TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT & HOW WE COLLECT IT
We, along with any third-party companies or individuals with whom we work, may collect information directly and voluntarily from you when you use the Service or contact us directly.

You should review the Restaurant’s privacy policy and contact each Restaurant directly to respond to your questions regarding their storage and use of your payment data.

OUR DATA RETENTION PRACTICES
In general, we will only retain personal information for as long as you are using the Service or as otherwise needed to provide you the Service or complete other purposes described in this Policy. We may also retain and use your Personal Information as necessary to satisfy any legal requirements, including enforcing our rights and agreements and resolving disputes. We will try to delete your information promptly consistent with these data retention practices. However, there might be some technical delay involved in deleting information from our servers, and backed-up versions might still exist after deletion. In addition, we do not delete any data that has been rendered completely anonymous or maintained in de-identified, aggregated form with data of other users (such as usage trend reports).
To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
