Privacy Policy

Last updated: 8/18/2026

This Privacy Policy applies to all iChef users — clients booking private chefs and chefs offering their services on the platform.

1. Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email, profile details, and booking information. We also collect course progress in the iChef Academy and, with your permission, your address for bookings.

2. How we use your information

We use your data to operate the platform, match chefs with clients, process bookings, communicate with you, and improve our services.

3. Sharing your information

Your exact address is shared only with the chef who has accepted your booking. Chef profile information is visible to users browsing the directory. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Data security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections and access controls at the database level. No system is completely secure, so please protect your account credentials.

5. Your choices

You can update or delete your profile information at any time. You may also request deletion of your account by contacting support.

6. Cookies and analytics

We may use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in and understand how the platform is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

7. Children's privacy

iChef is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on the platform.
