Each app has its own policy and its own effective date.
Assistant Chef
Assistant Chef support →Effective date: October 12, 2026
Assistant Chef is made by fakewaffle, llc, a Utah company (“we”). It helps you keep recipes, pantry items, groceries and related kitchen information. This policy describes how the app handles your data.
Data the app handles
The app stores the recipes, pantry items, grocery lists, images, files, notes and preferences you choose to add. You can also use the camera or your photo library to import recipe or pantry information.
iCloud sync (CloudKit)
If iCloud sync is turned on, this information is stored in your own private iCloud account through Apple’s CloudKit so it syncs across your devices. Apple stores and manages that data under its privacy policy.
Processing and service providers
When you use a feature that processes an import, generates suggestions, searches the web or connects a retailer, the content that feature needs is sent to the service that provides it. This can include:
- OpenAI, for AI processing of imports and suggestions
- Search providers, for recipe search requests
- A retailer you authorize, when you connect one
What is sent depends on the feature you choose. Please do not submit information you do not want processed. These providers may keep data under their own policies.
Purchases
Apple processes purchases and subscriptions through the App Store. We do not receive your payment details.
Device authentication and operational records
To protect access to these features, the app registers your device using Apple’s device authentication. That registration expires after 90 days. We also keep limited operational records, such as feature errors, request identifiers and usage measurements, for reliability, security and abuse prevention.
Your choices and deletion
You control the content stored in the app and can delete it in the app. You can turn off camera, photos, notifications and iCloud access in Settings. Deleting the app does not necessarily remove data held in iCloud; manage that through your Apple Account settings.
What we do not do
- No personal data sold to anyone
- No data shared with third parties for tracking or advertising
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update it here and change the effective date above.

This data is not linked to your identity, and we do not intentionally collect personally identifiable information. See Sentry’s privacy policy for more.
