Terms of service

Last updated 20 Sep 2026

LegalTerms of service

1. Acceptance of terms

IngredientSubstitutes.com (the "Website") is operated by Click Clack Labs LLC, a company based in New York, United States ("we", "us"). By accessing and using the Website, you accept and agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the Website. You must be at least 13 years old to use the Website.

2. Cooking information, not professional advice

The Website gives general information about swapping one cooking ingredient for another. It is not medical, nutritional, dietary, or food-safety advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.

  • Allergies and intolerances: a substitute may contain, or be processed alongside, allergens such as nuts, milk, eggs, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish, or sesame. Labels such as "dairy-free", "gluten-free", "nut-free", or "vegan" describe a typical product, not the one in your kitchen. Always read the label of the product you are using, and if you cook for someone with an allergy, a medical condition, or a restricted diet, check with them or with a medical professional first.
  • Food safety: a substitution can change how a recipe needs to be cooked, stored, or preserved. This matters most in canning, curing, fermenting, and recipes that rely on acidity, sugar, salt, or alcohol for safety. Follow tested food-safety guidance for those.
  • Results: ratios are starting points for home cooking. Ovens, brands, altitude, and humidity vary, and we do not guarantee that any substitution will work in your recipe.

You use the information on the Website at your own risk.

3. Use license

You may view, print, and share links to the materials on IngredientSubstitutes.com for personal, non-commercial use. This is a license, not a transfer of title, and under it you may not:

  • republish, sell, or redistribute the materials, or a substantial part of them
  • copy the materials systematically or by automated means in order to build a competing product, dataset, or service
  • interfere with the Website, its security, or the advertising and measurement on it
  • remove any copyright or other proprietary notations from the materials

The text, design, and data of the Website are owned by Click Clack Labs LLC and are protected by copyright and other laws.

4. Advertising and third-party content

The Website is free to use and is paid for by advertising, which is sold and served by third parties, including our advertising partner Journey by Mediavine. Advertisements are not chosen by us individually, and their appearance on the Website is not an endorsement of the advertiser or of its products or claims. Any dealings you have with an advertiser are between you and that advertiser. No substitute is listed, ranked, or recommended on the Website because someone paid for it.

Some pages or advertising units may contain affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

How advertising and analytics use cookies, and the choices you have, are described in our privacy policy, which forms part of these terms.

5. Disclaimer

The materials on IngredientSubstitutes.com are provided on an 'as is' basis. IngredientSubstitutes.com makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties including without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights.

6. Limitations

To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event shall IngredientSubstitutes.com, Click Clack Labs LLC, or its suppliers be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, personal injury, illness, allergic reaction, spoiled food, loss of data or profit, or business interruption) arising out of the use or inability to use the materials on IngredientSubstitutes.com, even if IngredientSubstitutes.com or an authorized representative has been notified orally or in writing of the possibility of such damage. Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you. If you are a consumer, you keep any rights that the law of the country where you live says cannot be taken away by contract.

7. Accuracy of materials

The materials appearing on IngredientSubstitutes.com could include technical, typographical, or factual errors. IngredientSubstitutes.com does not warrant that any of the materials on its website are accurate, complete, or current, and may change them at any time without notice. If you find an error, please tell us.

8. Links

IngredientSubstitutes.com has not reviewed all of the sites linked from the Website, including those reached through advertisements, and is not responsible for the contents of any such site. The inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement. Use of any linked website is at your own risk.

9. Modifications

IngredientSubstitutes.com may revise these terms at any time by updating this page and the "Last updated" date above. By continuing to use the Website you agree to be bound by the then current version.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York and the applicable federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of these terms or your use of the Website will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York, and you submit to the jurisdiction of those courts. If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
