Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 9, 2026

The Tiki Recipe Box respects your privacy. We built this site to help people find cocktail recipes, ingredients, substitutions, and related reference information without requiring you to create an account or provide unnecessary personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you use The Tiki Recipe Box and how that information is handled.

Information we collect

You can browse and use The Tiki Recipe Box without creating an account.

We do not currently ask you to provide personal information such as your name, mailing address, payment information, or account credentials simply to use the site.

Like most websites, some technical information may be processed automatically when you visit, including:

  • IP address and general location information
  • browser and device type
  • operating system
  • pages or URLs requested
  • referring website
  • date and time of requests
  • technical and security logs

This information is primarily used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website.

If we later add features that allow you to contact us, create an account, subscribe to communications, or otherwise submit information, we may collect the information you choose to provide. This Privacy Policy will be updated if our practices materially change.

Hosting and Vercel

The Tiki Recipe Box is hosted using Vercel.

Vercel may process technical information associated with requests to the website as necessary to provide hosting, networking, security, performance, and related infrastructure services.

If Vercel Web Analytics or Vercel Speed Insights is enabled for the project, those services may process technical information to provide aggregated website usage and performance metrics. They are designed to limit identification of individual visitors.

You can learn more about Vercel's privacy practices through Vercel's Privacy Notice.

Cookies and tracking

The Tiki Recipe Box does not currently use advertising cookies or tracking technologies intended to follow you across unrelated websites.

If Vercel Web Analytics is enabled, it does not use third-party cookies to track visitors across websites.

If we introduce services in the future that require cookies or consent under applicable law, we will update this policy and provide appropriate choices or consent controls where required.

How we use information

Technical information may be used to:

  • provide and operate the website;
  • maintain security and prevent abuse;
  • diagnose errors and technical problems;
  • understand website traffic and performance;
  • improve the usability and reliability of the service; and
  • comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not sell personal information.

We do not use personal information for targeted advertising.

Legal bases for processing

If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction requiring a legal basis for processing, we generally process information when:

  • it is necessary for our legitimate interests in operating, securing, maintaining, and improving the website;
  • it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation; or
  • you have given consent, where consent is required.

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we seek to limit processing to what is reasonably necessary to operate and improve the website.

Service providers

We may use third-party service providers to operate the website.

These providers may process limited information on our behalf only as necessary to provide their services. Our current infrastructure provider includes Vercel. The site also loads web fonts from Adobe Fonts (Typekit), which may receive technical request information when fonts are fetched.

If we add material third-party services such as advertising networks, email marketing providers, payment processors, or additional analytics platforms, we will update this policy as appropriate.

International data transfers

Our website and service providers may process information in the United States or other countries.

If you access the website from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with data-transfer requirements, information may therefore be transferred outside your country.

Where required by applicable law, service providers may use recognized safeguards for international transfers, such as contractual data-protection mechanisms.

Data retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including operating and securing the website and meeting legal obligations.

Technical logs and analytics information may be retained according to the retention practices of our hosting and analytics providers.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning your personal information, including the right to:

  • request access to personal information we hold about you;
  • request correction of inaccurate information;
  • request deletion of certain information;
  • object to or restrict certain processing;
  • withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
  • request a portable copy of certain information.

Residents of California and certain other U.S. states may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws.

We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

If you believe your privacy rights have been violated and you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you may also have the right to submit a complaint to your applicable data protection authority.

Children

The Tiki Recipe Box contains information about alcoholic beverages and is not designed or marketed for children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the website.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures, including the security features provided by our hosting infrastructure, to help protect the website and information processed through it.

No internet service can guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the website or applicable legal requirements change.

When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
