Privacy approach

GuestRecovery is designed around private hospitality communication.

Restaurants use GuestRecovery to collect guest signals, respond to service moments, recognize team members, and improve operations. That means the data should be treated as operationally useful and handled with care.

Private first

Guest feedback is intended for the restaurant.

GuestRecovery is not built to publish private guest feedback publicly. The system is designed to help restaurants respond and improve.

Operational use

Data supports recovery and improvement.

Feedback, alerts, notes, and outcomes may be used to support manager response, training, reporting, and Experience Gap analysis.

Controlled access

Pilot and demo access should be handled carefully.

Private walkthroughs, pilot access, and internal dashboards are intended for authorized restaurant, owner, manager, or GuestRecovery users.

Information We Collect

GuestRecovery may collect information provided through demo requests, pilot access requests, restaurant onboarding, guest feedback flows, manager dashboards, support messages, and related product workflows.

This may include contact information such as name, email address, phone number, restaurant or company name, job role, location details, and information submitted through a request form.

Guest Feedback and Recovery Data

When GuestRecovery is used by a restaurant, guests may submit private feedback such as ratings, comments, praise, suggestions, menu ideas, service notes, issue categories, or other experience-related details.

Depending on how a restaurant configures the system, a guest signal may also be associated with a table, section, QR source, prompt type, visit context, optional contact information, or recovery follow-up information.

Less-than-4-star feedback may be routed to management so the restaurant can respond, acknowledge the signal, check on the guest, record a recovery action, and document an outcome.

Restaurant, Manager, and Team Data

GuestRecovery may collect or process restaurant operating information, including tenant or location information, staff or manager names, assigned roles, QR source names, prompt locations, response activity, recovery notes, resolution status, and reporting data.

This information is used to support the restaurant’s internal hospitality workflow, including manager alerts, recovery tracking, praise capture, Experience Gap reporting, setup support, and pilot evaluation.

How We Use Information

GuestRecovery may use collected information to provide and improve the service, respond to demo and pilot requests, configure restaurant accounts, route guest signals, support manager workflows, generate reports, provide support, improve product features, and communicate with restaurants or authorized users.

Information may also be used to understand product performance, improve QR prompt workflows, refine manager alert rules, analyze recovery patterns, and develop better hospitality intelligence features.

How Information Is Shared

GuestRecovery does not sell guest feedback or restaurant operating data. Information may be shared with the restaurant or authorized users associated with that restaurant, such as owners, managers, corporate users, or approved team members.

We may also use trusted service providers to help operate the website, process forms, host data, send communications, provide analytics, support product infrastructure, or deliver related services. These providers should only receive information needed to perform their role.

We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, safety obligations, or to protect GuestRecovery, restaurants, guests, users, or the integrity of the service.

Demo, Sandbox, and Pilot Data

GuestRecovery may use demo or sandbox data for product walkthroughs. Controlled demos should not expose live restaurant guest signals, live tenant data, billing records, or private operational records.

Pilot restaurants may provide real operating feedback to help evaluate QR placement, manager alerts, escalation timing, recovery tracking, source tracking, staff praise, and Experience Gap reporting. Pilot feedback may be used to improve the product and prioritize future features.

Cookies, Analytics, and Website Data

The GuestRecovery website may use basic analytics, logs, or similar technologies to understand website usage, improve performance, monitor security, and evaluate which pages or forms are being used.

If additional analytics, advertising, or tracking tools are added in the future, this policy may be updated to explain those practices.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information handled through GuestRecovery. No system can be guaranteed completely secure, but the service is built with the expectation that private guest feedback and restaurant operating data should not be treated casually.

Restaurants and authorized users are responsible for maintaining the security of their own accounts, devices, internal permissions, and access practices.

Data Retention

GuestRecovery may retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, support restaurants, maintain records, analyze product performance, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and improve the product.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data, restaurant configuration, pilot status, legal requirements, or operational need.

Choices and Requests

Restaurants, authorized users, and guests may contact GuestRecovery about privacy questions or data-related requests. Depending on the nature of the request, we may need to verify identity, confirm the restaurant relationship, or coordinate with the restaurant that collected the feedback.

Because GuestRecovery may operate as a tool used by restaurants, some guest feedback requests may need to be handled by or coordinated with the restaurant that received the feedback.

Children’s Privacy

GuestRecovery is not intended for use by children. The service is designed for restaurants, managers, owners, authorized staff, and guests who are providing feedback about a restaurant experience.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as GuestRecovery develops, as new features are added, or as legal, operational, or product needs change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised update date.

Important note: This Privacy Policy is provided for website and product transparency. It should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before GuestRecovery is used commercially at scale, especially if additional integrations, payment processing, SMS messaging, or jurisdiction-specific privacy obligations are added.

Trust matters

Private guest feedback should feel private, useful, and professionally handled.

GuestRecovery is designed around the private recovery loop: guests share earlier, managers respond faster, and owners get better insight into what improves the restaurant.
