Terms of use.
Effective: May 2026
These terms govern your use of RecipeGen, an iOS application published by IdeaGen Technologies (Malaysian business registration JR0189683-T). If you don’t agree, don’t use the app.
RecipeGen is a personal recipe, meal-planning, and pantry app published by IdeaGen Technologies. We provide it as-is, with no guarantees about uptime, accuracy of imported or AI-generated recipes, or fitness for any particular purpose.
You’re responsible for activity under your account. Pick a display name that doesn’t impersonate someone else or violate these terms. Display names are screened automatically; ones flagged as objectionable will be rejected.
You can delete your account at any time from Settings → Delete account. Deletion is permanent.
You must be at least 13 years old to use RecipeGen. If you’re under 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher), you confirm that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed these terms and agrees to be bound by them on your behalf.
We don’t knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If you believe a minor has signed up, contact us at the address below and we’ll remove the account.
When you mark a recipe Public, its title, description, ingredients, instructions, and any photo become visible to all users in Discover, attributed to your display name. Don’t publish content you don’t have the right to share.
You retain ownership of recipes you publish. By making a recipe Public, you grant RecipeGen a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, display, and reproduce it for the purpose of operating the app and serving it to other users in Discover. This license ends when you flip the recipe back to Private or delete it — except that copies already saved by other users are independently theirs and survive your change.
Other users can save your public recipe to their own library. Once saved, copies are theirs to edit; flipping your original back to Private doesn’t affect copies that have already been saved, and deleting your account doesn’t recall them either. Author attribution on saved copies snapshots your display name at the time of cloning — if you later change your display name, existing saved copies continue to show the name in effect when they were saved.
You agree not to post recipes or other content that is unlawful, hateful, harassing, deceptive, sexually explicit, dangerous, or otherwise objectionable. We reserve the right to remove content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate this rule, with no notice and no refund.
The “⋯” menu on any public recipe lets you report the recipe or its author, and/or block the author. Reports are reviewed; blocked authors’ recipes are hidden from your Discover feed. Manage blocks from Settings → Blocked users.
Some features (recipe generation, URL extraction fallback, ingredient normalization, display-name moderation) use OpenAI’s language models. AI output may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsafe. You’re responsible for verifying any AI output before cooking, eating, or sharing it.
AI usage is metered. Free accounts get five AI ops per calendar month. Pantry Pro subscribers get unlimited AI under a fair-use cap that’s set well above any reasonable individual use. Optional one-time credit packs add ten ops at a time and never expire. We surface the remaining quota in the import and snap screens. See Pricing for the full breakdown.
The app uses Supabase (auth, database, storage, edge functions) and OpenAI (AI features). Their respective terms and privacy policies apply to data they process on our behalf. See our privacy notice for details.
If you obtained the app through the Apple App Store, the Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies in addition to these terms. Where the two conflict, the Apple LAEULA governs your use of the iOS app.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we’re not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app, including injury or illness related to recipes prepared from app content.
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Malaysia. Disputes that aren’t resolved through direct contact will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Malaysia. Where local consumer-protection law (EU GDPR, UK Consumer Rights Act, California digital-purchase rules, Malaysia’s Consumer Protection Act, etc.) grants you stronger rights, those rights apply on top of these terms.
We may update these terms. Material changes will be surfaced in the app before they take effect. Continued use after a change means you accept the new terms.
