Privacy policy
Last updated 2026-09-18. This policy describes what Tropic Jar (abacaxi.top) collects, why, and what you can do about it.
The short version
This site has no accounts, no comment forms and no newsletter. The only information it holds about a visitor is what any web server records in its access log, plus whatever advertising cookies are set on the pages that carry ads. Nothing is sold, and nothing is used to build a profile of you outside advertising.
What is collected automatically
Our web server records the usual request metadata: the IP address that made the request, the time, the page requested, the referring page and the browser’s user agent string. These logs are kept for 30 days for security and troubleshooting and are then discarded. They are not combined with any other data and are not used to identify individuals.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the site you are visiting or by third parties whose content appears on it. Tropic Jar itself sets no cookies for tracking and requires none to read any page: with JavaScript disabled, every recipe, every number and every stage is still in the page.
Advertising and third-party vendors
This site is supported by advertising, and it is served through Google AdSense. We use third-party advertising companies, including Google, to serve ads when you visit.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or to other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- The ads themselves are served through Google AdSense, which places and reads cookies on this site as part of serving them.
- Google uses the DoubleClick DART cookie for this purpose. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ads Settings page, or opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
You can also review and adjust which vendors you allow at www.youronlinechoices.eu if you are in Europe, or opt out of personalised advertising from members of the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org.
Legal basis and EEA, UK and Swiss visitors
Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies, we rely on your consent for the storage of and access to information on your device for advertising purposes, and on legitimate interests for the security logging described above. A consent message is presented before any advertising cookie is set, and you may change or withdraw that choice at any time through the same message, which remains reachable from the footer of the site.
You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its processing, and to request it in a portable format. Because this site holds no accounts, the data we can act on is in practice limited to server log entries. Requests go to the address at the bottom of this page.
California residents (CCPA and CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you may request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, request that we delete it, and request that we not sell it. Tropic Jar does not sell personal information and has not done so in the preceding twelve months. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. To make a request, write to the address below.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided information to us, write to the address below and it will be removed.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it, and material changes will be described here rather than edited in quietly. We do not notify visitors individually, because we have no way to contact them.
