Welcome to our recipe website! This project was created by a group of friends as a learning platform to explore web development and share cooking inspiration. While this site is primarily educational and may be temporary, we value your privacy and want to be transparent about how your data is handled.

1. Information We Collect

When you create an account, we may collect:

• Your name, email address, and password (stored securely using encryption).
• The recipes you save, create, or import (including parsed data from external sites).

We do not request or store sensitive personal information (like payment data or home address).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide to:

• Allow you to create and manage your personal cookbook.
• Enable recipe storage, editing, and sharing features.
• Improve and test website functionality as part of our learning process.

We do not sell or share your personal data with third parties.

3. Cookies

Our website may use simple cookies to:

• Keep you logged in to your account.
• Remember your preferences and session information.

These cookies are essential for website functionality and are not used for advertising or tracking.

4. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored securely in our application’s database.

We use standard security measures to protect your data, including password hashing and access controls.

However, as this is a student learning project, we cannot guarantee enterprise-level security. Please avoid sharing sensitive information.

5. Third-Party Services

If the site uses third-party libraries or integrations (for example, recipe parsing tools or hosting providers), they may process limited technical information such as IP address or browser type under their own privacy terms.

6. Data Retention

You may delete your account at any time.

When deleted, your profile and recipes are removed from our database.

As this is a non-commercial project, data may also be deleted if the website is discontinued.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access, edit, or delete your account data.
• Request removal of your data from our systems.

To exercise your rights, please contact us at undineruska@gmail.com.
