eatNgage Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) applies to your use of the EatNgage services (the “Services”), including the EatNgage platform (the “Platform”) and the website at eatNgage.com (the “Site”), made available by eatNgage , Inc. It applies to information we collect about you. In this document, “we” refers to EatNgage Inc., and “you” refers to you, the user or customer to whom this Policy applies. This Policy should be read in conjunction with our Terms of Service. The use of information processed through our service shall be limited to the purpose of providing the service for which the Client has engaged EatNgage and as further set forth herein.
In order to offer our Services to you, we must collect certain information about you. Because we respect your privacy, we have documented our policies regarding this information here, and we will not collect or use information about you except in the ways we describe.
1. What information we collect
We collect two types of information about you: Personally Identifiable Information and Non-personally Identifiable Information.
“Personally Identifiable Information” is information that lets us know who you are, specifically. Information in this category includes the information you use when registering to use the Platform, like your name, company name, email address, postal address, other contact information, associated domain name and credit card information. Your login credentials are also Personally Identifiable Information. Finally, this category includes information tied to your identity that you provide us through other means, such as emails to our support service and comments on our blog.
“Non-personally Identifiable Information” is information that doesn’t let us determine your identity. This generally comes from your use of the Services after registering. For instance, our web server logs may show us that someone with a certain Internet Protocol (“IP”) address visited the Site using a certain web browser, but we can’t use that information alone to say whether the visitor was you or someone else. Non-personally Identifiable Information also includes information that could personally identify you in its original form, but that we have modified to remove or hide (for instance, by aggregation) any Personally Identifiable Information. This collection of information occurs automatically when you use the Services.
Information we collect by automated means. Each time you visit the Site, view an EatNgage advertisement on a third party-owned website, or read our marketing email, we may automatically collect information about you via cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies. These are small files associated with information that your browser or our servers will save and return as part of your use of the Site and the Services for purposes such as saving your login session between visits, remembering your display preferences and tracking your use of the Site. Such information includes standard information from your web browser (such as browser type and browser language), your IP address, and your activities on the Site (such as the web pages viewed and the links clicked, number of visits, access time), the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave the Site.
While cookies do not contain Personally Identifiable Information, we may associate the information they contain with Personally Identifiable Information for these and similar purposes. You may opt out of our use of cookies configuring your browser to
reject them. However, this may cause some features of the Services to work incorrectly.
We partner with a third party to display advertising on our website or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our third party partner may use cookies or similar technologies in order to provide you advertising based upon your browsing activities and interests. If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising click here or if located in the European Union click here. Please note you will continue to receive generic ads.
2. Your use of the Services
Your use of the Services is subject to the EatNgage Terms of Service. We do not permanently store the content of emails you send and receive with the Platform and we do not mine your messages for contextual advertising. We do temporarily store emails if you are using our store() action through Routes. In addition, we temporarily store emails for purposes of our outbound reputation systems, ensuring they comply with our Terms of Service, re-attempting the delivery of emails that were previously unsuccessfully delivered and for providing log data. If you are using our Email Validation service, we do not store those email addresses. While you should keep in mind that email, by its nature, is not a reliably private means of communication, we support TLS and SSL to limit these risks.
3. How we use your information
We use the information we collect about you to provide the Services to you. As part of that purpose, we may use your Personally Identifiable Information and Non personally Identifiable Information:
• To create and maintain your Platform account, and to control access to it
• To provide you with real-time logs of your use of the Platform;
• To respond to any requests you may submit for support or sales information, or
similar communications;
• To communicate with you (for example through newsletters, marketing emails,
announcements or special offers) about the Services;
• To measure interest in the Site and our advertising campaigns;
• For billing and collection purposes, if you have subscribed to one of our paid plans;
• To help promote compliance with our Terms of Service or any other agreements
between us;
• To enable third parties to provide services to us;
• For customers that request allocated dedicated IP addresses, for the purposes of
assigning the dedicated IP address to that customer;
• To carry out other purposes that are disclosed to you and to which you consent;
• To comply with the law; and
• We may use information we collect in order to advertise our Services to you or to your
invitees, or to suggest additional features of our Services that you or your invitees might
consider using.
We may use your Non-personally Identifiable Information to enhance the Services,
for instance through web analytics or troubleshooting. We may also use aggregated
or depersonalized information to promote our Services, such as by citing usage
statistics.
We may also use your information in the ways described above through a thirdparty contractor rather than in-house. If we do, we’ll require our contractors to
protect your data on terms at least as strict as those in this Policy.
4. Third parties
Except for the limited circumstances described in this Policy or your applicable agreement / terms of service, we do not provide your information to third parties. When we need to provide your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties, we will only share it to the extent reasonably necessary. We may also share your Personally Identifiable Information as required or permitted by law and as described below.
We host the Site and operate the Platform using third parties, including AWS® (the “Hosting Providers”). The Hosting Providers will host your Platform from its data centers throughout the United States.
We use a third party, Stripe®, to process subscription payments, and therefore provide them with the Personally Identifiable Information required to charge your credit card.
We may use third-party services either embedded into our Site (such as Tumblr®, Disqus®, Mixpanel™, VWO®, Intercom®, KISSMetrics™, Moz™, Segment™ and Google® Analytics) or outside of it (such as GitHub® and Twitter®) to communicate with you or to enhance the function of the Site and the Services.
We use third-party service providers and platforms for customer engagement, customer chat, product feedback and customer support ticketing.
While we provide these third parties with no more information than is necessary to
enable these third-parties to provide the services to us, any information that you
provide these services independently is subject to their respective privacy policies
and practices.
In certain situations, eatNgage may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
We may be required by law or court order to provide Personally Identifiable Information or Non-personally Identifiable Information to government authorities or private parties. We fully cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use the Services for illegal activities, and we may report to law enforcement any activities that we believe in good faith are unlawful. We may need to release the information we collect to third parties when we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law, to enforce our legal rights, to protect the rights, safety or property of our business and others, or to assist with industry efforts to control fraud, spam or other undesirable conduct and as needed to support auditing, compliance, and corporate governance functions.
Additionally, we will provide information to a third party in the event of any reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings).
5. Your choices
You may opt out from any future communications from us (and/or our partners) by emailing us at We will honor your opt-out within 10 days. Please note that you cannot unsubscribe from service-related messages. If you would like us to cease all of the described uses of your Personally Identifiable Information, you may delete your account at any time by emailing us at This will delete your Personally Identifiable Information from our records, and we will make no further use of it. We may, however, retain copies of your Personally Identifiable Information in backups. Please note that we may be required to retain certain information by law and/or for own legitimate business purposes. You can choose not to provide certain information when using the Site and the Services, but this may prevent you from being able to take full advantage of the functions available online and it may prevent us from being able to provide you with the Services.
An individual who seeks access, or who seeks to correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data should direct their query to EatNgage’s customer (the data controller). If requested to remove data we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
You may access, correct, request deletion or request a copy of any or all of your Personally Identifiable Information in our possession by emailing us at or updating your account settings, and we will honor your request within 30 days. If we must incur expenses to comply with your request, we may charge you a reasonable fee to cover these expenses if permitted by law. If you believe any of the Personally Identifiable Information we have collected from you is inaccurate, you can email with a request to update this information. We will honor your requests within reasonable timeframe.
6. Security
The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once it is received. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at Remember, though, that some parts of the Services are public and that email, by its nature, is not a reliably private means of communication. If you voluntarily provide Personally Identifiable Information in our blog or another public area of the Site, unrelated parties online will be able to view it and collect it. If you don’t want to make this information publicly available, you shouldn’t post it.
