Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

FunWorks.xyz (the "Website" or "Blog") is operated by FunWorks, located at 5772 Park Blvd, Austin, TX 78701. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our blog, which focuses on the restaurant industry. Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms, please do not access the site.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways: information you voluntarily provide to us, and information automatically collected when you interact with our blog.

1.1 Information You Voluntarily Provide

  • Contact Form Submissions: When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and any message you include. We use this solely to respond to your inquiry.
  • Comments: When you leave a comment on a blog post, we collect your name (or display name), email address, and the content of your comment. Your email is not publicly displayed; only your name and comment appear.

1.2 Information Automatically Collected

  • Cookies and Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience. These may include session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain until deleted).
  • Basic Analytics Data: We collect non-personal information such as your browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and the date/time of your visit. This helps us understand how our blog is used and improve its content.
  • IP Address: An anonymized version of your IP address may be collected for security and analytics purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your inquiries submitted via contact forms.
  • To display and manage comments on our blog posts.
  • To analyze trends and improve the content, layout, and user experience of our blog.
  • To ensure the security and integrity of our website.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising targeting or any commercial purposes beyond operating this blog.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to help websites function effectively. We use the following types of cookies on FunWorks.xyz:

  • Essential Cookies: Necessary for the basic functionality of the website, such as remembering your comment preferences.
  • Analytics Cookies: Used to collect anonymous data about how visitors use our blog (e.g., which pages are most popular). We use a privacy-focused analytics service that does not track you across other websites.
  • Comment Preference Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name and email in cookies for convenience. These last for one year.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. However, disabling cookies may affect some features of our blog. We do not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, or any form of behavioral tracking.

4. Comments

When visitors leave comments on our blog, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (if any) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

We reserve the right to moderate comments to ensure they are respectful and relevant to the restaurant industry topics discussed. Comments containing spam, offensive language, or promotional content may be removed.

5. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services that collect, monitor, and analyze data to improve our blog. These include:

  • Analytics Providers: We use a basic analytics tool (e.g., a self-hosted or privacy-compliant service) to understand site traffic. These providers do not receive your personal information beyond anonymized data.
  • Comment System: Our comments may rely on a third-party service (e.g., a native WordPress system or a privacy-respecting plugin). Any data shared with such services is limited to what is necessary for comment functionality.

We do not integrate social media login buttons, advertising networks, or any third-party services that track your behavior across other websites. We do not use Google Analytics or similar tools that share data with advertising platforms.

6. Data Retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy:

  • Contact form submissions: Retained for up to 12 months after the last communication, unless a longer retention is required by law.
  • Comments: Retained indefinitely so that we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. You may request deletion of your comment at any time.
  • Analytics data: Retained in aggregate form for up to 26 months.

You can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

  • Access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification: You can request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within 30 days. We may ask for verification of your identity before processing your request.

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include secure server hosting, HTTPS encryption, and regular security updates. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
