We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time. Such changes, modifications, additions or deletions shall be effective immediately upon notice thereof, which may be given by means including, but not limited to issuing an e-mail to the e-mail address listed by registered users or posting the revised Policy on this page.

1. What information do we collect from you?

In order to better provide you with our ordering/delivery platform services, we collect two types of information about our users: Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information. Our primary goal in collecting information from you is to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience while using our site and App.

Personally Identifiable Information: This refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are. This information may include without limitation your first and last name, email address, physical address for delivery, and your payment information.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information: This refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. We gather certain information about you based upon where you visit on our site in several ways. This information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis. This information may include the site’s Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) that you just came from, which URL you go to next, what browser you are using, what type of device you are using, and your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address.

2. Where do we collect information from you and how do we use it?

We do not collect any Personally Identifiable Information about you unless you voluntarily provide it to us. You provide certain Personally Identifiable Information to us when you:

  1. Register for a user account;
  2. Place orders or request deliveries through our platform;
  3. sign up for special offers; or
  4. send e-mail messages, submit forms or transmit other information on or through the site or App.

In addition, we may also collect, or our third party ad server and/or content server may collect, certain Non-Personally Identifiable Information. We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our servers, software, to administer our site and to gather demographic information.

We will use your Personally Identifiable Information to provide our services to you. For example, we will use your payment and physical address to process your requests for food delivery. We will also use Personally Identifiable Information to enhance the operation of our site and software application, fill orders with local restaurants, improve our marketing and promotional efforts, statistically analyze site/App use, improve our product and service offerings, and customize our site’s and App’s content, layout, and services. We may use Personally Identifiable Information to deliver information to you and to contact you regarding administrative notices and regarding product or service offerings which we believe may be of interest to you. You will be given an opportunity to opt out of receiving promotional materials from us. We may also use Personally Identifiable Information to assist in dispute resolution, troubleshoot problems and enforce our agreements with you, including our Site Terms of Use and this Private Policy. While you may opt-out of receiving our promotional communications by taking the measures outlined in such communications, you may not opt-out of receiving administrative communications. 

3. With whom do we share your information?

We do not sell, trade, or rent your Personally Identifiable Information to others. We may utilize the services of third parties and provide some of our services through contractual arrangements with affiliates, services providers, partners and other third parties, and to facilitate such arrangements we reserve the right to share with such third parties Personally Identifiable Information, provided that such third party agree to not share the information. For example, we utilize third party credit card processing services and will share your credit card information with such services providers to facilitate payment. In addition, when you place an order through our Site or App, we share your credit card information with the restaurant fulfilling the order so that it can charge you for your particular order. We and our service providers and partners use your Personally Identifiable Information to operate our sites and to deliver their services.

Occasionally we may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide Personally Identifiable Information to the appropriate governmental authorities. We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information upon receipt of a court order, subpoena, or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. We fully cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.

We may also provide Non-Personally Identifiable Information about our customers’ traffic patterns, and related site information to third party advertisers, but these statistics do not include Personally Identifiable Information.

4. How can you update or correct your Personally Identifiable Information?

We believe you should have the ability to access and edit the Personally Identifiable Information that you have provided to us. You may change any of your Personally Identifiable Information in your account online at any time by logging on to your account and editing your information.

We encourage you to promptly update your Personally Identifiable Information if it changes. You may ask to have the information on your account deleted or removed; however, because we keep track of past transactions, you cannot delete information associated with past transactions on the site or App. In addition, it may be impossible to completely delete your information without some residual information because of backups.

5. What are your choices regarding collection, use, and distribution of your information?

We may, from time to time, send you e-mail regarding our services or about the services of affiliates or marketing/advertising partners. In addition, we may occasionally send you direct mail (including e-mail) about products and services that we feel may be of interest to you, such as offers from various local restaurants. You will have the ability to opt out of receiving such communications from us by following the instructions in such communications.

6. What security precautions are in place to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information?

At our site you can be assured that your Personally Identifiable Information is secure, consistent with current industry standards. The importance of security for all Personally Identifiable Information associated with our users is of utmost concern to us. Your Personally Identifiable Information is protected in several ways. Access by you to your Personally Identifiable Information is available through a password and unique customer ID selected by you. This password is encrypted. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, your Personally Identifiable Information resides on a secure server that only our selected personnel and contractors have access to via password. We encrypt your Personally Identifiable Information and thereby prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information when it is transmitted to us.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personally Identifiable Information, you acknowledge that: (a) there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet which are beyond our control; (b) the security, integrity and privacy of any and all information and data exchanged between you and us through this site or App cannot be guaranteed; and (c) any such information and data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party.

7. Do we use “cookies”?

When you use our site or App we may store cookies on your computer or device in order to facilitate and customize your use of our site/App. A cookie is a small data text file, which a website stores on your device that can later be retrieved to identify you to us. The cookies make your use of the site/App easier, make the site/App run more smoothly and help us to maintain a secure site. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of our site/App may not work properly in that case.

8. What should you know about privacy policies and data collection at any third party sites accessible from our site/App?

Our site and/or App may feature links to third parties, such as the websites of local restaurants. Except as otherwise discussed in this Privacy Policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. Other sites accessible through our site or App have their own privacy policies and data collection, use and disclosure practices. Please consult each site’s privacy policy.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, the practices of this site, or your dealings with this site, please contact us by sending us an email to info@clearlyexpress.com.
