At LiliaKitchen, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This page outlines how we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA).

We may collect and process the following types of personal data:
- Name and email address (e.g., when you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us)
- IP address and browser information (for analytics and site performance)
- Preferences and interactions (e.g., saved recipes, comments, or feedback)
We only collect data that is necessary to provide our services and improve your experience.
How We Use Your Data
We use your personal data to:
- Send newsletters and updates (only if you opt in)
- Respond to inquiries or feedback
- Analyze site usage to improve content and performance
- Ensure security and prevent misuse
We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:
- Consent: You've given clear permission (e.g., subscribing to emails)
- Contract: Data is needed to fulfill a service you requested
- Legal Obligation: We may be required to retain certain data

Your Rights Under GDPR
As an EU/EEA resident, you have the right to:

- Object to or restrict certain types of processing

Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined above. You can request deletion at any time.
Third-Party Services
We may use trusted third-party tools (e.g., Google Analytics, email platforms, social media plugins) that process data on our behalf. These providers are expected to comply with GDPR and maintain appropriate safeguards.
International Transfers
If your data is transferred outside the EU/EEA (e.g., to servers in the U.S.), we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent protections.
