2. How We Use Your Information
Having said that, a privacy policy is a statement that discloses some or all of the ways a website collects, uses, discloses, processes, and manages the data of its visitors and customers. It usually also includes a statement regarding the website’s commitment to protecting its visitors’ or customers’ privacy, and an explanation about the different mechanisms the website is implementing in order to protect privacy.
Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations of what must be included in a Privacy Policy. You are responsible to make sure you are following the relevant legislation to your activities and location.
3. Photos and Family Updates
One of the special parts of Stay for Dinner is helping families feel connected, even when they can't be there in person.
Following a visit, a companion may share a brief summary of the evening and, with permission, photographs capturing special moments.
Photographs will only be taken with the consent of the person being photographed or their legally authorized representative, as appropriate.
These updates are intended for authorized family members or designated contacts. We will not use identifiable photographs or personal stories for advertising, social media, or promotional purposes without separate permission.
Guests may decline photographs at any time without affecting their experience.
4. Sharing Your Information
We may share information with:
-
Dinner companions: Information necessary to prepare for and provide a personalized experience.
-
Service providers: Companies that support payment processing, website hosting, scheduling, email delivery, and other business operations.
-
Authorized contacts: Family members or individuals designated to receive booking information or visit updates.
-
Legal authorities: When required by applicable law or reasonably necessary to protect rights and safety.
We do not sell customer contact information to third-party mailing lists.
We expect anyone handling personal information on our behalf to use it only for authorized purposes and to maintain appropriate safeguards.
5. Protecting Your Information
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse, or loss.
Access to sensitive customer details is limited to individuals who need the information to perform their responsibilities.
Although we work to safeguard your information, no website, electronic communication, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
6. Payment Information
Payments may be processed through secure third-party payment providers.
Payment processors handle payment details according to their own privacy and security policies. Stay for Dinner receives the transaction information necessary to confirm purchases, maintain records, and provide customer support.
7. Cookies and Website Analytics
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support functionality, understand website performance, and improve the visitor experience.
Depending on the technologies enabled on our website, third-party analytics or advertising services may also collect information about website activity.
You can manage certain cookies through your browser settings and any privacy controls made available on our website.
8. Email and Communications
We may contact you about reservations, purchases, gift deliveries, scheduling, and other service-related matters.
If you choose to receive promotional emails, you may unsubscribe using the instructions included in those messages.
Unsubscribing from promotional communications will not prevent essential messages relating to an existing reservation or purchase.
9. Information Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete it or otherwise dispose of it securely.
