Last updated: May 16, 2026
Introduction
Chef Recipe Manager ("the App") is operated by an independent developer. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App collects, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.
By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
The App allows you to create and store recipes, meal plans, and shopping lists. All data you enter — including recipe names, ingredients, photos, and notes — is stored locally on your device only. We do not collect or transmit this information to any external server.
Photos and Camera
The App may request access to your camera or photo library to let you attach photos to recipes. Photos are saved only on your device within the App's private storage directory. They are not uploaded or shared without your explicit action.
Device Storage
The App reads and writes to your device storage solely to save your recipes and to create or restore backup files when you choose to use the backup feature.
Information We Do Not Collect
We do not collect your name, email address, or any personal identification information.
We do not require you to create an account.
We do not track your location.
We do not collect usage analytics or crash reports from your device.
We do not sell or share your data with third parties.
Advertising
The App displays advertisements provided by Google AdMob. Google AdMob may collect certain non-personal device information to serve relevant ads, such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, and general location. This data is collected and processed by Google under their own privacy policy.
You can review Google's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy
To opt out of personalized advertising, you can adjust your device settings under Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization.
Backup and Restore
The App includes an optional backup feature that creates a ZIP file containing your recipes, meal plans, shopping data, and photos. This file is saved to your device and shared using your device's standard sharing options (such as email or cloud storage). The App does not automatically upload backup files to any server. You are responsible for where you choose to send or store the backup file.
Data Storage and Security
All App data is stored locally on your device using a local database. No data is transmitted to external servers by the App. The security of your data depends on the security of your device.
Children's Privacy
This App is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so we can address the situation.
