These Terms & Conditions govern your access to and use of Recipe Room, including our app, website, accounts, profiles, photos, film simulation recipes, camera settings, collections, community features, and any paid recipe features we make available.
By creating an account, uploading content, buying or selling recipes, or otherwise using Recipe Room, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use Recipe Room.
About Recipe Room
Recipe Room is a photography platform for sharing photos, film simulation recipes, camera settings, and related creative work. Recipes may include settings, sample images, descriptions, tags, collections, and community discussion.
Recipe Room is currently operated from the United Kingdom by the person or legal entity responsible for making Recipe Room available. If Recipe Room is operated through a registered company in the future, that company is expected to be registered in the United Kingdom and these Terms will be updated with the relevant legal operator details.
Accounts
- You must provide accurate account information and keep it up to date.
- You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your login credentials secure.
- You may not impersonate another person, misrepresent your identity, or create accounts to evade enforcement, restrictions, suspension, termination, or refusal of service.
- You must be at least 13 years old, or older if the law where you live requires a higher minimum age.
- By onboarding, registering, or continuing to use Recipe Room, you agree to provide personal information needed to operate the service and agree that we may collect, use, store, and share it as described in our Privacy Policy.
- Recipe Room may review account, profile, content, activity, support, purchase, sale, receipt, refund, payout, moderation, report, and relevant message records where needed to operate the service, investigate disputes, prevent abuse, protect users, respond to safety issues, and enforce these Terms.
Your content
You keep ownership of the photos, recipes, settings, captions, comments, and other content you upload or create on Recipe Room. Recipe Room does not own your personal information or your original content.
You grant Recipe Room a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, resize, display, publish, distribute, promote, moderate, and otherwise use your content as needed to operate, improve, protect, and promote Recipe Room. This license includes the right to make your public content available to other users and visitors.
You are responsible for your content. You must have all rights and permissions needed to upload, publish, sell, license, or share it.
Recipe originality and copying
Recipe Room depends on trust between photographers. You agree not to copy, recreate, fork, scrape, repackage, republish, or sell another user's community recipe, forked recipe, purchased recipe, photos, settings, descriptions, or substantially similar recipe as your own.
Recipe Room may allow community recipes and forked recipes to be created and shared where those features are available. Community recipes and forked recipes may not be sold by a creator as paid transactional goods unless Recipe Room expressly allows it in writing or through a specific product feature.
If a user reports that a recipe has been copied, Recipe Room may investigate. We may remove content, restrict distribution, pause sales, withhold payouts, reduce visibility, suspend access, or take other action if we believe the content violates these Terms, infringes rights, harms the community, or creates legal or platform risk.
Selling a recipe that you copied from a purchased recipe, community recipe, forked recipe, or another creator's work is a breach of these Terms. We are not required to disclose all evidence, investigation details, or enforcement reasons, especially where doing so could affect user safety, privacy, fraud prevention, or platform integrity.
Community rules
You agree not to use Recipe Room to:
- Harass, threaten, abuse, shame, bully, or target another person.
- Post unlawful, hateful, sexually exploitative, violent, defamatory, invasive, or otherwise harmful content, including any content that exploits, endangers, or sexualises a child.
- Upload content that infringes copyrights, trademarks, privacy rights, publicity rights, or other rights.
- Spam, manipulate engagement, scrape content, automate abusive activity, or interfere with the service.
- Upload malware, attempt unauthorized access, probe security systems, or disrupt Recipe Room.
- Mislead users about recipe ownership, paid recipe access, camera settings, affiliations, endorsements, or identity.
- Use Recipe Room for illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful activity.
Moderation and account enforcement
We may review, remove, hide, demote, limit, or restrict content at any time. We may also suspend, restrict, or terminate accounts at any time if we believe conduct violates these Terms, harms users, creates legal risk, creates security risk, affects platform integrity, or is otherwise inappropriate for Recipe Room.
Recipe Room may ban, suspend, or restrict an account for any reason permitted by law. We are not required to give advance notice or provide a detailed reason for enforcement action.
Recipe Room may refuse service, deny access, block account creation, or prevent continued use by specific users where we believe they have acted fraudulently, abusively, unlawfully, deceptively, or in a way that creates safety, security, legal, payment, creator, buyer, or platform-integrity risk. This applies even if the user attempts to return through a new account, different login method, different device, or different identity.
Recipe Room may provide tools to report content, report users, block users, hide content, or limit interactions. You agree not to misuse reporting, appeals, blocking, or moderation tools.
Hiding content, showing fewer similar posts, muting an account, and blocking an account are personal controls that change your own experience. These controls generally do not create a moderation report. Blocking may stop accounts from following, viewing, or interacting with each other where the relevant feature is available.
