Reservations, Ordering, and Payment Services

​

We use Toast and may use other third-party providers to offer reservations, online ordering, payment processing, gift cards, memberships, loyalty programs, and related services. Information submitted through these services may be collected directly by the provider and handled under its own privacy policy and terms.

​

We encourage you to review the privacy policies presented by these providers before submitting information.

​

Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising

​

Our website and service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to:

​

  • Operate, maintain, and secure the website.

  • Remember preferences and improve functionality.

  • Understand website traffic and visitor interactions.

  • Measure marketing and advertising performance.

  • Present or measure advertising on other websites or platforms.

​

These providers may include Google, Meta, our website-hosting provider, our email-marketing provider, and similar technology vendors.

​

Some analytics and advertising technologies may collect online identifiers and browsing activity. Depending on applicable law, certain uses of these technologies may be considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or use for targeted advertising, even when no money is exchanged.

​

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and any cookie-preference tool provided on our website. Blocking cookies may affect certain website features. Where required by applicable law, we will recognize supported browser-based opt-out preference signals.

​

Proof does not sell consumer health data or use consumer health data for targeted advertising.

​

Google Maps, Social Media, and External Links

​

Our website may include Google Maps, embedded social-media content, or links to Instagram, Facebook, and other third-party services. These companies may collect information about your browser, device, and interactions with their services under their own privacy policies.

​

Proof does not control the privacy, security, or accessibility practices of third-party websites or platforms.

​

Email Communications

​

If you subscribe to promotional emails, you may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in the message or by contacting us at info@theproofbar.com.

​

You may continue to receive non-promotional communications relating to reservations, purchases, memberships, applications, or other transactions.

​

How We Disclose Information

​

We may disclose personal information to:

​

  • Reservation, ordering, payment, gift-card, membership, loyalty, email, hosting, analytics, advertising, technology, and customer-service providers that perform services for us.

  • Employees and contractors who need the information to serve guests, process requests, or operate the business.

  • Professional advisers, such as attorneys, accountants, insurers, and consultants.

  • Government agencies, regulators, courts, law enforcement, or other parties when disclosure is required or permitted by law.

  • A purchaser, successor, or other party involved in a proposed or completed merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, bankruptcy, or transfer of business assets.

  • Other parties when you direct us or provide consent.

​

We do not sell personal information for money. Our use of certain analytics or advertising technologies may, however, be treated as a sale or sharing of online identifiers under some privacy laws. Proof does not knowingly sell or share consumer health data.

​

Data Retention

​

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, provide requested services, comply with legal and accounting obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, applicable legal requirements, and the settings or practices of the service providers we use.

​

Data Security

​

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

​

Your Choices and Privacy Requests

​

Depending on where you live and which laws apply, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information; withdraw consent; receive information about certain disclosures; or opt out of certain targeted advertising, sales, or sharing.

​

To initiate a general privacy request, email info@theproofbar.com with “Privacy Request” in the subject line or call 360-314-6994. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and protect your information. Certain information may be retained when permitted or required by law.

​

Requests involving consumer health data are governed by our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.
