Terms of Service
By using Fakeout Kitchen you agree to these terms. Please read them — they cover how the site works and what you can submit.
The service
Fakeout Kitchen is a recipe directory. Browsing is free, and submitting a recipe is free. You can optionally create an account to favorite and save recipes.
Your account
We sign you in with a one-time link sent to your email, so keep access to that inbox secure. You're responsible for activity under your account.
Submitting a recipe
- You must own the rights to what you submit, or have permission to share it. Don't submit content that infringes someone else's copyright or trademark.
- By submitting, you grant Fakeout Kitchen a non-exclusive license to publish and display your recipe on the site. You keep ownership of your content.
- Every submission is reviewed by a human before it goes live — nothing is published automatically. If it's a good fit, we publish it credited to you with a link back to your site.
- We may decline or remove any submission that doesn't meet our guidelines.
Acceptable use
Don't use the site to post spam, illegal content, or anything infringing or harmful, and don't try to disrupt or abuse the service.
Affiliate links
Some outbound product links may be affiliate links, meaning we may earn a small commission if you buy — at no extra cost to you. When that's the case we disclose it where those links appear.
Ingredient suggestions & product links
Where possible, Fakeout Kitchen suggests cleaner or higher-quality ingredient alternatives ("clean swaps"). These are editorial suggestions based on our own research — not a guarantee that any substitute meets a specific certification, organic standard, or dietary requirement. Always read product labels before you buy.
Outbound product links search a third-party retailer (currently Amazon). The results you see depend on the retailer's search algorithm, your region, and current stock. Not all results are guaranteed to be organic, grass-fed, non-GMO, or otherwise match the exact specification we describe. We do not control or endorse any specific product listing.
Disclaimers
Recipes, nutrition notes, and ingredient swaps are provided as-is for general information. You're responsible for checking ingredients against your own allergies and dietary needs. Fakeout Kitchen makes no warranty that any recipe will suit your needs.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Fakeout Kitchen is not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the site.
Changes
We may update these terms; we'll change the date above when we do. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
