Account information. DishCache stores your email address, account identifier, and a display name if you provide one. This information is used to create your account, sign you in, recover access, and keep your web and iOS libraries connected.

Recipe information. DishCache stores what you add to your library, including recipe links, titles, summaries, ingredients, instructions, notes, tags, images, source details, sharing choices, and the timestamps and revision records needed for sync.

Device and service information. DishCache records a device identifier, platform, and optional device name to support sync. Its hosting and security providers may also process ordinary connection and diagnostic data, such as IP address, browser or device type, request path, date and time, and error details. DishCache does not use advertising SDKs or cross-site tracking.

In app versions with photo capture, you choose recipe photos, screenshots, or camera scans. Text recognition runs on your device using Apple Vision. DishCache does not send these images to an external AI service for recognition.

The app keeps a local draft and saves page images as resized JPEG copies with location metadata removed. When you save the recipe, its text and page copies sync to your private account through Supabase. Unsaved drafts stay on the device. Signing out removes the local library and drafts; the app warns you about work that has not synced.

Photo recipes start private, and their source images and recognized source text are excluded from shared pages unless you choose to include them. Keep original image files separately if you need their full resolution.

• Save recipe links and extract useful recipe details from public web pages.
• Store, search, sync, cook from, print, share, and export your recipes.
• Keep private recipes private and apply the sharing settings you choose.
• Send sign-in, sign-up, password-recovery, and other necessary account email.
• Prevent abuse, diagnose failures, secure accounts, and answer support requests.

DishCache does not sell personal information, serve targeted advertising, or use your recipe library to build advertising profiles.

New recipes are private by default. A private recipe is available only through your signed-in account.

An unlisted recipe can be opened by anyone who has its link. DishCache tells search engines not to index unlisted pages, but the link can still be copied or forwarded. Treat it like any other private link you choose to share.

A public recipe can be viewed by anyone and may be indexed by search engines. Before sharing, you can choose whether the shared page includes notes, source details, preserved source content, and images. Turning sharing off stops the current DishCache page or link, but it cannot retrieve copies someone already saved or forwarded.

DishCache uses a small set of service providers:

• Supabase provides account authentication, database hosting, and recipe-image storage.
• Vercel hosts the DishCache web app and handles web and API requests.
• Resend delivers transactional account email, such as confirmation and password-recovery messages.

When you save a link, DishCache requests that public page so it can read the recipe. The source website may receive ordinary request information, such as the requesting IP address and page URL. Each provider handles information under its own service and security terms.

The web app uses essential session cookies to keep you signed in and secure your account. The iOS app stores the session information it needs on your device. DishCache does not use advertising cookies.

Account and recipe information is kept while your account is active so your library remains available. You can download an export of your library while signed in.

You can start account deletion from the iOS app. If you cannot access the app, email neil@neilofneils.com. Account deletion removes your DishCache account, recipe records, active sharing links, and managed recipe images. Limited security logs or provider backups may remain for their normal retention periods before being overwritten or deleted.

You control whether a recipe stays private or is shared, what a shared page includes, and whether to keep or delete your account. DishCache does not send advertising email.

For a privacy question or request, email neil@neilofneils.com. DishCache is a general-audience recipe service and is not directed to children under 13.
