Privacy Policy
Natasha’s Kitchen, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and shared when you visit NatashasKitchen.com (the “Website”), subscribe to our newsletters, participate in giveaways, or interact with our content. It also explains the privacy choices available to you.
By using our Website, you acknowledge the information practices described in this Privacy Policy, subject to your rights and choices under applicable law.
What Information Do We Collect?
We collect information in two primary ways:
Information You Provide: When you subscribe to our newsletters, leave comments, contact us, or participate in giveaways, cooking challenges, or other promotions, you may provide information such as your name, email address, website URL, photos submitted for cooking challenges, mailing address (for prize fulfillment), and other information you choose to submit.
We use Gleam Competitions, a third-party platform, to manage certain giveaways and cooking challenges. When you enter through Gleam, information you submit is collected and processed through their platform and made available to us for administering the promotion. Depending on the entry method, Gleam may also collect information about your entry activity or connected social media accounts. You can review Gleam’s Privacy Policy for more information.
Information Collected Automatically: When you visit our Website, certain information may be collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies. This may include your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages viewed, referring websites, and interactions with our content.
Some information may be collected by third-party service providers that help us operate, analyze, and support our Website, including advertising and analytics providers.
Categories of Personal Information: In the past 12 months we have collected the following categories of personal information: identifiers (such as name, email address, IP address, and cookie or device identifiers); internet or other electronic activity (such as pages viewed and interactions with our Website and emails); approximate geolocation; photos and other content you submit; and inferences about your interests drawn from this information. We collect this information from you, from your browser or device, and from service providers and platforms such as Gleam.
Sensitive Information: We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information, and we do not sell sensitive personal data.
What Do We Use Your Information For?
We may use information collected through our Website for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve our Website.
- To personalize your experience and improve our content.
- To respond to inquiries, comments, and customer service requests.
- To send recipe newsletters and email updates to subscribers and individuals added to our mailing list as disclosed during giveaway entry.
- To administer giveaways, cooking challenges, and other promotions, including verifying entries, randomly selecting winners, contacting winners, and fulfilling prizes.
- To understand Website traffic, visitor engagement, and content performance.
- To support advertising and measure advertising effectiveness.
- To protect our Website, prevent misuse, and maintain security.
- To comply with applicable legal obligations.
Signing up to Receive Email Newsletters
When you subscribe to our email newsletters through our Website, we collect your email address and any other information you voluntarily provide. We use this information to send recipes, newsletters, and other updates from Natasha’s Kitchen.
Giveaways and Cooking Challenges: When you enter certain giveaways or cooking challenges through Gleam Competitions, your email address is added to the Natasha’s Kitchen email newsletter list, as disclosed on the competition entry form. You may also have the option to separately request notifications about future competitions.
Notice of Financial Incentive: Because certain giveaway entries are offered in exchange for joining our newsletter, this may be considered a financial incentive under California law. The material terms are described on each entry form and in the Official Rules. We estimate the value of a newsletter subscriber’s information at approximately $1.86. We calculated this by dividing our total giveaway costs over the past 12 months by the number of subscribers who joined through giveaway entries during that period. Because each entry is offered in exchange for joining our newsletter, the value of the entry is reasonably related to this estimate. You opt in by entering, and you may withdraw at any time by unsubscribing.
We use a third-party email marketing service provider to manage subscriptions, deliver emails, and process related information on our behalf.
We may collect information about how subscribers interact with our emails, including email opens and link clicks, to help us improve our communications.
You may unsubscribe from our newsletters at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included in our emails. You may also contact us at natasha@natashaskitchen.com to request removal from our mailing list or submit a request concerning your personal information.

Global Privacy Control: We treat a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information and of targeted advertising for that browser or device, and our privacy controls will show that your request has been honored. Because there is no common standard for “Do Not Track” browser signals, we do not respond to them.
How We Handle Requests: We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request to access, correct, or delete information. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf, subject to verification. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal requirements. For example, we keep newsletter information until you unsubscribe (and briefly afterward to honor your request), comment information while the comment remains published, giveaway entry information for two years after the promotion ends, and analytics and advertising data for no longer than 26 months.
