Privacy Policy
Effective date: November 8, 2026
San Antonio Food Notebook describes information handling for botikapearl.com here. The publication is separate from any former restaurant and has no access to its booking or customer records. Direct privacy questions about this website to [email protected].
Technical requests
Delivering a page can generate records including an internet address, time, requested path, browser characteristics, referring address and response status. Infrastructure uses these details to provide content, investigate errors and protect against misuse. Reading a food guide does not create a reservation or disclose a dietary requirement to a restaurant.
Information in email
A message can include a sender address, supplied name, text and attachments. Relevant details help us assess an editorial enquiry and document its resolution. A correction normally needs a page reference and public evidence, not booking confirmations, payment information or medical details. Please avoid sending private information about other diners or staff.
Reasons for handling records
Necessary processing supports delivery and protection of the publication. Where required by law, legitimate interests may be the basis after considering the effect on readers. Voluntary correspondence is handled to address the issue raised, and legal obligations may require some records to be retained. Optional processing requiring consent must have an appropriate explanation and choice before it starts.
Cookies and choices
Essential storage may support security or requested site functions. Optional analytics, advertising, affiliate tracking and newsletters are not enabled in the current setup. Browser privacy controls allow inspection and removal of stored items. Where an optional activity relies on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time without changing the lawfulness of processing completed earlier.
Providers and disclosure
Hosting, email and security suppliers may process the records needed to perform their functions. Access should remain relevant to the work being supplied. A binding legal requirement or investigation of harmful activity may justify additional disclosure. Editorial correspondence is not sold to venues and does not add its sender to a promotional list.
Retention and location
Technical records are kept for justified operational and security purposes. Messages may remain while a correction is considered and for a proportionate period to record the outcome or meet legal duties. Providers may use infrastructure beyond the country where a visitor lives. Regulated international transfers must have an appropriate lawful mechanism and safeguards.
Requests and complaints
Applicable privacy law may provide rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or receive personal information, or object to certain uses. Conditions and exceptions may affect those rights. Explain a request through the contact address without unnecessary sensitive documents; proportionate verification may be needed. You may complain to the relevant data protection regulator or supervisory authority in your jurisdiction, whether or not you contact us first.
Security and other websites
Reasonable measures support limited access and protection of records, but complete online security is not guaranteed. San Antonio Food Notebook does not knowingly solicit personal information from children. Restaurants, booking platforms and other linked services use their own privacy practices. Review those before sharing details elsewhere. This notice and its effective date will be updated when our information practices materially change.
