About

Recyclecode is a fully local, hand-curated and web-verified packaging/recycling-symbol reference. resin_code_info gives one plastic resin code's (1-7) full detail: the actual material, common product examples, and whether it's commonly accepted curbside; resin_code_list shows all seven at a glance. symbol_info explains any other common packaging symbol — the Mobius loop/chasing-arrows triangle, the Green Dot, the compostable seedling logo, the Tidyman figure, the FSC logo, the European PAP paper code, and the European GL glass code; symbol_list names them all. identify_from_description matches a plain-language description of an item or a symbol to the closest resin code(s) or symbol(s). curbside_check states plainly whether a resin code, abbreviation, or material keyword is commonly recyclable curbside. compostable_vs_recyclable explains that specific, commonly confused distinction and the industrial-vs-home-compost difference. mobius_vs_green_dot directly contrasts the two most-confused symbols. search does free-text keyword search across everything, and glossary defines terms like wishcycling, MRF, contamination, downcycling and extended producer responsibility. Cross-checked against Wikipedia's resin-identification-code article, US EPA plastics guidance and the EU packaging materials-marking convention as of build date — always defer to your own municipal program's list for what it actually accepts. Keyless; fully local; zero upstream calls; nothing stored.

Sources: Resin codes 1-7 cross-checked against Wikipedia's 'Resin identification code' article and US EPA plastics guidance; paper (PAP) and glass (GL) codes reflect the EU packaging materials-marking convention; Mobius loop, Green Dot, seedling/EN 13432, Tidyman and FSC descriptions cross-checked against multiple packaging-industry references. Hand-curated as of build date; fully local, zero upstream calls.

What Recycle Code is for

What the numbers 1-7 on plastic actually mean, plus the Green Dot, seedling logo and other packaging symbols.

What it does

Recyclecode is a fully local, hand-curated and web-verified packaging/recycling-symbol reference. resin_code_info gives one plastic resin code's (1-7) full detail: the actual material, common product examples, and whether it's commonly accepted curbside; resin_code_list shows all seven at a glance. symbol_info explains any other common packaging symbol — the Mobius loop/chasing-arrows triangle, the Green Dot, the compostable seedling logo, the Tidyman figure, the FSC logo, the European PAP paper code, and the European GL glass code; symbol_list names them all. identify_from_description matches a plain-language description of an item or a symbol to the closest resin code(s) or symbol(s). curbside_check states plainly whether a resin code, abbreviation, or material keyword is commonly recyclable curbside. compostable_vs_recyclable explains that specific, commonly confused distinction and the industrial-vs-home-compost difference. mobius_vs_green_dot directly contrasts the two most-confused symbols. search does free-text keyword search across everything, and glossary defines terms like wishcycling, MRF, contamination, downcycling and extended producer responsibility. Cross-checked against Wikipedia's resin-identification-code article, US EPA plastics guidance and the EU packaging materials-marking convention as of build date — always defer to your own municipal program's list for what it actually accepts. Keyless; fully local; zero upstream calls; nothing stored.

What it is not

Not a substitute for your own municipal recycling program's accepted-materials list, which is always the final authority on what actually gets recycled where you live — codes and symbols describe a material or a general practice, not a promise about any specific curbside bin. Not affiliated with any standards body, municipality, or brand it may factually mention. Fully local, zero upstream calls, nothing stored.

Privacy policy

Recycle Code — Privacy Policy

Effective 25 September 2026. Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us"), Menlo Park, California.

What Recycle Code is. Recycle Code is a connector (an MCP server and REST API) that AI assistants and personal agents call on your behalf to look up what a packaging or recycling symbol actually means — plastic resin codes 1-7, the Green Dot, the seedling logo and more. You interact with your assistant; the assistant sends us only the arguments needed for that one lookup.

What we receive. The arguments of each tool call, the technical headers needed to serve the request (an IP address or a client identifier supplied by the assistant, and a Pro API key if you have one), and standard server logs.

Everything is answered from a bundled, hand-curated reference file and nothing is stored. No request is forwarded to any third party — there is no upstream call at all, live or otherwise — and no query is logged in request bodies, recorded, or used to train anything.

What we do not receive or store. We do not receive your conversation with the assistant or your name, and we do not build a profile from your queries: each request is answered independently and nothing carries over between requests. Rate-limit counters (a client identifier and timestamps) are held in memory for at most 24 hours. Hosting-provider access logs, which contain IP addresses and request paths but not request bodies, are retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Sub-processors. None — the entire dataset is bundled with the server and answered locally. Hosting: Vercel (United States regions).

Legal bases and your rights. Our processing is necessary to provide the service you request through your assistant. Because we store no personal data beyond short-lived logs, requests to access, correct or delete personal data are usually satisfied automatically; you can still contact agent@connectorbay.com and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell or share personal information and do not use your data to train models.

Children. Recycle Code is a general-audience service operated by the adult using the assistant.

Changes. We will post changes here with a new effective date.

Terms of service

Back to top

Recycle Code — Terms of Service

Effective 25 September 2026. These terms govern use of the Recycle Code connector ("the Service") operated by Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us").

  1. The Service. Recycle Code returns a hand-curated, web-verified packaging/recycling-symbol reference: plastic resin identification codes 1-7, the Mobius loop, the Green Dot, the compostable seedling logo, the Tidyman figure, the FSC logo, and European paper (PAP) and glass (GL) material codes. It is accessed through an AI assistant or directly over MCP or HTTP.
  2. A reference, not a guarantee. Recycle Code is an independent reference, not affiliated with or endorsed by any brand, municipality, or standards body it may factually mention. It does not know your local municipal program's specific rules, and its curbside-acceptance notes are general patterns, not a promise for your bin.
  3. Content varies. Rules, terminology and conventions described here reflect commonly-cited general practice; local house rules, regional variants, and official governing-body rulebooks may differ.
  4. Acceptable use. Automated use within the published rate limits is welcome.
  5. Availability. The Service is provided "as is" without warranty. We may change, limit or discontinue it at any time.
  6. Data. Our Privacy Policy describes what we process. In short: your query is answered from a bundled reference file, and nothing is stored.
  7. Pro keys. Optional Pro API keys are issued at our discretion, are personal to the holder and may be revoked for abuse.
  8. Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Unify Dynamics LLC is not liable for any loss arising from use of or reliance on the Service. Our total liability is limited to US $100.
  9. Governing law. California law; venue in San Mateo County, California.
  10. Contact. Unify Dynamics LLC · agent@connectorbay.com · https://connectorbay.com/recyclecode
