ViralEats does not require an account to browse recipes and does not maintain a visitor profile database. Our hosting provider may process standard request information such as an IP address, browser and device characteristics, request time, and security or performance logs in order to deliver and protect the site.

If you mail us about support, privacy, or accessibility, we process the contact details and information you include so we can respond. If ingredient shopping is enabled and you request a cart, we process the selected recipe and its ingredient list to make that request. We do not ask you to enter payment-card information on ViralEats.

We use limited technical information to serve pages, protect the cart endpoint from abuse, diagnose availability problems, and maintain the site. We use correspondence to respond to a request you send us. Recipe and ingredient information is used only to create the ingredient-shopping destination you request, when that optional service is available.

ViralEats uses Google Analytics 4 to measure traffic in aggregate: which pages are viewed, roughly where visitors are (country or city level), and what kind of device and browser they use. Google sets its measurement cookies (_ga and _ga_*, lasting up to two years) on this domain to do this and processes the data under Google's privacy policy; you can block these cookies in your browser or opt out on every site with Google's opt-out browser add-on. The site is also measured by Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless and aggregate. ViralEats does not use advertising cookies, session replay, or other third-party visitor-tracking tools, and does not use local storage for visitor tracking.

If you choose a display theme, ViralEats stores a first-party ve_theme cookie containing only light, dark, or system. Its purpose is to remember that display choice for up to one year; it is not used for advertising, analytics, or cross-site tracking. You can remove it in your browser settings at any time.

ViralEats is hosted by Vercel. Vercel processes hosting and operational data under its own agreements and privacy documentation. Ingredient-shopping actions are disabled until an approved provider configuration is in place. If you choose an enabled Instacart action, Instacart receives the recipe and ingredient information needed to provide its service, and its own terms and privacy notice govern its destination.

ViralEats does not retain an account or profile for recipe visitors; Google Analytics data is kept under the retention setting of our Analytics property. Operational request and security logs are retained only through the hosting configuration and for the period needed to operate, secure, or meet legal obligations for the service. We retain mailed correspondence only for as long as reasonably needed to resolve the request, keep a record of the response, or meet legal obligations.

You may ask about the personal information connected to a request you sent us, subject to applicable law and verification. Mail your request to the address above, attention ViralEats Privacy, and include enough information for us to understand and respond to it. ViralEats does not sell personal information or use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Hosting providers may process information in countries other than the one where you live. ViralEats is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. We will update this notice before materially changing these practices and will revise the date at the top of this page.
