In all cases, we may share aggregated or anonymized data that does not identify you personally. Third-Party Data Collection and Online Advertising Practices We and our third-party partners may use data about you (such as what you provide to us or your interactions with our services, or that we receive from third parties) to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. These third-party partners may include online advertising platforms, analytics companies, social media companies, or other advertising technology services.

How We Gather This Data We gather data through tracking technologies such as cookies, web beacons/pixels, SDKs, APIs, embedded scripts, location-detection technologies, logging techniques, and similar tools. These technologies recognize the device you are using and gather data, including clickstream data, browser type, time and date of visit, mobile ad ID or other digital identifiers (e.g., iOS IDFA, Google AAID, cookie ID, click ID, proprietary IDs like open-source “universal IDs”), geolocation, and other data such as advertising/marketing measurement data as discussed further in this Privacy Policy. These tools may also collect other information you provide to us or data about how you interact with our Services, such as mouse movements, scrolling, clicks, and keystroke activity. This data includes your browsing, search, or purchasing behaviors. These tools may also capture data you enter when interacting with our Services or when engaging in chat or other features. We may share a common record identifier, such as a hashed or encrypted email address or user ID, or other data (such as a phone number, which is also typically shared in hashed or encrypted form) with third-party marketing partners to help identify you across devices. We may share this information through tools like APIs, direct file uploads, server-to-server transfers, or by integrating our partners’ tracking technologies (e.g., pixel). What Controls Do I Have Over My Data? You may control your data in the following ways:
  • Access to, Correction, or Deletion of Your Data: You have the right to request access to your personal data, correct any incorrect/incomplete personal data, or request the deletion of your personal data. To help protect your privacy, we will attempt to verify your identity as part of processing any request. In certain situations, we may not fulfill your request, such as if we reasonably determine that your identity cannot be verified or if the data is subject to legal, regulatory, internal audit, record-keeping, or other legal exceptions. However, we will respond to your request within a reasonable time. To make such a request, please contact us via email at info@tastyread.com, indicating the type of request (e.g., Access, Correction, or Deletion).
  • Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: You may manage cookies through your browser settings. For example: (i) you can be notified when a cookie is being set, allowing you to choose whether to accept it; (ii) disable existing cookies; or (iii) reject cookies automatically (or certain types, such as third-party cookies). Similar controls may exist for other tracking technologies like pixels, SDKs, and local storage. Please review your device or browser settings and related documentation for further information.
Note that limiting the use of these technologies may negatively impact your experience using our Services, as certain features or offerings may be less personalized or may not work as expected. Depending on your device and operating system, you may not be able to delete or block all cookies or tracking technologies as described in this Privacy Policy. Additionally, if you wish to block cookies across all browsers and devices, you must do so on every browser and device you use. You may also configure your email client to prevent the automatic downloading of images that may contain technologies to track whether you’ve opened our email and taken specific actions (e.g., URL clickthroughs).
