At Chipotlec, your privacy matters to us—not just because it’s the right thing to say, but because we’re users of the internet too. We get how annoying and invasive it can feel when your data is treated like a product. That’s not how we roll.
This policy is here to give you a straight-up, no-fluff explanation of how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you hang out with us online.
When you visit Chipotlec.com, you might end up sharing a few details with us—like your name, email, or maybe your favorite chili pepper if you drop us a message. Typically, here’s what we collect:
Your name and email (if you sign up for our newsletter or contact us)
Browsing behavior (pages visited, time spent, and clicks)
Technical info like IP address, browser type, and device
Location info, if your settings allow it
We don’t collect sensitive stuff—no passwords, no payment info, no government IDs. And we definitely don’t care how many hot sauces are in your pantry (though we’d love to know).
We use your info to make your experience smoother, spicier, and more personal—without being creepy. Here’s how:
To respond when you reach out to us
To send newsletters and recipe updates (if you say yes)
To learn what content people actually like so we can make more of it
To improve our site’s performance and design
To keep things secure and functioning properly
Basically, your data helps us make better flavor-filled content—and make sure Chipotlec runs the way it should.
Yes, we use cookies—not the gooey chocolate chip kind, unfortunately, but small files that help us remember things like what pages you visited or if you’ve already seen a pop-up.
You can choose to block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Totally your call.
Like most websites, we team up with a few trusted services to help us run things behind the scenes. These may include:
Google Analytics (to understand how people use our site)
Email services like Mailchimp (for our newsletter)
Hosting and security providers
These partners only get the info they need to do their job—and we make sure they treat your data with respect.
Let’s be real—nobody likes having their email sold to a spammy list. We will never sell your personal information to third parties. Ever.
If we ever need to share data (say, with a service provider helping us keep the site secure), it’s done with care and only for legit operational reasons.
You’ve got rights, and we respect them. Here’s what you can do:
Unsubscribe: Don’t want emails? Hit that unsubscribe link at the bottom of any message. Boom, done.
Request info: Want to know what data we have on you? Just ask.
Correct it: Noticed a typo in your name? We’ll fix it.
Delete it: Want us to erase your data? We’re on it (unless we’re legally required to keep it).
To make any of these requests, shoot us a message at privacy@chipotlec.com.
Chipotlec.com may link out to other food blogs, tools, or spice shops—but once you click away, we can’t control what happens. Be sure to check their privacy policies too, especially if you’re sharing personal info.
We do our best to protect your data. While no site is 100% unhackable, we use standard safety practices like SSL encryption, regular software updates, and secure servers to guard your info.
But here’s a friendly reminder: always be careful when sharing info online. Strong passwords and not using public Wi-Fi for sensitive actions? Still good advice.
Things change—like the flavor of hot sauce depending on the batch. We may update this policy every so often to reflect changes in the law or how we operate.
When we do, we’ll post the updated version right here with a fresh “Last updated” date at the top. If it’s a major change, we’ll give you a heads-up.
If you’ve got a question about your privacy—or just want to tell us about your new favorite spice—reach out anytime:
We’re not lawyers. We’re flavor lovers. But we promise to treat your data with the care and respect it deserves—because that’s what we’d want too.
