1. Who and what
These terms are between you and Worth Spreading (eenmanszaak, Netherlands, KVK number — arriving 10 July), the maker of Make It Again — a household cookbook app that captures recipes with AI assistance, cooks them hands-free, plans the week, and hosts a small community cookbook. Contact: support@worthspreading.com.
2. Eligibility & account
You must be 16 or older. The app works without registration (an anonymous account is created on first launch); a passwordless email sign-in exists to subscribe, join a household, or add a device. You’re responsible for what you store, and for having the right to store it — most home recipes are fine; whole scans of a copyrighted cookbook are not (see §8 and the privacy policy).
3. Your recipes
Your recipes, photos, notes, cook log, plans and lists are yours. Inside your own cookbook you give us only the licence needed to store, sync, and process them to run the features you use (including AI capture and Sous), and to show them to the household you joined. We claim no ownership and no right to use your private content for anything else — not for marketing, not for training models, not for other people.
4. Sharing to the community cookbook
Publishing is optional, explicit, and gated: only keepers you’ve cooked at least twice can be shared — the community cookbook holds recipes people actually make, not untested drafts. Every submission is read by a person before it’s published.
When you publish a recipe, you grant two licences at once, in plain words:
(a) To Worth Spreading — a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to host, review, edit for clarity and safety, translate into our supported languages, and display the recipe (with its photos) in the community cookbook and in the apps, for as long as it’s published. Non-exclusive means it stays yours: publish it anywhere else you like.
(b) To everyone — the published recipe is released under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0), credited to the public name you chose. If you’d rather not be named, the credit reads “A home kitchen”. Anyone may use and adapt it, as long as they credit that name.
Withdrawing: you can unpublish a recipe any time — we stop distributing it in the community cookbook and the apps. Copies already made by others under CC BY 4.0 remain licensed; that’s how the licence works, and we say so before you publish. Only share what you’re comfortable giving the world.
5. Banked free months
A free month of Premium for every recipe we publish — banked to your account, and used up before you’re ever charged again. The details, honestly: banked months are promotional entitlements on your account (via RevenueCat), they never expire, and you can earn at most 6 a year. They are consumed as whole months of Premium access before paid billing (re)starts — they are never a “skip” of a payment already scheduled by Apple or Google, so if you have an active store subscription you may want to pause it while banked months run. Banked months have no cash value and can’t be transferred, except that they naturally benefit your household while they’re active.
6. AI features
Captures and Sous are suggestions generated by AI from what you gave the app. Nothing saves without your confirmation — you review every captured recipe before it enters your cookbook. Sous only uses your cookbook and the community collection; it can be wrong — trust your taste, especially on food safety, allergies and dietary needs. We apply fair-use limits to AI generation to keep the service healthy.
7. Subscriptions & the free floor
The free floor, forever: reading and searching your cookbook, cook mode and timers, typing recipes in by hand, browsing the community cookbook, and full export are free for as long as the app exists — your cookbook is never hostage. If a subscription lapses mid-week, the shopping list you already started finishes too.
The trial: everything is free for 14 days, no card, starting when you save your first recipe. It’s managed by the app, not by the store, so it never converts into a charge by itself.
Premium (capture, Sous, household sharing, planner and aisle-sorted shopping, every device in sync, saving community recipes) is €24.99 a year or €3.49 a month, billed entirely through Apple’s App Store or Google Play in your store’s local currency. One subscription covers a household of up to five — the entitlement lives on the household, and if it lapses, the household lapses together. Renewal and cancellation happen in your store account settings; cancelling keeps access until the period ends. EU withdrawal right: for digital purchases you have a statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, handled by Apple/Google through their refund processes; where you start using the service immediately you consent to performance beginning at once — your statutory rights remain unaffected. Nothing here limits rights that Dutch or EU consumer law gives you that cannot be waived.
8. Acceptable use
Don’t publish content you don’t have the right to share (recipes in your own words are fine; lifted copyrighted text and photos are not), don’t publish anything unsafe, hateful, or deceptive, and don’t attempt to break, overload, or reverse-engineer the service. Community submissions are moderated by a person and we may decline or remove them; repeated abuse can end publishing privileges or, in serious cases, the account (§11).
9. Our intellectual property
The app, its design, brand, and code are ours (or our licensors’). You get a personal, non-transferable licence to use the app; that’s it. Community recipes belong to their cooks, under the licences in §4.
10. Service, warranty & liability — plain language
We work to keep Make It Again reliable, but it’s provided “as is” as a consumer app: we can’t promise uninterrupted service, and features may evolve. Recipes — yours or the community’s — are followed at your own judgement; check what matters (temperatures, allergens, anything for small children). To the extent Dutch law allows, our liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event; we never exclude liability for intent, gross negligence, or anything consumer law says can’t be excluded — your statutory consumer rights always prevail.
11. Ending things
You can stop any time (delete the app / your account — export is offered first). We may end or suspend service for breach of these terms, with notice where practicable and export of your data available first. Ending the account doesn’t undo CC BY 4.0 licences already granted on recipes you published (§4).
12. Law & disputes
Dutch law governs; disputes go to the competent court in the Netherlands — and if you’re an EU consumer, mandatory consumer protections and your home courts remain available to you. EU ODR platform: ec.europa.eu/odr.
13. Changes
We may update these terms; material changes are announced in the app before taking effect. Continued use after that means acceptance.
