Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Tipsy Palates Restaurant & Bar (“the App,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) handles information when you use the mobile application.

Support Email: info@tipsypalatesrestaurant.store

By using the App, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information You May Provide

The App includes features that allow you to enter information when preparing restaurant-related requests or inquiries.

Depending on the feature you use, this information may include:

• Your name
• Email address
• Phone number
• Preferred reservation date
• Preferred reservation time
• Number of guests
• Seating preference
• Selected menu items
• Item quantities
• Pickup or dining preferences
• Dietary or menu-related questions
• Additional notes or special requests
• Other information you voluntarily enter into a request or inquiry form

You are responsible for deciding what information you choose to enter into the App.

2. Local Data Storage

Certain information is stored locally on your device to provide App functionality.

Local information may include:

• Favorite menu items
• Meal or order selections
• Item quantities
• Draft request details
• Reservation request summaries
• Dining or pickup inquiry summaries
• Request history
• Dining checklist selections
• Theme preference
• Onboarding completion status
• Basic App settings
• User-entered information that you choose to save

This local information is used to support App features and provide continuity between App sessions.

The App does not require you to create an online account.

3. Restaurant Requests and Email Communication

The App does not automatically submit restaurant requests, reservations, orders, inquiries, or personal information to a remote server.

When you choose to contact the restaurant or prepare a request, the App may create a pre-filled email containing information such as:

• Your contact details
• Selected menu items
• Request type
• Reservation preferences
• Estimated meal information
• Notes you entered

The App then opens a compatible email application installed on your device.

You must personally review and send the email.

The App does not automatically send the email on your behalf.

Once you choose to send an email, the message is processed by your selected email provider. Your email provider's own privacy policy and terms will apply to that communication.

Restaurant support emails are addressed to: info@tipsypalatesrestaurant.store

4. Information We Do Not Collect

The App is not designed to collect or store:

• Credit card numbers
• Debit card numbers
• Bank account information
• Cryptocurrency information
• Online payment credentials
• Government identification documents
• Medical records
• Precise location information
• Contact lists
• Call logs
• SMS messages
• Biometric information
• Passwords for an App account

The App does not provide online payment processing.

5. No User Accounts

Tipsy Palates Restaurant & Bar does not currently require account registration or login.

Because the App does not create an online account, there is no cloud-based App account containing personal profile information that must be maintained or deleted.

Users may remove locally stored App information using available clear-data functions in the App or through Android device settings.

6. Internet Access

The App may use an internet connection to load externally hosted content, including restaurant-related images.

Internet access may therefore be required for some images or visual content to display correctly.

If the device is offline or an image source is unavailable, the App may display a placeholder or fallback image instead.

7. Third-Party Image Providers

The App may load images from reputable external image-hosting or royalty-free image services, such as Unsplash or similar providers.

When your device requests an image from an external service, that provider may receive technical information normally associated with an internet request, such as an IP address or basic request information.

Such processing is controlled by the applicable third-party provider and is subject to that provider's privacy practices.

We do not use externally hosted images to intentionally collect personal information about users.

8. Third-Party Applications and Services

Some App features may interact with applications already installed on your device.

For example, when you select an email-support or request action, the App may open Gmail or another compatible email application.

The App does not control third-party applications.

Information you provide to third-party applications is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.

9. How Information Is Used

Information entered or stored in the App may be used to:

• Save favorite menu items
• Maintain meal selections
• Calculate estimated meal totals
• Prepare reservation requests
• Prepare pickup or dining inquiries
• Maintain local request history
• Restore user preferences
• Provide dining-planning tools
• Prepare email communications requested by the user
• Provide customer-support functionality
• Improve the usability of App features

We do not use App-entered information for financial services, lending, trading, gambling, medical diagnosis, or unrelated purposes.

10. Data Sharing

The App does not automatically transmit locally stored favorites, request history, meal selections, or other locally stored information to a proprietary remote server.

