Plain English. No dark patterns.

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and the data you provide during onboarding (kitchen temperature range, equipment, experience level).

When you log a bake, we store the data you enter — recipe, timing, results, photos. This data stays associated with your account.

We collect basic device information (model, OS version), app usage data, and crash reports to keep the app working. We do not collect contacts, location history, or other off-app data.

Your bake data is used to personalize your experience — adapting timing predictions, refining recommendations, and tracking your progress over time.

Aggregated, anonymized data helps us improve the app's overall predictions. Individual data is never sold or shared with third parties for marketing.

We may email you about important account changes or major app updates. You can unsubscribe from optional communications at any time.

We don't sell your data. Ever. To anyone. For any reason.

We don't use third-party advertising trackers. The app is ad-free.

We don't share your bake history with other users without your explicit action (e.g., sharing a specific recipe).

We don't use your data to train models for non-baking purposes.

You can access, export, and delete your data at any time from the app settings or by emailing us.

You can opt out of analytics collection from app settings.

If you're in the EU, UK, or California, you have additional rights under GDPR/CCPA — including the right to data portability and the right to know what we have on file. Email us to exercise any of these rights.

All payments are processed by Apple App Store. We never see or store your payment information.

We retain records of your purchase status (active/inactive) and history for support purposes.

Our servers are based in the United States. If you're outside the US, your data may be transferred and processed there.

For European users, we comply with GDPR requirements and provide additional rights and protections.

We may update this policy occasionally. Significant changes will be communicated through the app or email.
