10. Third-Party Websites

BeamRecipes may contain links to websites, advertisements, products, services, or platforms operated by third parties.

These external services operate independently from BeamRecipes.

We are not responsible for their content, security, availability, privacy practices, or handling of personal information.

We encourage visitors to review third-party privacy policies before providing personal information.

The need to resolve disputes or protect legal rights

When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymized, or otherwise handled according to applicable requirements.

12. Data Security

BeamRecipes uses reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, alteration, disclosure, or misuse.

However, no website, electronic storage system, or internet transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. Children’s Privacy

BeamRecipes is a general-audience cooking and recipe website and is not directed to children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 in circumstances where parental consent would be required.
