More Information On The Guest User Account

Unlike most web applications, Nutridiary can be accessed completely anonymously. If you do not want to register you can use our full service as a guest user. This account is functionally the same as a member account, with the sole difference of not being able to post messages on our forums.

The main disadvantages of using our service as a guest user are that anyone who has access to your computer will be able to access your account, and that in certain situations you may lose access to the data you have stored in our database.

This is due to the fact that when you use Nutridiary as a guest user, you are identified by means related only to your Internet browser (a "Cookie"). Therefore, your identification will last only as long as your browser' s Cookie file is maintained.

In case the cookie set by Nutridiary is deleted, you might be able to restore access to your data, if you contact us and provide enough information, but no guaranties are made.
