Privacy Policy

Effective November 13, 2026

Weeknights is a recipe book and weekly dinner planner run by Ross Robino, an individual in the United States (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what we collect when you use weeknights.org, what we do with it, and the choices you have.

1. What we collect

What you give us

• Account details: your email address, username, and display name.
• Your book: recipes, weeks, grocery lists, the cooks you log with their ratings and notes, and the photos of food you add.
• Passkeys: the public half of each passkey you make, with its name and the date. We never have a password, and the private half of a passkey never leaves your device or password manager.
• Connections: which AI assistants you have connected, and which friends you have added.

What we get automatically

• Technical data: your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested, kept in server logs to run the service and stop abuse.
• Cookies: a cookie that keeps you signed in, and short-lived cookies that hold a form’s contents if it needs correcting. We use no advertising or analytics cookies and no trackers.

We do not collect payment details, your contacts, or your location.

2. How we use it

We use what we collect to provide Weeknights: to show you your book, plan and print your weeks, sign you in, show a recipe to the people you chose to show it to, and keep the service secure. We do not sell your information, show ads, or use your content to train AI models.

3. What other people can see

Your book is private. Nobody else can see it unless you choose otherwise:

• Published recipes are public. Anyone can see a recipe you publish, the photos from its cooks, your display name, and your username. They can subscribe to it or make their own copy.
• Shared recipes are seen by the friend you share them with, along with the photos from their cooks.
• Friends see your display name and username, and only the recipes you share with them.

Your email address, your weeks, and your ratings and notes are never shown to anyone else.

4. AI assistants

You can connect an AI assistant, such as Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok Bot, to your book. An assistant you connect acts as you: it can read, add, change, and delete anything in your book. What it reads is sent to the company that makes that assistant and is handled under that company’s terms and privacy policy, not this one. You can disconnect an assistant at any time on your Account page.

Recipe cards, pages, and screenshots you show your assistant stay between you and it. Weeknights keeps only the recipe it saves and the food photos you add.

5. Who helps us run it

We use these companies to run Weeknights, and they process your information for us:

• Vercel hosts the website and stores photos.
• Neon hosts the database.

Both store data in the United States. We share information with others only if the law requires it, or to protect the rights and safety of Weeknights and the people who use it.

6. How long we keep it

We keep your information until you delete it or delete your account. Deleting your account deletes your recipes, published versions, weeks, cooks, photos, passkeys, and connections. Photos are deleted right away. Our database host, Neon, keeps a short history that could be used to restore the database after a mistake, currently 6 hours; after that, what you deleted is gone for good. A copy of one of your published recipes that someone else made before you deleted it is theirs and stays in their book.

7. Your choices

• See and correct: everything we hold about you is in your book and on your Account page, where you can change it.
• Take it with you: an assistant you connect can read your whole book and write it out for you, or you can ask us for a copy.
• Delete: delete your account on your Account page, or ask us to.
• Ask: write to us with any question or request about your information. Depending on where you live, the law may give you further rights, such as objecting to how your information is used. We will honor a valid request wherever you live.

8. Children

Weeknights is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has made an account, write to us and we will delete it.

9. Security

Sign-in uses passkeys, so there is no password to steal. Connections are encrypted, and private photos are served only to people allowed to see them. No service can promise perfect security, so please tell us if you think something is wrong.

10. Changes

If we change this policy we will post the new version here with a new date. If a change is significant, we will say so on the site before it takes effect.
