Privacy policy

Last updated October 23, 2026

What we collect

If you create a free account, we store your email address, the first name you give us (optional), your password in scrambled (hashed) form, and the things you save: favorite recipes, meal plan, family size and shopping list. Without an account, these are saved only in your own browser.

Dish requests

When you request a dish, we store the dish name, any notes, and your email address only if you give it. The dish name may appear on our public request list; your notes and email never do. We use your email once, to tell you when the recipe is added, and then delete it.

How we use it

To run your account and keep your saved items in sync across devices. If you choose to receive emails, we'll send new recipes and weekly menus; you can turn this off anytime in your account settings. We never sell your information.

Where it's stored

Account data is stored on our web hosting provider's servers in the United States. Passwords are never stored in readable form.

Payments

Paid memberships ($5.99/month or $59/year) are processed by Stripe. Your card details go directly to Stripe and are never sent to or stored on our servers. We keep only your Stripe customer reference and membership status so we can turn your member features on. Memberships renew monthly until you cancel, which you can do anytime from your account page. See Stripe's privacy policy.

Cookies

We use one cookie to keep you signed in. Links to retailers like Amazon are affiliate links, and those sites may set their own cookies when you visit them.

Your choices

You can update your settings or permanently delete your account and saved data at any time from your account page. If you have a paid membership, please cancel it first using the Manage button there.
