Health & Nutrition Disclaimer

1. AtoCook’s role

AtoCook provides cooking, planning, organizational, and informational tools. It is not a medical provider, registered dietitian service, food-safety authority, or emergency service.

AtoCook does not diagnose or treat medical conditions and does not give individualized nutrition counseling. If you have a medical condition, a prescribed diet, allergies, pregnancy-related dietary needs, or another situation that needs individualized care, seek advice from a qualified professional.

2. Nutrition information and its limits

Nutrition values shown in AtoCook may come from different sources, including:

• nutrition a creator enters manually;
• calculations that use nutrition reference data (for example, USDA FoodData Central ingredient lookups); and
• AI-assisted recipe nutrition estimates that a creator requests for a recipe.

Values depend on factors such as ingredient identity, quantities, edible portions, preparation methods, recipe yield, servings, and substitutions. Estimates may be incomplete or unavailable.

An incomplete subtotal leaves out contributions that could not be resolved. Missing information is not zero, and displayed precision is not independent verification. Saving or publishing nutrition information in AtoCook does not mean AtoCook has independently verified or certified it.

3. Meal plans, What you ate, and targets

Meal plans describe the meals you intend to eat. What you ate reflects the intake and portions you record. Totals and comparisons with nutrition targets depend on what you recorded and on the nutrition data available for those items.

These tools do not prove what you actually ate, and they do not show that a meal plan or intake record is medically suitable for you. AtoCook does not promise automatic food recognition or any health, fitness, or nutrition outcome.

4. Recipe nutrition estimation

Where available, a creator may request an AI-assisted nutrition estimate for a recipe. Estimation is a recipe tool and is separate from What you ate. Requests are processed through AtoCook’s servers.

Creators are responsible for reviewing estimate results, editing them where the app allows, and deciding whether to save or publish nutrition information. Estimates can be wrong, incomplete, or unavailable. Review them before relying on them or publishing them.

More detail on estimation and related information practices appears in our AI Disclosure and Privacy Policy.

5. Allergies and dietary labels

Recipe tags, dietary labels, and nutrition estimates are not allergen certifications and are not certifications that a recipe is gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, or suitable for any other dietary requirement.

Before cooking or eating, check product labels, substitutions, and cross-contact risks. If allergies or other dietary restrictions are involved, use product packaging and professional guidance—not AtoCook labels or estimates alone.

6. Food safety

You are responsible for safe food handling, storage, preparation, cooking, cooling, reheating, and serving. Pantry records do not verify freshness, storage conditions, or safety. Timers, recipe photos, and how food looks do not establish that food is safely cooked.

Where appropriate, use a food thermometer and follow official local food-safety guidance, product labels, and manufacturer instructions.

7. Emergencies

The AtoCook app and the support inbox are not emergency services. For a medical or other emergency, contact local emergency services. For suspected poisoning, get help from local poison control or emergency services.

8. Creator content and responsibility

Creators remain responsible for the recipes and other content they publish, including ingredients, instructions, and any nutrition information they save or publish. AtoCook may moderate content under its policies, but moderation does not make AtoCook the author of creator-owned material.

Consistent with our Terms of Service, AtoCook provides cooking tools and information only. Use judgment before following recipes, meal plans, or other instructions. Nothing in this disclaimer limits rights that cannot be limited under applicable law.

9. Updates

AtoCook may update this Health & Nutrition Disclaimer when practices or features change. When changes are significant, AtoCook will provide appropriate notice. Posting a revised “Last updated” date alone is not used as your acceptance of a revised disclaimer.
