Nice work !

But :

"About us" (http://www.taste.io/about): There is nothing about you...

You ask people for their names, email addresses and/or to link to their facebook accounts but you don't return the courtesy of identifying yourself or your company.

You make some promises and cite some laws about privacy (http://www.taste.io/privacy-policy) but if you don't say who you are, we can't even be sure that those apply to you...
