Privacy Policy

Last updated 6 November 2026

The short version

Your recipes, notes, week plan and household settings stay on your devices and in your own iCloud account. We use limited app usage analytics. There are no ads or accounts to create.

App usage analytics

We use PostHog in the EU to measure app activity, feature use, and where tasks succeed or fail. For example, an import event can include the method, source category, and a failure category. Events include a randomly generated installation identifier and information such as the app version, device model, and operating system. We keep recipe contents, links, notes, photos, and household details out of analytics.

Website usage analytics

On the home page and the comparison page, we use PostHog in the EU to count page visits, which sections of the home page are seen, and clicks on the Get the app, Email us and availability links. These events use a random identifier that lasts only for that page visit. We skip this measurement when your browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track.

In-app purchases

Apple processes App Store payments. We use RevenueCat to verify purchases, restore access and show available plans. RevenueCat receives a randomly generated app user identifier and purchase information. Recipe contents, notes, photos and household details stay out of purchase processing.

What the app stores

• Recipes you save or write, with their photos, notes and cooking history.
• Your kitchen settings: units, oven type and how many people you cook for.
• The people in your household and the foods they don't eat, if you add them.

This is stored on your device and synced with Apple's iCloud, under your Apple Account. Apple's privacy policy applies to iCloud.

Sharing with your household

When you invite someone, Apple's iCloud sharing makes your household's recipes, plan and notes visible to the people you invite. You can stop sharing at any time in Settings.

Importing recipes

When you share a link to Spices, the app loads that page directly from the website, the same way a browser would, to read the recipe. Screenshots and photos are read on your device. We don't receive the links or images.

Purchases

Purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. We don't see your payment details.

Children

The app usage analytics described above apply to everyone who uses Spices.

Changes

If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date above.