Information may leave your device when you deliberately choose an external action, such as sending a prepared email through your installed email application.

In that situation, information is shared according to your explicit action and the practices of your chosen email provider.

We do not sell users' personal information.

11. Data Retention

Locally stored information may remain on your device until:

• You delete an individual item or request where that option is available
• You use an App feature to clear stored information
• You clear the App's storage through Android settings
• You uninstall the App

Emails that you voluntarily send are retained according to the policies of your email provider and the receiving party.

12. Data Deletion

You may remove locally stored information using applicable delete or clear-history controls provided within the App.

You may also remove all App-local information by clearing the App's storage through your Android device settings or uninstalling the App.

Because the App does not currently provide online user accounts, there is no separate cloud account deletion process.

13. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the App's functionality.

The App is designed to minimize data collection and primarily stores lightweight user preferences and request summaries locally on the device.

However, no electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users should avoid entering unnecessary sensitive information into free-text fields.

14. Payment Information

The App does not process online payments.

We do not intentionally collect:

• Payment card information
• Banking credentials
• Wallet credentials
• Cryptocurrency credentials

Any final pricing, availability, payment arrangement, or restaurant transaction must be confirmed through the appropriate business process.

15. Estimated Prices

Meal totals or estimates displayed in the App are provided for planning purposes.

They do not represent guaranteed final restaurant charges.

Menu prices, taxes, item availability, and final charges may change and should be confirmed with the restaurant where necessary.

16. Reservations and Requests

Submitting or preparing a reservation request through the App does not guarantee:

• Table availability
• Reservation acceptance
• Pickup availability
• Menu availability
• Restaurant confirmation

The App does not falsely represent locally stored requests as confirmed remote bookings.

A request should only be treated as confirmed when confirmation is provided through an appropriate restaurant communication channel.

17. Food, Allergy, and Dietary Information

Menu descriptions, ingredient notes, or dietary information in the App are informational.

Users with food allergies, intolerances, or specific dietary requirements should confirm current ingredient and preparation information directly with the restaurant before ordering or consuming food.

The App does not provide medical advice or guarantee that a menu item is allergen-free.

18. Alcohol-Related Information

The restaurant's name and certain informational content may refer to bar or beverage services.

The App does not provide:

• Alcohol purchasing
• Alcohol delivery
• Alcohol payment processing
• Gambling or drinking games

Any alcoholic beverage availability, sale, service, or age requirement is subject to applicable law and restaurant policies.

19. Children's Privacy

The App is intended as a general restaurant information and dining-planning application.

We do not knowingly design the App to collect personal information from children.

If you believe that inappropriate personal information has been provided through an App-related communication, contact us using the support address below.

20. Advertising

The current App is not designed around behavioral advertising or the sale of user information.

If advertising or analytics services are introduced in a future version, this Privacy Policy and the applicable Google Play Data Safety disclosures should be updated before or when those practices become effective.

21. Analytics and Tracking

The current App concept does not require a dedicated analytics, advertising, or behavioral-tracking service.

If future versions introduce analytics or other third-party SDKs that collect information, this Privacy Policy will be updated to accurately describe those practices.

22. Permissions

The App requests only permissions necessary for implemented features.

Internet access may be used to retrieve externally hosted images.

The App does not require unnecessary access to sensitive device information such as contacts, SMS messages, call logs, precise location, or financial information.

If App permissions change in future versions, this Privacy Policy will be updated as appropriate.

23. Your Choices

You may:

• Choose whether to enter personal information in request forms
• Choose whether to save menu items as favorites
• Remove saved favorites
• Delete locally stored request information where supported
• Clear local App data through Android settings
• Choose whether to send a prepared email
• Select your preferred email application
• Uninstall the App at any time

24. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when App functionality, data practices, legal requirements, or Google Play requirements change.

When the Privacy Policy is updated, the effective date at the top of this page should also be updated.

Users are encouraged to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
