What we collect

Server logs. Like every website, our server records technical data of each request: IP address, time, page requested, browser type. We use these logs only to keep the website running and secure, and delete them within 30 days.

Settings in your browser. The website remembers your choice of metric or US measures in your own browser (local storage). It never leaves your device.

Email. If you write to us, we use your message and address only to answer you.

Visitor statistics

Cloudflare Web Analytics, without cookies. Our website runs on Cloudflare, and we use its privacy-first statistics to count page views and see where visitors come from (country, device, referring site). It sets no cookies, does not track you across sites and does not build a profile of you.

Google Analytics, only if you agree. When you click «Accept» in the cookie banner, we also use Google Analytics (Google LLC) to see which pages are read and how people move through the site. It sets cookies (_ga) in your browser, and Google processes the data as our processor; IP addresses are not stored. If you click «Decline», no Google script is loaded at all. You can change your choice at any time under «Cookie settings» at the bottom of every page.

What we don't do

No advertising networks, no advertising cookies, no selling or sharing of personal data. If we add a newsletter, this page will say so before it starts, and it will always need your explicit sign-up.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the EU and UK GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act), you have the right to ask what data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, and to complain to your data protection authority. Write to us and we will answer within 30 days.

Chefs and people in our stories
