LinkDish helps you turn recipe links into a clean, readable recipe format. This page explains what information the app handles and how it is used.
Information LinkDish handles
- Recipe links that you paste into the app so the service can extract recipe information.
- Recipe content returned from the extraction service, such as titles, ingredients, steps, and timing.
- Recipes you choose to save locally on your device for later viewing.
- An app-generated RevenueCat app user ID used to load purchase options, restore purchases, and verify LinkDish paid plan entitlement status.
- Purchase and subscription status returned by LinkDish checkout providers, such as whether a LinkDish Plus or Family entitlement is active.
- If you sign in for Family household sharing, your account email, login code/session records, household membership, and household invite records.
- Browser storage used by the LinkDish web app to keep the app working between visits.
How the information is used
- Submitted links are sent to LinkDish's backend service to fetch and extract recipe details.
- Saved recipes are stored on your device so you can reopen them later inside the app.
- The app-generated purchase ID is sent to RevenueCat and to LinkDish's backend service so LinkDish can check entitlement status and apply the correct import and extraction limits.
- Basic server-side operational logs may be used to monitor reliability, prevent abuse, and debug failures.
- Account and household records are used only to sign you in, manage Family household membership, send login or invite emails, and apply the shared Family quota.
- Web app browser storage is used to keep local app state and paid saved recipe access available in your browser.
Purchases
LinkDish uses checkout providers to manage purchase offerings, purchases, restores, and entitlement checks. LinkDish does not receive your full payment card number or payment account credentials.
What LinkDish does not do
- No account is required for the first 3 free recipe imports.
- Sign in is required to buy or restore a paid plan and for Family household sharing.
- LinkDish does not sell your personal information.
- LinkDish does not include third-party advertising in the current app.
Data storage
Personal recipes you save after upgrading are stored locally on your device or in your browser. Extracted recipe data may also pass through LinkDish's backend service in order to produce results and keep the service running reliably. The RevenueCat app user ID is stored on your device and may be stored by LinkDish's backend for quota checks and by RevenueCat for purchase and entitlement management. Account sessions are stored on your device or in your browser. Server-side account, session, invite, and household records are stored by LinkDish's backend.
Your choices
You can stop using the extraction service at any time by not submitting links, and paid users can remove saved recipes from inside the app whenever they want.
You can manage, cancel, or restore subscriptions through the checkout or store account used to make the purchase.
If you create a LinkDish account, you can delete it from Account in the app. Account deletion removes server-side account and household records, but it does not cancel paid subscriptions. Local saved recipes remain on your device or in your browser storage.
If you cannot access the app and need help with deletion of data retained by LinkDish, email support@linkdish.ca.
