Privacy Policy

 

EFFECTIVE DATE: 1/1/2022

This Policy describes how P.F. Chang’s collects customer information and uses and shares the information collected. Under this Policy, “Information” means information, including personal information, collected from anywhere, including our restaurant locations in the contiguous United States, our website at www.pfchangs.com and other websites where we post this Policy (collectively, the “Sites”), as well as our other mobile websites, mobile applications, services, tools, and other applications that link to this Policy (collectively, and together with the Sites, the “Services”). This Policy also provides guidance on how to manage the Information that you provide to us. We provide this Policy to help you make an informed decision about whether to continue to access Services. This Policy should be read in conjunction with the Terms of Use located on our Sites, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Our goal is to collect and use only that Information that we think is required for our legitimate business interests, or that helps us to better understand your interests and improve your experience of using the Services and the products and services accessible through or provided by our restaurants.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT OR RECEIVE

Information Collected Directly from You

You can browse our Services without telling us your name or revealing other personal information about yourself. The information that we may receive and collect from you depends on what you do when you access the Services. We do not collect any personal information from you when you use the Services unless you provide us with the personal information voluntarily. For instance, if you create an account for online ordering, make reservations online or via our mobile applications, fill out customer comment cards, participate in a promotion, or join our customer loyalty programs or email lists, you give us your personal information. You may also give us your personal information when requesting that we contact you. For example, account information may include name, date of birth, email address, physical address, mobile number, or similar information. When you create an account or otherwise engage with our Services, you may provide certain additional information such as username and password. You may also provide payment information such as credit or debit card information, and name and billing address.

Surveys and Promotions

From time to time, we may receive Information from you via surveys or contests or sweepstakes. Participation in these surveys, contests or sweepstakes is completely voluntary. Contact information may be used to notify the winners, award prizes and file winners’ information as required by law. Survey information will be used for the purpose(s) of the survey.

Content You Post

Some aspects of the Services are designed to enable you to communicate with others. Any information or content you post when utilizing the Services and social media sites, plug-ins or other applications becomes public information, depending upon your privacy settings, and is subject to redistribution by P.F. Chang’s and other third parties. There is no expectation of privacy when posting content or otherwise participating in such interactive forums and we have no control over how other users may use the information you make public. Therefore, you should exercise caution and discretion when disclosing your personal information in a public submission or online posting.

Information from Social Networks

When using third party social networking services (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+) (each and collectively, a “Social Network”), you may decide to access or connect your activity on our Services with your Social Network information and activity or connect your Social Network activity with our Services. If you permit a connection, P.F. Chang’s (and that Social Network) may be able to identify you and to associate information received pursuant to the connection with information we already have about you. Please review the Social Network’s privacy policy and choices for sharing information of any Social Network connected to our Services.

Mobile Information

We may collect your zip/postal code and information regarding your mobile carrier, regional location and, if you opt in, Geo-location as described in Section 2, below. Data obtained from you in connection with mobile text (SMS) or push notification services may include your cell phone number, your mobile carrier’s name, the date, time and content of your messages, and other information you provide to us.

2. INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

Tracking Technologies

In addition to any Information that you choose to submit to us, we and our business partners may use a variety of tracking technologies such as cookies, web beacons/GIFs, HTML5, embedded scripts, and e-tags/cache browsers/web logs (“Tracking Technologies”), to automatically collect certain information from your computer, mobile, or other device (“Device”) whenever you visit or interact with the Services or third party websites. This information may include your Device identifier, the type and version of Internet browser software you use, and your operating system. We may also collect password information from you when you log in, as well as computer and connection information. During some visits, we may use these tools to measure and collect session information, including page response times, download errors, time spent on certain pages and page interaction and conversion information. Certain features of our Services are only available through the use of Tracking Technologies. Tracking Technologies are used for a variety of purposes, including the following:

Operationally Necessary

We may use Tracking Technologies required for system administration, to prevent fraudulent activity, improve security or allow you to make use of our Services’ functionality.

Performance Related

We may use Tracking Technologies to assess the performance of our Services, including as part of our analytic practices to improve the content offered through the Services. We may use Tracking Technologies to tell us, for example, whether you have visited the Services before or if you are a new visitor, and to help us identify the features in which you may have the greatest interest. We and the third-party technology providers, ad exchanges, ad networks, advertisers, agencies, ad exchanges, and ad servers with which we work use third-party analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics) to evaluate your use of the Services, compile reports on activity, collect demographic data, analyze performance metrics, and collect and evaluate other information relating to the Services and mobile and Internet usage. For example, we use Google to serve third party cookies (such as Google Analytics cookie) to report how our ad impressions and interactions with these ad impressions and ad services are related to visits to the Services. Learn about Google Analytics opt-outs for the web or mobile.

Targeting Related

We may use Tracking Technologies to deliver content, including ads, relevant to your interests on the Services and third-party sites based on how you interact with our advertisements or content as well as to track the content you access. For more information on interest-based advertising and your choices for opting out, see Section 3 (Targeted Advertising).

Location and Geo-location Functionality

Information gathered from your use of the Services may be combined with information from third-party sources to identify your location by state and region (“Regional Location”), which we may use to serve you appropriate local content and advertising. Certain of our mobile applications also have search functionality that gathers aggregate location data about visitors who are in or near our restaurants, and when visitors opt in, allows us to collect information about their precise geographic location (“Geo-location”). We may use GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or cell tower proximity to determine Geo-location. If you agree to have your Geo-location collected, we may use and retain that precise location data to provide you with information about restaurants in your area or carry out marketing and other activities contemplated by our mobile applications and by this Policy. When you have Geo-location software running on your Device, we may only collect that information as controlled by your privacy settings on your Device. For most mobile Devices, you can withdraw your permission for P.F. Chang’s to acquire this information on your location through the Device settings. If you have questions about how to disable your Device’s location services, we recommend you contact your mobile Device service provider or the Device manufacturer.

