Table & Stove is a personal recipe website. This policy explains what personal information may be processed when you use it, why it is used, and how to control it.
1. The data controller
Table & Stove is operated by Pedro Teixeira. Our contact address is Rua 8 n.º 589, 4500-370 Espinho, Portugal. For questions about this policy, privacy requests, or the use of your information, contact hello@tableandstove.com.
2. Information we may process
- Messages you send: your name, email address, and the content of your message when you contact us.
- Technical information: limited information needed to deliver the website, such as IP address, browser type, device information, and server logs. This may be processed by the hosting provider when a page is requested.
- Analytics information: only if you opt in, aggregated information about visits, pages viewed, approximate location, device, browser, and how you arrived at the site.
3. Why we use it and the legal basis
- To respond to a message you send us and manage follow-up correspondence.
- To keep the site secure, available, and working properly. This is based on our legitimate interest in operating the website safely.
- To measure and improve the site using Google Analytics, but only after your clear consent. You can withdraw that consent at any time.
We do not sell personal information. We do not use advertising pixels, behavioural advertising, or automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
4. Google Analytics and Search Console
Google Analytics is used only when you choose “Accept all” in the cookie banner. It helps us understand, in aggregate, which pages are helpful and how visitors reach the site. We do not load Analytics before consent.
We use Google Search Console to understand how Table & Stove appears in Google Search and to manage indexing. Search Console does not place analytics cookies through this website. Google may process data as an independent provider under its own policies and may process data outside your country.
5. Who receives information
Information is shared only where necessary to run the website: with our hosting provider, with Google if you consent to Analytics, and with service providers that support email or security. We do not rent, trade, or sell personal information. We may disclose information where required by law or to protect the site, its users, or our legal rights.
6. How long we keep it
We keep correspondence only for as long as needed to respond and manage the conversation. Technical logs are kept for the period set by the hosting provider. Analytics data is retained according to the settings of the Google Analytics account and is reviewed when the service is activated or changed. We may keep information longer when required to comply with law, resolve a dispute, or enforce our rights.
7. Your choices and rights
You can change your analytics choice at any time through . Depending on the law that applies to you, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting earlier processing.
