Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 3, 2025
Welcome to Recipes For Days (https://recipesfordays.vercel.app). This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website. By accessing or using our site, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
We do not require or request users to provide personally identifiable information (PII), such as names, phone numbers, or addresses. You can browse all recipes and interact with features on the site without creating an account or logging in.
2. Automatically Collected Information
When you visit our website, certain information may be automatically collected through cookies or similar tracking technologies. This data is anonymous and may include:
- Your IP address (used to approximate location for analytics)
- Device type, browser type, and operating system
- Pages you visit and time spent on each page
- Referring URLs (how you arrived at our site)
This information helps us understand how users interact with our website and improve the overall experience.
3. Use of Cookies
Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help enhance usability. Our site uses the following types of cookies:
- Essential cookies: Needed for basic site functionality.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors engage with the website so we can improve performance.
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect site functionality.
4. Analytics Services
We use third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics or similar services to gather aggregate data on how users interact with our website. These services collect anonymous information and provide insights such as:
- Page views and user flow
- Session duration and bounce rates
- Device/browser demographics (e.g., mobile vs desktop)
We do not allow these tools to access personal information and we do not merge analytics data with any form of user ID or PII.
5. Chat and Communication Features
We may use a chat or feedback widget (such as Crisp, Tawk.to, or another provider) to allow users to interact with us directly. This feature may temporarily store:
- Your messages or questions
- Device/browser details
- IP address (used solely for chat context)
While we do not ask for personal data in chat, if you choose to share any, it will only be used to respond to your message and will not be stored beyond what the chat tool retains automatically.
6. No Account or Login Required
We do not offer user accounts or member logins at this time. This means we do not collect usernames, passwords, or subscription data.
7. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or share any information with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes. Information collected via cookies or chat is processed only by tools we use for internal improvements and communication.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable precautions to protect any information processed through our site. However, as with all internet services, we cannot guarantee absolute security. Any data collected through third-party services (like analytics or chat) is stored and managed by those services under their own security practices.
9. Third-Party Links
Our site may include links to external recipe blogs, YouTube videos, or affiliate products. We are not responsible for the content or privacy policies of those external sites. You are encouraged to read their privacy policies if you visit them.
