Privacy policy
What DealCrave collects, and what it never does.
Last updated September 27, 2026
- We do not collect your location.
- You don’t need an account to use DealCrave.
- We don’t sell your personal information.
- The little we do receive is basic device and usage data from the app stores and our app tooling, plus anything you send us when you contact support.
This Privacy Policy explains how DealCrave (“DealCrave,” “we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the DealCrave mobile application, website, and related services (the “Service”). It forms part of our Terms of Service.
1. What DealCrave does
DealCrave shows restaurant deals and promotions that we compile and post ourselves. The app does not require you to sign in, does not track your location, and does not need access to your contacts, photos, camera, or microphone.
2. Information we collect
| Category | What | How |
|---|---|---|
| Device and diagnostic data | Device type and model, operating system version, app version, language, crash reports, and basic error logs. | Automatically, through the app platform and our app-development tooling. |
| Usage data | Which screens and deals are viewed, taps, and session length. This is aggregated and not tied to your identity. | Automatically, through analytics built into the app. |
| Push notification token | A device identifier that lets us deliver notifications. | Only if you turn notifications on. Turn them off in your device settings at any time. |
| Saved deals and preferences | Deals you favourite or settings you choose. | Stored on your device. Not sent to us unless a sync feature is later added and disclosed. |
| Support communications | Your email address and the contents of your message. | Only when you email us. |
| App store data | Download, purchase, and subscription records. | Held by Apple or Google under their own privacy policies. We receive only aggregated or transaction-level data needed to provide the Service. |
What we do not collect: precise or approximate location, name (unless you email us), phone number, payment card details, contacts, photos, biometric data, or health data.
3. How we use information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the app and fix bugs.
- To understand which deals and features are popular so we can post more useful content.
- To send notifications you have opted into.
- To respond to support requests and intellectual-property or legal complaints.
- To detect abuse, fraud, or security incidents.
- To comply with legal obligations.
We do not use your information to build advertising profiles, and we do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you.
4. How we share information
We do not sell personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We share information only with:
- Service providers that host the app, deliver notifications, and provide crash reporting and analytics, acting on our instructions.
- App marketplaces (Apple, Google) as required to distribute the app and process purchases.
- Authorities or other parties where required by law, subpoena, or legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of DealCrave, our users, or others.
- A successor in the event of a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of the Service, subject to this Policy.
If we add advertising, affiliate tracking, or accounts to the app, we will update this Policy before that data is collected.
5. Third-party restaurants and links
When you tap through to a restaurant’s website or app, that third party’s privacy policy governs what it collects. DealCrave does not control and is not responsible for third-party data practices.
6. Retention
Diagnostic and usage data is kept in aggregated form for as long as useful to improve the Service, typically no more than 24 months. Support emails are kept as long as reasonably needed to address your request and for our records. Notification tokens are deleted when you turn notifications off or uninstall the app. We may retain information longer where required by law or to resolve disputes.
7. Your choices
- Notifications: manage or disable in your device settings.
- Analytics: on iOS, you may limit tracking through Settings → Privacy & Security; on Android, through Settings → Google → Ads. Uninstalling the app stops all collection.
- Saved deals: stored on your device; clearing app data or uninstalling removes them.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict certain processing, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (we do neither), and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Because DealCrave collects very little that identifies you, in most cases we will have no personal information linked to you; where we do (for example, a support email), you can exercise these rights by contacting us at support@dealcrave.app. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your request. You may authorize an agent to act on your behalf where permitted.
Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Texas, Oregon, and other US states with privacy laws: the rights above apply to you. We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not process sensitive personal information.
Canada: DealCrave is operated from Ontario. You may contact us with questions about our handling of personal information, and you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
9. Children
DealCrave is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, email support@dealcrave.app and we will delete it.
10. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, including limiting what we collect in the first place. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
11. International transfers
DealCrave is operated from Canada and serves users in the United States. Our service providers may process data in the United States, Canada, or other countries. By using the Service, you understand that your information may be processed outside your jurisdiction under laws that may differ from your own.
12. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the current version at dealcrave.app/privacy.html and update the “Last updated” date. For material changes, we will provide additional notice in the app where appropriate or required by law.
