Terms of Use

Last updated: August 18, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Flowstate Labs LLC ("Flowstate Labs," "we," "us," or "our") governing your access to and use of the Cookflow mobile application and the cookflowai.com website (together, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may only use the Service under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.

2. The Service

Cookflow lets you save, import, and organize recipes; build menus; generate grocery lists; and optionally connect third-party grocery retailers to build a shopping cart. Some features (recipe import parsing, cloud sync, retailer connections) rely on third-party services described in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

3. No account required; your content

Cookflow does not require you to create an account with an email or password. Recipes, menus, grocery lists, notes, and other content you add ("User Content") remain yours. By importing or entering User Content, you represent that you have the right to do so, and you grant Flowstate Labs a limited, non-exclusive license to store, process, and display that content solely to provide the Service to you (e.g. to sync it across your devices if you enable that feature). We do not claim ownership of your recipes or lists.

4. Recipe content, food safety & allergen disclaimer

Cookflow is a recipe organization and planning tool. It is not a source of medical, nutritional, dietary, or food-safety advice, and recipe content — whether imported from third-party websites, transcribed from a photo, entered by you, or included as a default/sample recipe — is provided "as is" without any warranty of accuracy, completeness, or safety.

5. Third-party recipe sources & imports

When you import a recipe from a third-party website or photo, that content may be protected by the copyright of its original author or publisher. You are responsible for ensuring your personal use of imported content complies with applicable copyright law and the source website's own terms of use. Flowstate Labs does not review or endorse the accuracy or legality of third-party recipe content.

6. Grocery retailer connections & purchases

If you connect a grocery retailer (e.g. Kroger) or are handed off to one (e.g. Walmart), any order, payment, delivery, pricing, availability, or substitution issue is solely between you and that retailer, governed by the retailer's own terms and policies. Flowstate Labs is not a party to that transaction, does not process payments, and is not responsible for retailer pricing accuracy, product availability, order fulfillment, or delivery.

7. Affiliate & referral relationships

Flowstate Labs may participate in affiliate or referral programs (e.g. via Impact.com) with grocery retailers or brands. We may earn a commission when you follow certain links and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. See our Privacy Policy for more detail.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to: use the Service for any unlawful purpose; attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to the Service or its infrastructure; reverse-engineer or misuse our recipe-parsing or third-party integrations beyond normal personal use; or upload content you don't have the right to use.

9. Intellectual property

The Service, including the Cookflow name, logo, design, and underlying software, is owned by Flowstate Labs LLC and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks or branding without our prior written consent.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT RECIPE PARSING, GROCERY MATCHING, OR RETAILER INTEGRATIONS WILL BE ACCURATE.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FLOWSTATE LABS LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY HARM ARISING FROM RECIPE CONTENT, FOOD PREPARATION, OR THIRD-PARTY RETAILER TRANSACTIONS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US, IF ANY, IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $50. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Flowstate Labs LLC from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, misuse of the Service, or the content you submit.

13. Termination

You may stop using the Service, and delete your locally-stored data, at any time by deleting the App. We may suspend or terminate access to any cloud-connected features for conduct that violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the Service.

14. Changes to the Service or these Terms

We may modify the Service or these Terms at any time. If we make material changes to these Terms, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

15. Governing law & dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable consumer-protection law requires otherwise. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in that state, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there, except where applicable law requires a different forum.

16. Apple App Store additional terms

If you downloaded the App from the Apple App Store, you acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Flowstate Labs LLC only, not Apple, and Apple has no obligation to furnish support or maintenance for the App. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, and Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms with the right to enforce them against you.

This document is a comprehensive draft prepared to reflect Cookflow's actual features and to cover the risk areas typical of a recipe/grocery app (food-safety and allergen disclaimers, third- party retailer liability, and standard liability limitations). It is not a substitute for review by a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction — in particular, confirm the governing-law state in Section 15 and have counsel review the arbitration/liability language before you rely on it as your sole legal protection.
