Managing Your Preferences

You’re in control of how CravingChef communicates with you, how we use certain types of data, and what kind of content or ads you see. Below is a breakdown of the different ways you can manage your settings, whether it’s related to marketing, cookies, or ad personalization.

Marketing Communication Preferences

From time to time, we may reach out with updates, tips, recipes, or promotions we think you'll find useful. But if that’s not your thing, no worries—you can opt out whenever you like.

Cookie Settings

Cookies help CravingChef run smoothly, understand how people use the app, and make things more personalized. That said, how cookies are handled is up to you.

You can manage cookies directly through your browser’s settings—most browsers let you accept all cookies, block them entirely, or get notified when a site wants to use them.If you block or disable cookies, just be aware that some features might not work quite right (like saving your login info or keeping session activity).We use different types of cookies, including ones that are essential for the app to work, others that help us understand user behavior, and some that support personalization.

Ad Personalization & Cross-Device Tracking

CravingChef may use your activity to personalize ads or suggest content you might enjoy. We do this to make your experience more relevant—but you always have the ability to decide how much personalization you’re okay with.

Additional Controls via Third Parties

A number of third-party services offer tools to help you control how your information is used for marketing or analytics. This includes:

We recommend checking those out if you want more fine-tuned control over what data is used and how.

International Data Transfers

CravingChef is based in the U.S., and some of the services we use (like cloud storage, analytics, or support tools) may also be located in other countries. That means your personal info might be processed or stored outside of where you live—even in places with different privacy or data protection laws.When this happens, we follow the rules that apply and take steps to help keep your info safe during those transfers. That said, when your data is outside your home country, it could be subject to local laws there, and in some cases, governments or law enforcement might be able to access it.By using CravingChef or sharing your info with us, you’re acknowledging that your data might be sent to and handled in other countries as part of how the app works.

User Content & Sharing

CravingChef includes social and interactive features that let you create, upload, and share content—like recipes, photos, videos, progress updates, tips, comments, and more. Anything you choose to post or share through public parts of the app (like feeds, profiles, or challenges) may be visible to other users or even the public, depending on your settings.When you post content, you're agreeing that you're okay with others seeing, sharing, or reacting to it. You should only post content you're comfortable making public, and you’re responsible for what you share. We don’t promise any level of privacy for content you post in visible areas of the platform.Keep in mind: while you own the content you create, by uploading it, you're giving us permission to display and use it as needed to operate and improve the app, in line with our Terms. If you tag other users, use platform features like challenges or trending topics, or interact in community areas, those actions may also be visible or surfaced to others.For full details about how your content is handled, check out the “Content Ownership and Licenses” section in our Terms of Service.

How We Protect Your Information

We take your privacy seriously and put safeguards in place to help keep your personal data secure. Our systems are built with safety in mind, using a combination of access restrictions, backend protections, and regular checks to prevent unauthorized access or misuse.That said, no method of data storage or transmission over the internet is ever completely foolproof. While we do our best to protect your information, we can’t guarantee 100% security. We also encourage you to use strong passwords and be mindful of what you share, especially in public parts of the app.

How We Retain Your Information

We keep your information only as long as we need it—to run the app, support your experience, meet legal requirements, or resolve any issues that might come up. How long we hold on to your data depends on what it is, why we collected it, and what’s legally allowed.When your info is no longer needed, we either delete it or keep it in a form that no longer identifies you. If we use de-identified data (like for analytics or improving the platform), we don’t try to link it back to you unless the law requires it.

Your Privacy Choices & Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have certain legal rights over how your personal information is collected, used, and shared. These rights can include:

How to submit a request

These Terms shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of California and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to any conflict of law rules. Any disputes or claims arising from these Terms will be resolved exclusively in the courts located within California, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

12. Dispute Resolution

Please read this section carefully, as it outlines how disagreements between you and CravingChef will be handled. It affects your legal rights, including your right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action.We hope to resolve any issues directly and quickly. However, if a dispute arises between you and us regarding these Terms, your use of the app, our services, communications, or any transactions with us (a “Dispute”), the following rules apply:

Binding Arbitration

To the fullest extent permitted by law, both you and [Your App Name] agree to resolve all Disputes through final and binding arbitration. This means you are waiving your right to a trial in court and to have a judge or jury decide your case. Arbitration will be handled by a neutral arbitrator instead of a court, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA).

No Class Actions

You agree to bring any claim on an individual basis. That means you cannot bring or join any claim as part of a group, class, or representative action.

Exceptions

You or we may still take certain issues to court, including:

Location & Governing Law

Unless otherwise required by law, arbitration will be conducted in California. This agreement is governed by California law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

Survival

This section remains in effect even after your use of the Services ends or if this agreement is terminated.

13. Informal Dispute Resolution (Required Before Legal Action)

Before you or CravingChef take any legal steps — including filing a lawsuit or starting arbitration — both sides agree to make a real, good-faith effort to resolve the issue informally first. This helps reduce legal costs and encourages quicker resolutions.

How to Start the Informal Process

To begin, either party must send a written notice by email clearly describing:

What the dispute is about,
The specific outcome or solution being requested,
Any relevant supporting documents (if available).

You must send your notice to: [email protected]
We’ll send any notices to the email address associated with your account.

Time to Resolve

Once notice is sent, both sides agree to try to resolve the issue directly and informally for at least 60 days before taking any further legal steps. During this time, both parties agree to respond in a timely and respectful manner, and participate in any scheduled discussion (including a phone or video call if requested).

