3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

MenuScout USA and the third-party services used on our website may use cookies, pixels, tags, or similar technologies, depending on the services enabled.

Cookies are small files stored on your device that can help websites remember preferences, maintain functionality, understand traffic, measure performance, and support advertising.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling certain cookies may affect how some website features work.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate consent choices before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

Third-party analytics and advertising providers may use their own technologies according to their respective privacy policies and settings.

4. Google Analytics and Advertising

MenuScout USA may use third-party analytics or advertising services, including Google services, if they are enabled on our website.

If Google AdSense or another advertising service is used, the relevant provider may process information such as IP addresses, cookie identifiers, browser or device information, and interactions with advertisements. This information may be used to deliver advertisements, measure advertising performance, limit repeated advertisements, or personalize advertising where permitted by applicable settings and consent requirements.

Advertising practices may vary depending on your location, available privacy controls, and the services in use.

For more information about Google’s advertising technologies and data practices, visit Google’s Privacy & Terms.

You can review available advertising personalization settings through Google Ad Settings.

The use of Google Analytics, Google AdSense, or other third-party services may change over time. We aim to keep this policy consistent with the services actually used on our website.

5. Log Files

Our hosting provider or security tools may maintain server log files when you visit MenuScout USA.

These logs may include IP addresses, browser types, internet service provider information, timestamps, referring pages, and other technical details.

Log information may be used to troubleshoot technical problems, maintain website security, investigate suspicious activity, monitor performance, and understand general usage patterns.

Server logs are generally used for operational and security purposes rather than to identify visitors personally. However, some technical information may qualify as personal information under applicable law.

We may also disclose information when required by law, in response to valid legal requests, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or to investigate suspected fraud, abuse, or security incidents.

We do not claim that every listed category of service is active at all times. The information processed depends on the tools and services actually enabled on our website.

We take reasonable steps to help protect information submitted through our website against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting information over the internet or storing information electronically is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining website security, resolving disputes, and meeting applicable legal obligations.

The retention period may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, the services processing it, and any legal requirements that apply.

Information that is no longer reasonably required may be deleted, anonymized, or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable requirements and our operational practices.
