    2) How We Use Your Information

    We use the information we collect to:

    • Respond to inquiries and manage bookings.

    If you subscribe to our mailing list, we may send you emails about new menus, events, or promotions. You can unsubscribe from these emails at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any message or by contacting us at hello@simplefareevents.ca.

    4) Payments

    Online payments are processed securely through third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment or credit card details on our servers. If you pay by e-transfer, your bank or payment provider's privacy policy applies.

    5) Third-Party Services

    Our Site may use trusted third-party tools, including:

    • Google reCAPTCHA — to protect our forms from spam and abuse.
    • Google Analytics (if enabled) — to collect anonymous usage data that helps us understand visitor behavior.

    These services may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies. By using our Site, you acknowledge that Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply where applicable.

    6) Cookies

    Cookies are small files that websites store on your browser. They help improve site performance and remember preferences. You can choose to disable cookies in your browser settings, but some parts of our Site may not function properly without them.

    7) Data Security

    We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. However, no online system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

    8) Data Retention

    We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services, fulfill legal obligations, or resolve disputes.

    9) Your Rights

    You may request to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time by contacting us at hello@simplefareevents.ca. We will respond to all requests within a reasonable timeframe.

    10) Links to Other Websites
