Terms of Use

Effective November 8, 2026

These terms cover your use of the Not My Best Cookbook app for iPhone and iPad, shared recipe pages, and the notmybest.cooking website (together, “Not My Best Cookbook”). Not My Best Cookbook is provided by Ossium LLC (“we”, “us”). By using Not My Best Cookbook you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use it.

Food and nutrition

Recipes in Not My Best Cookbook, including those in the Recipe Library and those imported from websites, are not checked by us. Use your own judgment about ingredients, allergies, cooking temperatures and food safety. Nutrition figures are estimates from USDA data for the ingredients the app can match, and may be incomplete or wrong. They are not medical or dietary advice.

The app

We give you a personal, non-transferable license to use Not My Best Cookbook on devices you own or control. Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies. If it conflicts with these terms, these terms apply to the extent the law allows. Apple is not responsible for Not My Best Cookbook or for supporting it; we are.

Your account

You can use the app without an account. If you create one, you’re responsible for keeping your email, password or Apple ID secure, and for what happens under your account. You can delete your account at any time, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Your recipes

What you add to Not My Best Cookbook is yours. We don’t claim ownership of it. You give us permission to store, copy and transmit it only as needed to provide the app to you: saving it, showing it on your devices, showing it to the members of cookbooks you share, and showing a recipe on its share page when you turn its link on.

Only add and share content you have the right to. Recipes you import from a website remain subject to that website’s rights; keep them for your own cooking, and don’t use share links to republish other people’s work.

Shared cookbooks

The owner of a cookbook decides who is in it and what they can do. Editors can add, change and delete recipes, the menu and the shopping list for everyone in that cookbook. If you delete your account, cookbooks you share pass to another member.

Acceptable use

Please don’t misuse Not My Best Cookbook. That includes trying to access other people’s accounts or cookbooks, using share links to distribute unlawful or infringing content, interfering with or overloading our servers, scraping the Recipe Library, reverse-engineering the app except where the law allows it, or using the app for anything unlawful.

Changes and availability

We may update, change or stop parts of Not My Best Cookbook over time, including the Recipe Library. If we ever plan to shut down the service that backs up and shares cookbooks, we’ll give notice in the app first.

Disclaimer

Not My Best Cookbook is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don’t promise that it will be error-free or always available, that timers will always ring, or that data will never be lost.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Ossium LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, arising from your use of Not My Best Cookbook, including anything you cook or eat. Our total liability for any claim relating to Not My Best Cookbook is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for it in the 12 months before the claim, or US $50. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Florida, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring it elsewhere.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We’ll change the date at the top of this page, and for significant changes we’ll let you know in the app. Continuing to use Not My Best Cookbook after a change means you accept the updated terms.
