Your privacy mattress to us at Yappy Kitchen LLC, and it is one of our top priorities. This Privacy Policy has been established to keep you informed about how we collect data and how it is used.
As the Website continues to grow, we may update this policy periodically. The date of the latest revision will always be posted at the top of this page.
We collect two types of information:
- Information you provide voluntarily. This may include your name and email address when you sign up for our newsletter, contact us, or leave a comment on a post.
- Information we automatically collect from others. This may include the date and time you accessed the Website, which pages you visited, the type of device and browser you used, and geographic data like your city, state, country, and IP address.
We do NOT purchase lists from third parties.
We do NOT ask our readers to create an account on the Website, nor do we sell products or services directly from the Website. Therefore, we do not collect your physical street address, phone number, credit card numbers, banking information, or passwords.
We do NOT sell, give, or trade your information with anyone. Ever.

Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me", your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
To Whom We Share Your Data
We do not share your data.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
Your Rights to Your Data
If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
