Article 3 — Registration and user account
Use of HebdoCook requires the creation of an account with a valid email address. The service is reserved for adults or minors with authorisation from their legal representative. The user is responsible for the confidentiality of their credentials and any activity carried out from their account.
The user may delete their account at any time from settings (Account section). A grace period of 30 days applies: during this period, the account is deactivated but deletion can be cancelled. After this period, deletion becomes permanent and irreversible.
Article 4 — User content and visibility
The user retains ownership of the recipes and content they create. They choose a visibility level for each:
- Private: visible only to the creator.
- Public: accessible without authentication from the recipe URL. An image is required. Recipes imported from an external URL cannot be made public.
By publishing a recipe in Public mode, the user grants HebdoCook a non-exclusive, free and worldwide licence to display and distribute it to other users of the platform.
The user may change the visibility or delete their recipes at any time from their personal space. In the event of account deletion, recipes published in Public mode are retained in anonymised form (the author's name is replaced by their username or by "HebdoCook"). If the user wishes their recipes to be permanently deleted, they must delete them manually before closing their account.
Article 5 — Features reserved for the Pro offer
Certain features are exclusively accessible to Pro subscribers:
- Recipe import: automatic import from any cooking website (up to 100 imports per month). This feature uses artificial intelligence and is subject to a global daily budget. In case of excess, it may be temporarily unavailable without notice.
- Auto-Planning: personalised menu suggestions based on the user's tastes and dietary habits.

Article 6 — Usage rules

Uploaded images are limited to 5 MB per file (accepted formats: JPG, PNG, WebP), with a maximum of 75 uploads per day and 15 per hour per account.
Any breach of these rules may result in the temporary suspension or permanent termination of the account, including a permanent ban, without notice or refund (see Article 8).
Article 7 — Account deletion and data fate
Upon permanent deletion of an account, data is processed as follows:

The user is encouraged to keep a copy of their important recipes. The occasional unavailability of recipe import features (subject to a daily budget) does not constitute a breach of these ToU.
Article 12 — Force majeure
HebdoCook cannot be held responsible for the non-performance of all or part of its obligations in the event of a force majeure event within the meaning of Article 1218 of the French Civil Code (natural disaster, general Internet outage, government decision, major cyberattack, etc.).
