THE REGULAR
Privacy, in plain English.
The Regular is built around real people sharing honest opinions. We believe the same honesty should apply to how information is handled.

Information you share
When you choose to rate a dish, join an early-access list or contact us, you may share information such as your name, email address, restaurant and dish details, and the opinion you submit. Please avoid including sensitive personal information in free-text responses.
How we use information
We use submitted information to understand opinions about individual dishes, improve The Regular, communicate about early access, respond to enquiries, maintain the security of the service and meet legal obligations. We do not sell personal information.
Services we rely on
We may use trusted providers to host the website, collect form responses, send communications and understand site performance. These providers process information only to provide their services to us and are expected to protect it appropriately.
Cookies and analytics
The site may use essential cookies and limited analytics to understand how it is used and to keep it working reliably. Where consent is required, you will be given a choice before non-essential cookies are used.
How long we keep information
We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose it was collected, including to respond to you, operate The Regular and meet legal requirements. We may retain anonymised dish opinions that no longer identify an individual.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, or to object to certain processing. You can also unsubscribe from non-essential emails at any time.
