Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Good Problem LLC (“we”, “us”, or “our”), which operates RecipePrinter at recipeprinter.com (the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information and is part of these Terms.

RecipePrinter formats recipes you provide, whether from a link, a photo, a screenshot, pasted text, or a library exported from another recipe app, into printable recipe cards, pages, PDFs, and cookbooks. It is a formatting and printing tool. It is not a recipe publisher or a source of recipes, and it does not provide nutritional, dietary, or medical advice.

Much of the Service is free and does not require an account. Some features are paid: RecipePrinter Pro is a subscription that includes additional print themes, 4×6 card printing, and other recipe-card tools, and unlocking a cookbook is a separate one-time purchase.

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service, or at least 16 if you live in the European Union or the United Kingdom. If you are under 18, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian, and only a parent or guardian may make a purchase. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet these requirements and that you are not prohibited from using it under applicable law.

An account is not required to print. If you create one, you agree to provide an email address you can access, keep your sign-in details confidential, and notify us promptly at recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission. You are responsible for activity under your account, except to the extent it results from our own failure.

You may close your account at any time by contacting us from the email address associated with it. How we handle your data after that is described in the Privacy Policy.

You keep ownership of the content you bring to the Service, including recipes, photos, notes, and the arrangement of any cookbook you build (“Your Content”). We do not claim ownership of Your Content.

You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, copy, transmit, reformat, and display Your Content solely to provide the Service to you, for example to read an import, lay out a card, render a PDF, save a project you ask us to save, and keep backups. This license does not allow us to publish, sell, or share Your Content with other users, or to use it in our marketing. It ends when you delete the content or your account, except for backup copies, which are deleted on their normal schedule.

You are responsible for keeping your own copies of anything important to you, for example by printing it or exporting it as a PDF.

In the United States, a simple list of ingredients is generally not protected by copyright, but the surrounding material usually is, including introductions, written instructions, photographs, and collections of recipes arranged as a book. Other countries draw these lines differently. Nothing in these Terms is legal advice.

You are responsible for having the right to use everything you import and print. By importing content, you confirm that you own it, have permission to use it, or that your use is otherwise lawful, such as printing a copy of a recipe for your own personal use.

Photos from websites

A photo on a recipe website belongs to the person who took it, or to whoever they gave the rights to. Importing the recipe brings the photo along, but it doesn't make it yours to reuse.

That's why a cookbook leaves website photos out until you turn on “Use website photos.” If you're making a book to sell, use your own photos or ones you have permission to use (see “Selling what you make” below).

We don't review what you import, add, or print, and we can't tell whether you have the right to use it. Everything in a card, PDF, or cookbook you make, including recipes, text, and photos, is there because you added it or chose to keep it.

Selling what you make

You may print cards, PDFs, and cookbooks made with the Service for yourself and give copies to family and friends as gifts. You may sell a cookbook only if every recipe, every piece of text, and every photo in it is your own, or you have permission from the person who created it. If anything in it came from someone else without that permission, including a recipe or photo imported from a website, you may not sell it, offer it for sale, or include it in anything you sell, whether as a printed book or as a file.

When a recipe is imported from a website, the printed card includes the source address unless you remove it. We recommend keeping it, as a courtesy to the recipe's author.

You agree not to:

• upload content that is unlawful or infringing, or that you do not have the right to use;
• use the Service to gain unauthorized access to, overload, or interfere with the Service, our providers, or the websites we fetch recipes from;
• circumvent usage limits, entitlement checks, or payment requirements, for example by creating additional accounts, using private or incognito browsing, clearing site data, or switching browsers or devices to obtain more free use (see section 8), or use automated means to import in bulk;
• resell or commercially redistribute access to the Service, or use it to operate a printing service for other people's recipes;
• sell, or offer for sale, a card, PDF, or cookbook made with the Service that contains a recipe, text, or photo that is not your own and that you do not have its creator's permission to use (see section 6);
• scrape or extract the Service's content or themes for use in another product, or use them to train a machine learning model;
• upload malware or anything designed to damage a device or printer; or
• impersonate anyone, or misrepresent the source of a recipe.

