Privacy Policy

1. Definitions and Interpretation

This policy refers to several terms. “We,” “Us,” or “Our” refers to Yolla Recipes. “Personal Data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. “Usage Data” is data collected automatically, either generated by the use of the service or from the service infrastructure itself (e.g., the duration of a page visit).

2. Personal Data We Collect

We only collect Personal Data that you voluntarily provide to us. This typically occurs when you interact with us in the following ways:

• Comments: When you leave a comment on a recipe, we collect your name (or chosen nickname) and email address.
• Contact Forms/Email: If you contact us via email at contact@yollarecipes.com, we collect your email address and the content of your message.

3. Usage Data and Tracking Technologies

When you access the website, we automatically collect Usage Data. This includes your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, and other diagnostic data. We also use Cookies (small data files) and similar tracking technologies like web beacons to track activity on our site and improve your experience.

4. Purposes for Processing Your Data

We use the collected data for various purposes:

• To provide and maintain our website and content (recipes).
• To notify you about changes to our service or policies.
• To allow you to participate in interactive features when you choose to do so.
• To monitor the usage of the website to identify popular recipes and user trends.
• To detect, prevent, and address technical issues or fraudulent activity.

5. Legal Basis for Processing (General Principles)

We process your Personal Data only when we have a legal basis to do so. This includes processing that is necessary: (a) for our legitimate interests (such as improving the website, preventing fraud, and conducting business analysis), (b) to comply with a legal obligation, or (c) where you have given your explicit consent (such as leaving a comment).

6. Disclosure of Your Personal Data (Third Parties)

We may share your Personal Data and Usage Data with certain third parties under specific circumstances:

• Service Providers: We use third-party companies and individuals (like Google Analytics) to facilitate our website, perform website-related services, or assist us in analyzing how our website is used.
• Advertising Partners: We may display advertisements. These partners may use cookies to personalize the ads you see based on your browsing history.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose your Personal Data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or protect the rights or safety of Yolla Recipes or others.

7. Data Retention and Security

We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. For example, comments data is kept until the content is removed. We have implemented security measures designed to protect the security of any Personal Data we process. However, we cannot guarantee absolute security as no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

8. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access: Request copies of your Personal Data we hold.
• Rectification: Request correction of any incomplete or inaccurate data.

If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information.
