Last updated: October 20, 2026

SimplyZestyRecipes is operated by Amelia Rhodes and is the data controller for personal data collected through this website. You can contact us at contact@simplyzestyrecipes.com.

At SimplyZestyRecipes, accessible from www.simplyzestyrecipes.com, we respect the privacy of our visitors and are committed to protecting the personal information you provide to us. This privacy policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.

1. Collection of Personal Information

We may collect personal information when you visit our site, contact us, fill out a form, or interact with us in any other way. The personal information collected may include:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • IP address
  • Browsing data (pages visited, duration of visit, etc.)

2. Use of Collected Information

The information we collect is used to:

  • Improve our website and user experience.
  • Respond to your inquiries or support requests.
  • Display advertising and measure its performance.
  • Protect the website against spam and abuse.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who help us operate the website (such as hosting, analytics, and advertising partners like Google), only as needed to provide their services, or where required by law.

3. Protection of Your Information

We implement various security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, while we strive to protect your personal information, no data transmission or storage system is completely secure.

4. Cookies and Consent

We use cookies and similar technologies to make the website work, measure traffic and display advertising. Strictly necessary cookies are always active. Non-essential cookies, such as analytics and advertising cookies, are only placed after you give your consent through our cookie banner, where required by law (including in the EU/EEA and the UK).

You can accept or refuse non-essential cookies, and you can change or withdraw your choice at any time through the cookie settings available on the website. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features may not work properly.

5. Google AdSense and Advertising

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. For more information, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

6. Links to Third-Party Sites

Our site may contain links to other websites that are not operated by SimplyZestyRecipes. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policy before providing any personal information.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, to receive a copy of it in a portable format, and to withdraw your consent at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@simplyzestyrecipes.com.

If you are in the EU/EEA, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In France, this is the CNIL (www.cnil.fr).

8. Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Contact messages are kept until you ask us to delete them. Analytics data is retained according to our Google Analytics settings.

9. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers, such as Google and Cloudflare, may process data outside your country, including outside the European Economic Area. Where required, these transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses or other mechanisms recognized by law.

10. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics collects information such as your IP address, pages visited and device data, using cookies. Where required by law, this happens only after you give your consent. You can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by refusing analytics cookies in our cookie banner.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

SimplyZestyRecipes reserves the right to update this privacy policy at any time. We encourage you to review this page regularly to stay informed of any changes. Changes will be effective upon posting to this page.
