Recibe
Privacy Policy
Updated September 26, 2026
The short version
No ads, we never sell your data, and there's no analytics or tracking software in the app. You can delete your account at any time from Profile.
Who we are
Recibe is a recipe, pantry, grocery list and meal-planning app for your household. If you have a question about this policy or your data, email six47webservices@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Your email address.
- Your name and a profile photo, if you choose to add them.
- If you sign in with email and password, your password — it's stored as a salted hash by our authentication provider (Base44) and we never see it in plain text.
- If you sign in with Google or Apple, the email address and account identifier they share with us.
- The content you create in the app: recipes (including photos), recipe books, pantry items, grocery list items, and meal plan entries.
- Photos you scan to create a recipe.
- Your household membership and sharing settings.
- Standard technical request data — like IP address and timestamps — that our hosting provider processes to run and secure the service.
What we don't collect
We don't collect your location, contacts, or microphone audio, and we don't use advertising identifiers or collect health or financial data. We don't use any third-party analytics.
How we use it
We use your data only to run the app's features. We never sell it, and we never use it for advertising.
Who we share it with
- Members of your household — only what you choose to share with them, such as recipe books, pantry, grocery list, and meal plan.
- Our service providers: Base44, which hosts the app and provides our database, authentication, and file storage; and Google or Apple, if you sign in with one of them.
- When you use Scan a recipe, the photos you scan are sent to an AI service through our hosting provider, Base44, only to read the recipe from them — they aren't used for anything else.
- Anyone else, only if required by law.
Your recipe photos
Recipe photos are stored as files at long, hard-to-guess web addresses. Anyone who has that exact address can open the photo, so treat the address itself as something private. Photos you scan are stored the same way as other uploaded photos, at long, hard-to-guess addresses.
On your phone
A copy of your data, along with any changes you make offline, is kept on your phone so the app keeps working without a connection. Signing out or deleting your account removes the app's copy of your data from your phone. Images the app has shown may stay in your phone's image cache briefly; the system clears them over time.
Keeping and deleting your data
We keep your data for as long as your account exists. You can delete your account any time in Profile → Delete account. This permanently deletes your recipes, books, pantry, grocery list, and meal plan, removes you from your household, and deletes your login. Books you shared with your household are deleted too, so other members lose access to them. Recipes you added to someone else's shared book stay in that book. Uploaded photo files may remain with our storage provider at their unguessable addresses. You can also email us to ask us to delete your data.
Children
Recibe is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
