Your privacy

Privacy, in plain language

Sharing food with neighbors shouldn't cost you your privacy. Here is exactly what this app keeps, who can see it, and what never happens to it — no fine print.

What we keep

Only what the app needs to connect you with neighbors.

Your account

The email address you signed up with, and the display name you choose. Your legal name is never shown to anyone in the community.

Your profile details

Anything you add yourself — a photo, a short bio, and a general area. These are optional; the app works without them.

Listings and their map pin

What you offer or ask for, the note you write, and the approximate location you pin so neighbors can find it. You choose how precise that pin is.

Forum posts and replies

The recipes and messages you share on the forum, along with your display name.

Chats and ratings

Messages you exchange about a hand-off, and the thumbs up or down neighbors leave after one.

Who can see it

Most of what you post is meant to be seen — but not all of it.

Listings and forum posts are community-visible

Any signed-in neighbor can see your listings, forum posts and display name. They cannot see your email address.

Chats stay between two people

A conversation is only visible to you and the other person in it. Nobody else can read it.

Admins can see accounts to keep the community safe

The people running this community can view accounts and remove listings or posts that break the rules — for example when something is reported.

What never happens

No selling, no tracking, no advertising.

We don't sell or rent your information

Member details are not sold, rented or traded. There is no data broker, mailing list or marketing partner on the other end.

No ads and no trackers

There are no advertising networks, analytics scripts, tracking pixels or third-party cookies in this app. Nobody is building a profile of what you browse.

Only what the app needs

We ask for an email so you can sign in and get notified about messages. We don't ask for your address, your phone number, your date of birth or any payment details — and there is no payment anywhere in the app.

The only outside services we use

These keep the maps and location search working.

OpenStreetMap — map tiles

The map images you see are loaded from OpenStreetMap, which can see the area of the map being viewed. It receives no name or email.

OpenStreetMap Nominatim — location lookup

When you type a zip code, street or neighborhood into the location box, only that text is sent to turn it into coordinates. Nothing about you goes with it.

Hosting

This app runs on Base44's hosting platform, so what you store here lives on that infrastructure. Base44 publishes its own privacy policy and data processing agreement, and any request from authorities would go through that process rather than through this community.

Your choices

You stay in control of what's here.

Change or clear your profile

You can edit or remove your photo, bio and area at any time from your profile settings.

Remove your own content

You can delete your listings, forum posts and chats yourself whenever you like.

Delete your account

Deleting your account from your profile removes your listings and your account details — email, display name, photo, bio and area. Anything you posted to the forum stays visible unless you delete it first.
