Privacy Policy – RecipeBox
Effective Date: April 1, 2026
Last Updated: April 1, 2026
RecipeBox ("we", "us", or "our") is a mobile application developed as a private personal recipe saver. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the app.
1. Information We Collect
RecipeBox is a completely offline application. We do not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data with third parties.
The only information the app processes is:
Recipes you manually create (title, ingredients, instructions, times, photo)
All data is stored locally on your device using secure local storage (AsyncStorage)
We do not collect:
Name, email address, phone number, or any personal identifiers
Location data
Device identifiers
Any analytics, tracking, or advertising data
2. Permissions
The app may request the following permissions (only when you actively use the related feature):
Camera / Photos – to let you take or select photos for your recipes (you trigger this manually)
We do not access or use these permissions for any other purpose.
3. Data Storage & Security
All recipes and photos are stored only on your device.
No data leaves your phone — there are no servers, no cloud sync, no backups to our systems.
If you uninstall the app, all data is permanently deleted from your device.
4. Third-Party Services
The app uses the following third-party libraries (all processed locally on device):
Expo (app framework)
React Native Reanimated (for smooth animations – runs locally)
Expo Image Picker (for recipe photos – runs locally)
None of these libraries collect or transmit personal data in this implementation.
5. Children's Privacy
RecipeBox is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you are a parent and believe your child has provided information, please contact us.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted in the app and/or on the Play Store listing. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance.
