Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 26, 2026

Recipe Mise LLC ("Recipe Mise," "we," "us," or "our") operates the Mise mobile application and related services (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using Mise, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

• Account information: name, email address, and password when you register.
• Profile and preferences: dietary preferences, household size, and similar settings.
• User content: recipes, cookbooks, meal plans, shopping lists, photos, and notes you create or upload.
• Communications: support requests and other messages you send to us.

Information collected automatically

• Device and usage data: device type, operating system, app version, language, crash logs, and feature usage.
• Log data: IP address, request timestamps, and diagnostic information.
• Cookies and similar technologies on our website for analytics and basic functionality.

Information from third parties

If you sign in with a third-party provider or import recipes from external sources, we may receive information from those services as permitted by you and by their terms.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.
• Personalize features such as meal planning, recipe suggestions, and shopping lists.
• Process AI-assisted features (for example, recipe generation and step-by-step cooking guidance).
• Send transactional messages such as account, security, and service updates.
• Monitor performance, prevent abuse, and protect the security of the Service.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

3. AI Features

Mise uses artificial intelligence to help you create recipes, plan meals, and cook hands-free. When you use these features, the content you submit (such as a recipe description or photo) may be sent to third-party AI providers under contractual protections. We do not authorize these providers to use your content to train their general-purpose models.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as described below:

• Service providers who help us operate Mise (cloud hosting, analytics, AI processing, email delivery, payment processing) under contracts that limit their use of your data.
• Other users, only when you choose to share content (such as a shared recipe link or cookbook).
• Legal and safety reasons, when we reasonably believe disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, or the integrity of the Service.
• Business transfers, in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to standard confidentiality protections.

5. Data Retention and Account Deletion

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

You may delete your account at any time from within the app (Account → Delete Account) or via the link at the bottom of this page. When you initiate deletion:

• Soft-delete window. Your account is immediately disabled and you can no longer sign in. After 30 days, your remaining account record is permanently purged. The grace period exists to recover from accidental deletion (contact support during the window).
• Recipes you typed in yourself are deleted, along with their photos.
• Private recipes are always deleted, regardless of how they got into your account. Recipes are private by default; only recipes you explicitly marked as public are subject to the retention rule below.
• Recipes you imported from a URL, social media, a photo of a cookbook, or generated with AI and explicitly marked as public are retained in the public catalog with your name removed. These recipes are not your original creative work, and other users may already have referenced them in their meal plans or shopping lists.
• Recipe photos that you uploaded yourself (which could contain you, your kitchen, or other people) are deleted. If the recipe is retained as an anonymous catalog entry, an AI-generated replacement photo is created automatically.
• Ratings and reviews you wrote are deleted outright.
• Crash and diagnostic logs may persist in our error-reporting provider's systems per their retention policy (typically 30-90 days), after which they are automatically purged.
• Some records may be retained longer where required by law (e.g. tax records for paid subscriptions, abuse-investigation logs).

6. Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information, including encryption in transit and access controls. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Rights and Choices

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

• Access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you.
• Object to or restrict certain processing of your personal information.
• Receive a portable copy of your information.
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

You can exercise most of these rights directly in the app, or by contacting us at the address below.

8. Children's Privacy

Mise is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

9. International Users

Mise is operated from the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you through the app or by other reasonable means. The "Effective date" above indicates when this policy was last revised.
