Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This Privacy Policy explains how 24cocktails ("we", "us", "our"), operator of the website 24cocktails.com (the "Site"), collects, uses, and protects information in connection with the Site and our related social media and marketing activities, including our Pinterest business account.

1. Information we collect

We aim to collect as little personal data as possible. Depending on how you use the Site, we may process:

We do not require account registration to browse cocktail recipes, and we do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data.

2. How we use information

3. Legal bases

Where the GDPR applies, we process data on the basis of our legitimate interests (operating and improving the Site and our marketing), your consent (for non-essential cookies/analytics, where required), and compliance with legal obligations.

4. Cookies and analytics

Every cookie and item of browser storage is listed in the Cookies Policy; your rights under the GDPR and how to use them are on the GDPR page.

We use cookies and analytics tools such as Google Analytics (GA4) to measure aggregate usage of the Site. These tools may set cookies and process usage data as described in their own privacy policies. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect Site functionality.

Your choice. If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a banner asks whether we may use analytics cookies. Until you accept, Google Analytics runs in cookieless "consent mode" and our own visit counter stays off. You can change your answer at any time:

Your answer is kept in your browser's local storage (consent24), as are the Site's preferences — language, theme, units, saved recipes, your bar shelf — which never leave your device. Our own visit statistics are collected first-party on our server: the page viewed, the language, a random browser identifier (sid24) with no name attached, the referring site, and what you do on the page — what you search for, the bottles you tick in the finder, and which recipes you save, rate, mark as made, share or download. Server logs, which include IP addresses, are kept for a limited period for security.

5. Pinterest and third-party platforms

We operate a Pinterest business account and use the Pinterest API to publish and manage our own Pins and boards and to read analytics for our own content. Through this integration we access only data belonging to our own Pinterest account.

We do not collect, store, or process the personal data of other Pinterest users through the API. Our access to and use of information received from the Pinterest API complies with the Pinterest Developer Terms and Developer Guidelines. Information obtained from Pinterest is used solely to operate and improve our own presence on Pinterest and is not sold or transferred to third parties.

The Site may also link to third-party websites and platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties; please review their policies separately.

6. Sharing of information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited data with service providers who help us operate the Site (such as hosting and analytics providers), strictly for that purpose, and where required by law or to protect our legal rights.

7. Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above or as required by applicable law, after which it is deleted or anonymised. Aggregate analytics data may be retained in de-identified form.

8. Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data, and to object to processing or withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below.

9. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults of legal drinking age in their jurisdiction and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.

10. International transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than your own. Where required, we take appropriate safeguards to protect your data in connection with such transfers.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be posted on this page.
