Customer Privacy Policy
Customer Details
All we ever require for you to make a standard online booking is a name and a phone number.
We do require an email address when taking credit card details so we can send you a tax invoice.
Your information will only be used by the restaurant to contact you in relation to your booking, unless you actively opt-in to receive marketing.
Why is a phone number needed?
The phone number is the 'unique' field the system uses to identify you.
For example if two people book under the name 'John' we will use the phone
the number to identify one 'John' from another.
Restaurants
Restaurants using our table reservation software are expected to adhere
to our privacy policy and procedures. If you suspect a restaurant has
used your personal information inappropriately please contact us at
support@obee.com.au.
Promotions / Marketing / Special-Offers
When you make a table reservation through obee you can choose to
opt-in to 'Marketing Offers' when entering your details. It is part of our
policy that by default we will never subscribe you to any marketing or
promotional material.
If you do opt-in to either 'SMS' or 'Email' promotions you will only
receive material from the restaurant you are currently booking for.
You will not receive any emails from other restaurants unless you opted
into their promotional material also.
Opt-out: You can opt-out of promotional SMS or email at anytime. All promotional
material sent will have instructions at the bottom informing you of how to
unsubscribe. If you are
having trouble unsubscribing please email us at
support@obee.com.au and we'll
happily remove you manually from the restaurants promotions list. (Please
provide the phone number you used to make the booking and specify which
restaurants you would no longer like to receive promotional material from).
Obee Table Reservations takes your privacy seriously and will not rent or
sell your information to other businesses or 3rd parties.
Security Measures
We are predominantly a web-based company and online security is very important
to us. We employ a number of techniques to help protect your privacy and ensure
reliability for the restaurant owners.
SSL:
(Secure Socket Layer) is a 'encryption' method used to transfer
information securely over the internet. This is the well-proven method and is the same
used by banks and online shops when collecting and protecting your data online.
We use SSL for all bookings, so your name and phone number, has the best possible
protection available.
Image Verification
(CAPTCHA or 'Human Check') is now common practise
in online form submission. Some restaurants may have a short 'verification' process during the
first step of our booking process. This method ensures that a human is using
the form and helps eliminate 'SPAM' or false bookings made by computer 'bots.'
