Privacy Policy
SimpleTable · Companion Apps LLC
Companion Apps LLC built SimpleTable as a local-first meal planning app. This policy explains how your data is handled on your device and the few optional services that connect to the outside world.
Local-First Storage
Your recipes, meal plans, pantry items, and shopping lists remain strictly on your device in sandboxed storage. We do not operate user accounts, central databases, or cloud backups of this content. Optional Calendar sync writes meal plan entries only to your phone's own calendar app — not to our servers. Data leaves your device only when you choose to use Partner Sync.
End-to-End Encrypted Partner Sync
Optional Partner Sync lets you share your meal plan or shopping list with another device (for example, a spouse or partner) using a short-lived relay hosted on Supabase. Your selected content is encrypted on your device before it is sent. The relay stores only ciphertext and cannot decrypt it — only the paired device with your shared code can. Temporary payloads automatically expire and are purged within 24 hours. Nothing is sent unless you start Partner Sync yourself.
Dining-Out Location
If you mark a meal as dining out, the app requests access to your device's location to search for and display nearby restaurant options. Location is used only for that lookup, is not stored beyond what's needed to show those results, and is not shared with AdMob or any advertiser.
Telemetry & Crash Reporting
We use Sentry for crash reporting in production builds. Before any report is sent, we scrub personally identifiable information and request bodies. You can turn crash reporting off at any time in Settings.
Non-Personalized Ads
SimpleTable is free and supported by a Google AdMob banner ad. We request non-personalized ads only. AdMob does not read your recipes, meal plans, shopping lists, or location — the same as our health apps, it only sees an anonymous advertising ID used to decide which ad to show. We never share your recipe, meal plan, shopping list, or location data with AdMob or any advertiser.
Data Erasure
You may permanently delete your data at any time by selecting 'Reset App & Erase All Data' in Settings or by uninstalling the application.
Recipe & Nutrition Disclaimer
SimpleTable provides recipe suggestions, ingredient substitutions, meal scheduling, and shopping list generation for general convenience and culinary planning only. It does not provide certified medical, dietary, or nutritional advice. You are solely responsible for verifying ingredients, potential allergens, food preparation safety, and cooking or thaw times for yourself and anyone consuming food prepared using recipes or plans stored in the app.
Children's Privacy (COPPA)
SimpleTable is not directed to children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided personal data, we will delete it immediately.

Terms of Service
SimpleTable — Companion Apps LLC
By using SimpleTable, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully.
No account required
SimpleTable does not use accounts. You are responsible for the security of your own device and for any content you choose to share through Partner Sync.
Recipe & nutrition disclaimer
SimpleTable provides recipe suggestions, ingredient substitutions, meal scheduling, and shopping list generation for general convenience and culinary planning only, and does not provide certified medical, dietary, or nutritional advice.
Your information
You are responsible for the accuracy of the recipes, meal plans, and other information you enter in the app, and for verifying ingredients, allergens, food preparation safety, and cooking or thaw times for any recipe you use.
Free to download
SimpleTable is free to download from the Apple App Store and Google Play, with no subscription and no hidden fees. A small banner advertisement helps keep the app free.
Your content and Partner Sync
You retain ownership of all recipes, meal plans, shopping lists, and other content you create or store in the app. When you use Partner Sync to share your meal plan or shopping list, you authorize Companion Apps LLC to transmit that content, in encrypted form, through our relay solely to deliver it to the device you choose to share with. We do not access, read, use, or store the readable content, and this authorization applies only to what you actively choose to share via Partner Sync — not to any other content you keep in the app. You agree not to share content through Partner Sync that is illegal, defamatory, infringes on intellectual property rights, or contains malicious code.
Provided as-is
The app is provided as-is, without any guarantee of uninterrupted or error-free service.
Limitation of liability
The developer is not liable for allergic reactions, foodborne illness, or other outcomes related to food preparation, allergens, or nutrition based on information stored in or displayed by this app.