Pausing Deadlines

If there are any legal deadlines (like a statute of limitations), they will be paused (“tolled”) during this informal resolution period so neither side is penalized for trying to resolve things first.

Required Before Arbitration or Court

You may not file for arbitration or go to court unless this informal process has been completed and the 60-day period has passed. If you skip this step, your case may be dismissed, and you may be required to cover the other party’s legal costs related to the early filing.

14. Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

To the fullest extent allowed by law, you and CravingChef agree that any dispute or claim must be resolved on an individual basis only. That means:

In short: any legal dispute must be handled one-on-one.Additionally, you and CravingChef both waive any right to a jury trial in any legal dispute — whether the matter is decided in court or in arbitration.These limitations apply regardless of the type of dispute, legal theory, or requested relief. If a court determines that any part of this section is invalid or unenforceable, the rest will remain in effect.

Arbitration Agreement

To the fullest extent allowed by law, you and CravingChef agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or in connection with these Terms, your use of the app or services, or any communication between you and CravingChef, will be resolved through binding individual arbitration rather than in court. This means that neither you nor CravingChef will have the right to a jury trial or to pursue a class, collective, or representative action in any court or arbitration proceeding. All disputes will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. You may find more information on the AAA’s rules and process at www.adr.org.Before initiating arbitration, both parties agree to make a good faith effort to resolve the issue informally. This requires written notice of the dispute, a clear explanation of the issue and the desired outcome, and a 60-day period for resolution through direct communication. If the dispute cannot be resolved within this time, either party may choose to proceed with arbitration. The arbitrator will have the sole authority to decide all issues, including the scope and enforceability of this agreement and the rights of the parties.You and CravingChef also agree that arbitration will take place on an individual basis only. No party may bring or join claims as part of a class action, mass arbitration, or other consolidated proceeding. Any confidential information shared during arbitration must remain private, and any permitted court filings involving such information must be submitted under seal whenever possible. This Arbitration Agreement will remain in effect even if your relationship with CravingChef ends or your access to the services is terminated.

Mass Arbitration Management

If a significant number of users file similar claims against CravingChef, both you and CravingChef agree to manage those claims through a structured, phased process designed to reduce cost and complexity for everyone involved. At the outset, up to thirty (30) individual claims will be selected to move forward: fifteen (15) chosen by the users and fifteen (15) by CravingChef. Each selected case will be handled individually by a separate arbitrator.While these initial cases are being resolved, any remaining related claims will be placed on hold and not formally filed. This means claimants will not be responsible for arbitration or filing fees unless their claim is chosen for a future round. Additionally, all relevant legal deadlines—such as statutes of limitation—will be paused for those pending claims to preserve the users’ rights.After the first group of claims has been resolved, both parties agree to engage in good faith mediation to attempt to resolve the rest of the claims. CravingChef will cover the costs of this mediation, which will be led by a neutral mediator, such as a retired judge. If a settlement is not reached, the next group of thirty (30) claims will proceed to arbitration in the same manner. This process may repeat in successive rounds until all claims have been resolved, settled, or withdrawn.This approach ensures a fair and efficient process for handling large volumes of similar claims while preserving the rights of all parties involved.In the event that the Mass Arbitration involves more than three hundred (500) individual claims, either CravingChef or the user may choose to have the remaining claims resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction, rather than continuing with arbitration.A court with proper authority may enforce this entire Dispute Resolution section and, if needed, stop the mass filing, prosecution, or management of arbitrations, as well as the imposition of arbitration fees. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds these additional procedures unenforceable in your case, your dispute will be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the remaining terms of the CravingChef Terms.

Time Limits

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you acknowledge and agree that any claim arising out of or related to a dispute must be filed within one year from the date the claim first arises. If you fail to do so, the claim will be permanently barred. For clarity, a dispute is considered to have been initiated when the notice, as outlined in the Informal Dispute Resolution section, is sent. If a dispute is brought directly to arbitration or court without complying with this notice requirement, the dispute will be deemed to have started on the date of the arbitration or court filing.

Opt-out Clause

You have the option to opt out of this arbitration agreement. If you wish to do so, you must notify CravingChef within thirty (30) days from the date you first accepted these Terms or any other agreement that includes this arbitration provision. To opt out, send an email to [email protected] with your full name, contact information, and a clear statement of your intent to opt out of the arbitration agreement.Failure to submit the opt-out notice within the required 30-day period will result in the arbitration provision being applicable to any disputes between you and CravingChef. If you opt out successfully, all other sections of this agreement, including those related to dispute resolution and governing law, will still apply.

Severability and Waiver

If CravingChef waives any part of these Terms, it does not imply a waiver of any other provision or its right to enforce strict compliance with the rest of these Terms. If any part of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, that specific provision will be severed, and all other provisions will remain in effect. However, if the Class Action Waiver is determined to be invalid for any dispute, the Arbitration Agreement section will no longer apply, and the dispute will be resolved in the courts located in California, where you and CravingChef agree to submit to personal jurisdiction and venue.In the event that a dispute is heard in court rather than through arbitration, both you and CravingChef agree that: (1) neither party will have the right to a jury trial; (2) the dispute will proceed on an individual basis, not as part of a class action; and (3) neither you nor CravingChef may serve as a class representative or participate in a class, representative, consolidated, or similar proceeding.
