On the Device
The app icon appears as a recipe archive. Notifications are rewritten in transit — "New match nearby" becomes "Your sauce recipe has been saved." One long-press on the icon and the entire experience becomes Nonna's Kitchen.
The Doctrine
Five layers. Zero fingerprints. One very convincing recipe blog.
Layer 01

Layer 02
All charges appear as "Nonna's Kitchen Subscription" from a modest LLC registered to a modest strip mall. No mention of romance, matching, or membership. Ever.
Layer 03
We do not send marketing emails. We do not send "we miss you" emails. We do not send anything that could be misread over somebody's shoulder in a kitchen.
Layer 04
Photos are stripped of location metadata on upload. Messages are encrypted at rest. Deleted means deleted — not archived, not cached, not recoverable by anybody's cousin who works in IT.
Layer 05
If you are in an awkward room, hit the Panic Button. Site becomes recipes. Sound becomes an audiobook about braising. You were looking up Sunday gravy. That is the story. Stick to it.
