Privacy Policy

The information we collect depends on how you use the Services.

Information you provide to us

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, including:

• your email address when you subscribe to updates or newsletters;
• your name, email address, phone number, and other contact information when you contact us or communicate with us;
• account and profile information if you create a consumer or business account;
• business information submitted by venue owners or representatives, including venue name, address, happy-hour days and times, menu items, specials, pricing, photos, contact information, and related listing details;
• saved preferences, favorites, or other settings associated with your account;
• information you submit when creating, managing, or responding to promotions, flash deals, listings, or other business tools; and
• transaction or subscription information associated with paid business or consumer services.

Payment card information, when applicable, is processed by third-party payment processors. Happy Hour Hero does not intend to store complete payment-card numbers on its own systems.

Information collected automatically

When you use the Services, we or our service providers may automatically collect limited technical and usage information, such as:

• IP address;
• browser type;
• device type and operating system;
• pages or screens viewed;
• referring URLs;
• date and time of access;
• interactions with features;
• diagnostic, performance, security, or error information; and
• campaign or attribution information, such as UTM parameters.

We may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies when necessary for site functionality, preferences, security, analytics, or authentication.

Location information

Some Happy Hour Hero features are designed to help you find nearby venues and offers.

We may infer an approximate location from information such as your IP address. If a mobile application or browser requests more precise device location, we will use that information only when you grant the applicable device or browser permission.

You may control precise-location permissions through your device or browser settings.

Venue and public information

Happy Hour Hero also processes information about bars, restaurants, businesses, events, happy hours, menus, promotions, and venues.

This information may come from:

• venues or their representatives;
• publicly available websites or social-media pages;
• public business information;
• partners or contributors; or
• information independently verified or submitted to Happy Hour Hero.

Business or venue information that is publicly available is generally not treated as consumer personal information unless it identifies a specific individual.

We may use information to:

• operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Services;
• provide happy-hour search, venue discovery, maps, nearby results, saved favorites, and personalized functionality;
• display and manage venue listings, specials, promotions, and flash deals;
• process business onboarding and listing submissions;
• create and manage user or business accounts;
• process subscriptions or paid services;
• send service-related communications;
• send newsletters or marketing communications when permitted;
• respond to support requests;
• understand how people use the Services;
• measure marketing campaigns and product performance;
• prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, or misuse;
• enforce our Terms of Service;
• comply with legal obligations; and
• protect the rights, property, safety, and integrity of Happy Hour Hero, our users, venues, and others.

We do not sell personal information for money.

We may disclose information to service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as hosting, database infrastructure, authentication, storage, forms, email delivery, analytics, payments, and technical support.

Current or anticipated service providers may include:

• Supabase for database, authentication, and storage infrastructure;
• Vercel and/or Netlify for website hosting and server infrastructure;
• Airtable for newsletter or operational records;
• Jotform for business intake and forms;
• Stripe or another payment processor for payments and subscriptions; and
• analytics, communications, or notification providers used to operate or improve the Services.

These providers may process information according to their own privacy terms and our arrangements with them.

We may also disclose information:

• at your direction or with your consent;
• to a venue or business when necessary to provide a feature you request;
• to comply with law, regulation, court order, subpoena, or governmental request;
• to investigate fraud, misuse, security issues, or violations of our terms;
• to protect our legal rights or the safety of others; or
• in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, sale, restructuring, or transfer of all or part of our business or assets.

If our practices later constitute a "sale," "sharing," or use for targeted advertising under an applicable privacy law, we will provide the notices and choices required by that law.

If you subscribe to Happy Hour Hero emails, we may use your email address to send news, launch updates, venue recommendations, promotions, or other marketing communications.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe mechanism in the message or by contacting support@happyhourhero.co.

We may still send non-promotional communications that are necessary to operate an account, business relationship, transaction, or service.

If you represent a venue or business, we may use information you provide to:

• review or publish a listing;
• verify business information;
• communicate regarding your listing;
• manage paid plans;
• manage promotions or flash deals;
• provide analytics or business tools; and
• prevent fraudulent or unauthorized claims of a venue.

Information intended for a public venue listing may become publicly visible.

Do not submit personal information that you do not have authority to provide.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Services, maintain business and transaction records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and comply with legal obligations.

Retention periods vary by type of information.

For example:

• newsletter information may be retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion;
• account information may be retained while an account remains active and for a reasonable period afterward;
• transaction and business records may be retained as required for accounting, tax, fraud-prevention, or legal purposes; and
• backup copies may remain for a limited period after deletion from active systems.

We may retain deidentified or aggregated information that can no longer reasonably identify you.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information.

However, no internet transmission, storage system, database, or electronic service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for promptly notifying us of suspected unauthorized access.

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have rights regarding your personal information, which can include the right to:

• request access to personal information we maintain about you;
• request correction of inaccurate information;
• request deletion of certain information;
• obtain a portable copy of certain information;
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
• object to or restrict certain processing;
• opt out of certain forms of sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling where applicable; and
• appeal a decision regarding a privacy request where applicable.

You may submit a request to:

support@happyhourhero.co

We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

These rights are subject to exceptions and limitations under applicable law. Even when a particular privacy law does not require us to honor a specific request, we may choose to assist where reasonably practical.

Happy Hour Hero may be used in multiple countries.

Happy Hour Hero LLC is based in the United States, and information may be processed or stored in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

Privacy protections in those locations may differ from those in your home country.

Where legally required, we will use appropriate mechanisms for international transfers of personal information.

The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 in a manner requiring parental consent, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

A parent or guardian who believes a child has provided personal information may contact:

support@happyhourhero.co

Happy Hour Hero may display information about alcoholic beverages and alcohol promotions. Users must comply with the legal drinking-age requirements of the jurisdiction in which they are located.

Happy Hour Hero is an information and discovery platform. We do not sell, serve, deliver, or dispense alcoholic beverages.

Venue listings and promotions involving alcohol are informational. The venue remains responsible for checking identification, complying with licensing laws, and determining whether a customer is eligible to purchase or consume alcohol.

The Services may link to third-party websites, maps, reservation tools, social media, payment services, venue websites, or other external services.

We do not control the privacy practices of those third parties.

We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing information to them.

We may update this Privacy Policy as the Services evolve or laws change.

When we make material changes, we will update the effective date and provide any additional notice required by applicable law.
