Terms of service

These terms are an agreement between you and Tiny Hut Labs LLC, a Colorado company ("we", "us"), which makes Dinnerary. They cover the Dinnerary app and website. By creating an account or using Dinnerary, you agree to them. Our privacy policy explains what we collect and how we use it.

1. What Dinnerary is

Dinnerary helps a household plan its dinners, keep its recipes, and build a grocery list from the week's plan. It's an invite-only beta: it's still being built, it's free while it's a beta, and it will change. Features may be added, changed or taken away, and the app may sometimes be unavailable. If we ever charge for Dinnerary, we'll tell you first, and you can download your data before you decide.

2. Who can use it

• You need an invite to create an account.
• You must be at least 13. If you're under 18, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.
• Dinnerary is offered in the United States only.

3. Your account and your household

• Keep your password to yourself, and tell us if you think someone else has used your account. You're responsible for what happens in your account.
• Give your real name or a name your household will recognize, and an email address you can read (it's how a password reset reaches you).
• A household shares one cookbook, weekly plan and grocery list. Everyone in it can see and change them. The household's owner can invite people and remove them. When the last person leaves, the household and everything in it are deleted.

4. What you put in Dinnerary

• It stays yours. Recipes you write, photos you take, notes, ratings and lists belong to you (or whoever you got them from).
• What you let us do with it: store it, show it to the people in your household, and work with it to run Dinnerary: read a recipe from your photo or pasted text, build your grocery list, plan your week, and show a recipe to the people you share a link with. This permission ends when you delete it or your account (backups expire within about two months).
• Only add what you're allowed to. Don't upload photos or text you don't have the right to use.
• Recipes from websites: when you add a recipe from a link, it's saved for your household's own cooking. Shared links to those recipes show only their name and the original page, so the original site gets the visit.
• Your copy: More → Download my data gives you a file with everything your household keeps.

5. The starter library

Dinnerary comes with a library of dinner ideas and recipes we wrote or collected. You're welcome to cook from them, save them, change your household's version and share a recipe with a friend. Please don't copy the library in bulk or republish it.

6. Recipes, nutrition and food safety

• Check before you cook. Some recipes are read from photos and pasted text by an AI (Anthropic's Claude), and some library recipes are drafts not yet tested in a home kitchen; Dinnerary labels them. Any recipe can have a mistake in an amount, a time or a temperature.
• Allergies and diets are yours to check. Read the ingredients, and the labels of what you buy, if anyone you cook for has an allergy or a medical diet. Diet swaps and filters are suggestions.
• Nutrition numbers are estimates, worked out from public USDA data. They aren't medical or dietary advice.
• Cook safely: cook meat, poultry, fish and eggs to safe temperatures, and follow your own judgment in the kitchen.

7. Grocery lists and store carts

• Grocery lists are worked out from your recipes. Amounts are rounded to what stores sell, and things you usually have at home may be left off. Look the list over before you shop.
• King Soopers (Kroger), if you connect it:
  • Dinnerary adds the items you choose to your King Soopers cart. You review the cart and check out in King Soopers' own app or website. Dinnerary can't see your cart, remove anything from it, or buy anything.
  • Product names, pictures, prices and stock come from Kroger and may change. Prices are set by the store, not by us.
  • Items bought by weight are added as one package; check the amount in your cart.
  • Your use of King Soopers is covered by Kroger's own terms and privacy policy.
  • King Soopers and Kroger are trademarks of The Kroger Co. Dinnerary isn't made, sponsored or endorsed by Kroger.
• Walmart:
  • Dinnerary opens Walmart's own add-to-cart link with the products you chose. Walmart's app or site puts them in your cart, and you review the cart and check out with Walmart. Dinnerary can't see your cart, remove anything from it, or buy anything.
  • Product names, pictures and prices come from Walmart and may change. Prices are Walmart.com's; your store's can differ, and Walmart sets them, not us.
  • Items bought by weight are added as one package; check the amount in your cart.
  • Tiny Hut Labs is a Walmart affiliate and earns a commission on what you buy through the link. You pay the same.
  • Your use of Walmart is covered by Walmart's own terms and privacy policy.
  • Walmart and Walmart.com are trademarks of Walmart Inc. or its affiliates. Dinnerary isn't made, sponsored or endorsed by Walmart.
• Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh:
  • Dinnerary opens Amazon's own shopping-list page with the foods you send. Amazon picks the store's products (or uses the ones you chose), and you review them, add them to your cart and check out with Amazon. Dinnerary can't see your cart, remove anything from it, or buy anything.
  • Amazon's picks, sizes, prices and stock are Amazon's and may change, or a food may not be found. Most lines go in the cart one at a time, so check the counts and the cart before you check out.
  • When the Send screen says so, Tiny Hut Labs earns a commission from Amazon on what you buy through the link. You pay the same.
  • Your use of Whole Foods, Amazon Fresh and Amazon is covered by Amazon's own terms and privacy notice.
  • Whole Foods Market and Amazon are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. Dinnerary isn't made, sponsored or endorsed by Amazon or Whole Foods.
• Other stores get a copy of the list to paste or share; Dinnerary doesn't connect to their carts.

8. Sharing a recipe

A recipe you share by link can be opened by anyone who has the link, for 30 days (or until you stop sharing it). Only share recipes you're happy for others to see. Someone you share with can save a copy to their own household's cookbook.

9. Using Dinnerary fairly

Please don't:

• use Dinnerary to break the law, or to store or share anything illegal, hateful or harmful;
• try to get into someone else's account or household, or into parts of Dinnerary you aren't meant to reach;
• copy Dinnerary's data in bulk, with scripts or otherwise, or flood it with requests;
• interfere with how Dinnerary runs, or with someone else's use of it;
• copy, sell or resell Dinnerary, or build a competing product from it;
• use the King Soopers connection for anything but your own household's shopping.

10. Feedback

We'd love to hear what you think. If you send an idea or a suggestion, we may use it to improve Dinnerary, without owing you anything for it.

11. Ending things

• You can stop any time: More → Delete my account. Download your data first if you want a copy.
• We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts other people or Dinnerary at risk. We may also end the beta or Dinnerary itself. Unless there's a good reason not to (a risk to others, or the law), we'll tell you ahead of time, with a chance to download your data.

12. Our responsibility

• Dinnerary is provided as is and as available, without promises that it will always work, be free of mistakes, or suit your needs, to the extent the law allows.
• We aren't responsible for indirect losses, such as spoiled food, a missed dinner, a grocery bill, or lost profits, to the extent the law allows.
• If we are responsible for something, our total responsibility is limited to the greater of what you paid us in the past 12 months or $50.
• Some places don't allow these limits, so some of them may not apply to you.

13. If something you do causes a claim

If someone makes a claim against us because of what you put in Dinnerary or how you used it against these terms, you'll cover our reasonable costs of dealing with it, to the extent the law allows.

14. The law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of Colorado. If there's a problem, please email us first; most things can be sorted out that way. If not, disputes go to the state or federal courts in the City and County of Denver, Colorado, except that either of us may use small claims court.

15. Changes to these terms

If we change these terms, we'll update the date at the top. If a change matters, we'll tell you in the app before it takes effect. Using Dinnerary after that means you accept the new terms. If you don't, you can delete your account.
