Privacy Policy
Welcome to SunnyTasteBites! Your privacy and trust are important to us. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit https://sunnytastebites.com.
Comments
When you leave a comment on a recipe or post, we collect the information you provide (like your name, email, and comment), along with your IP address and browser details. This helps us reduce spam and keep the site safe for everyone.
If you use a Gravatar profile, a secure hash of your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to check for a profile picture. Once your comment is approved, your profile image may appear next to it.
Media Uploads
If you upload photos to SunnyTasteBites, please make sure they don’t contain location data (like EXIF GPS info). Other visitors could potentially download that data.
Cookies
We use cookies to make your experience smoother. Here’s how they work:
- When you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name and email in cookies. That way, you don’t have to retype them next time. These cookies stay on your device for one year.
- Visiting the login page may create a short-lived cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. It disappears when you close your browser.
- Logging in will set cookies to remember your login and screen preferences. Login cookies last for two days. If you choose “Remember Me,” they stay for two weeks. Logging out removes them.
- When you edit or publish a post, a cookie may save the post ID. This one expires after 24 hours and doesn’t store personal data.
You can manage or disable cookies anytime through your browser settings.
Embedded Content
Some posts may include content from other websites, like videos, images, or social media posts. That content works just like if you visited the original site, which may collect data, use cookies, or track your activity — especially if you’re logged in to that third-party service.
Data Sharing
We don’t sell or trade your personal information. In some cases, like a password reset, your IP address may be included in the email for security. Comments may be reviewed using automated tools to help filter spam.
How Long We Keep Your Data
When you leave a comment, it and its related info are saved permanently. This helps us recognize future comments and approve them more quickly.
If the site allows account registration, we store the information you provide in your user profile. You can view or edit your data at any time — except for your username. Site administrators can also manage this information.
Your Rights
If you’ve left a comment or created an account, you can ask for a copy of the data we’ve collected about you. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold, unless we’re required to keep it for legal or security reasons.
To make a request, please contact us at: [email protected]
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked by automated spam detection services to help keep the site secure and enjoyable for everyone.
