RecipeApp

Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 28, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how RecipeApp ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the RecipeApp mobile application (the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

• Account information. When you create an account, we collect your email address and a securely stored password.
• Photos you provide. Photos of dishes or ingredients that you capture with your camera or select from your photo library, used to recognize ingredients and generate recipes.
• Video links and content. When you share a cooking video (for example, an Instagram Reel, YouTube Short, or TikTok) with the App, we process the linked video and its audio to extract the recipe for you.
• Recipe and preference data. Recipes you save, dietary preferences, ingredients, and other settings you enter to personalize your experience.
• Purchase information. Subscription and in-app purchase status, processed by Apple and our payments partner (RevenueCat). We do not receive or store your full payment card details.
• Usage and device data. Basic technical and usage data used to operate, secure, and improve the App.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To generate, personalize, and save recipes for you.
• To analyze photos and shared videos in order to identify ingredients and extract recipes.
• To calculate nutrition information and ingredient breakdowns.
• To provide, maintain, and improve the App's features.
• To process subscriptions and in-app purchases.
• To send optional reminders (such as meal-time notifications) if you enable them.
• To provide customer support and respond to your requests.
• To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or technical issues.

3. AI Processing

RecipeApp uses third-party artificial-intelligence services to analyze the photos and videos you provide and to generate recipes, nutrition estimates, and related content. To do this, the content you submit — such as photos of food and ingredients and the cooking videos you share — is transmitted to:

• Google (Gemini AI) — image and video analysis and recipe generation.

This content is sent solely to produce the results you request. We access these AI services through paid API plans; under Google's paid Gemini API terms, the content you submit is not used to train Google's models, and we do not authorize any provider to use your content for any purpose other than generating your requested results. AI-generated recipes and nutrition values are estimates and may be inaccurate; they are provided for informational purposes only and are not medical or dietary advice.

4. Third-Party Services

We share information only as needed with service providers that help us operate the App, including:

• Google Cloud & Neon — application hosting and database storage.
• RevenueCat & Apple — subscription and purchase processing.
• Google (Gemini AI) — image and video analysis and recipe generation (see Section 3).

These providers process data on our behalf under their own privacy and security terms. We do not sell your personal information.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

We retain your information for as long as your account is active. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time from Settings → Delete Account within the App. Deletion removes your profile, saved recipes, preferences, uploaded content, and account record.

6. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

The App is not intended for children under 13 (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You can exercise many of these rights directly in the App, or by contacting us at the address below.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
