Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 13, 2026
Recipes Worth Cooking collects only the information needed to operate the site, improve recipes, understand traffic, and respond to messages.
This page is written for launch readiness and should be reviewed again before any paid advertising, email marketing, or affiliate program goes live.
Information We Collect
If you create an account, save recipes, submit a contact form, or interact with recipe features, we may collect account details, submitted content, preferences, and basic usage information.
We may also collect technical data such as browser type, device information, page views, referring pages, and approximate location derived from standard web analytics.
Analytics and Measurement
Recipes Worth Cooking may use Google Analytics or similar tools to understand traffic, popular recipes, search behavior, print/share activity, and outbound affiliate clicks.
These tools help us decide which recipes to improve, which clusters to build, and whether monetization is working without weakening the cooking experience.
Affiliate Links and Advertising
Recipes Worth Cooking may use affiliate links or display ads. Affiliate-click events may be tracked so we can understand whether recommendations are useful.
See the affiliate disclosure for more detail.
Editorial and monetization standards are summarized on the editorial standards page.
How We Use Information
- Operate public recipe pages and account features.
- Respond to contact messages and support requests.
- Improve recipe quality, navigation, search visibility, and site performance.
- Measure affiliate, ad, print, share, and email-signup performance when those features are active.
- Protect the site from spam, abuse, and technical issues.
Sharing
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data with service providers that help run hosting, analytics, email, security, advertising, or affiliate measurement.
We may also disclose information when required by law or needed to protect the site and its users.
