Pantry Chef Terms of Service

1. Service Description #

Pantry Chef helps you plan meals, discover recipes, and manage a pantry/shopping list. Some features generate content using automated systems (“your chef”). Results (recipes, nutrition estimates, categorizations) are informational only and may contain errors.

Food Diary (Premium): The App may offer photo-based calorie and macro estimation. Images are processed transiently by our backend and/or trusted AI providers to return an estimate and are not stored longer than necessary. Diary entries (numbers, notes, and a small local thumbnail) are saved on your device; you can reset/delete entries in Settings. Nutrition estimates are approximations and not medical advice.

2. Eligibility & Accounts #

• You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction. The App is not directed to children under 13.
• No account is required. Local data (e.g., pantry, saved recipes) is stored on your device.

3. Acceptable Use #

You agree not to: (a) violate laws or third-party rights; (b) attempt to disrupt or overload the service; (c) reverse-engineer or scrape; (d) misrepresent generated outputs as human-expert advice.

4. Intellectual Property; License #

We own the App, UI, and logos. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, revocable, non-transferable license to use the App. You retain rights to your inputs; you grant us a license to process them to operate, maintain, protect, and improve the App.
