1. Introduction

Sourdough Forge (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy.

This Privacy Policy explains what information is stored locally, what information may be transmitted when you use particular features, why that information is processed, and which service providers may process it.

By using Sourdough Forge, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Information Stored Locally

Most of your baking information is stored locally on your device. This may include:

• Sourdough starters
• Saved and imported recipes
• Baking plans and timelines
• Journal entries
• Feeding records
• Preferences and app settings
• Photographs added to your local journal

We do not operate a user-account system for this locally stored baking information, and we do not routinely have access to it.

Locally stored information may be removed if you delete the app, clear its data, reset your device, or lose access to the device.

3. Recipe Import

When you use the recipe-import feature, certain information is transmitted from your device to our API infrastructure and to Google Gemini so that the requested recipe can be extracted.

Depending on the import method, this information may include:

• A recipe URL that you explicitly submit
