Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

1. Who we are

Taco Crawl London ("we", "us", "our") operates the website tacocrawl.co.uk. We are a discovery platform helping people find taco spots across London. We are not a marketplace, booking platform, or food delivery service.

For privacy enquiries, contact us at hola@tacocrawl.co.uk.

2. What data we collect

Visitors: We do not require registration to browse the site. We may collect standard server logs (IP address, browser type, page visited, timestamp) for security and performance purposes only.

Analytics: We may use privacy-focused analytics tools to understand which pages are visited and how the site is used. We do not use Google Analytics. No personally identifiable information is stored in analytics data.

Contact submissions: If you email us or use a contact form, we store your name, email address, and the content of your message to respond to your enquiry.

3. Trader-submitted data

When a taqueria owner registers or claims a listing, we collect:

  • Business name and trading name
  • Contact name and email address
  • Business address and phone number
  • Website and social media handles
  • Proof of ownership (which may include business documentation you provide)

This data is used solely for verifying and managing your listing. Your contact details are not published publicly. Your business name, address, and social links may appear on your public profile.

4. Venue suggestions

If you submit a venue suggestion through our "Suggest a Spot" form, we collect:

  • The venue name and address you provide
  • Your name and email (optional)
  • Any notes you include

This data is used internally to evaluate whether a venue should be added to the platform. We will not share it externally or contact you without your consent.

5. Payment data

If and when premium listing payments are processed, all payment information (card numbers, billing details) is handled entirely by our payment provider (Stripe). We never receive or store your full card details. We may store a Stripe customer ID for subscription management. Stripe's privacy policy applies to payment processing: stripe.com/gb/privacy.

6. How we use your data

  • To verify and publish taqueria listings
  • To respond to your messages and enquiries
  • To operate and improve the platform
  • To detect and prevent abuse or spam

We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising. We do not share your data with third parties except where required by law or where necessary to operate the service (e.g. our hosting provider).

7. Data retention

We retain trader submission data for as long as a listing exists. We retain contact and suggestion data for up to 12 months. Server logs are retained for up to 30 days.

8. Your rights

You have the right to:

  • Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Object to processing of your data

To exercise any of these rights, email hola@tacocrawl.co.uk with the subject line "Data Request". We will respond within 30 days.

9. Cookies

We use only essential cookies necessary to operate the website (e.g. session management). We do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be noted at the top of this page with a revised date.
