Privacy & Policy

This document was last updated on 27 December 2024. We encourage you to review it carefully, as it outlines our commitment to safeguarding your privacy and protecting your personal information. At Recipes Clare, we prioritize transparency in how we collect, use, and protect your data, ensuring your trust remains at the core of our practices.

Privacy Policy - recipesclare.com

Hey there! I'm so glad you're here exploring recipes with me at Recipes Clare. Before we dive into the cooking, I wanted to be transparent about how I handle your information - because trust is as important as good ingredients!

To make your visits to my corner of the food world enjoyable (and to keep improving things), I collect some basic details like your email when you share it, your username if you create one, what kind of device you're using to browse recipes, and which dishes catch your eye the most. This helps me know what recipes to develop next!

Just like I wouldn't share a family secret ingredient without permission, I only collect personal information with your consent and use it solely to enhance your experience here in my digital kitchen.

How Long I Keep Your Information

I store your personal information only as long as needed to provide access to recipes and features you love, or as required by law - similar to not keeping leftovers until they turn green in the back of the fridge!

What Information I Collect

To make your recipe hunting more enjoyable, here's what I gather:

  • When you reach out through the contact form: your email address, name (if you share it), and your message
  • During your visits, I collect:
    • Technical details about any website hiccups, your device type, and operating system (boring but necessary stuff)
    • How you interact with recipes - which ones you click on, save, or print (helps me know which ones are actually working for you!)
    • Your general location when permitted (mainly so I can suggest seasonal recipes that make sense where you are)
  • Information you voluntarily share when creating an account or using special site features

Kitchen Partners I Work With

Running this recipe site means I need some help from trusted partners:

Cookie Policy

Unlike the chocolate chip kind, digital cookies help make recipesclare.com work better! They're small text files that help remember your preferences and understand how you use the site.

These cookies help me personalize your experience (like remembering your preferred measurement system) and understand which recipes are hits and which need work. I do share some anonymous usage data with Google and Facebook, which they might combine with information you've already given them elsewhere.

A Note From My Kitchen

By browsing around recipesclare.com, you're agreeing to how I use cookies and collect information. Everything I gather helps me make your experience better—from suggesting recipes based on what you've enjoyed before to making sure the site loads quickly when you're frantically searching for dinner ideas at 5pm.

I treat your data with the same care I give my grandmother's handwritten recipe cards - with respect and protection.

Got questions? Recipe ideas? Privacy concerns? I'd love to hear from you! Drop me a line at: privacy@recipesclare.com.
