Welcome to The Egyptian Kitchen. Your privacy is important to me. This policy explains what information is collected and how it’s used.
1. Who Runs This Site?
This blog is a recipe site managed by Anne-Marie Bissada, based in France. You can reach me at info@theegyptiankitchen.com for any privacy-related questions.
2. What Data is Collected?
I only collect information that you voluntarily provide or that is necessary for the site to function:
- Comments: When you leave a comment, the site collects the name and email address you provide, along with your IP address to help prevent spam.
- Cookies: Like most sites, I use cookies to understand how people use the blog (e.g., which recipes are most popular). Please see my Cookie Policy for more details.
3. Why is This Data Collected?
Under the GDPR, the “legal basis” for processing your data is:
- Consent
- Legitimate Interest: To keep the site secure and respond to your comments.
4. Who Sees Your Data?
I do not sell or rent your personal information. Your data is only shared with trusted third-party services necessary to run the site, such as:
- Web Hosting: O2Switch
- Spam Protection: Akismet
- Analytics: Google Analytics
5. Your Rights (GDPR)
Since I am based in France, you have the right to:
- Access the data I have about you.
- Correct or Delete your personal information.
- Object to processing (like unsubscribing from a newsletter).
To exercise these rights, just send me an email at info@theegyptiankitchen.com.
6. Data Retention
I keep your comments indefinitely so the conversation stays intact.
