Website Visitors

Like most website operators, DineHere collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. DineHere's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how DineHere's visitors use its website. From time to time, DineHere may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

DineHere also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://www.dinehereapp.com blog posts. DineHere only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.
