    Date Last Modified: December 8th, 2020

    We respect and value your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the information we collect from you when you visit our website www.salata.com or download our app (the website and app, together, “Website”) and our restaurants, how we use that information, and under what circumstances we disclose it. It will also give you more information about how to manage the personal information that you provide to us. This Privacy Policy should be read in conjunction with the Terms of Service located on the Website.

    the information we collect

    When you use our Website or visit our restaurants, we may receive and collect certain information. The information that we may receive and collect depends on what you do when you visit our Website or restaurants.

    Automatically Collected Information

    Some information is automatically received and sometimes collected from you when you visit our Website. This information may include some or all of the following items: the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using and the IP address of your Internet Service Provider; the type and version of Internet browser software you use and your operating system; the date and time you access our site, the length of your stay and the specific pages, images, video or forms that you access while visiting the site; the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to our Website, and if applicable, the search engine that referred you and any search strings or phrases that you entered into the search engine to find this site; and demographic information concerning the country of origin of your computer and the language(s) used by it.

    We use this information to monitor the usage of our Website, assess its performance, ensure technological compatibility with your computer, understand the relative importance of the information provided on our Website and conduct statistical analyses on visitors’ usage patterns and other aggregated data. We also want to better understand the interests of our users in order to customize the user experience on the Website and/or other sites users may visit, including through behavioral advertising on our Website as well as other sites, including on social media.

    Information Collected via Cookies and other Web Technologies

    “Cookies” are small files or records that are placed on your computer’s hard drive to distinguish you from other visitors to our Website. The use of cookies is a standard practice among websites to collect or track information about your activities while using our Website. A cookie may enable the website owner to track how a visitor navigates through its website and the areas in which they show interest. Information gathered may include date and time of visits, pages viewed, time spent at the site, and the website visited just before and just after a visit to our Website.

    Cookies can be set to expire: (1) on a specified date; (2) after a specific period of time; (3) when a transaction has been completed; or (4) when a user turns off his/her Internet browser. A cookie that is erased from memory when a visitor’s Internet browser closes is called a “session” cookie. Cookies that expire based on a time set by the Web server are called “persistent” cookies.

    Our Website may use both “session cookies” and “permanent cookies.” Most people do not know that cookies are being placed on their computers when they visit our Website or most websites because browsers are typically set to accept cookies. You can choose to have your browser warn you every time a cookie is being sent to you or you can turn off cookie placements. If you refuse cookies, there may be parts of our Website that may not function properly.

    Information Collected Using Pixel Tags or Clear GIFs

    Pixel Tags or Clear GIFs, also known as Web Beacons or Web Bugs, are transparent graphical images placed on a website. We use these items on our Website to permit us, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).

    Social Media Pages

    We operate social media pages on third party networks. When you visit our social media pages, data is processed both by us and the applicable social media provider. Social media providers are unaffiliated with us, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of social media providers. Social media providers have their own terms of use and privacy policies, and we encourage you to review those policies whenever you visit their websites or interact with their platforms.

    The use of the foregoing web technologies may fall under the definition of “sale” of information under the California Consumer Protection Act. Therefore, a, ‘Do Not Sell My Personal Information’ link is available on our home page.

    Information You May Actively Submit Through Our Website

    For most of the browsing on our Website, we neither require nor collect “User Information” (for example, your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and credit card information). You can browse our Website and take as much time as you want to review our services without having to submit such User Information. In the following instances, however, we do need you to actively submit User Information when: (1) you want to contact us via electronic means or website submission; (2) you purchase a gift card or check the balance of a gift card; (3) you utilize online ordering; (4) you utilize online reservations; (5) you enter a contest or sweepstakes; or (6) you join our customer loyalty programs and/or email lists. E-mail or other forms of electronic communication, including website submission, are not ever fully secure or error-free. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of your data, and we are not responsible for processes and networks that we do not control. Users assume the risk of security breaches and the consequences resulting from them. Please be careful in deciding what information you send to us via email or over the Internet.

