Effective date: October 15, 2026
These Terms of Service (these “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you and RnJ Software LLC (“RnJ Software,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your access to and use of the Vanihla mobile application (the “App”), the website located at vanihla.com (the “Site”), and any related services that link to these Terms (collectively, the “Services”). Vanihla is a product of RnJ Software.
By creating an account, or by accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy, which describes how we process personal information. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Services.
You must be at least thirteen (13) years of age, or such greater age as is required in your country of residence to consent to the processing of your personal information, to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.
You agree to provide accurate and current information when you create an account and to keep that information up to date. Accounts are for individual, personal use, and you may not create an account on behalf of another person without that person’s authorization or permit another person to use your account. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for activity that occurs under your account, and you agree to notify us promptly at support@vanihla.com if you suspect any unauthorized access to or use of your account.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use the App on a device that you own or control, and to access and use the Services, for your personal, non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms are reserved by RnJ Software and its licensors.
Ownership. The Services permit you to create, upload, submit, save, and share content, such as recipes, photographs, links, posts, comments, ratings, recipe books, meal plans, and lists (collectively, “User Content”). As between you and RnJ Software, you retain ownership of your User Content.
License to us. By submitting User Content, you grant RnJ Software a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, sublicensable to our service providers, to host, store, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, create derivative works of, publicly display, and distribute your User Content, including by automated means, for the purposes of operating, providing, and improving the Services. This license terminates upon deletion of the applicable User Content or of your account, except with respect to User Content that remains available to other users or that we retain, in each case as described in our Privacy Policy, including copies retained in backups for a limited period.
Your representations. You represent and warrant that you own or have obtained the rights necessary to submit your User Content and to grant the license set out above, and that your User Content does not infringe or violate the rights of any third party or any applicable law.
We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive behavior.
You agree not to submit User Content, or engage in conduct, that:
We moderate content through a combination of automated tools and human review. Users may report content or block other users within the App, and we review reports in a timely manner. Any person, whether or not a user, may notify us of content available through the Services that the person considers unlawful by contacting us at support@vanihla.com, identifying the content and its location and explaining why the person considers it unlawful. We may remove or restrict content that we determine violates these Terms, and may suspend or terminate the accounts of users who submit such content or otherwise abuse the Services, without prior notice in serious or repeated cases. Where we remove or restrict content you have provided, or suspend or terminate your account, we will, where required by applicable law, notify you of the decision and the reasons for it, and you may contest the decision by contacting us at support@vanihla.com.
Automated content. The Services extract recipes from the links, images, and text that you submit, generate recipes and images in response to your requests, and generate related information, including ingredients, quantities, instructions, nutrition estimates, dietary analyses, meal plans, and Chef Nilla responses, in each case by automated processing. Such content may contain errors or omissions, and we do not warrant its accuracy or completeness.
Nutrition and dietary information. Nutrition and dietary information provided through the Services is an estimate for general informational purposes. It is not a substitute for professional medical or dietary advice and should not be relied upon for medical decisions, food allergies, or dietary restrictions. You should verify ingredients independently, particularly if you have a food allergy or a health condition.
Third-party content. The Services enable you to submit links to, or images of, content owned by third parties. You are responsible for ensuring that your submission of such links, and any use, publication, or sharing of information extracted from such content, complies with the rights of the owners of that content and with the terms of the platforms on which it is made available.
Vanihla Pro. Certain features of the Services are available only by purchasing a subscription (“Vanihla Pro”), which may be offered for monthly, annual, or other subscription periods. The features included in Vanihla Pro, the applicable price, and the terms of any free trial or introductory offer are presented on the purchase screen before you subscribe.
Purchase and billing. Subscriptions are purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play (each, an “App Store”). Payment is charged to your App Store account upon confirmation of purchase and is processed by the App Store in accordance with its terms. We do not collect or store your payment card information.
Automatic renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each subscription period for a successive period of the same length unless you cancel it before the end of the then-current period in accordance with the applicable App Store’s terms. For subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store, you must cancel at least twenty-four (24) hours before the end of the current period, and your account will be charged for renewal within the twenty-four (24) hours preceding the end of the current period.
