These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the What To Cook mobile application and related services ("the app", "we", "us"). By downloading or using the app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
1. The service
What To Cook uses artificial intelligence to generate cooking recipes and food images based on the ingredients and preferences you provide. The app is provided free of charge, requires no account, and stores your preferences on your device.
2. License
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on devices you own or control, in accordance with these Terms and the rules of the app store you downloaded it from (Apple App Store or Google Play). You may use generated recipes for personal, non-commercial cooking.
3. AI-generated content — important food safety notice
Recipes, cooking times, temperatures, nutritional hints, and ingredient substitutions in the app are generated by artificial intelligence and may contain errors. You are responsible for using your own judgment when cooking. In particular:
- Allergies: the app tries to respect the allergies you enter, but AI can make mistakes. Always check every ingredient yourself before cooking or eating if you or anyone you cook for has a food allergy or intolerance. Do not rely on the app as your only safeguard.
- Food safety: always follow established food-safety guidance for storage, handling, and minimum safe cooking temperatures (especially for meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs), regardless of what a generated recipe says.
- Health and nutrition: the app does not provide medical, dietary, or nutritional advice. Consult a qualified professional for dietary needs related to a medical condition.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the app for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms;
- Attempt to probe, overload, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to our servers or API;
- Circumvent rate limits, authentication, or other technical protections;
- Use automated means to bulk-generate content from the service;
- Attempt to make the service generate harmful, unlawful, or dangerous content;
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or resell the app or the service, except where such restriction is prohibited by law.
5. Intellectual property
The app, its design, branding, and software are owned by us and protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we do not claim ownership of the specific recipe text generated for you — you may use it for personal cooking. Trademarks of Apple Inc. and Google LLC belong to their respective owners.
6. Availability and changes
The app depends on third-party AI services and our servers. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability and may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time. We may update these Terms; continued use of the app after an update constitutes acceptance. The "Last updated" date above reflects the current version.
7. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what data the app handles and is part of these Terms. In short: no accounts, your profile stays on your device, and ingredient requests are processed only to generate your recipe.
8. Disclaimer of warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT GENERATED RECIPES ARE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, SAFE FOR YOUR SPECIFIC DIETARY NEEDS, OR ERROR-FREE.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP — INCLUDING RELIANCE ON AI-GENERATED CONTENT. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS SHALL NOT EXCEED FIFTY US DOLLARS (USD $50) OR THE MINIMUM AMOUNT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, AND NOTHING AFFECTS STATUTORY CONSUMER RIGHTS.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of the app or violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
11. App store terms
If you downloaded the app from the Apple App Store, Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies, and Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms with the right to enforce them. If you downloaded the app from Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply. Apple and Google are not responsible for the app or its content, maintenance, or support.
12. Termination
You may stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. We may suspend or terminate access to the service (for example, for abuse of the API or violation of these Terms) without notice.
13. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the app publisher is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where the mandatory consumer-protection law of your country of residence applies.
