Tharu Maaru (“Tharu Maaru,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website tharumaaru.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect from visitors and customers, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.
Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Contact and catering inquiry forms. When you submit a form on our Site (for example, a catering or general inquiry form), we collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, event details, and any message you include.
- Online ordering. When you place a pickup order, you are directed to our third-party ordering partner, Toast. Toast collects and processes your order and payment information directly under its own privacy policy; Tharu Maaru does not receive or store your payment card details.
- Automatically collected information. Like most websites, our Site may use cookies and similar technologies, and our hosting and analytics providers may automatically log technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and pages visited, to help the Site function properly and to understand how visitors use it.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to catering and general inquiries submitted through our forms;
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Site;
- Communicate with you about your inquiry, order, or event; and
- Comply with legal obligations and protect the rights, property, and safety of Tharu Maaru and our customers.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Third-Party Services
Our Site relies on a small number of third-party services to operate:
- Toast — for online pickup ordering and payment processing.
- WPForms — to collect and deliver the catering and contact form submissions on our Site.
- Hosting and CDN providers — to host the Site and deliver it securely and quickly.
Each of these providers has its own privacy practices, and we encourage you to review their policies if you have questions about how they handle your information.
