At Meal Simplify, we take your privacy seriously and want to be transparent about how we manage your personal information. This page explains our approach to data protection under the rules of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which ensures individuals in the EU have clear rights and control over their personal data.
To learn more about how your information is collected, stored, and used across the site, you can also read our Privacy Policy.
What Is GDPR?
GDPR is a data protection law designed to give residents of the European Union more control over their personal information. It requires businesses and websites to be open about what data they collect, how they use it, and how individuals can manage their privacy preferences.
Here at Meal Simplify, we follow these standards not only for EU visitors but for all users. Whether you’re exploring recipes or signing up for updates, your personal data is treated with care and respect.

- Technical details, such as your device type, general location, or browsing behavior
- User preferences, like saved recipes or site settings you choose
We also use cookies to help tailor your experience. For more on this, see our [Cookies Policy].

We only work with service providers that respect data privacy and offer strong protection policies.
Sharing with Trusted Services
Sometimes we rely on third-party tools — like analytics platforms or email services — to help us understand how the site is performing or to send content to subscribers. These partners only access the data they need and must handle it responsibly under GDPR rules.
