ChainMenu site information

Privacy Policy

Clear terms for using this independent nutrition reference.

Information ChainMenu does not collect directly

ChainMenu is a public nutrition reference site. It does not require an account, profile, subscription, checkout, or nutrition diary, and it does not ask visitors to submit names, postal addresses, telephone numbers, payment details, health records, or other personally identifying information through the website. The meal calculator runs with static data in the visitor's browser and does not send selected ingredients to ChainMenu. If a visitor voluntarily sends an email, the sender's address and the contents of that message are received only because the visitor chose to provide them.

Google Analytics

ChainMenu loads Google Analytics 4 on every HTML page to measure site use. When a page loads, the tag sends information such as the page URL and title, referring page, browser and device characteristics, language and screen information, and approximate geographic information. Google may process an IP address to derive location data, but ChainMenu does not receive a visitor's IP address in Analytics reports. Google Analytics uses first-party cookies such as _ga to distinguish users and _ga_<container-id> to preserve session state. ChainMenu uses aggregate reports to evaluate whether pages work and which nutrition topics are useful; it does not use Analytics to create a ChainMenu account or request a visitor's real name.

Google explains how information from sites using its services is handled in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Visitors can use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, subject to Google's availability and instructions, or block or delete cookies through browser or device settings. Blocking Analytics or its cookies may reduce the accuracy of aggregate measurement but does not prevent access to ChainMenu's static nutrition pages.

Advertising

ChainMenu does not currently display advertising and does not use Google AdSense. No advertising script or publisher ID is installed on the site. If ChainMenu adds advertising in the future, this policy will be updated to identify the provider and explain the related data practices, cookies, and visitor choices.

Children's privacy

ChainMenu is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The site is a general-audience nutrition lookup resource, not a children's service. If a parent or guardian believes a child under 13 has sent personal information to ChainMenu, they may contact the site so the message can be reviewed and, where appropriate, deleted in accordance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act and other applicable requirements.

Changes, contact, and effective date

This policy may change when the site's analytics, advertising, legal obligations, or operating practices change. The current version will remain published at this URL with its effective date. Privacy questions or requests can be sent to [email protected]. Email delivery and response time are not guaranteed.

Effective date: August 27, 2026.
