In short
The app has no server of its own, no user account, no ads and no tracking. We receive no data from the app, and we do not share or sell any data.
Data on your device and in your iCloud
The app stores recipes, photos, meal plans, shopping lists, ratings and family members on your iPhone. If you are signed in to iCloud, the app backs up this data to your private iCloud storage via Apple's CloudKit so it reaches your other devices. Only you have access to it, not us. The provider is Apple; Apple's privacy policy applies (apple.com/legal/privacy).
Shared shopping lists
When you share a shopping list, Apple makes it available via iCloud to the people you invite. They can see the list and the names of the participants. You can stop sharing at any time.
Photo search (Pixabay)
When you use photo search, the app sends the search term (usually the name of the dish) to the Pixabay API (Pixabay GmbH, Berlin, Germany). For technical reasons your IP address is transmitted. Pixabay's privacy policy applies (pixabay.com/service/privacy).
Recipe from link
When you paste a link or share one from Safari, the app loads that web page like a browser. The website receives the usual technical data of a page request, such as your IP address.
Text recognition, voice input and AI
Text recognition for photographed recipes and the AI features (Apple Intelligence) run on the iPhone itself. Voice input runs on the device where supported; older devices use Apple's speech recognition service.
Permissions
The app only asks for camera, microphone, speech recognition and notification access when you use the feature. You can change this at any time in the iPhone Settings.
Feedback and ratings
TestFlight feedback and App Store ratings go through Apple. We only receive what you write yourself, plus technical details such as device type and iOS version.
Deletion
Deleting the app deletes its data on the iPhone. You can remove the iCloud copy under Settings › [your name] › iCloud › Manage Storage.
Your rights
As we receive no personal data from the app, we cannot provide or delete any. You still have your rights under Art. 15 to 21 GDPR and the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. For questions, write to info.kein@spam.goldbek-solutions.de.