Cross-Device Tracking

To better understand your purchasing preferences, we may use third party vendors that use Tracking Technologies that recognize and collect information about your Devices that you may use to connect with our Services and the Internet. When these tools are enabled, the data that we and our third-party service providers collect about these Devices is used to enable advertising or other information across Devices to deliver more relevant information to you, or to measure the effectiveness of our Services and advertising across different Devices. When you access our Services on a specific Device, a unique ID is created for that Device that allows us and our third-party vendors to deliver relevant content and advertising based on your interests gathered across multiple sites and applications. This data may be combined with the same information from another browser or Device if you use multiple browsers or Devices. You may opt-out of this tracking information collection for use in serving interest-based ads by going to http://optout.aboutads.info/#!/. Please note that this does not opt you out of being served ads; you will continue to receive ads that are not customized for you. This opt-out applies to the specific Device/browser combination on which you are browsing. To opt-out of other Device/browser combinations, you will need to opt-out of those as well.

3. ADVERTISING & ANALYTICS SERVICES

Interest-Based Advertising

We engage third parties to serve advertisements on our behalf and provide analytics services. These third parties may use Tracking Technologies to collect information about your visits over time and across the Services and other third-party web sites, such as your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked and conversion information, as well as information received from other sources. This information may be used by us and others to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content and Services, deliver targeted advertising to you and better understand your offline and online activity. We use Google interest-based cookies to serve personalized ads to you. To learn more about how Google uses cookies in interest-based advertising, you can visit the Google ad and content network privacy policy located here. Opt out of Google interest-based cookies. To serve our ads, we also use a variety of third-party advertising service providers, including networks, data exchanges, ad servers, analytics providers and others. These third parties may use Tracking Technologies to send directly to your Device the advertisements and marketing messages that appear on the Services. They automatically receive your Device identifier when this happens. Their tools may also limit the number of times you see the same ad and help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These third parties also may use information gathered from your use of the Services to serve targeted, interest-based advertisements to you on third-party websites and applications. The use of these Tracking Technologies by these third parties is subject to their own privacy policies and is not covered by this Policy. Learn more about our other advertising service providers’ data collection practices. Google and some of the advertising service providers we use may be members of the Network Advertising Initiative, which offers a single location to opt out of ad targeting from member companies. If you opt out of receiving targeted ads in this manner, you will continue to receive advertising messages, but they will not be customized to you based on your use of the Services and third-party websites. If you would like more information about advertisers’ use of Tracking Technologies and about your option not to accept them, you can go to www.networkadvertising.org. To learn more about how interest-based information is collected, whether the companies we use are part of an industry network regarding behavioral advertising, or to know your choices about not having information used in this manner, you can go to www.aboutads.info

You also can prevent your receipt of interest-based ads from us on websites by deleting and declining cookies in your browser(s). Please note that the opt-out is cookie-based and will only affect the specific computer or mobile application, and browser or operating system, on which the opt-out is applied. Some newer mobile device operating systems allow you to limit the use of information to deliver interest-based advertising in mobile applications. You can check the settings on your Device for such options in your Device’s operating system.

Alternatively, you may wish to download the Digital Alliance “App Choices” mobile application and follow the instructions provided.

Browser “Do Not Track” Signals

Some third-party browsers provide “do not track” machine-readable signals for websites, which are automatically applied by default and therefore do not necessarily reflect our visitors’ choice as to whether they wish to receive advertisements tailored to their interests. As a result, we do not respond to these signals.

7. YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California Shine the Light

Residents of the State of California have the right to request information from us regarding other companies to whom we have disclosed certain categories of information during the preceding year for the other companies’ direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please use the contact information below.

California Consumer Privacy Act

The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) provides California residents with rights to receive certain disclosures regarding the collection, use, and sharing of “personal information,” as well as rights to know/access, delete, and limit sharing of personal information. The CCPA defines “personal information” to mean “information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.” Certain information we collect may be exempt from the CCPA because it is considered public information (i.e., it is made available by a government entity) or covered by a specific federal privacy law, such as the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

To the extent that we collect personal information that is subject to the CCPA, that information, our practices, and your rights are described below.

Verification

To protect our customers’ personal information, we are required to verify your identify before we can act on your request. We may have a reason under the law why we do not have to comply with your request, or why we may comply with it in a more limited way than you anticipated. If we do, we will explain that to you in our response. Information that we collect for verification purposes will only be used for such purposes.

How to Submit a Request

You may submit a request to exercise your right to know/access or right to delete your personal information through any one of three means:

  1. By visiting your account ("https://www.pfchangs.com/contact-us") page, where you can request and download specific pieces of information we have collected. By logging in to your account to submit the request, you will be able to automatically verify your identity, which will result in faster processing of your request.
  2. By filling out a Consumer Data Request Form available
    https://privacy-pfchangs.truyo.com
  3. By calling us at 866-694-9972.

Verification Procedures

In order to process your request to know/access or delete personal information we collect, disclose, or sell, we must verify your request. We do this by:

  • Asking you to
    • provide personal identifiers we can match against information we may have collected from you previously; and
    • confirm your request using the email or telephone account stated in the request; or
  • Having you submit your request through your account (https://www.pfchangs.com/contact-us) page, which will automatically verify your identity and will result in faster processing of your request.

Authorized Agent

You may authorize another individual or a business registered with the California Secretary of State, called an authorized agent, to make requests on your behalf. We require that you confirm that (1) you have provided the authorized agent written permission to make the request on your behalf, and (2) verify your identity to us directly using the verification procedures above.
