Disclosure of information

Business Partners: We may share your information with our business partners to offer specific products, services, or promotions.
Opting Out of Targeted Advertising, Sharing, and Sales: To opt out of preference-based advertising, you can use the provided form. Note that this won’t prevent you from seeing ads in newsletters, but they will be randomly selected rather than based on your preferences.
Online Postings: When you post comments or content on the Site, they may be publicly viewed by all users and distributed outside the Site indefinitely.
Marketing Communications: With your consent, or an option for you to withdraw consent, we may share your information with third parties for marketing purposes, as allowed by law.
Third-Party Service Providers: Your information may be shared with third parties performing services on our behalf, such as payment processing, data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service, and marketing assistance. As an example, we currently use Flodesk for email updates and newsletters, and your name and email address may be stored for communication purposes.(For further details, please refer to the Flodesk privacy policy.)
By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe that releasing information about you is necessary to respond to legal processes, investigate potential policy violations, or protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by applicable laws. This may involve exchanging information with other entities for fraud protection and privacy risk reduction.
Other Third Parties: We may share your information with advertisers and investors for general business analysis or marketing purposes, as permitted by law.
Sale or Bankruptcy: In the event of a reorganization, sale of assets, merger, or acquisition, your information may be transferred to the successor entity.

Cookies, Web Beacons, and Tracking Pixels
We use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other similar technologies on the Site to customize it and enhance your experience. When you visit the Site, tracking technology may collect your personal information. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you have the option to remove or reject them. Keep in mind that doing so might impact the availability and functionality of the Site. Web beacons cannot be declined, but you can make them ineffective by rejecting all cookies or adjusting your browser settings to notify you when a cookie is presented, giving you the choice to accept or decline each one. For more details, please check our Cookie Policy.
Occasionally, we may use tracking pixels to assess the effectiveness of shared information or materials. For instance, if you subscribe to our newsletter, it might include tracking pixels for advertising purposes. These pixels, embedded in emails, help analyze the success of online marketing campaigns. They enable us to know if and when you open an email and which links within the email you click. Additionally, this allows the Site to tailor the content of future newsletters based on user interests.
Website Analytics
We also partner with selected third-party vendors, such as Google Analytics, to allow tracking technologies and remarketing services on the Site through the use of first party cookies and third-party cookies, to, among other things, analyze and track users’ use of the Site, determine the popularity of certain content and better understand online activity. By accessing the Site, you consent to the collection and use of your information by these third-party vendors. You are encouraged to review their privacy policies and contact them directly for responses to your questions. We do not transfer personal information to these third-party vendors. However, if you do not want any information to be collected and used by tracking technologies, you can visit the third-party vendor or review Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out Tool.
You should be aware that getting a new computer, installing a new browser, upgrading an existing browser, or erasing or otherwise altering your browser’s cookies files may also clear certain opt-out cookies, plug-ins, or settings.
Sponsored Content
We may provide sponsored content in which we are compensated for recipe development, product reviews, and other work. Sponsored content on the Site may contain separate tracking pixels. The pixel may be embedded in emails or blog posts and allows an analysis of the success of online marketing campaigns. Because of these tracking pixels, we may see if and when you click on a specific link, open an email, and which links within the email you click. Also, this allows us to adapt the content of future posts to the interests of the user. This behavior may be passed on to third parties.
Third-party websites
The Site has links to other websites and apps, like ads and external services, that are not connected to us. When you use these links and leave the Site, any information you share with those third parties isn’t covered by our Privacy Policy. We can’t guarantee the safety and privacy of your info in those situations. Before you visit and share any details with other websites, check out their privacy policies and practices (if they have any). It’s up to you to take the necessary steps to protect your privacy.
