1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how MaxKitchen Toolkit handles information when you use the application.
MaxKitchen Toolkit is designed as a kitchen utility application that provides features such as cooking timers, measurement conversion, serving calculations, personal recipes, shopping lists, food expiry tracking, cooking cost calculations, and kitchen notes.
2. Information We Collect
MaxKitchen Toolkit is designed so that its core features can operate primarily on your device.
The app may allow you to create and store information such as:
- Personal recipes
- Recipe ingredients and preparation steps
- Shopping list items
- Food expiry information
- Kitchen notes
- Cooking timer information
- Meal cost calculations
- Application preferences and settings
- Optional recipe images selected by you
This information is used to provide the app’s functionality.
3. Local Data Storage
User-created information used by the core features of MaxKitchen Toolkit is stored locally on your device.
This may include:
- Saved recipes
- Shopping lists
- Expiry-tracking records
- Kitchen notes
- Timer information
- App settings
- Recipe images selected from your device
The app does not require you to create an online account to use its core features.
4. Personal Information
MaxKitchen Toolkit does not require users to provide personal information such as:
- Name
- Home address
- Phone number
- Date of birth
- Government identification
- Payment information
The app does not include user registration or an online account system for its core functionality.
5. Data Sharing
MaxKitchen Toolkit does not sell user-created app data.
The core locally stored information described above is not intentionally shared with advertisers or data brokers by the app.
If future versions of the app introduce third-party services that collect or process user data, this Privacy Policy and the app’s Google Play Data Safety information will be updated accordingly.
6. Internet and Third-Party Content
Some versions of the application may contain visual assets or other content obtained from properly licensed external sources and bundled with the application.
Where those assets are stored directly inside the app, they do not require users to provide personal information in order to be displayed.
If any future version introduces online services, analytics, advertising, cloud storage, or other third-party SDKs, this Privacy Policy will be updated to accurately describe their data practices.
7. Notifications
MaxKitchen Toolkit may request notification permission so that features such as cooking timers and food expiry reminders can alert you.
Notification permission is used only for app functionality.
You may disable notification access at any time through your device settings.
8. Device Permissions
Depending on your Android version and the features you use, the app may request permissions such as:
Notifications
Used to show cooking timer and food expiry reminders.
Photo or Media Access
If applicable, used when you choose an image for one of your recipes.
The app does not require access to unrelated photos for normal use.
The app does not require access to your contacts, SMS messages, microphone, or precise location for its core kitchen features.
9. Recipe Images
If you choose a recipe image from your device, the app may store a local reference to that image so it can be displayed with your saved recipe.
The app does not intentionally upload your selected recipe images to a remote server as part of its core functionality.
10. Data Security
Reasonable measures are used to keep app data within the application’s local storage environment.
However, no electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should also protect their devices using appropriate device security features such as screen locks and operating system updates.
11. Data Retention
Locally stored information remains on your device until:
- You delete an individual record from the app
- You use an available delete or clear-data feature
- You clear the app’s storage through Android settings
- You uninstall the application
The app does not maintain an online user account for its core functionality.
12. Data Deletion
You can delete user-created information directly from the relevant areas of MaxKitchen Toolkit.
Where available, the app may also provide an option to remove locally stored app data.
You may additionally remove local app data using your Android device settings or by uninstalling the application.
Because the app does not require an online account for its core functionality, there is no separate online account deletion process.
13. Children’s Privacy
MaxKitchen Toolkit is a general kitchen utility application.
The app is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children.
If the app’s target audience or functionality changes in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated as necessary.
14. Google Play Data Safety
The information declared in the Google Play Data Safety section should remain consistent with the actual behavior of MaxKitchen Toolkit and this Privacy Policy.
Any data collection, use, or sharing practices added in future versions should be accurately disclosed in both the Privacy Policy and Google Play Console.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated when the application, its features, legal requirements, or data practices change.
Any updated version will include a revised Last Updated date.
Users are encouraged to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
