Terms

Updated April 2026

Hessentials publishes essays, recipes, and recommendations. By using the site, you agree to a handful of plain things below.

What you can do

Read. Share. Save for yourself. Quote with credit and a link back. Print a recipe for your own kitchen.

What you can't do

Republish our writing or photography elsewhere without permission. Scrape the site for AI training. Pass off our work as your own.

Affiliate links

Shop pages and some essays contain affiliate links. Clicking one and buying something may earn us a small commission at no cost to you. The details are in the Affiliate Disclosure.

Outside links

We link to retailers, brands, and other publications when it's useful. We can't vouch for what happens after you click — pricing, availability, and editorial decisions there are theirs alone.

No promises

The site is provided as-is. Recipes and recommendations reflect what has worked for us; what works for your kitchen, body, or home is your call. Read labels. Trust your senses. When in doubt, don't.

Privacy

How we handle your information lives on its own page: Privacy.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by writing to us first will be handled in the state or federal courts of Harris County, Texas.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes get noted at the top of the page for thirty days, and the date in the header is revised.
