Privacy Policy

What we collect

Your email and a password, so we can keep your requests with your account. Your password is stored scrambled (hashed), never as plain text.

What you tell us in a request: the food you want, how much, how you'd like it, pickup or delivery, the date you need it, your ZIP code, and any notes you add.

If you arrived from one of our QR codes or invite links, the code itself, so we know which one brought you. It doesn't identify you.

We don't collect payment details, and we don't use advertising trackers on this site.

How we use it

To count demand and decide where to start and what to offer first.

To keep your requests with your account and to answer you if you contact us.

We may email you about your request or when SmartPalate opens near you. You can ask us to stop at any time.

We don't sell your personal information.

On your device

Your browser keeps your sign-in on your device so you stay signed in, and the site saves a copy of its pages so it opens quickly. Signing out or clearing your browser's site data removes them.

Who helps us

We use service providers to run the site and store its data (for example, our hosting and database providers). They hold it only to provide that service to us.

When we study demand, we look at what's being asked for and where (ZIP code and state), not at who you are.

Your choices and contact

You can ask to see, correct, or delete your account and requests, or to stop emails, by writing to smartpalate@yahoo.com.

We'll update this policy as SmartPalate grows, and change the date above when we do.