Imports and exports are subject to per-visitor limits. The limits are set well above ordinary use. If you reach one, you will be notified, and access resumes after a waiting period. We may adjust these limits over time, and we may restrict use by an account or network that consumes shared resources in a way that affects other users.

Free use, including any free import allowance and the free cookbook preview, is offered once per person, not once per account, browser, or device. Creating or using more than one account, or using private browsing, cleared site data, or other browsers or devices, to obtain more free use than one person is offered is a violation of section 7.

To enforce these limits, we use signals such as account details, browser and device characteristics, and IP address, as described in our Privacy Policy. If we reasonably believe free use is being obtained this way, we may end free access for the accounts, browsers, devices, or networks involved and require a purchase or subscription to continue using the affected features. Paid features you have already bought are not affected unless section 15 applies. If you believe we have made a mistake, contact recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio and we will review it.

The Service offers two kinds of paid features. A cookbook unlock is a one-time purchase that does not renew. RecipePrinter Pro is a subscription, billed monthly or annually until you cancel.

• Cookbook purchases. You may preview a cookbook with up to 10 recipes without purchasing it. A cookbook purchase unlocks PDF export and printing and lets you add more than 10 recipes to the specific project it was purchased for. It is not an account-wide entitlement, so each additional cookbook is a separate purchase. This is shown at the point of sale.
• RecipePrinter Pro. Pro applies to your whole account and includes every print theme, 4×6 card printing, prints without RecipePrinter branding, and the other recipe-card tools for as long as the subscription is active. Pro does not include cookbook unlocks, which remain a separate one-time purchase.
• Billing and renewal. A Pro subscription renews automatically at the end of each monthly or annual billing period until you cancel. Canceling stops future renewals, and access continues through the end of the period you have already paid for. If a renewal payment fails, we may suspend Pro access until it is resolved.
• Managing or canceling Pro. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time from your account menu, which opens our payment processor's billing page.
• Prices and taxes. Prices are in US dollars and are shown before you pay. Applicable taxes are added at checkout. We may change prices at any time, but a change will not affect a purchase you have already made or a billing period you have already paid for.
• Payment processing. Payments are processed by Stripe through RevenueCat. We do not receive or store your card details. Their terms apply to the payment itself.
• Access to purchases. A cookbook unlock is tied to the account or browser used to buy it, so sign in before purchasing if you want it available on other devices. RecipePrinter Pro requires a signed-in account and is available on any device where you sign in. If a purchase does not appear where you expect, contact recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio with the email address you paid from and we will help.
• What a cookbook export is. A cookbook export is a digital PDF file that you generate and print yourself. We do not print, bind, or ship anything, and we have no relationship with any printer or print shop you choose to use.
• Earlier theme purchases. If you bought an individual print theme before RecipePrinter Pro was introduced, you keep access to it.

If a paid feature does not work as described, contact us at recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio within 14 days of the purchase or most recent renewal, and we will issue a refund.

Because cookbook features can be unlocked and used immediately, we may decline a refund request where the unlocked features or generated file worked as described. Canceling RecipePrinter Pro stops future charges but does not by itself refund a billing period you have already paid for.

Nothing in this section limits any refund or cancellation right you have under the consumer protection laws where you live, including the statutory right of withdrawal for consumers in the European Union and the United Kingdom. Where that right applies, requesting immediate delivery of a digital file may end it, and we will tell you so at the point of sale.

RecipePrinter reads recipes automatically, and automated reading can make mistakes. An ingredient may be left out, a quantity misread, a temperature or time transcribed incorrectly, or a step placed out of order.

We do not warrant that an imported recipe is complete, correct, or safe to prepare, and we are not the author of any recipe you import. You are responsible for how you prepare any recipe.

