Effing Delicious respects your privacy. This policy explains what information may be collected when you visit https://effingdelicious.com/, why it is collected, and the choices available to you.
Who we are
Effing Delicious is a dessert recipe website operated in Ontario, Canada. Privacy questions may be sent to camila@effingdelicious.com.
Comments and recipe ratings
When visitors leave comments or recipe ratings, we may collect the information entered in the form, together with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent information to support spam detection, moderation, and site security.
An anonymized string created from an email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether the visitor uses that service. After a comment is approved, the associated profile image may be visible publicly beside the comment.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies generally remain for one year. Essential cookies may also be used for security, login administration, and site functionality.
Analytics and site performance
We may use privacy-conscious analytics and performance tools to understand how readers use the site, improve recipes and navigation, detect technical problems, and protect the website. These services may process information such as browser type, device type, approximate location, pages viewed, and referral source.
Contact forms and email
When you contact Effing Delicious, we receive the information you provide, such as your name, email address, and message. We use it to respond to your enquiry and maintain reasonable business records. Please do not send sensitive personal information through a contact form or ordinary email.
Email subscriptions
If an email newsletter is offered and you subscribe, your email address and related subscription information will be processed for the purpose of sending requested updates. Every marketing email will include an unsubscribe option. The name of the email-service provider and any additional processing details will be added here when that service is connected.
Embedded content and external services
Articles may include embedded videos, images, social posts, or other content from third-party websites. Embedded content behaves as though the visitor viewed it directly on the third-party website. Those services may collect data, use cookies, or track interaction according to their own policies.
Advertising and affiliate links
Effing Delicious may display advertising or use affiliate links. Advertising and affiliate partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure performance and prevent fraud. Affiliate relationships are explained on the Disclosure page and, where appropriate, near the relevant content.
How long we retain information
Comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognized and moderated. Contact correspondence and business records are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose collected, legal obligations, dispute resolution, and security.
Your choices and rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information held by Effing Delicious, subject to legal and operational exceptions. You may also withdraw consent to future marketing messages at any time by using the unsubscribe link or contacting camila@effingdelicious.com.
Where information may be processed
Website hosting, spam prevention, analytics, email, and other service providers may process information in Canada or other countries. When third-party providers are used, their own privacy terms also apply.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated as the site, legal requirements, or service providers change. The revised date will appear at the top of this page.
