Last Updated: December 06, 2025

Our Commitment to Data Protection

At cookingbiteshub we respect the privacy of our users and are fully committed to complying with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, the legal bases for processing, the security measures we have in place, and, most importantly, the rights you enjoy under the GDPR.

Data We Collect

We only collect data that is necessary for providing a high‑quality cooking experience. The categories of personal data we process are:

How We Protect Your Data

We employ a layered security approach to ensure that your personal information remains confidential, integral, and available only to authorised personnel:

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data on one or more of the following lawful bases:

If we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time (see “Right to Withdraw Consent” below).

Your GDPR Rights

Under the GDPR you have the following rights regarding your personal data. Each right is accompanied by a Bootstrap icon for quick reference.

Right to Access

You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, together with information about how we process it, the purposes of processing, and the recipients of your data.

Right to Rectification

If any of your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it corrected or completed without undue delay.

Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

You may ask us to delete your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, when you withdraw consent, or when you object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds.

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit the processing of your data while we verify the accuracy of the data, or while a dispute about the processing is being resolved.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine‑readable format and to transmit that data to another controller without hindrance.

Right to Object

You may object to processing that is based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task carried out in the public interest. This includes direct marketing activities.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on your consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of the rights listed above, please contact our Data Protection Officer (DPO) using the details below. We will verify your identity to protect your privacy and will respond within 30 calendar days, as required by the GDPR.

When you contact us, please include:

  1. Your full name and contact details.
  2. A clear description of the right you wish to invoke (e.g., “I would like to exercise my Right to Access”).
  3. Any reference numbers or account identifiers that can help us locate your data.

We may ask for additional information to confirm your identity before fulfilling the request.

Data Retention Periods

We retain personal data only for as long as it is necessary:

When the retention period expires, the data is securely destroyed or anonymised.

International Data Transfers

All data processing takes place within the European Economic Area (EEA). If a transfer outside the EEA becomes necessary (e.g., for third‑party services), we will ensure that appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses are in place.

Changes to This Policy

We review this GDPR Compliance Policy regularly. Any material changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the website after changes indicates acceptance of the revised policy.

Contact & Supervisory Authority

If you have concerns about how we handle your personal data that are not resolved after contacting us, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection supervisory authority in your EU member state.

For any questions regarding this policy, please email our DPO at gdpr@cookingbiteshub.com.
