Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 29, 2026

1. What this policy covers

Agile Plate is a recipe and pantry app, operated by Zenturetech LLC. This policy covers the mobile app, this website, and any other way the service reaches you. By "we," "us," or "the company" we mean Zenturetech LLC.

2. How you get an account — no form, no email, no password

You don't sign up. The first time the app starts, it creates your account by itself:

• a random identity code it keeps in your device's secure storage,
• and a recovery phrase — a few random words — that you write down and keep somewhere safe.

Your identity is that device key. There is no email address on file and there is no password. (The internal database keeps a meaningless, made-up placeholder value in the field where other apps would store an email. It points to nothing and is never used to contact you.)

3. What we keep

Your content — exactly what you chose to save:

• Recipes: titles, steps, ingredients, and the photos attached to them.
• Captures in progress: a recipe or pantry capture you've started but haven't finished reviewing.
• Pantry shelves: the items and the shelf photos used to create them.
• Shopping lists and the items in them.

Device records: the random device code, the device's name as you'd see it in Settings (for example "Brad's iPhone"), and when that device last connected.

Purchase records: when you subscribe, the store you bought from (Apple on iPhone, Google Play on Android) sends us a notice, and we keep the record needed to know whether your subscription is active: the transaction ID the store assigned, which plan it is, its dates, and its state (trial, active, expired). The store handles your payment itself — we never see your card details or your store account.

Usage counts: once per day, per kind of thing you did (for example, that a capture happened today). The count contains no content — no recipe names, no photos, no text. We also keep total daily counts across all users with nothing attached to any one person.

Website pairing records: the website has no email or password accounts — but a browser can pair to your app account (the app's Settings → "Pair Web Session"). Each pairing creates one session record that keeps the browser's IP address and browser information for the life of that session; it disappears when you sign out, inactivity ends it, or your account is deleted. Ordinary automated API traffic doesn't create records like this.

4. What we never do

• We never show advertising, and nothing in the app follows you onto other websites or other apps.
• We don't use outside analytics products, and we don't share or sell data to anyone for marketing.
• We don't collect your location. Your device code is a random string with nothing in it — it can't tell us where you are.
• We don't ask for your contacts, your messages, your health data, or anything else about you beyond what's listed here.

5. The jobs done by outside companies

We name jobs rather than brands, so the policy stays true while services change. If a different company takes over a job, what counts stays the same: your data travels for that job and no further, and this page still describes it.

• An AI reading service — when you submit shelf photos, recipe photos, or recipe text for capture, we send that photo or that text to an AI service we pay for, so it can read the page or the shelf and turn it into items and steps. What comes back is stored with your recipes. The service receives your content only to do that job for us: it isn't used to sell or show advertising, isn't used to profile you, and isn't used to train the service's models with our customers' content.
• A file-storage service — keeps your photo files for us in its data centers; only our service can read them.
• Whichever app store you bought from — the App Store on iPhone, Google Play on Android — runs your purchase and subscription, holds your payment details, and never shares them or your store account with us. That store sends us notices when your subscription changes so our records stay accurate.
• The pages behind the discovery search — the Recipes page can show you search results from Google and the recipe sites you pick, inside the app. Your search runs in the app's own window and never touches our servers; those pages belong to their providers, and what they show or keep is governed by their own terms, not this policy.

Some decorative food images in the app are generated from the recipe's own text — by services on our own side, never with your photos. Everything else — your recipes, pantry, lists, and account records — runs entirely on our own servers.

6. Where things live, and for how long

Your content and records are kept while your account exists. When your account is deleted (see below), the contents go too. The daily counts are just numbers and are kept without a personal record to remove.

7. Deleting your account

Settings inside the app → Delete account. That one action erases everything: your recipes, steps, ingredients, the photos (including the files on Cloudflare's storage), your pantry and shelves, your shopping lists, unfinished captures, every device's access to your account, the fingerprint of your recovery phrase, and the purchase records. It's permanent. Because we hold no email and can't read the recovery phrase, there's no copy that could rebuild the account afterward — that's the point.

Two things deletion does not do:

• Uninstalling the app does not delete anything. Removing the app from your phone leaves your account and all your saved work standing on our side. That's why deletion lives inside the app, in Settings — so the app itself is the door out. (The same applies to Apple's "delete and reinstall" advice, which never reaches us.)
• Deleting your account does not cancel your subscription or refund time you've paid. Cancel — and request any refund — the usual way, in your store's subscription settings (the App Store on iPhone, Google Play on Android); that store applies its own terms there.

8. Your recovery phrase — please read this part

The recovery phrase is the only way to get back into your account on a new or repaired device. We keep it only as an unreadable fingerprint, so nobody can look it up for you — including us. There's no backup email or phone number on file to fall back on, so keep the phrase safe: if your device is lost or dies and the phrase is lost with it, the account and everything in it can't be brought back. Your subscription records remain yours at the store you bought from, but the recipes can't return without the phrase.

9. Children

Agile Plate isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly keep a child's personal information. If one reaches us, we'll delete it.

10. Your rights

You can see, correct, export, or delete your information — most of it directly in the app, the rest by contacting us. We never sell personal information, and we don't share it for advertising. If a US state privacy law applies to you, you can contact us to exercise your rights to access, correct, and delete your data.

11. Security

All traffic is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Your identity keys live on your device in its own secure storage; on our side, access keys and recovery phrases exist only as unreadable fingerprints. Administrative access to the service is limited to the operator, and use of that access is itself logged.

12. Changes to this policy

If our practices change, we'll update this page and the date at the top. If a change is significant, we'll make it plain in the app or here on this page.
