California Privacy Rights
California residents may have certain rights regarding their personal information under applicable California privacy laws.
Depending on the law and whether it applies to Jaji, these rights may include the right to:
- Request information about personal information collected about you
- Request access to certain personal information
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Request deletion of certain personal information
- Request information about categories of third parties to whom information has been disclosed
- Opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information where applicable
- Limit certain uses of sensitive personal information where applicable
- Exercise applicable privacy rights without unlawful discrimination
Not every privacy right applies in every circumstance.
Certain information may also be exempt from deletion or other requests when retention is permitted or required for legal, security, accounting, operational, or other legitimate purposes.
Privacy Requests
To submit a request concerning personal information you have provided to Jaji, please contact us using the information at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.
We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain privacy requests.
Verification may require us to confirm information reasonably associated with your interactions with Jaji.
Where permitted by law, an authorized agent may submit certain privacy requests on behalf of a California resident. We may require verification that the agent has been authorized to act on the resident's behalf.
Global Privacy Control
Some browsers and browser extensions support privacy preference signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC).
Where required by applicable California law, Jaji will treat a recognized and valid privacy preference signal as a request to opt out of applicable sale or sharing of personal information for the browser or device from which the signal is received.
Do Not Track
Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” or “DNT” setting.
Because there is not a universally adopted technical standard governing traditional DNT signals, our website may not respond to traditional Do Not Track browser settings.
This is separate from legally recognized privacy preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, which will be handled where required by applicable law.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or as necessary to:
- Provide requested services
- Maintain appropriate business records
- Resolve disputes
- Maintain security
- Meet accounting or operational requirements
- Comply with legal obligations
- Enforce agreements
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
Data Security
Jaji takes reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical measures designed to protect information associated with our website and restaurant operations.
However, no website, electronic transmission, online service, or data-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should use reasonable care when transmitting information online.
Children's Privacy
Jaji's website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13.
If we become aware that information from a child under 13 has been collected through our website without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Employment Information
If you submit employment-related information to Jaji, that information may be used to evaluate employment opportunities, communicate with applicants, manage recruiting activities, and maintain appropriate employment records.
Employment-related information may be subject to additional privacy practices or notices where required by applicable law.
