Data Privacy & Security
We may share personal information with the vendors and agencies that support the programs you have decided to use in our app. For example, appropriate personal information, such as your name and physical address, would be shared with a food provider and a delivery company to support your food order. None of our vendors or agencies will ever use that information to attempt to market anything to you.

We may collect non-personal information via a variety of means, including surveys, satisfaction questionnaires, etc. We also use automated means to collect various types of non-personal information (data in a form that does not support direct association with any specific person or individual). When gathered, this data, if used, is used in the aggregate, and not in a manner that is intended to identify you personally. This type of aggregate information may be shared with third parties at any time.
