Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 19, 2026
Welcome to Warm Dinner! I’m Harper, the home cook behind warmdinner.online. Your privacy matters to me, and I want you to feel comfortable and safe while you browse my recipes, sign up for the newsletter, or just poke around for dinner inspiration. This page explains what information I collect, how I use it, and your choices about your data. If you have any questions, just email me at [email protected] or visit the contact page.
What Information I Collect
I only collect the information I truly need to make Warm Dinner work for you. Here’s what that looks like:
- Email Address: If you sign up for my newsletter, I’ll ask for your email so I can send you updates, recipes, and a little kitchen encouragement.
- Automatically Collected Data: Like most websites, I use Google Analytics to see which recipes are popular and how folks use the site. This includes things like your browser type, device, pages visited, and how long you stay. This info is collected in a way that doesn’t directly identify you.
- Comments: If you leave a comment on a recipe, you can choose to share your name and email. This helps me keep the conversation friendly and spam-free.
How I Use Your Information
- Newsletter: Your email is only used to send you the Warm Dinner newsletter. You can unsubscribe anytime—just click the link at the bottom of any email or let me know at [email protected].
- Site Improvements: I use Google Analytics to understand what’s working and what’s not, so I can make Warm Dinner better for you and other home cooks.
- Comments: Your name and email (if you choose to share them) help me respond to your comments and keep the community welcoming.
Cookies & Tracking
Warm Dinner uses cookies (the digital kind, not the chocolate chip kind) to make the site run smoothly and help me understand how visitors use it. Cookies are small files stored on your device. You can turn off cookies in your browser settings if you prefer, but some features might not work as expected.
Google Analytics
I use Google Analytics to gather anonymous stats about how people use Warm Dinner. This helps me see which recipes are a hit and which need a little more love. Google Analytics may set cookies and collect data like your IP address, but it doesn’t give me any way to identify you personally.
Children’s Privacy
Warm Dinner is meant for grown-ups and families, but I don’t knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you think your child has shared personal info here, please email me at [email protected] and I’ll remove it right away.
How I Protect Your Information
Your privacy is important to me. I use reasonable security measures to keep your information safe. But remember, no website can guarantee 100% security. If you ever have concerns, please reach out.
Sharing Your Information
I don’t sell, trade, or rent your personal information to anyone. I may share information with trusted service providers (like my email newsletter platform or website host) who help me run Warm Dinner, but only as needed and never for their own marketing.
Your Rights & Choices
- Unsubscribe: You can unsubscribe from the newsletter anytime by clicking the link in any email or contacting me.
- Access & Deletion: You can ask to see, update, or delete your personal information. Just email [email protected] and I’ll help you out.
- Cookies: You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings.
California Privacy Rights (CCPA)
If you live in California, you have special rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):
- You can ask what personal information I have about you and how it’s used.
- You can ask me to delete your personal information.
- You can ask that I don’t sell your personal information (I don’t sell it anyway).
To exercise any of these rights, just email [email protected] or visit the contact page. I’ll respond as quickly as possible—usually within 30 days.
Links to Other Sites
Sometimes I link to other food blogs, kitchen tools, or resources I love. I’m not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, so please check their policies if you visit them.
Updates to This Policy
I may update this privacy policy from time to time to keep things clear and current. If I make big changes, I’ll let you know on the site or by email. The latest version will always be here, with the date at the top.
Contact Me
If you have any questions about this policy or your data, please email [email protected] or visit the contact page. I’m always happy to help.
Thanks for trusting me with your information and for being part of the Warm Dinner community!
