Myflavorkitchen GDPR Compliance Policy

Last Updated: April 03, 2026

1. Introduction

Myflavorkitchen (hereafter “we”, “our”, “us”) operates the website myflavorkitchen.info (the “Site”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring compliance with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, the legal basis for processing, and your rights as a data subject. For any questions or concerns, please contact us at [email protected].

2. Types of Personal Data We Collect

Email addresses: When you subscribe to our newsletter, request recipes, or contact us, we collect your email address.
Cookies and similar tracking technologies: We use first‑party cookies to remember your preferences and to provide a personalized browsing experience. Third‑party cookies from analytics providers help us understand how visitors use the Site.
Analytics data: We use Google Analytics and Matomo to gather information such as device type, operating system, browser, referral source, and page views. This data is anonymised and aggregated where possible.

3. How We Protect Your Data

Secure Transmission: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3 (HTTPS).
Secure Storage: Personal data is stored on encrypted, access‑controlled servers located in the EU. We employ industry‑standard security measures such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular vulnerability scans.
Limited Retention: We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or as required by law. Email addresses are kept for the duration of your subscription or until you unsubscribe. Cookie data is retained for the period specified in the cookie policy. Analytics data is stored for a maximum of 12 months and is then anonymised or deleted.
Access Controls: Only authorised staff with a legitimate need to process personal data can access it. All staff undergo data protection training and sign confidentiality agreements.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data on the following legal bases:

Consent: When you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter or provide your email address, you give us explicit consent to store and use that information for communications and marketing purposes.
Legitimate Interest: We rely on legitimate interest to process analytics data and use cookies to improve the functionality of the Site, personalise content, and analyse traffic patterns. We ensure that these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms by conducting a balancing test and providing you with clear opt‑out mechanisms.

5. Your GDPR Rights

Under the GDPR you have the following rights regarding your personal data. We are committed to respecting these rights and will respond to any lawful request within 30 days.

Right to Access

You have the right to obtain confirmation that we are processing your personal data, to receive a copy of that data, and to know how it is being used. Submit a request via email to [email protected] and we will provide you with the requested information.

Right to Rectification

If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may ask us to correct it. Provide the correct information and we will update our records promptly.

Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

When you unsubscribe from our communications or if the data is no longer necessary, you can request that we delete it. We will remove the data from our active databases and, where possible, from backups, within the 30‑day period.

Right to Restrict Processing

If you contest the accuracy of the data or the legality of the processing, you may ask us to restrict its use. During the restriction period, we will only store the data for compliance with legal obligations or for the enforcement of our contractual rights.

Right to Data Portability

You can request a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine‑readable format. We will provide the data in a format that allows you to transfer it to another controller if requested.

Right to Object

At any time, you may object to the processing of your data for direct marketing or profiling purposes. Upon receipt of your objection, we will stop processing your data for those purposes unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

Right to Withdraw Consent

If you previously gave consent for us to use your data, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that relied on consent before it was withdrawn.

6. How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of the rights outlined above, please send a written request to [email protected]. Include the following information to help us verify your identity and locate your data:

Your full name and contact details.
A brief description of the request (e.g., “I want to delete my email address from your database”).
Any supporting documentation that may help us confirm your identity (e.g., a copy of a government ID).

We will acknowledge receipt of your request within 5 business days and respond with the requested action or a detailed explanation if we need more information. If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the EU member state where you reside.

7. Response Time and Complaint Procedure

All GDPR‑related requests will be processed and responded to within 30 calendar days from the date we receive your request. In exceptional cases where the request is complex, we may extend the period by an additional 30 days, but we will inform you of the delay and the new deadline. If you believe we have failed to comply with the GDPR, you may file a complaint with the supervisory authority in your country or with the European Data Protection Board.

8. Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to modify this policy at any time. Any changes will be posted on the Site and the updated policy will be effective immediately upon publication. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your personal data.
