Your Guarantee of Privacy


We don't swap, rent or sell your email address. And we don't send you email blasts you haven't asked for.

Here's the Fat Cat Skinny on other privacy details:

Your Email Address

We only collect and hold your email address in order to send you the newsletters, weblog updates and special cooking reports you've requested. You can unsubscribe at any time for any reason.

If you ever have a problem with email you receive from us, contact fatcatchef|at|hotmail.com.

Your Friend's Email Address

Throughout the Fat Cat Chef site you have the chance to send a friend a note telling them about the site. Make sure you take advantage of this opportunity because your friend is also covered by the Fat Cat Chef Privacy policy.

We will only use your friend's email address in order to send the message you asked us to send. Then they will never hear from us again... unless they voluntarily subscribe to our services.

When Dumb People Use the "Email a Friend" Feature

As you know, there are some dumb people in this world who may abuse our "email a friend" feature to send email to a person who is NOT a friend and who doesn't want to get email from us.

Unfortunately this is a built-in danger when you offer people the convenience of forwarding an article to a friend. If someone using our system sends you something you don't want, we apologize profusely.


Special Cooking Reports

In addition to our regular newsletter and weblog updates, we may occasionally send you Special Cooking Reports that you may find valuable. These are cooking how-to's that will save you time and money.

Special Offer Blasts
We also won't send you a blast promotion for one of our own products, unless:

  • You specifically and pro-actively signed up for our Special Cooking Reports.

  • You purchased a specific product from us in the past and now a new edition of that exact product has come out. In that case we'll let you know there's a new edition and offer you a special previous-buyers-only discount.

  • You specifically signed up to be notified via email when a new product is available.

  • Unsubscribing

    Sites and e-newsletters that are hard to unsubscribe to really suck. So we've made it pretty damn easy to get off the Fat Cat Chef lists.

    You can just reply to a newsletter issue with only the word "unsubscribe" in the subject line. This will unsubscribe you from that particular newsletter. Or you can follow the instructions at the end of the email.

    Your Snail Mail Address

    If for some mad reason we decide to support our beloved footsoldiers -- the United States Post Service -- and actually send you something in the mail, be aware that we do not make our snail mail list available on the rental market.

    However, if we find something valuable that a cooking partner wants to send you, we may give them your address. Don't worry, the price of sending direct postal mail is high enough that spammers aren't tempted to go that route.

    We do not allow anyone to see your telephone number or email address, nor would we ever allow our postal file to be appended with emails.

    If you want your snail mail address off this list, contact privacy|at|fatcatchef.com.