Reports must be made honestly and in good faith. We generally do not disclose a reporter's identity to the reported user, but we may disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary for safety, fraud prevention, security, or legal proceedings. We may be unable to disclose the detailed outcome of a report because of privacy, safety, legal, or security obligations.
If a report, safety issue, abuse issue, illegal activity, dispute, or suspected Terms violation involves private chats or direct messages, Recipe Room may review relevant message context as part of the investigation and enforcement process.
Depending on the circumstances, Recipe Room may find no violation, request a correction, remove or restore content, issue a warning, temporarily restrict an account, restrict an account indefinitely while a concern is reviewed, or permanently ban an account. A warning will normally be considered before restriction or a permanent ban, but severe abuse, safety risks, fraud, repeated violations, legal requirements, or attempts to evade enforcement may result in immediate action.
Where reasonably appropriate, an affected user will receive a case reference, the action taken, the reason for the action, its duration where applicable, and any available appeal instructions. We may limit the information provided where disclosure could create a safety, privacy, legal, fraud, or security risk.
Only an eligible permanent ban may be appealed. An eligible permanently banned account may submit one appeal. Recipe Room may accept the appeal and restore access, partially accept it and replace the permanent ban with an indefinite restriction, or reject it and maintain the permanent ban. Temporary and indefinite restrictions cannot be appealed. Once a permanent-ban appeal has been decided, the appeal decision is final and no further appeal is available. Recipe Room reserves the right to maintain its original decision where the appeal does not provide sufficient reason to change it. This does not limit any complaint, appeal, or other rights you may have under applicable law.
Paid recipes, purchases, and sales
If Recipe Room enables paid recipe sales, the following terms apply:
- A purchase gives the buyer personal, non-exclusive access to the purchased recipe. It does not transfer ownership of the creator's content unless expressly stated.
- Paid recipe purchases are sales of digital content. Once a purchased recipe, settings, sample images, description, collection, or related materials are made available to you, the digital content has been delivered.
- Except where required by law or by an applicable app store or payment provider policy, paid recipe purchases are final and non-refundable after delivery. This is because recipe settings and related materials can be viewed, copied, written down, saved, or used in a camera after access is granted, even if a buyer later says they will not use them.
- Recipe Room may make refund exceptions on a case-by-case basis at our discretion, but we are not required to do so unless required by law or by an applicable app store or payment provider policy.
- Buyers may not resell, share, publish, copy, leak, or repackage purchased recipes or associated photos and settings.
- Creators may only sell recipes and photos they own or have permission to sell. Community recipes, forked recipes, copied recipes, or substantially similar versions of another user's recipe may not be sold as paid transactional goods unless Recipe Room expressly allows it.
- Payments, refunds, chargebacks, platform fees, app store fees, processing costs, taxes, and payout timing may be handled by payment processors, payout providers, app stores, tax providers, or other service providers. If purchases are made through Apple, Google, or another app store, the app store's payment, refund, tax, subscription, and account rules may also apply.
- Recipe Room generally does not need or receive full payment card numbers, CVV codes, bank login credentials, or buyer home or billing addresses for normal recipe purchases. Payment processors, payout providers, app stores, and tax providers may handle sensitive payment, billing, tax, identity, and payout information under their own terms and privacy policies.
- Recipe Room may receive and review limited payment, receipt, refund, chargeback, access, tax, payout, eligibility, verification, country, currency, compliance, or transaction metadata where needed to operate paid recipe features, preserve buyer access, protect creators and buyers, handle disputes, and enforce these Terms.
- Recipe Room may quote recipe prices and related commercial pricing values in US dollars unless we expressly state otherwise. Recipe Room may use British pounds sterling as its operating, settlement, or accounting base currency.
- Transactions may be displayed, processed, paid, settled, paid out, recorded, or reconciled in other currencies depending on the buyer's location, creator's location, app store, payment provider, payout provider, bank, tax rules, and Recipe Room's internal accounting requirements.
- Where conversion is needed, currency conversion may occur at checkout, payment processing, payout, settlement, reconciliation, accounting, or another stage using exchange rates, conversion rules, app store pricing tiers, payment provider rates, payout provider rates, admin provider rates, bank rates, accounting rates, or other applicable rates.
- Because exchange rates and provider pricing rules can change, local prices, proceeds, fees, taxes, payout amounts, and accounting values may differ from the US dollar quoted amount and may change from day to day or transaction to transaction.
- Recipe Room's transaction economics may include a platform fee, app store fee where applicable, Recipe Room commission, payment processing costs, taxes, currency costs, or other charges shown or described in our pricing structure. We do not charge separate buyer fees or seller fees unless our pricing structure expressly says otherwise.
