Privacy and No Spam Policy

Effective April 2014

We at “Cook Like a Jamaican” collectively , “CLJ” are committed to respecting your privacy. Here’s our privacy policy in plain, simple English. We respect your privacy. We strongly dislike unsolicited email. We think we need to ask your permission before we use any information you give us for any other purpose than to improve the product, and improve our service to you. This means we don’t sell or rent your information to any party.
 
1. What sort of information is requested from me on this site? 
If you elect to sign up for access to our recipe archive or membership, we need your email address. This is so we (or other users) can contact you in the event that your posted recipes or comments have problems. If you purchase a product or membership, or provide additional optional information to us, we keep it private. You can always opt-in or opt-out of our newsletter at any time.
 
2. What is done with my email address?
The email address that you give us will be used to send you any newsletters that you signed up for.
 
3. What is done with the information collected by CLJ? 
We refer to it to improve the service and product we deliver to you. Over time, we will be customizing CLJ further to make it even more focused on your individual needs, and this information may be used in that effort. Personally-identifiable information is never shared, leased, sold or provided to third parties.
 
4. Use of cookies
A cookie is a small text file containing certain pieces of information that a website server creates and puts on your computer. CJC uses persistent cookies to enable us to better serve you when you visit our site. Persistent cookies are written or stored on your hard drive until the expiry date. CJC’s persistent cookies are used, for example, to retain information that you provided so that the CJC website can be personalized accordingly, or to determine if a certain user has previously completed one of our surveys, so that he/she will not be surveyed again. The cookies used by CLJ are designed so they do not reveal any personal information on their own. By accessing our site, you consent to the use of cookies and agree to have your browser set to accept cookies. If you want to access our site but don’t agree to receive cookies, you can do so by modifying the preferences of your browser.

5. Changes in this Privacy Statement.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, by means of a notice on our home page, or through notice posted other places we deem appropriate. We are committed to privacy, and we support current industry initiatives to preserve individual privacy rights on the Internet.
