Title: ChefScribe – Terms of Service
Last updated: {{today}}
Welcome to ChefScribe!
These Terms of Service explain how you may use our website, app, and Chrome extension. By using ChefScribe, you agree to follow these terms.
1. What ChefScribe Does
ChefScribe helps you turn YouTube cooking videos into clear, easy-to-read written recipes using AI.
Our summaries are interpretations, not copies. We always link back to the original creator’s video.
ChefScribe is for personal and educational use only.
2. Your Account
To save recipes, you may create an account.
You agree to:
- Keep your login details secure
- Only use ChefScribe for your own personal use
- Not share or resell access to your account
We may suspend accounts that misuse the service or violate these terms.
3. Fair Use & Copyright
All YouTube videos, thumbnails, content, and recipes belong to their original creators.
ChefScribe:
- Does not download or store YouTube videos
- Does not reproduce copyrighted content
- Creates AI-generated summaries based on what appears in the video
Every recipe includes a link back to the original video to support the creator.
If you share a recipe publicly, you must credit the creator and include the video link.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use ChefScribe for bulk scraping or automated data extraction
- Redistribute creators’ content as your own
- Claim ChefScribe’s AI summaries are official versions of the recipe

ChefScribe is meant to help you cook — not to replace creators.