- Recipe Room commission and platform-related fee calculations may be based on the US dollar quoted sale value before platform fees, app store fees, payment processing costs, taxes, currency costs, or similar deductions, unless our pricing structure states otherwise.
- Recipe Room does not necessarily charge VAT on paid recipe transactions. If VAT or a similar sales tax is charged, it will be calculated on the local taxable transaction amount after currency conversion, unless applicable law or the relevant app store, payment provider, payout provider, tax provider, or other service provider requires a different method.
- Taxes and currency costs are not included in recipe sale value. Sales are treated as excluding taxes, currency conversion costs, and similar jurisdiction-specific charges unless we expressly state otherwise. If Recipe Room starts charging VAT or materially changes how VAT or similar sales taxes are handled, we will notify affected customers by email, in the app, at checkout, or by another reasonable method.
- Fees, commissions, taxes, currency costs, payout calculations, payout thresholds, payout timing, supported payout countries, and pricing structures may vary based on jurisdiction, country, region, currency, tax treatment, provider requirements, or where the sale is made or processed, and may change over time. If we materially change Recipe Room platform fees, commission rates, or other fees charged by Recipe Room, we will notify affected customers before the change takes effect where required by law or by another reasonable method.
- Creators may need to complete payout, tax, identity, anti-fraud, or other onboarding checks before receiving payouts.
- We may delay, withhold, reverse, or cancel payouts where needed for refunds, chargebacks, suspected copying, fraud, legal compliance, tax, sanctions screening, disputes, or violations of these Terms.
- We may retain purchase records, sale records, receipts, order identifiers, refund records, tax records, payout records, and related metadata as proof of purchase and for legal, accounting, tax, safety, and dispute purposes.
- If a recipe has been sold or purchased, the recipe title, recipe settings, associated photos, descriptions, and other materials needed to prove the transaction and preserve buyer access may remain even if the creator later deletes their account.
Privacy and deletion
Our Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, how we share it, and how account deletion works.
When you request account deletion, Recipe Room will delete or disable your account and remove personal information from active systems where reasonably possible. Deletion does not apply to information we must or reasonably need to keep for completed purchases and sales, receipts, buyer access, tax, accounting, refunds, chargebacks, fraud prevention, disputes, legal obligations, security, moderation, backups, and enforcement of these Terms.
Recipe Room intellectual property
Recipe Room, our name, logos, branding, designs, software, interfaces, systems, and non-user content are owned by Recipe Room or our licensors. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, scrape, or use them except as allowed by these Terms or with our written permission.
Copyright and takedown requests
If you believe content on Recipe Room infringes your copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights, contact us at support@reciperoom.io with enough information for us to identify the content and review your request.
We may remove or restrict allegedly infringing content, disable access, notify the user who posted it, request more information, restore content where appropriate, or terminate repeat infringers where required or permitted by law.
Feedback
You can send product ideas, bug reports, customer experience suggestions, and other feedback through our official channels, including feedback.reciperoom.io, feedback@reciperoom.io, support email, in-app prompts, surveys, or other channels we identify as official.
Feedback is voluntary and is not confidential unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing. By sending feedback through any official Recipe Room channel, you grant Recipe Room a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, publish, distribute, implement, commercialise, and otherwise act on that feedback for any purpose, without restriction, payment, credit, approval, or other obligation to you.
This does not transfer ownership of your personal information or your original content. It means Recipe Room can decide whether and how to use feedback, including by building, improving, changing, or removing features based on it, without owing compensation or recognition.
Third-party services
Recipe Room may rely on third-party providers for authentication, hosting, databases, storage, email, analytics, payments, app stores, customer support, and other services. Third-party services may have their own terms and privacy policies.
Disclaimers
Recipe Room is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or available at all times.
Photography results vary. Recipe settings, film simulations, sample images, and creative recommendations may produce different results depending on camera model, firmware, lens, lighting, exposure, white balance, editing, display, and user technique.
Recipe Room is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Fujifilm unless we expressly say otherwise. Camera model names, film simulation names, app store names, payment provider names, and other third-party names belong to their respective owners.
Limitation of liability

Ending your use of Recipe Room
You may stop using Recipe Room at any time. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access at any time as described in these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will continue to apply, including content licenses for existing public or sold content, purchase records, ownership provisions, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnity, and enforcement provisions.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the date above and may provide notice in the app, by email, or by another reasonable method. Continuing to use Recipe Room after changes become effective means you accept the updated Terms.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, unless mandatory consumer protection law gives you rights that cannot be waived.
