2) Accounts, Membership Access, and Sign-In
Some features, including member-only recipe downloads, may require you to sign in and/or verify membership status.
To verify access, we may use Google sign-in and YouTube-related permissions to confirm your YouTube channel identity and membership eligibility. We use this information only to operate the member access feature and to prevent unauthorized access.
Access may be limited, suspended, or revoked if we reasonably believe:
an account is being used to bypass access controls,
shared credentials are being used improperly,
automated or abusive behavior is occurring,
or the Services are being used in violation of these Terms.
3) Email and Communications
If you subscribe to receive emails, recipe links, or updates, you agree to receive messages you requested. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in our emails. Unsubscribing may prevent you from receiving certain updates or access instructions.
4) Affiliate Links and Disclosures
Some links on our website or in our content may be affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. We disclose affiliate relationships where required.
5) User Conduct and Community Standards
You agree not to:
misuse the Services,
attempt to access restricted areas without authorization,
scrape, crawl, or automate access in a way that harms the site,
upload or transmit malware or harmful code,
harass, threaten, or post unlawful, abusive, or offensive content.
We reserve the right to remove comments or restrict access to maintain a respectful environment.
6) Food Safety, Results, and Disclaimers
Cooking outcomes vary. While recipes are tested, we cannot guarantee results in every kitchen, with every ingredient, or with every substitution.
You are responsible for:
verifying ingredient suitability for dietary needs and allergies,
handling food safely,
cooking to appropriate temperatures,
and using appropriate judgment when preparing and consuming food.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for outcomes related to ingredient substitutions, technique changes, kitchen conditions, or individual dietary requirements.
7) Third-Party Services
The Services may link to or interact with third-party services (for example, YouTube, Google sign-in, payment platforms, affiliate partners). We do not control those third-party services and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms.
8) Termination
We may suspend or terminate access to the Services at any time if you violate these Terms or if we reasonably believe your use presents risk to the Services or other users.
9) Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date will reflect the latest version. Your continued use of the Services after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
