Legal & Privacy

Privacy Policy

Draft information about how GoDine handles customer data.

Draft—business and legal review required before launch.

Effective date, controller/legal entity, contact details, retention periods, and jurisdiction-specific disclosures remain to be supplied.

Information GoDine handles

GoDine stores account and profile details such as email address, password hash, name, phone number, verification state, and an optional profile image. It also stores browser sessions, rotating mobile refresh sessions, security and recovery records, membership state, Stripe identifiers, billing transaction records, credit grants and ledger entries, redemptions, notification preferences, and registered mobile push endpoints.

Dining and location information

GoDine uses restaurant addresses and Google Maps for discovery, maps, distance context, and directions. When a customer permits location access during redemption, GoDine may record the submitted coordinates, calculated distance, and whether the configurable distance warning was shown. Location permission is contextual and a missing location does not by itself block redemption.

How information is used

  • Authenticate customers and protect sessions.
  • Operate memberships, credits, redemptions, waiter-verifiable receipts, restaurant reporting, and payouts.
  • Send transactional email and opted-in push notifications.
  • Prevent duplicate or fraudulent activity, diagnose failures, and preserve authoritative accounting and audit records.

Implemented providers

Stripe handles hosted membership payment and billing-management flows. SendGrid delivers transactional email. Railway hosts the web/API application and PostgreSQL/PostGIS database. AWS S3 and CloudFront store and deliver managed images. The notification backend integrates with Amazon SNS and the applicable Apple or Google push service when provider resources and credentials are configured. Google Maps supports mapping, geocoding, and directions. GoDine does not collect membership payment details inside the native app.

Account deletion and retention

After all consequences are acknowledged and the current password is verified, deletion immediately cancels future subscription billing without an automatic refund or prorated invoice, ends membership access, and forfeits every unused membership and promotional credit. GoDine revokes sessions and push delivery, removes or irreversibly anonymizes profile and authentication data, and retains opaque relationships and records required for financial accounting, redemption and payout integrity, fraud prevention, legal obligations, and audit. Retained redemption evidence can include restaurant, time, exact submitted location, calculated distance, and Stripe identifiers where required for those purposes. A reviewed retention schedule and specific durations remain to be supplied.

Diagnostics and access

Ordinary logs are designed to exclude passwords, tokens, payment data, exact location, and customer profile fields. Support IDs correlate safe error details without exposing internal billing or deletion state. Requests concerning account information should use the currently configured path on the Support page.

Terms of Service

Draft terms for the GoDine membership service.

Draft—business and legal review required before launch.

Legal entity, effective date, eligibility/age policy, governing law, dispute terms, complete contact details, and legally required consumer terms remain to be supplied.

The service

GoDine provides customer restaurant discovery, monthly membership credits, eligible promotional and additional credits, and customer-initiated redemptions at participating restaurants. Restaurant availability, offers, menu items, and operating details can change.

Accounts

Customers are responsible for accurate account information and protecting their password and devices. Email verification is required before starting or changing membership, purchasing credits, redeeming, or receiving promotional credits. GoDine may disable access when needed to protect the service or its records.

Memberships and billing

Membership purchase and billing management use Stripe-hosted web pages. Plans renew monthly until canceled. Subscription and additional credits expire at the applicable billing-cycle end; promotional credits do not expire under the current product rules. A customer may cancel renewal through the provided billing controls, but pause is not supported. Plan-change timing and consequences are displayed before confirmation.

Redemptions

One credit represents one redemption for the benefit displayed by GoDine, currently one entrée up to $20 in value. Customers select the restaurant and review an irreversible confirmation. Location-distance information is a warning and audit signal, not a hard eligibility block. Same-restaurant, same-local-day redemptions are blocked. A completed redemption may be voided only by an authorized administrator before payout, subject to the implemented audit rules.

Account deletion

Authenticated deletion requires the current password and separate acknowledgement that membership access ends immediately, unused membership and promotional credits are forfeited, future Stripe subscription billing stops immediately, and previous payments are not refunded automatically. Deletion cannot complete while an active recurring billing relationship remains. Records required for accounting, payouts, fraud prevention, legal obligations, and audit are retained in anonymized or minimized form.

Unresolved legal terms

No governing jurisdiction, arbitration requirement, liability limitation, warranty disclaimer, age minimum, postal address, telephone number, or fixed retention duration is stated here because those facts have not been verified. Business and legal reviewers must complete this section before publication as final terms.

Account Deletion Information

Learn how to permanently delete a GoDine customer account.

What deletion does

  • Cancels future Stripe subscription billing immediately.
  • Ends membership access immediately.
  • Permanently forfeits every unused membership and promotional credit.
  • Does not automatically refund any previous payment.

The authenticated flow requires your current password and a separate acknowledgement of each consequence. Opening this information page does not delete anything.

Delete your account

Review every consequence before opening the authenticated deletion screen. Biometric quick unlock is not sufficient for final confirmation.

Review account deletion

Records that remain

GoDine removes or irreversibly anonymizes profile, authentication, delivery, and contact data that is no longer required. Minimized financial, credit-ledger, redemption, payout, fraud-prevention, legal, and audit records remain authoritative where required. See the draft Privacy page for additional detail.
