Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 11, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how MyRecipeJoy (myrecipejoy.com) (“we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses and protects information when you visit our website. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

  • Information you give us: when you leave a comment, contact us or subscribe, we may collect your name, email address and the content of your message.
  • Information collected automatically: like most websites, our servers record technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device, referring page and the pages you visit.
  • Cookies: small files stored on your device. See our Cookie Policy for details.

How We Use Your Information

  • To run, maintain and improve the website and its recipes
  • To reply to your comments and messages
  • To prevent spam, abuse and security problems
  • To understand which recipes are popular so we can create better content
  • To comply with legal obligations

Comments

When you leave a comment, the name, email, website, IP address and browser user agent you provide are collected to help with spam detection. Your email address is never published. Comments may be checked by an automated spam detection service.

Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services to operate this website, such as web hosting and caching, search engine optimization tools and Google Fonts. These services may process limited technical data (such as your IP address) according to their own privacy policies.

If we display advertising (for example Google AdSense) or use analytics (for example Google Analytics), these third parties may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites and to measure traffic. You can learn how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings.

Embedded Content

Recipes may include embedded content (for example videos or images) from other websites. Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the other website, which may collect data about you.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We only share data with service providers who help us run the site, when required by law, or to protect our rights and the safety of our users.

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so follow-up comments can be approved automatically. Messages you send us are kept only as long as needed to respond and for our records.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA in California), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export the personal data we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, email us at contact@myrecipejoy.com.

Children’s Privacy

This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with data, please contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable measures, including a secure HTTPS connection, to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
