Copyright and reports
How Cucinario handles third-party content and how to report content you believe infringes your rights.
Updated on
Cucinario reads content published by other people. This page explains how we do it, within what limits, and how to act if you believe one of your rights has been violated.
How importing works
When you import a link, the app extracts from that content the information necessary to reconstruct a recipe: ingredients, quantities, timings and steps. The result ends up in your personal library, visible only to you.
Three things we do not do:
- We do not republish the original content. Cucinario has no public feed, no shared collection and does not show your library to other users.
- We do not copy the author's text. We extract the recipe data and rewrite it in a structured form.
- We do not remove attribution. Every imported recipe retains the author's name and the link to the original content.
What it's based on
In many jurisdictions, a list of ingredients and a procedure are considered factual information and not a protected work in themselves; protection concerns the way that content is expressed — the text, the photographs, the video. For this reason we extract the data and do not reproduce the expression.
Importing is intended for the personal use of the person requesting it. It does not authorize republishing the original material, nor using it for commercial purposes.
This page describes our approach and does not constitute legal advice.
If you are the author of content
If you believe Cucinario handles content in a way that infringes your right, write to us at support@cucinario.app with subject “Segnalazione diritto d'autore”.
To allow us to act quickly, indicate:
- The content in question, with the link.
- The right you believe is violated and the basis for it.
- Your name and a contact.
- A statement that you, in good faith, believe the use is not authorized.
What happens next: we confirm receipt within 3 working days. If the report is well-founded, we disable extraction from that source and remove the material concerned from our systems. We tell you what we have done.
If you prefer that your content not be imported at all, tell us: we can exclude an account or a domain at the source.
If you are a user
When you import content, you choose which link to provide. We ask you to:
- Import only content that you can access legitimately.
- Use the recipes you obtain for yourself, not to republish them.
- Do not use the service to circumvent access restrictions of other platforms.
