Privacy Policy
Recipe Finder ยท Last updated: November 2, 2026
Overview
Recipe Finder suggests recipes from photos of your fridge and pantry. It has no accounts and no ads, and it doesn't sell your data. This policy explains what the app sends, what is kept, and why.
Photos and Camera
When you scan, the photo is sent to our server and to an AI provider to identify ingredients. Your photos are used only for that request; we don't store them after the ingredients are returned.
Ingredients, Preferences and Recipes
- The ingredients you confirm and your preferences (for example vegetarian, time, servings) are sent to generate recipes.
- Recipes you save or cook, and your preferences, are stored only on your device.
Dish Photos
Pro recipes can show an AI-generated photo of the dish. These images are created from the recipe's title and ingredients only, contain no personal information, and are stored and shared between users so the same dish doesn't have to be generated twice.
Usage Limits and App Verification
To enforce free and Pro limits, our server keeps simple usage counts (such as scans used this week) linked to an anonymous identifier derived from your App Store purchase record. We don't receive your name, email or Apple ID. We use Apple App Attest through Firebase App Check to confirm requests come from the genuine app.
Purchases
Recipe Finder Pro is sold by Apple through the App Store. We don't receive or store your payment details. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple account settings.
Services Used
The app uses Apple services (App Store, StoreKit, App Attest), Google Firebase (app verification, database, storage and server functions) and OpenAI (ingredient recognition, recipe writing and dish images). These providers process data only to deliver those features.
AI Content Disclaimer
Recipes, ingredient detection and dish photos are generated by AI and can be wrong. Always check ingredients against your allergies and dietary needs, and follow safe food handling.
Children
Recipe Finder is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.
