Privacy Policy

Effective August 1, 2026

This policy explains how Your Dinner Plans, LLC handles information when you create and use a Dinner Plans family account.

1. Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to the Dinner Plans website, applications, and related services operated by Your Dinner Plans, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). It does not apply to third-party recipe sites or other services you choose to use.

2. Information we collect

Account and household information

When account services are enabled, we receive identity information through Supabase Auth, such as an account identifier, email address, display name, profile image, and verification status. Supabase processes passwords; Dinner Plans does not receive or store plaintext passwords. We also process your family name, household memberships, roles, and invitations.

Planning content

We process dinner plans, recipe links, ingredients, servings, nutrition values, meal tags, suggested sides, grocery items, preferred brands, hidden-item preferences, and saved worksheet copies that you choose to store.

Personalization and communication choices

When a family account is created, we may ask for household-level information such as usual diners, numbers of adults and children, dinners prepared at home, meal-planning priorities, and optional dietary notes. We use these answers to personalize serving defaults, suggestions, and planning shortcuts. We also record your acceptance of the Terms and your optional choice to receive marketing email. You can decline marketing email without losing access to the Service.

Technical and security information

We may collect IP address, browser and device information, request timestamps, authentication events, security events, errors, and limited diagnostic logs. Session cookies are used to keep you signed in and protect your account.

Information from recipe pages

When you submit a recipe URL, our server requests that page to extract recipe metadata. If standard recipe metadata is unavailable and AI-assisted import is enabled, relevant page text may be sent to our AI service provider to extract recipe details. Do not submit private or authenticated URLs.

3. How we use information

We use information to provide and personalize the Service; authenticate users; segregate household data; import and scale recipes; generate grocery worksheets; operate support; send marketing messages when you opt in; detect abuse; secure and troubleshoot the Service; meet legal obligations; and improve reliability. We do not use household planning content or personalization answers to serve targeted advertising.

4. How we disclose information

We may disclose information to household members according to their roles; to infrastructure, authentication, database, monitoring, email, bot-protection, and AI vendors acting on our behalf; when you direct us to; to protect users, rights, safety, and the Service; in connection with a business transaction; or when required by law. Cloudflare Turnstile may process technical request and challenge information to distinguish people from automated abuse. We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

5. Data retention

We intend to keep account and planning information while your account is active and for a limited period afterward when needed for recovery, security, legal compliance, or dispute resolution. Backups may persist for a defined rotation period. Final production retention schedules—including logs, deleted accounts, invitations, and backups—will be published before general availability.

6. Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information, including encrypted transport, managed storage encryption, secret management, server-enforced authorization, protected sessions, input limits, monitoring, backups, and security testing. No system can be guaranteed completely secure. Learn more in our Security Overview.

7. Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may withdraw marketing consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in a marketing message or contacting us. Account self-service and verified request procedures must be operational before general availability. Until then, contact privacy@yourdinnerplans.com. We may need to verify your identity.

8. Cookies

We use strictly necessary cookies for authentication and session management. We do not currently describe advertising cookies or cross-site tracking because they are not part of the planned Service. If analytics or additional cookies are introduced, we will update this policy and provide consent controls where required.

9. Children

The Service is intended for adults managing a household and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. Contact us if you believe a child provided information.

10. International use

The Service is operated from the United States. If you access it elsewhere, information may be processed in the United States and other locations where our providers operate. Any required transfer mechanisms will be documented before offering the Service in jurisdictions that require them.

11. Changes

We may update this policy as the Service and legal requirements evolve. We will post the updated policy, revise the effective date, and provide additional notice when required.

12. Contact

Contact Your Dinner Plans, LLC at privacy@yourdinnerplans.com. A mailing address and any required state or international privacy notices will be added before general availability.
