Personal information refers to data that can identify you as an individual. When you create an account on FeastWave.site, subscribe to our recipe alerts, or make a purchase in our gourmet marketplace, we may collect:

  • Contact Details: Your full name, email address, phone number, and mailing address. For instance, if you sign up for our weekly “FeastWave Delights” newsletter, we use your email to send curated recipe roundups and exclusive cooking tips.
  • Account Credentials: Username, password (stored securely via hashing), and profile preferences, such as dietary restrictions (e.g., vegan, gluten-free) or favorite cuisines, which help us tailor recommendations on FeastWave.site.
  • Payment Information: When you order ingredients or kitchen tools via our e-commerce features, we process credit card details, billing addresses, and transaction IDs through secure third-party gateways like Stripe or PayPal. We do not store full card numbers on our servers.

This behavioral data helps us suggest “must-try” dishes or notify you about trending feasts, all while maintaining your anonymity where possible.

We use this non-identifiable data to prevent fraud, load content faster, and ensure FeastWave.site runs smoothly for millions of food lovers worldwide.

In total, these collections are essential for operating FeastWave.site but are always processed with your privacy in mind. We do not sell your personal information, a commitment that sets us apart in the food tech industry.
