Seattle Foodie Passport LLC (“SFP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) publishes and sells the Seattle Foodie Passport, an annual printed book of Offers from Participating Businesses (the “Passport Book” or “Book”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit seattlefoodiepassport.com, including our online store (the “Site”), purchase a Passport Book, sign up for our emails, or otherwise interact with us online or offline (together, the “Services”). Specifically, this Privacy Policy explains:

  • what non-public information that can be used, alone or in combination, to identify you (“Personal Information”) we collect;

  • how we use and share your Personal Information; and

  • how we protect your Personal Information and the choices you have.

By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings given to them in our Terms of Use, available at seattlefoodiepassport.com/terms-of-use.

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect your IP address, browser and device type, general location derived from your IP address, pages viewed, links clicked, referring website, and the date and time of your visit, using cookies, pixels, web beacons, and similar technologies (“Tracking Tools”). We use Tracking Tools to operate the Site and our online store, remember items in your cart, understand how the Site is used, and measure the effectiveness of our marketing. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but some features of the Site may not work properly if you disable them. Third parties, such as our analytics and advertising providers, providers of embedded content (for example, Instagram videos and map tiles), and security tools, may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use the Site. Our forms are protected by Google reCAPTCHA, and Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply to reCAPTCHA.

2.3 Information from Third Parties

We may receive Personal Information from our website and e-commerce platform, payment processors, shipping carriers, email service providers, and analytics providers. If you contact a Participating Business about an Offer redemption issue, the business may share information about that issue with us so we can help resolve it. If you interact with our social media accounts, we may receive information you make available on those platforms, subject to their privacy settings.

2.4 Offer Redemptions

Offers are redeemed in person at Participating Businesses. We do not track which Offers you use or when you use them, and Participating Businesses do not provide us with your Personal Information when you redeem an Offer.

3. How We Use Personal Information

We use Personal Information to:

  • process, ship, and track your orders, including gift orders, and handle cancellations, replacements, and refunds;

  • create and manage your account;

  • communicate with you about your order, the Passport Book, and changes affecting Participating Businesses;

  • send newsletters and marketing emails if you have signed up for them;

  • respond to your questions and help resolve Offer redemption issues with Participating Businesses;

  • administer contests, giveaways, and surveys;

  • display and publish your Submissions in connection with the Services and our marketing, as described in Section 11 of our Terms of Use;

  • operate, maintain, analyze, and improve the Site and the Services;

  • detect and prevent fraud, unauthorized resale, counterfeiting, and misuse of Passport Books and Offers; and

  • comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Use (including the Offer Terms).

We do not use your Personal Information to train artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.

4. How We Share Personal Information

We share Personal Information only as follows:

  • Service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting and e-commerce (our Site is hosted by Squarespace), payment processing, order fulfillment and shipping, email delivery, analytics, and customer support. These providers may use Personal Information only to perform services for us.

  • Participating Businesses, only to the extent needed to resolve an Offer redemption issue you report to us. We do not share or sell customer lists to Participating Businesses for their own marketing.

  • Contest co-sponsors, if a contest or giveaway is co-sponsored, as described in its official rules or at the time you enter.

  • Professional advisors, such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, and insurers, as needed for the services they provide to us.

  • Corporate transactions: in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of all or part of our business or assets, including to an affiliate or successor.

  • Legal and safety: to comply with law, legal process, or government requests; to enforce our Terms of Use (including the Offer Terms); or to protect the rights, property, or safety of SFP, our customers, Participating Businesses, or others. Where legally permitted, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you before producing your Personal Information in response to a subpoena or similar request.

  • With your consent or at your direction.

  • Aggregated or de-identified information that does not identify you may be used and shared for any lawful purpose, such as describing how many Passport Books were sold in a given area.

We do not sell Personal Information, and we do not rent or trade it.

5. Your Privacy Choices

  • Access, correction, and deletion: you may ask us to access, correct, or delete the Personal Information we hold about you by emailing sfp@seattlefoodie.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding, and we may retain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as tax and accounting records. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable state privacy laws, and we will honor those rights as required by law. If we decline your request, we will explain why. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

6. Retention and Security

We retain Personal Information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to fulfill orders, maintain business and tax records, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect Personal Information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. If you believe your account or Personal Information has been compromised, please contact us promptly. If a security breach affecting your Personal Information occurs, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
