Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

1. Who We Are

Dzintara Virtuve (renpit.com) is an independent editorial journal publishing traditional Latvian and Baltic recipes. This policy explains what limited information we collect from visitors, why we collect it, and the choices available to you. It applies to renpit.com and every page published under this domain.

2. Information We Collect

We do not ask readers to create an account, and we do not sell recipes, ingredients or any physical product. The information we may collect is limited to:

• Standard server logs, such as your browser type, general device type, referring page and the date and time of your visit.
• Aggregated, non-identifying analytics about which pages and recipes are read most often, when analytics tools are enabled on this site.
• Any information you choose to send us directly, such as your name and email address, if you write to us with a question or correction.

3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files a website can place on your device to remember settings or measure usage. This site may use cookies for two purposes: to support basic site functionality (such as remembering that you have already expanded a recipe) and to support analytics and advertising, described below. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when a cookie is being placed; refusing cookies will not prevent you from reading any recipe on this site.

4. Google AdSense and Advertising

This site may display advertising served through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this or other websites. You can learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services, and review your options for controlling ad personalization, at policies.google.com/technologies/ads and at google.com/settings/ads. Google's own privacy practices are described at policies.google.com/privacy.

5. Analytics

Where enabled, analytics tools help us understand, in aggregate, which recipes readers find useful, how long a page holds attention and which regions our audience reads from. This data is used to improve the site's content and is not used to build an individual profile of a named visitor.

6. How We Use Information

Any information collected through this site is used only to operate, maintain and improve the journal, to respond to messages sent to us, and to understand overall readership. We do not rent or sell visitor information to third parties.

7. Data Retention

Server logs and aggregated analytics are retained only as long as needed to support the purposes described in this policy. Correspondence you send us is kept only as long as necessary to answer your question or resolve a correction to the site.

8. Your Choices

You can browse this entire journal, including every recipe, without providing any personal information. Where cookies are used for advertising, you can manage or opt out of personalized advertising through the Google links above or through your browser's privacy settings.

9. Children's Privacy

This site is a general audience cooking publication and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
