators can also access and manage this information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account or have left reviews/comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold, including order history or account details. You may also request deletion of your data, excluding information we must retain for legal or security purposes.
