Meaty Times is a free, open-source hobby project maintained by Mark Heydon. This page describes how the project handles information when you use the documentation site and the web application.

Summary

• No user accounts are required to use Meaty Times.
• No personal data is stored by the calculator for your roast inputs or results.
• No tracking cookies are used on this documentation site.
• No analytics are collected unless explicitly added in a future release (this page will be updated if that changes).

Documentation site

This website is a static site generated with Jekyll and hosted on GitHub Pages. When you visit:

• Pages are served as ordinary HTML and assets.
• This site does not set tracking cookies or run third-party analytics scripts.
• GitHub Pages and your browser may handle standard web delivery (for example HTTPS certificates and basic access logs on GitHub’s infrastructure). Meaty Times does not receive or process those logs directly.

Meaty Times web application

The roast calculator is separate software that may be hosted on a different domain or server. In the current design:

• You are not asked to create an account or provide personal details to calculate a roast.
• Roast inputs (meat type, weight, doneness, serving time) are used to produce a result and are not persisted as user profiles or history by the application logic.
• Depending on where the app is hosted, the hosting provider may record routine server logs (such as IP address, request time, and user agent). Those logs are governed by the host’s policies, not by this documentation site.

Cookies

This documentation site does not use cookies for tracking or advertising.

If the web application uses cookies in a future release (for example for essential session functionality), that behaviour will be described here when it is introduced.

Third-party links

This site may link to GitHub and other external services. Those sites have their own privacy policies.

Children’s privacy

Meaty Times is a general cooking tool and is not directed at children. No personal information is knowingly collected from anyone.

Changes to this statement

This page may be updated as the project evolves. Material changes (for example adding analytics) will be reflected here with an updated date.
