Terms of Use
Last updated: 10 September 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of the Pipiro mobile application and related services (“Pipiro”, “the app”, “the service”). By creating an account or using Pipiro, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
1. Who we are
Pipiro is operated by:
- AJ Studio, MB
- Perkūnkiemio g. 19, LT-12120 Vilnius, Lithuania
- Get in touch via our contact form
In these Terms, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean AJ Studio, MB. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your personal data.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to use Pipiro. By using the app you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide is accurate.
3. Your account
- You sign in using your email address (with a one-time code) or via Google or Apple sign-in.
- You are responsible for keeping access to your email and devices secure.
- You are responsible for activity that happens under your account.
- Notify us promptly via our contact form if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.
- You can choose to share your account’s recipe library with other people (a “household”). Section 9 sets out what that means.
- You can also share individual recipes and collections with anyone via a link. Section 10 sets out what that means.
4. What Pipiro lets you do
Pipiro lets you create, import, organise, share, and iterate on recipes. This includes importing recipes from social media and other online sources, editing and versioning your own recipes, saving them to collections, and viewing AI-generated estimates of a recipe’s nutrition.
5. Your content
- You retain ownership of the recipes, photos, notes, and other content you create or upload (“Your Content”).
- You grant us a limited licence to host, store, process, and display Your Content solely to operate and provide the service to you - including, where you choose to share content, displaying it to the people you share it with (Sections 9 and 10).
- You are responsible for Your Content and for ensuring you have the rights to upload and use it.
- If you join a household, you allow its other members to view, edit, and delete the part of Your Content that is in the shared library (see Section 9). You keep ownership of it.
6. Importing recipes from third-party sources
- The import feature fetches publicly available content from a link you provide and uses an AI model to extract structured recipe information.
- You are responsible for the links you import and for respecting the rights of the original creators and the terms of the source platforms.
- Recipes, ingredients, and instructions are provided for personal, informational use. Pipiro does not guarantee that imported or AI-extracted content is accurate, complete, or safe. Always use your own judgement, especially regarding allergens, food safety, and dietary needs.
- Pipiro does not import recipes from Russian websites (
.ru,.рфand.sudomains), because of the war in Ukraine. This applies by domain only and does not depend on the language of a recipe.
Copyright and content complaints. If you believe content stored in Pipiro infringes your copyright or other rights, get in touch via our contact form and give us: your contact details; the work you say is infringed; enough detail to locate the content in Pipiro (for example a recipe share link); a statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law; a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the rights holder or authorised to act for them; and your signature, electronic or physical. We remove or disable content that infringes, and we terminate accounts that infringe repeatedly. If your content was removed and you believe that was a mistake, tell us the same way and we will review it.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the app for any unlawful purpose or in breach of any third party’s rights;
- upload content that is illegal, infringing, harmful, hateful, or abusive;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the service or other users’ data;
- interfere with, overload, or disrupt the service or its infrastructure;
- misuse the import or AI features (for example, to scrape content at scale or to circumvent the terms or usage restrictions of source platforms);
- reverse engineer or attempt to extract source code, except where permitted by law.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
8. Subscriptions and paid features
Pipiro offers free and paid features. Free accounts have usage limits (for example, on the number of recipe imports).
Pipiro offers an optional paid subscription with a monthly or yearly plan that unlocks additional features, including unlimited recipe imports:
- Subscriptions are purchased and billed through the relevant app store (Apple App Store or Google Play). That store’s payment, billing, and refund terms apply in addition to these Terms. Current prices are always shown in the app before you purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or yearly) unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
- You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple App Store or Google Play account settings. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
- If you cancel, you keep access to paid features until the end of the period you have already paid for. After that, your account reverts to the free tier and its limits; your recipes and other content are kept.
- Refunds are handled by the app store you purchased through, under that store’s refund policy. If you are an EU consumer, you can exercise any applicable right of withdrawal through the store’s refund process.
A Pipiro subscription renews automatically at the price and for the interval (monthly or yearly) shown in the app at the moment of purchase, and keeps renewing until you cancel. Apple or Google charges you at the start of each period. You may cancel at any time, and the only place to do it is your Apple App Store or Google Play subscription settings - we cannot cancel a subscription on your behalf. Cancelling before the current period ends stops the next charge; you keep paid features until that period runs out. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Any price change is notified to you and takes effect only in accordance with the app store’s rules, which require your consent where the store’s rules so provide.
