It is important that you read this privacy policy together with any other privacy notice or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing information about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data.

• Identity Data, which includes name or other similar identifiers.
• Contact Data, which includes address, email address and telephone numbers.
• Financial Data, which includes credit card, debit card or other payment card details.

Personal Data may be freely provided by the User, or, in case of Usage Data, collected automatically when using Truphle Inc.

Unless specified otherwise, all Data requested by Truphle Inc. is for Truphle Inc. to provide its services. In cases where Truphle Inc. specifically states that some Data is not mandatory, Users are free not to communicate this Data without consequences to the availability or the functioning of the Service.

Users who are uncertain about which Personal Data is mandatory are welcome to contact the Owner. Any use of Cookies – or of other tracking tools – by Truphle Inc. or by the owners of third-party services used by Truphle Inc. serves the purpose of providing the Service required by the User, in addition to any other purposes described in the present document and in the Cookie Policy, if available. Users are responsible for any third-party Personal Data obtained, published or shared through Truphle Inc. and confirm that they have the third party’s consent to provide the Data to the Owner.

Using Our Services: As you interact with our Services, we may automatically collect Technical Data and Usage Data about your use of our Services. Some of the ways in which we may collect information are further described below:

• Cookies and other technologies:The Services may use cookies, a type of technology that installs a small amount of information on a website user’s computer or other device to permit a website to, for example, recognize future visits using that computer or device. The Services may use other similar technologies (including, without limitation, tracking pixels, as described further below, and other anonymous identifiers) to gather information about you, such as IP addresses and location data, to customize your visit, to enable us to enhance our Services, or for other purposes. 
• Interest-Based Advertising:We may engage third-party vendors to use your information in connection with their own information to deliver targeted advertising to you when you visit our website or other websites. Cookies, described above, may be used in this process. For example, if you are searching for information on a particular product, our vendor may cause an advertisement to appear on other websites you view with information on that product. This form of advertising is called “Behavioral Advertising.” We believe that such advertising is helpful because you will see ads that are relevant to your interests. However, if you would like to opt out of these interest-based advertisements, please see the “CUSTOMER CHOICES” section below.
• Clickstream Data:When you use the internet, websites collect information about the type of computer and browsing software you use and the address of the website from which you linked to the website. The Services may collect and use clickstream data as a form of aggregate information to anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page of our website, how visitors navigate throughout the website and how we may tailor our website to better meet the needs of visitors. This information may be used to improve our Services. Any collection or use of clickstream data will be anonymous and aggregated and will not intentionally contain any information about you.
• Location Data:When you give us consent, we will collect the latitude and longitude coordinates of your device when you are searching restaurant availability. We use this information to help us improve the relevance of search results and streamline the restaurant reservation processes. This information is only collected while the app is running. We also use general geographic data to identify the city a user is visiting to make the Services more relevant. If you would like to opt out of location tracking, please see the “CUSTOMER CHOICES” section below.

Collection of personal information/personal data from third-party sources: We also collect personal information/personal data about you from various third parties and public sources.

• If you register for our Services using Facebook, Twitter or other social media sites, we will import your information from those social media sites
• When a new restaurant joins us, we will collect any information that restaurant has about prior guests and import it into the restaurant’s guestbook on our Services.
• We also obtain information about you from restaurants who partner with us, including notes, tags, and other metadata about your dining habits and experiences.

Data Relating To Children

Our Services are intended for those 17 years old and older. We don’t intentionally gather data from anybody younger than 17 (or such other age as might be restricted under local law). If we are made aware that we have received such information, or any information in violation of our policy, we will use reasonable efforts to locate and remove that information from our records.

Data Retention

We will only retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for your information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your information, the purposes for which we process your information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances we may anonymize information about you (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use and retain this information indefinitely without further notice to you. If your account is closed, we may take steps to delete certain information, but we reserve our ability to retain and access the data for so long as required to comply with applicable laws. We will continue to use and disclose information in accordance with this privacy policy.

Data Security

We will keep your information confidential and limit access to your information to those who specifically need it to conduct their business activities, except as otherwise permitted by applicable law.
