Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 27, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Chef Duo ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile application ("App").

1. Information We Collect

Account Information — When you create an account, we collect your email address via Sign in with Apple or Google OAuth. We do not collect your name, phone number, or payment details directly — payments are handled entirely by Apple.

Information You Provide

Usage Data — We collect limited usage data to enforce free-tier limits (e.g. number of recipe searches and meal plans generated). This data is stored server-side in Supabase so limits persist across devices and reinstalls.

Recipe and Meal Plan Content — Recipes and meal plans you generate are stored locally on your device and are not uploaded to our servers.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

When you generate a recipe or meal plan, your inputs are sent to our backend server and then to Anthropic's API. We do not store these inputs after the response is returned.

4. Data Storage and Security

Account data is stored securely using the iOS Keychain and in Supabase's secure infrastructure. App preferences are stored locally on your device. We use HTTPS for all communications. We retain your account data for as long as your account is active.

5. Children's Privacy

Chef Duo is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email below.

7. Deleting Your Account

You can delete your account and all associated data at any time directly within the App: go to Settings → Delete Account. Deletion is immediate and permanent. Alternatively, you may email support@chefduo.app with the subject line "Delete My Account" and we will process your request within 30 days. Note that deleting your account does not automatically cancel any active App Store subscription — you must cancel that separately through your Apple ID settings.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

9. Terms of Use

Your use of Chef Duo is also subject to our End User License Agreement (EULA), which governs your rights and obligations when using the App.
