Effective Date: May 10, 2025
Owner: Jenn Giam Smith; Jenn Smith, LLC
Trademark: Jenn Giam Smith™

Thank you for your interest in the content shared on jenn-smith.com. I appreciate your support and your desire to share the work I’ve created. Please read the following terms carefully regarding how my photos and recipes may—and may not—be used.

All content, including but not limited to photographs, recipes, and written materials, are the sole property of Jenn Giam Smith and Jenn Smith, LLC, unless otherwise noted.

All rights are reserved. Unauthorized use is strictly prohibited.

PHOTO USE

Using my photo to promote my recipe or my blog in general: You are welcome to share one photo as long as you prominently link back to the original post. Please do not share more than one image from a post without my explicit permission (email me). Note that you may not republish the recipe itself. Thank you for promoting my work!

Using my photo to promote something else: You must request permission beforehand. I do not allow my photos to be used as clip art/stock images unless we’ve negotiated compensation and licensing details.

RECIPE USE

You may not republish my recipe(s). I don’t allow other websites or publications to publish my recipes. I simply receive far too many requests, and cookieandkate.com is the exclusive source for my recipes. Again, my recipes are copyrighted material and may not be published elsewhere.

What You May Not Do:

  • You may NOT sell, trade, republish, or redistribute any recipe or photo from this website in any form.
  • You may NOT copy, reproduce, or modify any of my photographs or recipes for use on your website, blog, publication, or social media without explicit prior written consent.
  • You may NOT use my content to create derivative works, including recipe remixes or variations, for commercial or non-commercial purposes without permission.

What You May Do With Permission:

If you are a blogger, website owner, or media outlet wishing to link back to a recipe on jenn-smith.com:

  • You may use ONE photo only from the post you are linking to.
  • You must clearly credit Jenn Giam Smith and jenn-smith.com as the original source.
  • The link must direct back to the original post on this site where the recipe and full instructions are published.
  • You must include a statement such as: “Recipe and photo by Jenn Giam Smith of jenn-smith.com,” with an active link to the original recipe.

Requests & Inquiries

If you are interested in using a recipe, photo, or content in a manner not listed above, please contact me directly to request permission. I’m happy to discuss licensing and appropriate uses on a case-by-case basis.

Thank you for respecting my work and for helping to protect creative content on the web.—
