What is collected
The web server keeps ordinary request logs (address, time, page, browser) for a short time to keep the site running. Pages also load Google Analytics, which counts visits and which pages are read, using cookies set by Google. You can block it with any content blocker or with Google’s opt-out add-on, and the site works the same without it.
Search and filters
What you type in the search box and the checks you pick stay in your browser and in the page address, so the back button returns you to the same list. Nothing about them is stored on the server beyond the page address in the logs.
The contact form
A message sent through the contact form goes to the people who run the site, with your name and email so they can answer. It is not added to a mailing list, sold or shared.
No advertising, no affiliate links
The site carries no ads and no shopping links, and earns nothing from any food or store it mentions. Links to food makers and to USDA’s database are there as sources for the ingredient lists.
Children
The site is not aimed at children and does not knowingly collect anything from them.
