Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 01, 2025

1. Introduction

mumsdishes (referred to as “we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the website https://mumsdishes.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect the personal information you provide when you visit or interact with the Site. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy, please contact us at contact@mumsdishes.com.

2. Data Collection

We collect two types of information: personal data that you voluntarily provide and automatically collected data generated by your interaction with the Site. Personal data may include your name, email address, and any other details you submit through comment forms, recipe submissions, or contact forms. Automatically collected data includes your IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, and usage metrics such as pages viewed, time spent on each page, and referral URLs. This information helps us improve the Site’s functionality, personalize content, and ensure a secure environment for all users.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. Any sharing of data is limited to the specific purposes described below and is performed only with trusted service providers who are contractually obligated to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit the Site. We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device for a set period). Cookies enable us to remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and analyze how you interact with the Site. Essential cookies are necessary for the Site to function, while analytical and marketing cookies help us understand user behavior and deliver relevant content.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. However, disabling essential cookies may affect the Site’s functionality. Our cookie consent banner allows you to manage your preferences for analytical and marketing cookies directly from the Site.

4. Analytics (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”), to collect information about how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics uses cookies to generate statistical data such as the number of visitors, pages visited, bounce rate, and geographic location. This information is aggregated and anonymized; it does not identify individual users. The data helps us understand which recipes and features are most popular, allowing us to improve content and user experience.

Google may also use the collected data for its own analytics and advertising services. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt‑Out Browser Add‑On or by disabling cookies in your browser settings. For more details, see Google’s Privacy Policy.

5. Email Subscriptions

Visitors may subscribe to our newsletter or recipe updates by providing an email address. When you subscribe, we store your email address and any additional information you voluntarily provide (e.g., name, dietary preferences). We use this data solely to send you the requested communications and occasional promotional offers related to mumsdishes. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link included in every email or by contacting us at contact@mumsdishes.com.

Email addresses are never shared with third‑party marketers. We employ industry‑standard security measures (TLS encryption) to protect the transmission of email communications. Subscription data is retained until you request deletion or until the account becomes inactive for a period of 24 months, after which it is automatically purged.

6. Third‑Party Services

The Site integrates with several third‑party social platforms to enhance sharing and community engagement. These platforms include Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook. When you click a social sharing button, the respective platform may receive information such as the URL of the page you are sharing, your IP address, and any data you have already provided to that platform (e.g., your Facebook profile). These services operate under their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them:

We do not control the data practices of these third parties and are not responsible for any misuse of your information by them. However, we only embed the official sharing widgets provided by each platform, which are designed to limit data collection to the minimum necessary for sharing functionality.

7. Advertising & Ezoic

mumsdishes partners with Ezoic to display and optimize advertisements on the Site. Ezoic uses a variety of technologies to serve personalized ads, including collection of your IP address, device information, pages viewed, time spent on the Site, and browser characteristics. This data enables Ezoic to match ads that are more relevant to your interests, thereby improving user experience and supporting the Site’s revenue model.

Ezoic’s privacy practices are outlined in their own privacy policy, which you can review at https://www.ezoic.com/privacy-policy/. You may manage your advertising preferences and opt out of personalized ads through the cookie consent banner displayed on the Site, or by using the industry‑wide opt‑out mechanisms provided by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) and the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI).

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), secure password storage (hashed and salted), regular security audits, and limited access to data on a need‑to‑know basis. While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Data Retention

Personal data collected through the Site is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. For example, subscription emails are kept until you unsubscribe, while analytics data is retained in an aggregated, anonymized form for up to 24 months. If you request deletion of your personal data, we will act on the request within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days, unless a legal obligation requires us to retain the data longer.

10. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your data. You also have the right to object to direct marketing and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@mumsdishes.com. We will verify your identity and respond to your request in accordance with applicable law.

11. International Transfers

The Site is operated from the United States, and your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the U.S. or other jurisdictions that may have different data‑protection laws than your country of residence. By using the Site, you consent to such transfers. We employ appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, to ensure that your data receives a comparable level of protection.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or technological developments. When we make material changes, we will post a revised version on the Site with an updated “Last Updated” date and, where appropriate, provide a notice via email or a banner on the Site. We encourage you to review this policy periodically for any updates.
