Cook Vibes is a community where home cooks share recipes, write blog posts, leave comments, and message each other. These Community Guidelines describe what is and isn’t allowed, how to report problems, and how we enforce the rules. By using any community feature, you agree to follow these Guidelines, our Terms of Service, and all applicable laws. The App is intended for users 18 years or older.
Treat other members with kindness. Disagreements about cooking are fine; personal attacks are not. Do not insult, demean, or mock other users, their recipes, photos, or questions.
You may not post, share, upload, or send any of the following: (a) Hate speech, slurs, or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or age; (b) Harassment, bullying, intimidation, or repeated unwanted contact; (c) Threats of violence or content that incites harm to any person or group; (d) Sexual or explicit content, nudity, or pornography; (e) Impersonation of another person, or claiming a false identity or affiliation; (f) Spam, unsolicited advertising, or repetitive, low-effort posting; (g) Content that is illegal, or promotes illegal activity, including drugs, weapons, or terrorism; (h) Sharing another person’s private information without consent (doxxing), such as home address, phone number, or private photos; (i) Intentional misinformation or deceptive content (e.g., false nutrition or allergy claims that could endanger health); (j) Infringement of copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights — including importing and republishing recipes or images you do not own or have permission to share. Recipes, posts, comments, or messages that violate these rules may be removed without notice.
You can report content that you believe violates these Guidelines directly in the App: • Report a blog post, comment, recipe, or chat message using the Report option near the content; • Block a user from their profile or chat to stop them from contacting you. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team. We may not respond individually to every report, but we review all of them.
To keep the community safe, we use a combination of automated screening and human review. Depending on the violation, we may: • Remove or hide the offending content; • Place new accounts’ posts or comments in a review queue (shadow-queue) so they are visible only to the author and moderators until approved; • Limit a user’s ability to post, comment, or message; • Suspend the account temporarily; • Permanently terminate the account for serious or repeated violations. We reserve the right to remove any content or account at our discretion, without prior notice, and to take action we consider reasonably necessary to protect the community and comply with the law.
When content is removed for a violation, we may retain copies for a reasonable period for record-keeping, legal compliance, and to prevent repeat abuse. Your account and data may be deleted at any time from Settings → Delete Account.
If you believe your content was removed or your account was suspended in error, you can appeal by emailing hello@novavibes.app with the subject line "Appeal" and a short explanation. We will review the appeal and respond as soon as practicable.
