Privacy Policy.

Effective Date: August 11, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information Savormate ("we," "us," "our") collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. Savormate is operated by SAVORMATE, LLC.

1. Information we collect

Account information: if you sign in, we collect your email address to create and secure your account (via a one-time link or code — we never see or store a password).

App data: your meal-plan quiz answers (household size, dietary restrictions, allergies, cook time, budget, cuisine preferences), taste ratings, pantry items, saved and imported recipes, grocery lists, and generated meal plans. This is stored on your device and, if you sign in, also synced to your account so it's available across devices.

Device identifier: if you use the App without an account, we generate a random, anonymous identifier stored on your device to enforce free-tier usage limits. It isn't linked to your real-world identity unless you later sign in.

Payment information: if you subscribe to Savormate Plus, payments are handled by our payment providers — Stripe on the web, and Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store) in our mobile apps, managed through RevenueCat. We never receive or store your full card number — we only store your subscription status.

Usage data: basic interaction data (e.g., which dishes you rate, which features you use) to improve your recommendations and the App generally.

Diagnostics: we collect crash reports and error logs (via Sentry) to keep the App stable and fix problems. These aren't used to identify you.

2. How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Generate your meal plans, recipes, and grocery lists
  • Sync your data across your signed-in devices
  • Personalize recommendations based on your taste and pantry
  • Process payments and manage your subscription
  • Enforce free-tier usage limits and prevent abuse
  • Diagnose crashes and errors to keep the App reliable
  • Send you account-related emails (e.g., sign-in links, receipts)

We do not use your email to send marketing communications unless you separately opt in, and we do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. AI processing

To generate meal plans and recipes, relevant details you provide (like your quiz answers, pantry items, or pasted/imported recipe text) are sent to Anthropic's Claude API for that specific generation request. This is a service provider relationship — Anthropic processes this content to return a result to you and does not use it to train their models on our behalf beyond their standard API terms.

4. Recipe URL imports

If you paste a link to import a recipe, our server fetches that page's content to extract the recipe. We validate the URL to prevent it from being used to access internal or private network addresses. The fetched content is used only to generate your recipe and is not stored beyond that.

5. Who we share information with

We share information only with the service providers that power the App:

  • Supabase — authentication and database hosting for your account and synced app data
  • Anthropic — processes prompts to generate meal plans, recipes, and nutrition estimates
  • Stripe — processes payments for Savormate Plus on the web
  • RevenueCat — manages mobile subscriptions and communicates with the App Store and Play Store
  • Apple and Google — process in-app purchases in our mobile apps
  • Sentry — crash and error reporting to keep the App stable
  • Vercel — hosts the App
  • Upstash — short-lived rate-limiting data to prevent abuse
  • Brevo — email delivery and contact management; we share your email address to send account-related emails and, if you opt in, marketing emails

We don't share your information with advertisers or data brokers, and we don't sell it. If Savormate is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this Policy.

6. International data transfers

Savormate is based in the United States, and the service providers we use (Supabase, Anthropic, Stripe, RevenueCat, Sentry, Vercel, Upstash, Brevo) may process and store data in the United States or other countries. If you're located outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, which may have different data protection laws than your home country. We take reasonable steps to ensure your information receives an adequate level of protection wherever it's processed.

7. How we protect your information

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access — including encrypting data in transit, restricting who can access it, and relying on reputable service providers with their own security practices. That said, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.

8. Your choices and rights

You can remove saved recipes, pantry items, and grocery lists directly in the App at any time. You can sign out, which stops new syncing to your account.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Delete — request that we delete your personal information and account
  • Portability — request a copy of your data in a portable, machine-readable format
  • Correct — request that we fix inaccurate information
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights
  • Appeal — ask us to reconsider if we decline a request

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@savormate.com — we'll respond within a reasonable time and in line with applicable law (e.g., GDPR or CCPA, if they apply to you). To appeal a decision, email us with "Appeal" in the subject line.

9. Data retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account (by request), we delete your associated data within a reasonable period, except where we're required to retain records (e.g., for tax or legal purposes).

10. Children's privacy

You must be 18 or older to use Savormate. The service is intended for adults and is not directed at children. Consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under 18 to create or keep an account. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13 — or that a user is under 18 — we will take steps to delete that account and its associated data. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us personal information, contact us at info@savormate.com and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the "Effective Date" above.
