Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Paxaso collects through this website, how it is used, and the choices available regarding that information.
This Privacy Policy applies to the website located at paxaso.pro, operated in connection with a live, Saturday-morning cooking workshop focused on culinary education. It describes the categories of information collected when visitors browse the site, submit the contact form, or interact with cookie preference tools, and it explains how that information is handled.
This policy is written to be consistent with applicable United States privacy law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), and general Federal Trade Commission guidance on online privacy disclosures. Use of the site indicates acknowledgment of the practices described here.
Information collected through this site falls into a few categories. First, information voluntarily submitted through the contact form, which may include a name (optional), an email address, and the content of a written message. Second, technical information collected automatically, such as browser type, approximate location derived from IP address, device type, and pages visited, gathered through standard server logs and cookies as described in the Cookie Policy. Third, preference information, such as the cookie consent choices made through the on-site banner.
This site does not knowingly collect payment information, government identification numbers, or health information through any form on the site.
Information submitted through the contact form is used solely to respond to the inquiry made, including questions about workshop scheduling, curriculum content, or general availability. Technical and analytics information, where collected pursuant to cookie consent, is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the site, identify pages that may need improvement, and maintain basic site security.
No information collected through this site is used to generate personalized health, medical, or dietary recommendations. The workshop itself provides general culinary education only.
This site uses cookies and similar technologies for necessary site functions, and, where consented to, for analytics and functional purposes. A cookie consent banner is presented on first visit, allowing acceptance, rejection of non-essential categories, or customization by category. Full detail on cookie categories, purposes, and retention is provided in the separate Cookie Policy, which forms part of this overall privacy framework.
This site relies on a small number of third-party services to function, including font delivery services (Google Fonts), icon libraries (Font Awesome), a slider/carousel library (Swiper), and an embedded map service (Google Maps) on the contact page. These providers may process limited technical data, such as IP address, in the course of delivering their service. Where the contact form is used, an email is generated through the visitor's own email client and is not transmitted through or stored by this website's servers.
These third parties are not authorized to use any information transmitted through this site for their own independent marketing purposes.
Contact form submissions, once received via email, are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the inquiry and for basic recordkeeping, after which they may be deleted. Cookie consent preferences are stored locally in the browser via a cookie for a limited period, typically up to 180 days, after which the consent banner will be presented again.
Residents of California and certain other states may have rights under applicable law, including the CCPA/CPRA, to request access to, deletion of, or correction of personal information held about them, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (this site does not sell personal information). Requests can be made by emailing [email protected] with a description of the request. Reasonable steps will be taken to verify identity before processing a request involving personal information.
This site will not discriminate against any visitor for exercising these rights.
This site and the associated workshop are directed at adults and are not intended for children under 13, consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). This site does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If it becomes apparent that information from a child under 13 has been submitted, it will be deleted promptly upon discovery.
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information handled in connection with this site, appropriate to the limited and low-sensitivity nature of the data collected. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in practices or applicable law. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acknowledgment of the revised policy.
Questions about this policy or requests relating to personal information can be directed to Paxaso at 1001 Baltimore Pike, Philadelphia, PA, by phone at +1 610-328-7877, or by email at [email protected].
