Privacy
Policy

The Grill Dads (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates thegrilldads.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you visit our Site or interact with our services. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.

We may collect the following categories of information:

• Information you provide directly — such as your name, email address, shipping address, and payment details when you subscribe to our newsletter, make a purchase, or submit a contact form
• Usage data — including IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs, collected automatically when you use the Site
• Cookies and tracking technologies — small files placed on your device to help us recognize you on return visits, analyze traffic, and improve functionality

We use the information we collect to:

• Process and fulfill orders, including sending confirmation and shipping notifications
• Send newsletters, recipes, and promotional content if you have opted in — you may unsubscribe at any time
• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
• Analyze Site usage and improve our content, features, and user experience
• Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
• Comply with legal obligations

We use first-party and third-party cookies to remember your preferences, analyze how visitors use the Site (via services such as Google Analytics), and serve relevant advertising if applicable. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Most browsers also allow you to disable cookies entirely or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on the Site.

We may share your personal information with:

• Service providers who help us operate the Site and deliver services, such as payment processors, shipping carriers, and email platforms — these providers are contractually obligated to protect your data
• Professional advisors, such as lawyers and accountants, under confidentiality agreements
• Law enforcement or government authorities when required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or property of The Grill Dads, its users, or the public

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. Purchase and order records are retained for a minimum of seven years to comply with financial and tax regulations. You may request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us.

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit and access controls limiting who can view your personal data. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure — we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including social media platforms, affiliate retailers, and partner brands. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of any third-party sites.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
• Request deletion of your personal data (“right to be forgotten”)
• Object to or restrict certain processing of your data
• Request portability of your data in a machine-readable format
• Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent

The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete the information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please contact us via the Contact page on this Site. We are committed to working with you to resolve any privacy concerns promptly and fairly.
