Privacy Policy

Introduction

RasoiSecrets (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the website rasoisecrets.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

By using our website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, please do not access the site.

• Name: If you choose to provide it during newsletter signup.
• Recipe ratings and feedback: When you rate recipes or submit feedback on our site.

• Device information: Browser type, operating system, and screen size for optimizing your experience.
• IP address: Hashed and anonymized for rate limiting and abuse prevention. We do not store raw IP addresses.

How We Use Your Information

• To send you our weekly recipe newsletter and occasional cooking tips (only if you subscribe).
• To deliver lead magnets and digital products you request.
• To improve our website content and user experience based on aggregate usage patterns.
• To display aggregate recipe ratings and popularity metrics.
• To track affiliate link clicks for revenue reporting (no personal data is shared with affiliates).
• To respond to your questions or feedback.

Cookies and Tracking

We use minimal cookies necessary for site functionality. We use privacy-friendly analytics that do not use cookies for cross-site tracking and do not sell your data to third parties.

Third-party services on our site may set their own cookies:

• Vercel: Our hosting provider may set performance-related cookies.
• Amazon Associates: When you click an affiliate link, Amazon may set cookies on their domain to track the referral.

Affiliate Links

RasoiSecrets participates in the Amazon Associates Program and may participate in other affiliate programs. When you click an affiliate link on our site, we log the click (product ID, source page, timestamp) for our internal reporting. No personal information is included in this log.

When you arrive at the affiliate partner's site (such as Amazon), their own privacy policy governs how they handle your data. We encourage you to review their policies.

Email and Newsletter

We send emails only to subscribers who have explicitly opted in. Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe link. You can also manage your preferences or unsubscribe at any time by visiting our newsletter preferences page.

We use Resend as our email service provider. Your email address is stored securely in our database and is never sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), secure database access with row-level security policies, and hashed identifiers where applicable. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100 percent secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data.
• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data.
• Unsubscribe: Opt out of email communications at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@rasoisecrets.com. We will respond within 30 days.