Cancellation. You may manage or cancel your subscription at any time in the subscription settings of your App Store account. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current subscription period, and you will retain access to Vanihla Pro until that time. Deleting the App or your account does not cancel your subscription.
Free trials. If a free trial is offered, you will be charged at the end of the trial period unless you cancel before it ends in accordance with the applicable App Store’s terms (for the Apple App Store, at least twenty-four (24) hours before it ends). Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited upon purchase of a subscription.
Refunds. Refund requests are generally handled by the App Store through which the subscription was purchased, in accordance with that App Store’s policies. Except as required by applicable law, we do not issue refunds.
Price changes. We may change subscription prices from time to time. We will give advance notice of any price change as required by the applicable App Store and by applicable law, and any change will apply no earlier than the first renewal following such notice.
The Services, including the Vanihla name and logo and the software, design, and content provided by us, are owned by RnJ Software or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the license granted in Section 4, nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in the Services or in our trademarks.
If you submit suggestions or other feedback concerning the Services, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use such feedback for any purpose without obligation to you.
We respect the intellectual property rights of others, including the creators of the videos and web pages from which recipes are extracted, and we respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512. A notice must be sent to support@vanihla.com and must include:
A user whose content is removed in response to such a notice may submit to support@vanihla.com a counter-notification that complies with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). In appropriate circumstances, we will terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
You agree not to:
The Services may link to, or enable you to send content at your direction to, third-party websites and services. We do not control and are not responsible for such websites and services, which are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, the following terms apply in addition to these Terms: (a) these Terms are concluded between you and RnJ Software, and not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”), and RnJ Software, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content; (b) your license to use the App is a non-transferable license to use the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you through Family Sharing or volume purchasing; (c) RnJ Software is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the App, as specified in these Terms or as required under applicable law, and Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services with respect to the App; (d) in the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any, for the App, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation with respect to the App, and, to the extent not effectively disclaimed under these Terms, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty are the sole responsibility of RnJ Software; (e) RnJ Software, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the App or your possession or use of it, including (i) product-liability claims, (ii) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and (iii) claims arising under consumer-protection, privacy, or similar legislation, and, in the event of any third-party claim that the App or your possession and use of it infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, RnJ Software, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of that claim; (f) you represent and warrant that you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties; (g) you must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App; and (h) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance of these Terms, will have the right to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.
You may stop using the Services and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services if you violate these Terms, including the content standards in Section 6, or if we reasonably believe that your account presents a risk to other users or to the Services, without prior notice in serious or repeated cases. Upon termination, the license granted to you in Section 4 ends. Provisions that by their nature are intended to survive termination, including those concerning licenses to retained User Content, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law, will survive.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR AS TO THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF RECIPES, NUTRITION ESTIMATES, OR OTHER CONTENT GENERATED BY AUTOMATED FEATURES OF THE SERVICES.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RNJ SOFTWARE AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY RELIANCE ON RECIPE OR NUTRITION CONTENT, AND THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF RNJ SOFTWARE AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID FOR THE SERVICES IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY AND (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100). NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE, FOR FRAUD, OR FOR ANY OTHER LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless RnJ Software and its members, managers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to your User Content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any right of a third party.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. You and RnJ Software agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Florida, and each of you and RnJ Software consents to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. If you are a consumer residing in the European Economic Area, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom, nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence or of your right to bring proceedings in the courts of that country.
We may amend these Terms from time to time. We will post amended Terms on this page and update the effective date above and, where an amendment is material, will provide notice through the Services or by email a reasonable period before it takes effect. Amendments do not apply retroactively. Your continued use of the Services after an amendment takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the amended Terms.
These Terms, together with any terms presented to you at the time of purchase, constitute the entire agreement between you and RnJ Software concerning the Services. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of it. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or part of our assets. We are not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control. You consent to receive communications from us electronically, and you agree that such communications satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.
