1. Who we are
Kubo Cooks publishes Filipino recipes, cooking videos, and related food content at kubocooks.com. For privacy questions or requests, email kubocooking@gmail.com.
2. Information we receive
Information you choose to provide
If you email us, we receive your email address and the information included in your message. Please do not send sensitive personal information that is not needed for your request.
Information collected with your permission
If you allow optional analytics, Google Analytics may receive information such as your device and browser type, approximate location, referring page, pages viewed, and interactions with the site. We use this information in aggregate to understand and improve Kubo Cooks.
Information stored on your device
Saved recipes, measurement preferences, menu state, and your privacy choice may be stored in your browser using local storage. This information remains on that device unless you clear your browser data.
3. Cookies and privacy choices
Optional analytics is disabled until you select “Allow analytics.” If you decline, Kubo Cooks does not load Google Analytics through our consent control. Essential device-local features may still use local storage so the site can remember choices you ask it to remember.
You can review or change your selection at any time by choosing Privacy choices in the website footer. Clearing your browser data may also reset your choice.
4. Google Analytics
When permitted, Kubo Cooks uses Google Analytics to measure site usage and performance. Google processes this information under its own privacy terms. You can learn more through Google’s Privacy Policy and the Google Analytics opt-out tools.
5. YouTube and external services
Recipe pages may include videos hosted by YouTube using YouTube’s privacy-enhanced embed mode. Loading or playing an embedded video can still allow YouTube and Google to receive device, network, and interaction information under their policies. Kubo Cooks also loads its display typeface through Google Fonts, which can send network and device information such as your IP address and browser type to Google. Links to social networks, retailers, or other websites take you to services that control their own privacy practices.
6. Advertising
Kubo Cooks may use Google AdSense or other advertising partners to support the site. When advertising is active, third-party vendors, including Google, may place and read cookies in your browser and may use web beacons, IP addresses, or other identifiers to serve, measure, and personalize ads where permitted.
Google’s advertising cookies can enable Google and its partners to show ads based on visits to this and other websites. You can manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. You can also learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services. Before personalized advertising is activated where consent is required, Kubo Cooks will use an appropriate consent-management platform and provide the required controls.
7. How we use information
- To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the website.
- To understand which recipes and features are useful to visitors.
- To answer messages, questions, and partnership inquiries.
- To detect misuse and meet legal or regulatory obligations.
We do not sell personal information provided directly to us.
8. Retention and security
Email correspondence is retained only as long as reasonably needed for the conversation, business records, or legal obligations. Analytics information is retained according to the settings and policies of the analytics provider. Device-local information remains until you remove it.
We use reasonable safeguards, but no internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent concerning your personal information. Email kubocooking@gmail.com and describe your request. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
10. Children’s privacy
Kubo Cooks is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
