HOW WE USE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We use the information we collect from all of our services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones,
and to protect What2eat and our users. We also use this information to offer you tailored content.
We may use the name you provide for your What2eat Profile across all of the services we offer that require a What2eat Account.
In addition, we may replace past names associated with your What2eat Account so that you are represented consistently across
all our services. If other users already have your email, or other information that identifies you, we may show them your
publicly visible What2eat Profile information, such as your name and photo.
If you have a What2eat Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on What2eat or on third-party
applications connected to your What2eat Account (such as reviews you write and comments you post) in our services, including
displaying in ads and other commercial contexts.
When you contact What2eat, we keep a record of your communication to help solve any issues you might be facing. We may use your
email address to inform you about our services, such as letting you know about upcoming changes or improvements.
We use information collected from cookies and other technologies to improve your user experience and the
overall quality of our services.
Our automated systems analyze your content (including emails) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as
customized search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection.
We may combine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other What2eat
services – for example to make it easier to share things with people you know. Depending on your account settings, your
activity on other sites and apps may be associated with your personal information in order to improve What2eat’s services
and the ads delivered by What2eat.
We will ask for your consent before using information for a purpose other than those that are set out in this Privacy Policy.
What2eat processes personal information on our servers in many countries around the world. We may process your personal
information on a server located outside the country where you live.
TRANSPARENCY AND CHOICE
People have different privacy concerns. Our goal is to be clear about what information we collect, so that you can make
meaningful choices about how it is used.
You may also set your browser to block all cookies, including cookies associated with our services, or to indicate when a
cookie is being set by us. However, it’s important to remember that many of our services may not function properly if your
cookies are disabled.
INFORMATION YOU SHARE
Many of our services let you share information with others. Remember that when you share information publicly, it may be
indexable by search engines, including What2eat. Our services provide you with different options on sharing and removing your
content.
ACCESSING AND UPDATING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
Whenever you use our services, we aim to provide you with access to your personal information. If that information is wrong,
we strive to give you ways to update it quickly or to delete it – unless we have to keep that information for legitimate
business or legal purposes. When updating your personal information, we may ask you to verify your identity before we can act
on your request.
We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, developing a
new system or fundamentally changing an existing practice), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (for
instance, requests concerning information residing on backup systems).
Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate
effort. We aim to maintain our services in a manner that protects information from accidental or malicious destruction. Because
of this, after you delete information from our services, we may not immediately delete residual copies from our active servers
and may not remove information from our backup systems.
INFORMATION WE SHARE
We do not share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of What2eat unless one of the
following circumstances applies:

consent to do so. We require opt-in consent for the sharing of any sensitive personal information.
With domain administrators
If your What2eat Account is managed for you by a domain administrator (for example, for What2eat Apps users) then your
domain administrator and resellers who provide user support to your organization will have access to your What2eat
Account information (including your email and other data). Your domain administrator may be able to:
view statistics regarding your account, like statistics regarding applications you install.
change your account password.
suspend or terminate your account access.
access or retain information stored as part of your account.
receive your account information in order to satisfy applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable
governmental request.

on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
For legal reasons
We will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of What2eat if we have a
good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of What2eat, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.
We may share non-personally identifiable information publicly and with our partners – like publishers, advertisers or
connected sites. For example, we may share information publicly to show trends about the general use of our services.
If What2eat is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of any
personal information and give affected users notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a
different privacy policy.
INFORMATION SECURITY
We work hard to protect What2eat and our users from unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or
destruction of information we hold. In particular:
We encrypt many of our services using SSL.
We offer you two step verification when you access your What2eat Account, and a Safe Browsing feature in What2eat Chrome.
We review our information collection, storage and processing practices, including physical security measures, to guard
against unauthorized access to systems.
We restrict access to personal information to What2eat employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information
in order to process it for us, and who are subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations and may be
disciplined or terminated if they fail to meet these obligations.

services, and who may use cookies, pixel tags and other technologies to serve and offer relevant ads.
COMPLIANCE AND COOPERATION WITH REGULATORY AUTHORITIES

we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made the complaint to follow up. We work with the
appropriate regulatory authorities, including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding
