Privacy Policy

1. What This Page Covers

Klundo Criolla is a small editorial site about Puerto Rican home cooking. This page describes, in plain language, what happens behind the scenes when you read it: what our hosting records automatically, what cookies are involved, how advertising works on the site, and how you can reach us. It applies to every page under this domain.

2. There Is Nothing to Buy Here

This site does not sell anything. There is no shopping cart, no account system, no order form and no payment page anywhere on Klundo Criolla. Because of that, we never collect card numbers, billing addresses or order history, since none of that machinery exists here in the first place.

3. Automatic Server Records

When your browser requests a page from us, our hosting provider logs basic technical details, things like the page you asked for, the time of the request, a general device or browser category and an IP address. This is routine web infrastructure behavior, kept mainly to keep the site online, spot errors and understand traffic at a general level. We do not use this information to identify a specific reader by name.

4. Cookies on This Site

A cookie is a small file a website can leave in your browser. Klundo Criolla itself does not use cookies to alter what a page shows a given visitor, the recipes and layout are the same for everyone who arrives here. Outside services referenced below, most notably Google, may place their own cookies once their code runs on a page. Your browser settings let you view, block or remove cookies at any time.

5. Google AdSense

This site may display advertising served through Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners can use cookies or comparable identifiers to tailor the ads shown to you based on prior browsing. Details on how Google handles this are published at policies.google.com/technologies/ads, Google's broader privacy approach is explained at policies.google.com/privacy, and ad personalization can be adjusted directly at google.com/settings/ads.

6. Analytics

We may use analytics software to see, in aggregate, which recipes get read, how visitors move through the site and where the layout could be improved. These reports describe overall patterns across many visits rather than singling out one reader, and any related cookies fall under the same browser controls described above.

7. If You Write to Us

Should you contact us using the details in the footer of this site, we hold on to whatever you include in that message, usually a name and an email address, purely so we can reply. That information is used for the conversation itself and is never folded into a marketing list without your separate, explicit consent.

8. How Long Information Is Kept

Technical server logs are retained only for as long as needed for security and troubleshooting purposes and are cycled out afterward. Messages sent to us are kept for a reasonable period while we address the matter raised, then deleted.

9. Your Choices

You are free to clear or block cookies from your browser settings at any time, and to use the Google links in section 5 to manage how ads are personalized for you. Turning off cookies may affect how advertisements or embedded elements display, but every recipe on this site will keep working normally either way.

10. Links to Other Sites

Where a recipe references an outside source for further reading, that link is offered for convenience only. Once you leave Klundo Criolla, that other site's own privacy practices apply, not this one.

11. Children

This site is written for a general audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe a child has shared information with us, please get in touch and we will remove it.

12. Visitors From Outside the United States

Klundo Criolla can be read from anywhere. If you are visiting from a country other than the one where our hosting and service providers operate, be aware that your information may be processed under a different set of data protection rules than the ones in your own country.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may revise this policy from time to time as the site evolves or as applicable rules change. The date shown at the top of this page always reflects the most recent version, so check back occasionally if you want the latest wording.
