Hannahsrecipes is a recipe and cooking content website that publishes food-related articles, recipes, kitchen guidance, and similar editorial material.

For the purposes of applicable data protection law, Hannahsrecipes is the controller of personal data processed through hannahsrecipes.com. Questions about this Privacy Policy or requests relating to personal data may be directed to contact@hannahsrecipes.com.

• Improving recipe pages, cooking articles, site structure, readability, and overall user experience.
• Responding to inquiries or other communications sent by email.
• Complying with legal obligations, regulatory requirements, or lawful requests.
• Establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims where necessary.

Where the GDPR applies, Hannahsrecipes relies on one or more of the following legal bases for processing personal data:

• Legitimate interests: to operate a functional food blog, analyze website traffic, maintain security, prevent abuse, improve content quality, and respond to communications.
• Consent: where required by law for the use of certain cookies or similar technologies, processing will be based on your consent. You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to the lawfulness of processing already carried out.
• Legal obligation: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, or lawful requests from public authorities.
• Legal claims: where processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

When relying on legitimate interests, Hannahsrecipes seeks to ensure that such interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Hannahsrecipes uses cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, understand visitor behavior, measure site performance, and maintain security.

Hannahsrecipes implements reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or unauthorized access. Such measures may include secure hosting practices, access controls, system monitoring, and other safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data processed.

However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Accordingly, while reasonable efforts are made to protect personal data, Hannahsrecipes cannot guarantee absolute security.
