Terms and conditions

By using CookMatey you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law.

Using CookMatey

CookMatey is provided for personal, non-commercial use. Please don't misuse the site: no attempts to break its security, overload it, scrape it at scale or use it for anything unlawful.

Your account

• Keep your password private and tell us if you think someone else has accessed your account.
• You're responsible for activity on your account.
• We may suspend accounts that break these terms. You can delete your account at any time from your profile page.

Reviews and content you post

Reviews must be honest, about your own experience, and free of offensive, misleading or unlawful content. All reviews are checked before they appear, and we may decline or remove any review. You keep ownership of what you write, but you give CookMatey permission to display it on the site.

Recipes, costs and nutrition

• Cost estimates are calculated from typical Australian ingredient prices that we update by hand. They are not live supermarket prices, and what you pay will vary.
• Calories and timings are approximate and depend on your ingredients and equipment.
• Allergies and diets: always check ingredient labels. Dietary tags are a guide only and can't account for cross-contamination or individual needs.

Food safety

Cooking involves heat, sharp tools and food safety risks. Follow safe food handling practices, cook meat, poultry and eggs thoroughly, and refrigerate leftovers promptly. Our guide to storing leftovers is a good place to start.

Intellectual property

CookMatey's recipes, guides, text and design are owned by CookMatey or used with permission. Photographs are used under their licences. You're welcome to print recipes for personal use and share links, but please don't republish our content without permission.

Availability and liability

We work to keep CookMatey accurate and available, but we can't guarantee it will always be error-free or uninterrupted. To the extent permitted by law, CookMatey isn't liable for loss arising from your use of the site.
