Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 31, 2026
This policy covers the iOS app Recipeas and the Recipeas website at recipeasapp.com.
Short Version
No accounts. No ads. No third-party tracking. We don't sell your data. The app makes anonymous requests to our recipe servers to fetch and rank recipes. If you choose to send a bug report, the report includes device model, OS version, and app version so we can fix it.
What Recipeas Does
Recipeas helps you find recipes you can actually cook from a library of over a million sourced from public recipe sites. You enter or confirm ingredients you have, the engine ranks recipes by what you can make, and you tap to view details.
Data We Collect
From your device, on purpose: nothing. The app does not require an account, contacts, location, camera, microphone, photos, or any personal identifiers.
From your device, anonymously, to make the app work:
- Recipe queries (the list of ingredients you tap or type) are sent
to our backend at
data.recipeasapp.comso the engine can return ranked recipes. Queries are not tied to a user identity and are not stored after the request is served, beyond standard short-term request logs used for debugging and rate limiting. - Recipe data (titles, ingredients, images) is fetched from the same backend and cached on your device.
- Cloudflare, our CDN provider, may log standard request metadata (IP address, user agent, timestamp) for security and performance. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
If you choose to send a bug report: the report includes the device model name (e.g. "iPhone 16 Pro"), iOS version, and the app version + build number, along with the report text and a recent log snippet. It's used to fix bugs and is not linked to a user account or advertising identifier.
Translation
Non-English recipe titles and ingredient lines are translated server-side via Cloudflare Workers AI before they reach your device. Your input is never sent to a third-party AI; only the recipe content from public sites is processed.
Children's Privacy
Recipeas is a recipe-discovery utility and is not directed at children under 13. Because it collects no personal information and has no accounts, it complies with COPPA.
Third-Party SDKs
Recipeas does not embed any third-party analytics, advertising, attribution, social, or crash-reporting SDKs.
TestFlight Beta
If you join the beta via TestFlight, Apple may collect crash logs and usage statistics as described in Apple's Privacy Policy. That collection is performed by Apple, not by us, and we receive only anonymized aggregate beta-testing data from Apple.
Website
recipeasapp.com is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. We do not run analytics or cookies on this site.
Changes
If this policy ever changes, the "Last updated" date above will change. Material changes will be noted at the top of the page.
