Last updated: May 31, 2026

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how FSO Directory ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit our website fso.food1947.com (the "Site") or interact with our services.

  • Usage Data: We automatically collect certain information about your device and how you interact with the Site, such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent, and referring URLs. This helps us improve the website experience.
  • Cookies: We use essential cookies to remember your preferences (e.g., closing the ad blocker notice) and analyze traffic. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not work properly.

4. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, loss, or alteration. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