    Information You May Actively Submit In Our Restaurants

    When visiting our restaurants, we collect “Customer Information” (for example, your name, address, phone number, e-mail address and payment card information if applicable) when: (1) you dine with us and pay with a payment card; (2) you want to fill out customer comment cards; (3) you enter a contest or sweepstakes; or (4) you join our customer loyalty programs and/or email lists.

    security

    We strive to maintain internal controls and procedures to ensure that the Information (as defined below) you share with use is handled in a safe, secure and responsible manner. Whether you are making purchases on our Website or in our restaurants, we have security measures to help protect against loss, unauthorized access and alteration of the information in our control. We will only disclose such Information to employees and authorized service providers who require such information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. Our databases are protected by physical, technical, and procedural measures that restrict access to authorized person in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Although no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed 100% secure, and we cannot ensure against any loss, misuse, unauthorized disclosure, alteration, or destruction of data, we take reasonable precautions to prevent such unfortunate occurrences. Our information systems are maintained behind a firewall to isolate them from access by other networks connected to the Internet, and access to Information is granted only to employees who need the information to perform a specific job.

    Because your credit card security is a high priority, we have taken numerous steps to ensure your payment information is processed confidentially. Our Website use is secured during transmission using industry standard e-commerce security technology such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. We use SSL technology to prevent such information from being intercepted and read as it is transmitted over the Internet. Once this User Information is received by us and/or our third party processing merchants, it is stored in a format that is masked and/or encrypted.

    We understand if you do not feel comfortable sending your credit card information to us over the Internet and are more than happy to accept your payment when you visit us at one of our restaurant locations or via the phone.

    personal information about children

    Our Website is targeted primarily for use by adults. We do not currently market to or create special areas for use by children. Accordingly, we do not knowingly collect age identifying information, nor do we knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 years. However, we hereby advise all visitors to our site under the age of 13 not to disclose or provide any personally identifiable information on our Website. In the event that we discover that a child under the age of 13 has provided personally identifiable information to us, in accordance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (please see the Federal Trade Commission’s website at www.ftc.gov/kidzprivacy for more information about this Act), we will delete the child’s personally identifiable information from our files to the extent technologically possible.

    e-mail communications

    When you send an email to us, or provide your email address to us, you are communicating with us electronically and consent to receive communication from us electronically. We may retain the content of the email, your email address, and our response in order to service your needs. We may use the data that you provide to send you email or correspondence via other means.

    how we use and share user information and customer information

    We may use User Information and Customer Information (collectively, “Information”) that you actively submit to better assist you when you visit or call us again and to send you special offers for our restaurant services that may be of interest to you. We do this by general marketing communications for our services, including by regular mail and e-mail, (collectively, “Marketing Communications”). Unless you “opt-out” through opportunities available to you through our Marketing Communications, we may send you Marketing Communications. You may also “opt-out” of future Marketing Communications by following the instructions provided in this Privacy Policy under Access to and Managing Your User Information.

    Except where we otherwise obtain your express permission, we share your information with third parties only under the limited circumstances stated below:

    1. Information is subject to disclosure in response to judicial or other governmental subpoenas, warrants and court orders served on us in accordance with their terms, as otherwise required by applicable law, or in response to requests by law enforcement;
    2. Information is subject to disclosure to protect our rights or property, protect its legitimate business interests, to enforce the provisions of our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, and/or to prevent harm to you or others;
    3. Information may be disclosed to and exchanged with carefully selected third-party service providers in order to provide services to you, such as to fulfill gift card orders (U.S. Postal Service, Canada Post, or other delivery companies we or you select); fulfill online orders and deliveries (for example, DoorDash); provide customer service; send or email Marketing Communications; provide personalized and targeted offers, maintain our customer loyalty program, user accounts and database and other programs; monitor the activity of our Website; conduct surveys; and administer contests or sweepstakes. We will share your Information with our carefully selected third-party services providers on a confidential basis. These service providers are prohibited from using your Information for any purpose other than providing our services.
    4. Information may be disclosed to process credit card transactions. In this case these transactions are handled by established third party banking, processing agents and distribution institutions. They receive the information needed to verify and authorize your credit card or other payment information and to process your order. In addition, we may disclose Information to third parties to verify the authenticity of any financial transaction involving our company or its subsidiaries.
    5. Information may be disclosed and transferred if our company or its business is sold or offered for sale to another company or person(s), if a petition for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Laws is filed by or against us, or if we become subject to an order of appointment of a trustee or receiver.

    what you need to do to protect your information

Please secure your login credentials and do not share them with others. The Federal Trade Commission’s website, www.ftc.gov, also offers useful information about how to protect personally identifiable information provided to a website.
