Eat Grove (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us when you visit eatgrove.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you browse our recipe content, subscribe to our newsletter, or otherwise interact with the Site.
This Privacy Policy is intended for a U.S.-based audience and is written with California privacy requirements in mind, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), where applicable.

We do not require you to create an account to browse the Site, and we do not sell products or services through the Site at this time.

When you visit the Site, certain information may be collected automatically through standard web technologies, such as cookies, server logs, and similar tools. This may include:

If you sign up for our newsletter, we will use your email address to send you recipe updates, site announcements, and related content from Eat Grove. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails or by contacting us directly at [email protected].
We may use a third-party email service provider to manage newsletter delivery, subscriber lists, and email performance. That provider may process your email address and related subscription data on our behalf.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Eat Grove may use cookies and similar technologies to support the Site’s basic functionality, remember preferences, and understand how visitors interact with our content.
Cookies may be used for purposes such as:
- Site functionality and security
- Analytics and performance measurement
- Understanding which recipes and pages are most popular
You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, some parts of the Site may not function properly.
5. Analytics
We may use analytics tools to better understand how visitors use the Site, including which pages are visited, how long users stay, and what content is most helpful. These tools may collect information such as your IP address, browser details, device information, and browsing behavior on the Site.
Analytics data helps us improve our recipe content, site navigation, and overall user experience.
6. Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure
At this time, Eat Grove does not use affiliate links and does not participate in affiliate marketing programs on the Site. We also do not currently rely on sponsored content as a monetization method.
If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any required disclosures.
7. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary sense of the word. However, we may share information in limited circumstances, including with:
- Service providers: third parties that help us operate the Site, send emails, host content, analyze traffic, or provide technical support
- Legal authorities: when required to comply with law, regulation, legal process, or government request
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets
- Protection of rights: when necessary to protect our rights, users, or the security of the Site
We expect service providers to use personal information only as needed to perform services for us and in accordance with applicable law.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide newsletter services, respond to inquiries, maintain records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
If you unsubscribe from our newsletter, we may retain limited information such as your email address on a suppression list to ensure we do not send you future emails unless you re-subscribe or otherwise request communication.
9. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect, use, disclose, and share
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Request deletion of personal information, subject to certain exceptions
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, if applicable
- Limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information, if applicable
- Not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your privacy rights
Because Eat Grove does not currently sell personal information, the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” right may not apply in the same way as it would for businesses that engage in such practices. If our practices change, we will update this Policy and provide the appropriate opt-out mechanisms.
How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any privacy rights that may apply to you, please contact us at [email protected] or visit our Contact page. We may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.
If you are a California resident and would like to make a privacy request, please include enough detail for us to understand and process your request. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.
10. Email Communications and Unsubscribing
If you receive emails from us, you may opt out at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us at [email protected]. Please note that even if you unsubscribe from marketing emails, we may still send you non-promotional messages related to your request, such as responses to inquiries or important administrative notices.
11. Children’s Privacy
Eat Grove is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at [email protected] so we can review and delete the information if appropriate.
12. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
13. Third-Party Links and Services
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, tools, or services that are not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of those third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.
14. International Visitors
Although Eat Grove primarily serves a U.S. audience, visitors may access the Site from outside the United States. If you do so, please understand that your information may be processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your country of residence.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other operational needs. When we do, we will revise the “Effective Date” above. Your continued use of the Site after any update means you accept the revised Policy.