Fair use. “Unlimited” recipe imports on paid plans means unlimited for personal use. Pipiro is a personal recipe app: using the import feature as a general-purpose scraping or data-extraction service, or at volumes inconsistent with personal use, is not permitted (see Section 7). We may apply technical safeguards against automated or abusive usage, and may throttle, suspend, or terminate accounts that misuse the feature.
Household plans. Pipiro also offers a household plan (monthly or yearly) that unlocks paid features for everyone in a household (see Section 9):
- The plan is bought and billed through one person’s app-store account - the person who purchases it. The other members are not billed for it and cannot manage or cancel it.
- Paid features apply to the members of that household for as long as the plan is active. If the person paying cancels, their plan expires, or they leave or are removed from the household, the other members return to the free tier and its limits; their content is kept.
- If you already have an individual subscription and then join a household that is covered by a household plan, your own subscription is not cancelled automatically - only the app store can cancel it, in your own store settings.
Pricing and limits may change; we will make reasonable efforts to communicate material changes in advance, and price changes for an existing subscription take effect only in accordance with the applicable app store’s rules.
9. Households (sharing a library)
Pipiro lets you share one recipe library with the people you cook with (a “household”) - up to five people, including you.
- Joining a household is always your choice: you join only by accepting an invitation, and you can leave at any time.
- When you join, the recipes, shopping lists, and weekly meal plan on your account move into the shared library. Every member of a household can view, edit, and delete everything in it, including content you contributed. Share an account only with people you trust.
- Anyone holding a valid invitation link or code can join your household, so treat an invitation like a key to your home: send it only to the person you mean to invite. You can revoke a pending invitation at any time in the app.
- Any member can remove another member from the household. Removal has the same effect as leaving.
- Leaving or being removed. The recipes you created leave with you, and your star ratings are removed from the cooks that stay behind. Shared shopping lists and the weekly meal plan stay with the household.
- Deleting your account while in a household. The recipes you created are deleted for everyone in that household, including members who have been cooking from them. Shared shopping lists and the weekly meal plan stay with the household.
10. Sharing recipes and collections by link
Pipiro lets you share a single recipe or a collection via a link.
- A share link can be opened by anyone who has it - its web page shows a preview (name, photo, short description), and the full content opens in the Pipiro app for signed-in users. Treat what you share as public.
- The link serves the recipe’s (or collection’s) current content - your later edits are available at the same link. Your version history, cook history, and notes are never shown.
- You can stop sharing at any time in the app; every previously sent link stops working. Sharing again creates a new link.
- Signed-in viewers can save a copy of your shared content to their own library, and can follow a shared collection. A saved copy belongs to them and keeps working after you stop sharing; if you created the recipe, the name you set in the app is shown on the copy as its author.
- Share only content you have the right to distribute. This matters most for recipes imported from other creators (Section 6): importing is for your personal use, and making imported content available to others via a link is your responsibility towards the original creator and the source platform.
- We may disable share links, or remove shared content, that violates Section 7.
11. Service availability
We aim to keep Pipiro available and reliable, but the service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. We are not liable for downtime, data loss beyond our reasonable control, or third-party service interruptions.
12. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pipiro is provided without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that the app will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that recipe content (including imported or AI-generated content) is accurate or suitable for any particular purpose.
Nutrition estimates. Any nutrition information Pipiro shows (such as calories and macronutrients) is an approximate, AI-generated estimate based on the ingredients you enter, not a measured or verified value. It is provided for general informational purposes only and is not nutritional, dietary, or medical advice. Do not rely on it for medical, allergen, or dietary decisions; consult a qualified professional and the original product information where accuracy matters.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, such as liability for intentional misconduct or gross negligence. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights are not affected.
14. Termination
You may stop using Pipiro at any time and delete your account directly in the app, which permanently removes your account and associated content. If you are in a household when you do, Section 9 sets out what happens to the content you shared with it. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Your continued use of Pipiro after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
16. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have under the law of your country or state of residence. Disputes are subject to the competent courts of Lithuania, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
Nothing here waives rights you cannot waive. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or a US state such as California, the mandatory consumer-protection rules of your home jurisdiction continue to apply, and this section does not deprive you of their protection or of the right to bring proceedings under them.
Consumer dispute bodies. If we cannot settle a complaint between us and you are an EU consumer, you may refer it to the State Consumer Rights Protection Authority of Lithuania (Valstybinė vartotojų teisių apsaugos tarnyba, https://www.vvtat.lt) or to the consumer dispute body in your own country. Using such a body is voluntary and does not affect your right to go to court.
