Terms

These are the rules of Speakeasy, the Kitchen and the Bar at speakeasy.cooking, run by Happy Jewel LLC (“we”). By using either room you agree to them. They are short on purpose.

Accounts are by invitation

Speakeasy is open for now to a short guest list. Keeping books, notes and recipes, and talking to the barkeep or the cooks, need an account, and an account needs an invitation. One account per person, signed in with your own Google account; the same account opens both rooms. We may close an account that breaks these rules.

Use it fairly

• Don’t use Speakeasy to break the law or to harass anyone.
• Don’t add anything that isn’t yours to share, or anyone’s personal information without their consent.
• Don’t try to get around its limits, overload it, scrape it, or get into anything that isn’t yours.

What you write

What you write and add stays yours: your books, recipes, drinks, pages, photos and notes. You let us store it and show it back to you, and, when you share a book, show it to whoever has the link. Share only what you have the right to share, including recipes and photos from elsewhere.

Anyone can report a shared book. We read every report, and we may take down a shared book or a photo that breaks these rules.

The barkeep and the cooks

The barkeep and the cooks are fictional characters whose answers are written by an AI model. They can be wrong. Check anything that matters, allergies above all, before you rely on it.

The Kitchen

Cook with care

Recipes are offered for information. Check the ingredients for allergies, and follow safe practice for handling, cooking and storing food.

The Bar

A slot machine in looks only

The Bar plays like a slot machine, but nothing is staked and nothing is won. There is no money, no credit and no prize: every pull lands on a cocktail recipe.

The recipes are for adults of legal drinking age where you live. Please drink responsibly, and never drink and drive.

No warranty

Speakeasy is offered as it is, without any warranty. It may change, pause or close. As far as the law allows, we are not liable for any loss that comes from using it.

Leaving

You can delete your account at any time, from the Kitchen’s account sheet or the Bar’s Settings; the privacy page says what that removes.

The law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, in the United States. Any dispute about them, or about Speakeasy, goes to the state or federal courts in Cook County, Illinois.

Changes and questions

If these terms change, the date at the top changes with them. Questions go to [email protected], and questions about your data to [email protected].
