Freecost Terms of Service
Last Updated: June 18, 2026
By using Freecost (“Freecost”), the website at freefoodcost.com, or the Freecost mobile app, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.
The short version
Freecost is recipe-costing software for restaurants. It helps you cost recipes and menu items, keep ingredient prices current, and track food-cost margins. The numbers it produces are tools to inform your decisions, not guarantees — you're responsible for the prices and data you enter.
Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old, or of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to create an account.
Your account
You're responsible for who you invite to your kitchen. Invited members can read and (depending on their role) write to your catalog. You can remove anyone at any time from your team settings. Each member is bound by these Terms.
You're responsible for the accuracy of what you enter. Freecost stores and computes on it; we don't verify it.
Acceptable use
Don't use Freecost to abuse, harass, or harm anyone. Don't try to access accounts that aren't yours. Don't scrape, reverse-engineer, or attempt to disrupt the service. We may suspend accounts that violate these rules.
Pricing
Freecost is free today. We'll give clear notice (at least 30 days, by email) before introducing any paid features, and any data you've already entered stays available regardless of your subscription state.
Your content
You own everything you enter into Freecost. You grant us a non-exclusive license to host, store, display, and process it as needed to run the service for you and your kitchen members. How we currently handle your data — and what we will do if our practices change — lives in our Privacy Policy.
Service evolution
Freecost is actively developed. The product, the pricing, the partners and subprocessors we work with, and any advertising or sponsored content we may eventually show can change over time. When our data practices change in a way that meaningfully affects you, we'll follow the notice and consent rules in the Privacy Policy under Future changes— including at least 14 days' advance notice (30 days for changes that introduce advertising or new third-party data disclosures), the opt-outs required by applicable law, and affirmative opt-in where law requires it.
Service availability
We use reasonable effort to keep Freecost running and your data safe. We don't guarantee 100% uptime, and the app is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, to the extent allowed by law.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, Freecost and Brobata, LLC are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss (including lost profits or pricing decisions) arising from your use of, or inability to use, the service. Where local law doesn't allow excluding implied warranties, our liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months prior, which while Freecost is free is $0.
Termination
You can delete your account at any time (Settings → Account → Delete account). We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, with notice when reasonable.
Changes
We may update these Terms. We'll email you about meaningful changes at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after the effective date counts as agreement.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes are resolved in the state or federal courts of Travis County, Texas (or your local jurisdiction if a consumer-protection law mandates it).
