1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using CeylonSpicer (“we”, “our”, or “the blog”), you agree to abide by these simple and fair Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please feel free to discontinue using the website.

2. Personal & Non-Commercial Use

All recipes, culinary guides, measurement tables, and instructions are published for personal, educational, and domestic home cooking purposes. You are welcome to cook these meals for family gatherings, potlucks, and dinner parties. You may not scrape, bulk-reproduce, or republish entire recipe collections for commercial re-sale without prior written consent.

3. Intellectual Property & Attribution

The written culinary stories, layout design, branding, and editorial photography on CeylonSpicer are protected by copyright. If you are inspired by one of our recipes and wish to feature it on your own blog or social media:

  • Re-write the instructions in your own words rather than copying verbatim.
  • Credit CeylonSpicer clearly with an active link back to the original recipe URL.
  • Do not scrape or re-host our original food images without explicit permission.

4. Cooking, Allergies & Health Disclaimer

Sri Lankan cuisine makes rich and diverse use of ingredients including fresh coconut, Maldive fish, seafood, crustaceans, tree nuts (such as cashews), and intense chili varieties. Cooking times and temperatures are recommendations and can vary depending on your stove, cookware, and climate.

Cooks are responsible for confirming allergen safety for themselves and their guests, practicing safe food handling (especially with seafood, meats, and raw marinades), and adjusting spice levels to their personal tolerance.

5. External Links & Third-Party Content

Our articles may occasionally reference external sources, historical culinary archives, or spice suppliers. We do not control and are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or privacy policies of third-party websites.

6. Modifications & Contact

We reserve the right to refine these terms as our platform evolves. Any updates will be clearly posted on this page with an updated timestamp.
