Last Updated: June 13, 2026
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by Cookiqa. I’m Saly Rose, and I run this personal food blog at cookiqa.com. I love sharing recipes, kitchen tips, and stories with home cooks and food lovers across the United States. Before you dive into the recipes or sign up for my newsletter, please take a moment to read this disclaimer. It’s here to help you understand what you can expect from Cookiqa and how you should use the information you find here.
Just for Inspiration and Entertainment
Everything you see on Cookiqa is meant for inspiration and entertainment. I’m not a professional chef, nutritionist, or medical expert. The recipes, cooking tips, and stories I share are based on my own experiences and research, but they’re not official advice. If you have special dietary needs, allergies, or health concerns, please check with a qualified professional before trying any recipe or tip you find here.
Cooking Safety and Common Sense
Cooking is fun, but it can also be risky. Please use your best judgment and follow food safety guidelines every time you cook. Always double-check ingredients, especially if you or someone you’re cooking for has allergies or dietary restrictions. Make sure your kitchen equipment is in good shape and follow instructions carefully. If you’re unsure about a technique or ingredient, do a little extra research or ask an expert.
No Guarantees on Results
I do my best to make sure every recipe is clear and accurate, but cooking results can vary. Your ingredients, equipment, and skill level all play a part. Sometimes things don’t turn out exactly as pictured or described—and that’s okay! Cooking is a creative process, and it’s normal for results to differ. If you ever spot an error or have trouble with a recipe, let me know. I’m always happy to help and update things if needed.
Personal Responsibility
By using Cookiqa, you agree to take full responsibility for your own cooking and kitchen safety. I’m not responsible for any injuries, accidents, allergic reactions, or damages that might happen from following my recipes, tips, or advice. Please use caution, especially when handling sharp tools, hot surfaces, or unfamiliar ingredients.
Newsletter and Email Communication
If you sign up for my newsletter, you’ll get recipes and updates by email. I do my best to keep your email address safe and private. For more details, check out my Privacy Policy. The newsletter is just for sharing recipes and kitchen inspiration—it’s not professional advice or a substitute for expert guidance.
No Affiliate Links or Sponsored Content
Cookiqa does not use affiliate links or sponsored content. I don’t earn commissions or receive compensation for recommending products, tools, or ingredients. If I ever mention a brand or product, it’s just because I like it or find it useful. You’re always free to choose what works best for you.
External Links and Resources
Sometimes I link to other food blogs, websites, or helpful resources. I can’t control their content, policies, or practices. If you visit another site, please check their terms and privacy policies. I’m not responsible for anything that happens on other websites.
Comment Section and Community
I love hearing from you! When you leave a comment, please be respectful and kind. Your name and comment may be visible to others, but your email stays private. I reserve the right to remove comments that are offensive, spammy, or don’t fit the spirit of Cookiqa. Please remember that comments are public and reflect your own opinions.
Site Availability and Technical Issues
I do my best to keep Cookiqa running smoothly, but sometimes things break or need updating. The site is provided “as is.” I can’t guarantee that it will always be available, error-free, or secure. If you experience technical issues, please let me know and I’ll do my best to fix them.

I don’t sell your info, and I never will. For full details, check out my Privacy Policy. To use your rights, just email me at [email protected] or visit my contact page. I’ll respond within 45 days.
Children’s Use
Cookiqa is meant for grown-ups and teens who love cooking. If you’re under 13, please don’t share personal info or sign up for the newsletter. If you think your child has shared info here, contact me and I’ll remove it.
Limitation of Liability
To sum it up: Cookiqa is here to inspire and entertain, not to provide professional advice. I’m not liable for any injuries, losses, or damages that might happen from using the site, recipes, or tips. Please use your best judgment and stay safe in the kitchen.
