How to delete specific data in PeluChef, without deleting your account
Last updated: November 1, 2026
PeluChef lets you delete or edit several of your data points at any time, without needing to delete your entire account. All of these steps are done from within the app (no separate process, no need to write to us):
Delete a recipe
In your recipes ("Mine"), open the recipe's menu and choose "Delete recipe" (or tap the trash icon, if you see one on its card) and confirm. The title, ingredients, steps and photo of that recipe are deleted instantly (the photo is kept only if another recipe of yours still uses it, for example a copy you saved as new). It is irreversible and does not affect the rest of your account.
Remove a favorite or a heart
You can remove the star from a recipe by tapping it again. Giving a heart to another account's recipe is the same as saving (watching) it in your "Saved": to undo it, stop watching that recipe (see below).
Take a recipe off your weekly menu
In "My week", you can remove a recipe from a calendar slot or delete a whole menu whenever you want. The same goes for the shopping list: you can clear it from the list itself.
Change or remove your profile photo
From your profile, tap your photo and pick a new one (or upload a blank/neutral image if you would rather not have a photo). The previous photo is deleted from our server as soon as you replace it.
Edit or clear your bio or signature
From your profile → Edit profile, you can rewrite or delete the text of your bio and signature at any time. Saving the field empty deletes that data from our server.
Stop sharing a recipe
If you marked a recipe as "Published", you can switch it back to "Unpublished" at any time: it stops showing on your public profile and in the Feed of your followers, without deleting the recipe itself.
Stop watching a saved recipe
From your "Saved" section, you can remove at any time another user's recipe you are watching: it stops appearing on your account, without affecting the original account.
Dismiss a pending Instagram or TikTok import
If you imported a recipe from a video and have not confirmed it yet, you can open it from the pending-imports screen and tap the trash icon to dismiss it: it is deleted instantly, along with the video thumbnail we had stored. If you do nothing, the import stays pending indefinitely until you confirm it, dismiss it, or delete your account.
Your subscription
When you subscribe to Premium, the subscription will be managed on Google Play, not inside PeluChef: you can cancel it at any time from your subscriptions on Google Play. Canceling it does not delete your data; it will stay active until the end of the paid period and then your account will move to the Free plan.
What can't be deleted from the app
- The daily usage counters and technical usage records of the Artificial Intelligence assistant (without the content of your conversations), which we keep to prevent abuse, can't be deleted from the app: they are deleted automatically after 2 days. If an abuse block was applied to you, the record of that block is kept for as long as the block applies.
- Your usage events (the short notes of actions such as opening or finishing a recipe) can't be deleted one by one from the app: they are all deleted together when you delete the account.
- What you told the assistant is processed by Google under the terms of the Google service tier we use, and can't be deleted from the app. See section 4 of our Privacy Policy.
