What Fresh Dash Receives From Stripe

What Fresh Dash Shares With Stripe

Stripe and its sub-processors may store and process your data on servers located in the United States and other countries. By using our payment functionality, you acknowledge that your payment data may be transferred outside your country of residence. Stripe is certified under PCI DSS Level 1, SOC 2 Type II, and ISO 27001. For details on Stripe's data practices, see Stripe's Privacy Policy.

PCI DSS Scope: Because Fresh Dash uses Stripe's hosted payment elements, we do not store, process, or transmit full cardholder data. Our PCI DSS compliance scope is limited to SAQ-A.

SMS & Text Messaging Privacy:

When you opt in to receive text messages (SMS) from FreshDashMarket, we collect and store your mobile phone number, your carrier's name, and the date/time of your opt‑in consent. This information is used only to deliver the text messages you have requested (e.g., order updates, promotional offers, or alerts).

We will never sell, rent, or share your mobile opt‑in data or consent status with any third party or affiliate for their own marketing purposes. Your consent to receive SMS messages is not shared with any outside organization.

No third‑party lead lists or purchased phone numbers are used for SMS marketing. All SMS recipients have provided direct, explicit consent to FreshDashMarket through a compliant opt‑in mechanism (e.g., checking an unchecked box on our website or mobile app).

You may revoke your consent at any time by replying STOP to any message. For help, reply HELP. Standard message and data rates may apply. For questions about how we handle SMS data, contact us at hi@freshdashmarket.com.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for various purposes, including:

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or share your personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA / CPRA, including for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not currently use any third-party advertising pixels (such as Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, or Google Ads conversion tracking). Should this change in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide a clearly labeled opt-out before any such sharing begins.

We disclose your information to the following recipients, distinguishing between Service Providers (bound by written contracts limiting use to the services they provide for us) and Third Parties (independent recipients):

Service Providers (not "sale" or "share" under CCPA / CPRA)

Other Recipients

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your interaction with our Services. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. We may use session cookies (expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (remain until deleted). These technologies help us operate our Services, remember your preferences, analyze usage, and for advertising purposes.

You can typically control cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may affect the functionality of our Services.

You have certain choices and rights regarding your personal information:

7.1 Your California Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):

Right to Know

You may request to know what categories of personal information we have collected, the sources of that information, the business or commercial purposes for collection, the categories of third parties with whom we share PI, and the specific pieces of PI we hold about you. See Section 2.1 above for the categorical disclosures.

Right to Delete

You may request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to exceptions permitted by law (e.g., legal retention obligations for tax records, fraud prevention, completion of pending transactions).

Right to Correct

You may request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you. Upon receiving a verifiable request, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the inaccurate information and respond within 45 days. You can also self-correct most account information by signing in to your account.

Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing

You may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information at any time. As stated in Section 4, we do not currently sell or share your PI for cross-context behavioral advertising, but we provide an opt-out mechanism regardless:

Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

You may request that we limit our use and disclosure of your sensitive PI (as described in Section 2.2) to the purposes necessary to provide the Services. We do not currently use sensitive PI for purposes beyond what is necessary, but you may still submit a request via our Your Privacy Choices page.

Right to Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA / CPRA rights.
