Terms of Service

1. Intellectual Property & Content Use

Unless otherwise stated, the original text, recipes, photographs, graphics and other content published on Our British Kitchen are owned by or licensed to Our British Kitchen and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

• Feel free to: Read, print or save reasonable amounts for personal, non-commercial use, and share links to site pages.
• Please don't: Republish entire articles or recipes as your own, copy large amounts of site content for commercial use, remove attribution or ownership notices, or reproduce protected images/content without permission where permission is required.

2. Recipes and Kitchen Tools

Our British Kitchen publishes recipes and unit calculators to help bakers swap between measurements and try new bakes.

• Use as a helpful guide: Cooking outcomes can vary because of ingredients, equipment, oven differences, technique, and environmental conditions.
• Conversions are estimates: Ingredient conversions, such as cups to grams, depend on how dense an ingredient is and how it is measured, so the results are approximate. Where accuracy matters, weigh ingredients with kitchen scales and check the result against your recipe.
• No guarantees: We do our absolute best to keep every recipe and tool accurate, but we can't take responsibility if a cake turns out a bit flat or a bake doesn't work out as expected.

3. Kitchen Safety & Allergies

Baking involves hot ovens, cookware, sharp knives, and raw ingredient preparation.

• Your responsibility: Please make sure you follow safe food preparation practices in your kitchen.
• Allergies: You are responsible for checking ingredient packaging for allergens appropriate to your own needs. We cannot guarantee any recipe is allergen-free.
• Nutrition info: Any nutritional information provided on Our British Kitchen is for general informational purposes and should be treated as an estimate. Actual values can vary depending on ingredients, brands, quantities, and preparation methods. It is not medical advice.
