dishesbymum (accessible at https://dishesbymum.com) is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of its users, customers, and visitors. This GDPR Compliance Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and safeguard personal data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR). By using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms set out below.
We process only the data that is necessary for the provision of our services and the improvement of user experience. The categories of personal data we collect include:
We do not collect sensitive personal data (e.g., health information, political opinions) nor do we process data about minors without verifiable parental consent.
Under GDPR, every processing activity must have a lawful basis. dishesbymum relies on the following grounds:
If we ever need to rely on a different legal basis (e.g., contractual necessity), we will inform you at the point of collection.
The security of your personal data is a top priority. We have implemented technical and organisational measures that include:
While we strive to protect your data, no transmission over the internet can be guaranteed as 100 % secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords and to keep your devices up‑to‑date.
You enjoy a set of rights under GDPR. Each right is described below, together with a Bootstrap 5 icon for quick visual reference.
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This includes the source of the data, the purposes for processing, and any recipients to whom the data has been disclosed.
If any of your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it corrected without undue delay.
You may ask us to delete your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing, such as when you withdraw consent or when the data is no longer needed for the original purpose.
In certain circumstances (e.g., while we verify the accuracy of your data), you can request that we limit the way we process your information.
When processing is based on consent or a contract, you may receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine‑readable format and transmit it to another controller.
You can object to the processing of your data for direct marketing, scientific research, or legitimate‑interest purposes. Upon objection, we will halt processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.
Where processing is based on your consent (e.g., newsletter subscriptions), you may withdraw that consent at any time, free of charge. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
To exercise any of the rights listed above, please contact our Data Protection Officer (DPO) using the details below. Your request must be in writing (email is acceptable) and should contain enough information for us to verify your identity.
We will acknowledge receipt of your request within 5 business days and will provide a substantive response within the statutory period of 30 calendar days. In complex cases, we may extend the deadline by an additional 2 months, but we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it before the original deadline expires.
The length of time we retain personal data depends on the purpose for which it was collected:
When the retention period expires, the data is securely destroyed or anonymised in a manner that prevents re‑identification.
All personal data processed by dishesbymum is stored on servers located within the European Economic Area (EEA). If a transfer outside the EEA becomes necessary (e.g., for third‑party analytics), we will ensure that appropriate safeguards—such as Standard Contractual Clauses—are in place to protect your data in compliance with GDPR.
We review this GDPR Compliance Policy regularly. Any material changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the site after such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
For any questions, concerns, or complaints regarding this policy or our data‑processing practices, please reach out to our Data Protection Officer:
