Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 November 2026 · This is a translation of the Dutch privacy policy, which is the authoritative version.

RightSetFret is offered by PLAN B EBVBA (Boeyenstraat 10, 3600 Genk, Belgium). We value your privacy and collect as little data as possible. This policy explains which data is processed and why.

Your account

You sign in with Sign in with Apple. We store a stable account identifier provided by Apple and — only if you choose to share it — your name. This data is used solely to recognise your account. Your email address is managed by Apple; you can choose to hide it.

Your recipes and cookbooks

Your recipes, cookbooks and meal plans are stored in your own iCloud (Apple CloudKit, private database) under your Apple ID, and sync across your devices. This data lives in your iCloud; we have no access to it.

Shared shopping list

If you choose to share a shopping list, that list is stored in a shared iCloud space (CloudKit public database), linked to a family code you choose. Anyone who knows the same code can view and edit that list. Only share your code with people you trust.

Sharing recipes with your family

You can choose to share your saved recipes with your family. This is off by default and you turn it on yourself with a single switch in Settings. When on, your recipes (text and a downscaled photo) are stored in the same family-code-protected shared space as the shopping list, so family members with the same code can view them and, if they wish, copy them into their own collection. You choose your own family display name. The full-resolution photo stays in your own iCloud; only a downscaled version is shared. If you turn sharing off, or sign out or delete your account, your shared recipes are removed from that space. As with the shopping list: only share your family code with people you trust.

Community and your public profile

When you first sign in with Apple, the app automatically creates a basic account on our server. It contains only a technical reference to your Apple account and a randomly generated username — no name, no email address. As long as you do nothing further, this account is visible to no one and nothing is done with it; it exists so that features like notifications and your free import allowance work across your devices.

If you complete your profile, we store what you enter: your chosen username, display name, an optional bio and profile photo, your year of birth (to check that you are 13 or older) and optionally your favourite cuisines and cooking level. Your gender, if you enter it, is never publicly visible.

Your cookbook, meal planning, shopping list and notes stay on your own device and in your personal iCloud — we never see those. If you set your profile to public, your recipes become visible to others (without the photos of imported recipes — we never publish those), until you switch it off again or exclude a recipe. Also visible to others while your profile is public: your cooking logs with your rating and any note and photo, who you follow and who follows you, and how often your recipes are saved and cooked.

If you allow notifications, we store a device code and your device’s time zone — the time zone is used only to avoid disturbing you at night. In the app you choose which kinds of notifications you want; switching one off takes effect on our server, not just on your device.

We count on your account how many free imports you have used. For an imported recipe we store the link to its source (for example the TikTok video) so that you — and, if you share the recipe, others — can revisit that source.

You can download your data or delete your account entirely at any time via Settings; we then erase everything described above from our servers. The data controller is Studio Plan B; the data is stored on servers in the EU.

Importing recipes

When you import a recipe (a link, pasted text, or an image), that content is sent to our server service to turn it into a recipe. An external AI service (Anthropic Claude) is used to structure the text. For social media links, the server fetches the publicly available content of the post (caption, cover image, audio) to read the recipe. This content is processed only to fulfil your request and is not kept longer than necessary.

Usage statistics

To improve RightSetFret we collect anonymous usage statistics using PostHog. This data is processed on servers in the European Union and is never used to identify you.

We measure which features are used — for example how often a recipe is imported or a meal plan is created — along with a few general characteristics of the installation: your device’s language and region setting, the app version, the chosen theme, whether you have a subscription, and roughly how many recipes your collection holds (in broad brackets, such as “25–49”). Your installation is given a random number so that individual events can be grouped together. That number is not linked to your name, email address or Apple account.

We also measure which screens are viewed and how often an import fails. If the app crashes, a crash report with technical details about the error, such as the device type and app version, is sent the next time it starts.

What we do not collect: your recipes, photos, notes and shopping lists. Those stay on your device and in your own iCloud. We do not track you across other apps or websites.

Ad measurement

We advertise RightSetFret on Facebook and Instagram. To know which ads actually lead to an install — and so avoid spending ad money for nothing — the app uses the Meta SDK. It reports to Meta that the app was installed and opened, and whether you created an account.

This is deliberately limited. We do not ask permission to track you: you will never see the iOS prompt “Allow RightSetFret to track you”, and your advertising identifier (IDFA) is never read. Meta therefore only receives aggregated measurement data through Apple's own system, not a profile of you across apps. Your recipes, photos and lists are never shared with Meta.

You can switch this off in the app under Settings → Usage statistics and ad measurement. That stops both this measurement and the usage statistics.

Subscriptions and payments

Subscriptions and purchases are handled entirely by Apple (App Store). We do not receive or store any payment details. Managing and cancelling your subscription happens via your Apple ID settings.

What we don't do

We do not sell your personal data. We do not share any content — recipes, photos, notes or lists — with advertisers. The only thing an advertising platform receives from us is the limited install measurement described under “Ad measurement” above.

External services

Your rights

You can access, correct or delete your data. You can delete your recipes in iCloud yourself in the app. If you want your account and associated data erased, please contact us. Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectification, erasure and objection.

Children

RightSetFret is not aimed at children and does not knowingly collect data from children. Creating a public profile requires being 13 or older; the app itself and family sharing have no age limit.

Changes

We may update this policy. We will announce significant changes in the app or on this page.
