Privacy Policy
Effective June 11, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Rasa Bowls (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and shares personal information when you use our website to browse our menu and place pickup orders. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
- Order & contact details — your name and mobile phone number, which you provide to place a pickup order and verify it.
- Order history — the items, options, quantities, prices, and pickup time of your orders.
- Your cart — items you add are stored in your browser (and, if you sign in, on our servers so your cart follows you across devices).
- Communications — the one-time verification code we text you, and any messages you send us.
We do not collect or store your payment card details on our servers; payments are handled by our payment processor.
How we use your information
- To prepare and fulfill your pickup orders.
- To send you a one-time SMS code to verify your phone number and your order.
- To provide customer support and respond to your requests.
- To operate, secure, and improve our service.
- To comply with legal, tax, and accounting obligations.
Text messages (SMS)
When you provide your phone number, we send you a one-time verification code by SMS to confirm your number and order. Message and data rates may apply, and message frequency varies. We do not send marketing texts without your separate consent. You can reply STOP to opt out of non-essential messages and HELP for help.
We do not share your mobile phone number or SMS opt-in information with any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Phone numbers are used only to deliver the verification codes you request, via our messaging provider (Twilio), and are never sold.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it only with service providers who help us run the business, and only as needed:
- Square — point-of-sale and order/payment processing.
- Twilio — sending SMS verification codes.
- Google Maps — the map shown on our site (loaded from Google).
- Hosting providers — to run our website and database.
We may also disclose information to comply with the law, enforce our terms, protect our rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer.
Data retention
We keep order and transaction records for as long as needed to operate the business and to meet legal, tax, and accounting requirements. After that period, we delete or de-identify personal information such as your name and phone number while retaining non-identifying transaction records.
Your choices & rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and to ask how it is used or shared. California residents may have additional rights under California privacy law. We will honor verified requests, subject to exceptions that allow us to keep records needed to complete transactions or meet legal obligations.
To exercise any of these, contact us using the details below. We will not discriminate against you for making a request.
Children's privacy
Our site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version here with an updated effective date.