When you import a recipe from a link, we fetch that page in order to read it. Those websites are operated by third parties, and their content, terms, and privacy practices are their own. A link or a successful import is not an endorsement of, or a partnership with, that website.

Some websites block automated access or do not contain a recipe we can read. When that happens, we will let you know, and you can paste the recipe text or upload a screenshot instead.

Signing in to CookPilot to import a recipe library is optional and is governed by CookPilot's own terms. Google, Apple, Stripe, and RevenueCat each have their own terms for the services they provide.

The Service, including its software, page and card themes, layouts, artwork, name, and design, belongs to Good Problem LLC and is protected by copyright and other laws. You may use the Service to make and print your own recipe cards, cookbooks, and PDFs. Those outputs are yours to print, keep, give as gifts, and, where section 6 allows, sell. Our themes, layouts, and artwork appear in those outputs under that license only.

You may not copy, adapt, or redistribute the themes or the software, or present them as your own. If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without any obligation to you.

We may add, change, or remove features, and the Service may be unavailable at times for maintenance or for reasons outside our control. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.

If we discontinue the Service, we will give reasonable notice on the site so that you can export your saved projects first. If we discontinue a paid feature you bought within the previous twelve months and can no longer provide it, we will refund it.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when they last changed. By continuing to use the Service after an update, you accept the updated Terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the Service, and you may ask us to close your account.

You may stop using the Service at any time, and you may ask us to close your account by contacting recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio.

We may suspend or close an account that violates these Terms, particularly section 7, or where required by law. We may also block access to the Service from browsers, devices, or networks associated with that violation, and decline to open new accounts for someone whose access we have restricted or closed. Unless the violation is serious or we are legally prevented from doing so, we will tell you the reason and give you an opportunity to resolve it and to export your projects. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including the license to Your Content as it applies to copies already made, the disclaimers, the limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law.

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, that an import will succeed for any particular website, that an extracted recipe will be complete or accurate, that printed output will match the on-screen preview on every printer, or that any defect will be corrected.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any right you have under mandatory consumer protection law, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither Good Problem LLC nor its owners, employees, or contractors will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or content, or the cost of substitute services, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service, whether based on contract, tort, or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose, or fifty US dollars.

These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited. If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction that restricts these limitations, they apply only to the extent permitted there.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Good Problem LLC from any claim brought against us arising from content you uploaded, printed, sold, or distributed using the Service, including a copyright claim over a recipe or photograph you did not have the right to use, such as a photo from another website, together with the reasonable costs of that claim. This does not apply to a claim caused by our own breach of these Terms, or to the extent the law where you live does not permit it. We will notify you promptly of any such claim and will not settle it without your consent.

If you believe material on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio that includes:

• your name, address, and contact details;
• identification of the copyrighted work, and of the material you believe infringes it, with enough detail for us to locate it;
• a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
• a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf; and
• your physical or electronic signature.

We respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act by removing or disabling access to the material, and we terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. If your material was removed and you believe this was a mistake, you may send a counter-notice to the same address.

Most content on the Service is private to the person who uploaded it and is not published by us.

Informal resolution

Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio with a description of the issue and the resolution you are seeking, and to allow us 30 days to resolve it informally.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Venue

Any dispute that is not resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Marion County, Indiana, and you and Good Problem LLC each consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction whose law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts and the protection of your local consumer law, those rights are not affected by this section.

• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and replace any prior agreements or communications.
• Severability. If any part of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
• Assignment. You may not transfer these Terms without our consent. We may transfer them as part of a sale or reorganization of our business, with notice to you.
• No third-party beneficiaries. No one other than you and us has any right to enforce these Terms.
• Events beyond our control. Neither party is liable for a failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control.

Questions and requests can be sent to recipeprinter@goodproblem.studio. We aim to respond within a few business days, and always within any deadline the law sets for the type of request.

Good Problem LLC operates from Indiana, United States. A postal address for formal notices is available on request at the address above.
