Below is a plain account of the information Glutenora handles, what it is used for, and how to have it removed.
Where this applies
This policy covers this website. It does not cover the sites we link to, each of which has its own, nor any social platform where the site has a presence: there, the platform’s rules govern what it collects, and we see only what it chooses to show us.
What is collected
Loading a page transmits technical data: your IP address, the browser and device you use, which pages you open, the site you came from, and how long you read. We keep it in aggregate and never link it to a person.
The only information you hand over directly is an email address (if you subscribe) and the content of any message you send through the form.
How the data is used
- Serve the pages and diagnose faults when something breaks.
- See in bulk which gluten-free recipes pages earn their place and which do not.
- Write back when you contact us.
- Send the newsletter, to subscribers only.
- Satisfy a legal requirement where one exists.
Third parties
This site uses Google Analytics for aggregate statistics and Google AdSense for advertising; our host keeps server logs, and our email service handles the newsletter. Each operates under its own privacy policy and may set cookies.
The services above are operated by companies based in the United States, so data reaching them is processed there. Each publishes its own transfer safeguards, which is the mechanism relied on rather than any arrangement of ours.
If you subscribe
The only thing a subscription requires is an address. It is not sold, not lent, and not used for anything other than the newsletter. Unsubscribing takes it off the list.
Lawful basis
European and United Kingdom law asks for a lawful basis, so here they are: consent for anything you opt into, legitimate interest for the operation and aggregate measurement of the site, and legal obligation where applicable. Consent is reversible on request.
Storage periods
Server logs are rotated by our hosting provider on its own schedule. Analytics data follows the retention period configured in Google Analytics. A newsletter address is kept until you unsubscribe, and a message sent through the contact form is kept as long as the exchange is useful and then deleted.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Every newsletter carries an unsubscribe link that works. Your browser settings control cookies. Readers in the EEA, the UK and California have additional statutory rights, and we honour them for everyone.
Automated processing
No decision about you is made automatically here, and there is no profiling with legal or similarly significant effect. The site publishes articles; it does not score readers.
Readers under 13
Nothing here is directed at children under 13, and we take no data from them on purpose. If a parent tells us it happened anyway, we delete it.
Selling data
No personal information is sold or passed on for independent marketing by someone else, and no data broker features anywhere. Readers in California can take that as the CCPA position: there is no sale to opt out of.
Safeguards
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect what we hold. No system on the internet is perfectly secure, and we will not pretend otherwise.
Raising a problem
Complaints are best raised with us first, through the contact page, because that is quickest. You keep the right to go straight to your data protection authority instead.
Revisions
This page gets edited when our practice changes. The date above tells you when that last happened; a significant change gets said out loud on the site.
