Effective August 13, 2026 · Last updated August 13, 2026

Your trust matters. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use Stoveside.

1. Information you provide

We collect information you provide when you create an account or use the service, such as your email address or phone number, display name, profile photo, city, recipes, comments, messages, reports, and support requests.

2. Information collected automatically

We receive device, app, language, approximate region, diagnostic, and interaction information needed to keep Stoveside secure, understand performance, and improve the experience. We may use cookies or similar technologies on our website to remember preferences and understand page usage.

3. How we use information

We use information to provide and personalize Stoveside, show content and recommendations, facilitate sessions and messages, process purchases, prevent abuse, respond to support, comply with law, and communicate service updates.

4. Sharing

We share information with service providers that help us host, secure, analyze, support, and process payments for Stoveside. We may share information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We do not sell personal information.

5. Content and visibility

Information you choose to publish, including your profile, recipes, photos, comments, and session listings, may be visible to other members or the public depending on the feature. Use care before posting personal details.

6. Choices and rights

You can update profile information in the app, manage notifications and permissions through your device, and request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of your information by contacting us. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

7. Retention and security

We retain information for as long as needed for the purposes described here, including legal, accounting, safety, and dispute-resolution needs. We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards, but no service can guarantee absolute security.

8. Children

Stoveside is intended for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided information.

9. Contact and updates
