Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 17, 2026

Tartine is an app that turns recipes you share from social networks or the web into readable recipes. This policy explains what data we process, why, and your rights, in line with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the GDPR.

1. Controller

Farid Rehila, Nyon (VD), Suisse / Schweiz / Switzerland. Contact: hello@matartine.com

2. Data we process

  • Account: an anonymous account ID created automatically on first launch. You can later link that account to an email address, to your Apple account or to your Google account, so you can find your cookbook again on another device: we then store your email address. With "Sign in with Apple" you can choose to hide your address; in that case we only receive a relay address provided by Apple. We never ask for your name.
  • Content you share: the links (reels, videos, web pages) you send to Tartine, and the recipes, favorites and grocery lists linked to your account.
  • Notifications: your device's push token and the app language, if you turn notifications on.
  • App usage: pseudonymous usage events (screens viewed, recipes imported, app version, device model, approximate country) to understand and improve the app.
  • Diagnostics: technical crash reports.
  • Purchases: your subscription status. Payment is handled by Apple; we never access your payment details.

We don't sell your data, show ads, or track you across other apps or websites.

3. Why we use it

  • To provide the service: fetch the public content of the shared link, extract the recipe, save it to your cookbook and notify you when it's ready (performance of contract).
  • To create your account and, if you ask for it, link it to your email address, to Apple or to Google so we can recognize you on another device — including sending the six-digit sign-in code (performance of contract).
  • To improve the app and fix bugs (legitimate interest).
  • To send notifications (your consent, which you can withdraw in your device settings).
  • To manage your subscription (performance of contract).

4. Service providers

  • Cloudflare: API hosting, database, image storage, email delivery (sign-in code).
  • Bright Data: fetching the public content (caption, video, thumbnail) of the link you share.
  • Google (Gemini API): analyzing that public content to extract the recipe.
  • Expo and Apple: delivering notifications.
  • PostHog (EU hosting): usage analytics.
  • Sentry: crash reports.
  • RevenueCat and Apple: subscription management.

If you choose to sign in with Apple or Google, those companies act as independent identity providers rather than as our processors: they pass us your email address (or, for Apple, a relay address) and know that you use Tartine. Their own privacy policies apply to that processing.

Some providers are located outside Switzerland and the EU, notably in the United States. These transfers rely on appropriate safeguards (Swiss-U.S. / EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses).

5. Retention

We keep your data as long as your account exists. When you delete your account, the data linked to it (cookbook, favorites, grocery lists, email address, push tokens) is deleted within 30 days. Recipes extracted from public content may be kept without any link to your account, so already-analyzed content isn't processed again. Usage analytics are kept for up to 24 months.

6. Your rights

You can request access, correction, deletion or portability of your data, or object to certain processing. You can delete your data directly in the app (Settings) or email us at hello@matartine.com. You can also lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or your local data protection authority.

7. Children

Tartine is not directed at children under 13.

8. Changes

We may update this policy. The last update date is shown at the top of this page.
