3. Automatic Data Collection and Data Technologies

3.1 Data Technologies Various technologies are used to automatically collect information, such as cookies, local shared objects, and web beacons (collectively, “Data Technologies”). These may be used by us or by third parties on our behalf to connect information about you from different sources, devices, and mobile applications.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Tools We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics and Splunk) to collect information about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns. This statistical data helps us maintain security, troubleshoot technical issues, and improve Service functionality.

3.3 Specific Technologies Used:

Cookies (or browser cookies): Small files placed on your device. You may refuse them via browser settings, but this may limit your access to certain parts of the Service.
Global Privacy Control (GPC): We recognize and process GPC signals. If transmitted, we treat them as a valid request to opt-out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal info for targeted advertising.
Web Beacons: Small electronic files (clear gifs, pixel tags) used to count users who visited pages or opened emails and for system/server integrity verification.
Local Shared Objects: Certain features of our Service may use locally stored objects to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation. These are managed differently than browser cookies.
Log Files & SDKs: We automatically log information such as your IP address, browser type, and "clickstream" data. In our mobile applications, we use Software Development Kits (SDKs) to collect information regarding app performance and user interaction.
reCAPTCHA: We have implemented Google reCAPTCHA on certain products to prevent malicious software from engaging in abusive activities. You acknowledge that Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply to the data collected by this feature.

3.4 Third-Party Use of Data Technologies Some content or applications on the Service are served by third parties, including advertisers, ad networks, and content providers. These third parties may use cookies alone or in conjunction with web beacons to collect information about you when you use our Service. We do not control these third parties' tracking technologies.

At this time, we do not respond to or alter our practices when our systems receive a Do Not Track signal from a user’s web browser.

6. Security, Retention, and Data Responsibility

6.1 Security Practices and Risks. We implement security measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, including encryption, firewalls, and secure socket layer (SSL) technology. However, these measures do not guarantee that your information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of such firewalls and secure server software. By using our Service, you acknowledge that you understand and agree to assume these risks, and we shall not be responsible for the circumvention of any of the Service’s privacy settings or security measures.

6.2 Data Responsibility & Backups. Although we perform regular routine backups of data, you are solely responsible for all data that you transmit or that relates to any activity you have undertaken using the Service. You agree that we shall have no liability to you for any loss or corruption of any such data, and you hereby waive any right of action against us arising from any such loss or corruption of such data.

6.3 Data Retention Practices. In general, we only retain personal information for as long as you are using the Service or as needed to satisfy legal requirements, enforce our agreements, and resolve disputes.

Financial & Tax Compliance: Notwithstanding a request for deletion, we are required by law to retain Transaction Information (including order history, payment metadata, and tax records) for a minimum of seven (7) years to comply with tax audits, financial regulations, and "Know Your Customer" (KYC) requirements.
Technical Delays: We aim to delete information promptly, but there may be technical delays in removing data from our servers, and backed-up versions may still exist after deletion. * Anonymized Data: We do not delete data that has been rendered anonymous or maintained in de-identified, aggregated form.
Retention Factors: To determine retention periods, we consider the sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized disclosure, and applicable legal requirements.

7. Your Privacy Rights

7.1 General Rights. We aim to provide transparency and accessibility. Depending on your jurisdiction (including the EEA and various U.S. states), you may request:

Access & Portability: A copy of your data in a structured, electronic format.
Correction & Deletion: Request that we fix or delete your data.
Objection & Restriction: Object to our processing or request that we stop processing your data.

7.2 Limitations on Deletion. We may not be able to delete your data except by also deleting your account. We cannot accommodate requests that violate law or cause information to be incorrect.

You must contact the Restaurant or Reseller directly for such requests.

7.3 Right to Opt-Out (CCPA "Sale" Disclosure). The CCPA defines “sale” very broadly. The transfer of your information to third parties to facilitate your orders or provide the Service (as described in Section 5) may be construed as a sale under California law. We do not sell your personal information to third parties for independent marketing purposes. We only share information with the third parties necessary to process your transaction or as otherwise detailed in Section 5. You may opt-out of this "sale," though doing so will prevent us from processing your orders.

7.4 Exercising Your Rights & Verification.

Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
Verification Process: To protect your data, we must verify your identity. We may require first/last name, email address, phone number, address, and the amount and date of your last transaction.
Authorized Agents: California residents may designate an authorized agent via written permission or power of attorney. We will still require you to verify your identity directly with us.

7.5 California-Specific Rights.

Shine the Light: Residents may request, once a year, information about categories of information disclosed to third parties for direct marketing.
Minor Content Removal: Users under 18 in CA may request removal of publicly posted content.
Do Not Track & GPC: We do not respond to DNT signals, but we do respond to GPC (Global Privacy Control) signals as a valid opt-out preference.

7.6 Additional State Rights (CO, CT, VA, UT, NV). Residents of these states have specific rights to confirm processing, delete data, and opt-out of targeted advertising. To exercise these or appeal a decision, email info@chinesemenuonline.com.
