openpod corp. ("openpod", "we", "our") provides a food discovery and ordering system that helps people find, rate, and share meals — and helps restaurants understand what their customers love.

we collect and process only the data necessary to deliver and improve this experience. this may include messages, order history, dish ratings, budget preferences, and basic profile information shared during onboarding or interactions.

this data is used to:
– personalise meal recommendations based on your history and preferences
– match you with others to split dishes
– help partner restaurants understand what's working and what isn't

openpod does not sell personal data and does not share personal data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

we may use secure third-party infrastructure and AI service providers to process data strictly for delivering the service.

data is stored securely and access is restricted using appropriate safeguards.

depending on your relationship with a restaurant partner, certain order and rating data may be shared with that restaurant to improve your experience.

you may request access, correction, or deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

openpod provides dish recommendations, order matching, and restaurant insights. it is not a food delivery service and does not guarantee availability of any dish or restaurant at any time.

you are responsible for how you use the service and for any decisions made based on its outputs.

you agree not to misuse the system, submit false ratings, or use the service for unlawful purposes.

openpod may modify or discontinue parts of the service as it evolves.

to the maximum extent permitted by law, openpod is not liable for outcomes, interruptions, or actions taken based on system suggestions.

openpod works in partnership with restaurants to help them understand what their customers genuinely enjoy.

if you dine at a partner restaurant, aggregated dish ratings and order patterns may be shared with that restaurant to help them improve.

this data is shared only for service delivery and not for advertising or external distribution.

restaurants do not receive access to personal conversations or individual identities. access is limited to relevant, anonymised insights.
