III. HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

a. Information Shared With Restaurants and Their Affiliates

When you make a request through our Sites or the restaurant, such as a restaurant reservation, joining a restaurant waitlist, or making a payment to a restaurant through our Sites or if you are a guest of the person making the request, we automatically provide certain categories of your information to the restaurant to facilitate such request. For requests to dine, this information may include your name, profile, time and date of visit, party size, your phone number, your dining preferences, guest information, any special requests , information or comments that you choose to submit (if any ) and your email address. Your information is provided to the restaurant, just as it would if you contacted the restaurant directly. If you provide a mobile phone number in connection with your request, restaurants may send you text messages regarding your request. Some restaurants also require you to provide credit or debit card account information to secure your reservation.

When you make a request or are a guest of the person making a request, we may also share with the restaurant additional information about you, such as information about your dining activity and history, and/or information that we collect from you and third parties. Depending on where you reside, and as permitted by applicable law, we or the restaurant may additionally share certain of your information with such restaurant’s affiliated restaurants (such as affiliated brands), restaurant group and/or restaurants with the same brand or parent-brand (collectively, such restaurant’s “ restaurant group”), or other entities associated with such restaurant (such as the parent entity of the restaurant group or affiliated hotels) and/or their service providers (collectively, the associated entities and service providers, such restaurant’s "restaurant affiliates ") under Mokanta’s programs. Specifically, we or the restaurant may share your information (such as meal or seating preferences and special occasions) with other restaurants in the same restaurant group to enhance the hospitality such restaurant group provides you when you dine with them (such as, trying to seat you by a window, if you previously expressed a preference for window seating) (“customized service”) and to improve the restaurant’s table and shift planning. In addition to providing you with more customized service, we or the restaurant may, as permitted by applicable law, share your information with such restaurant’s restaurant affiliates to support operations, such as to perform analytics, tailor marketing to you, support a loyalty program that you have chosen to participate in, and improve their services. The Mokanta entity identified here would be the services provider/data processor of the restaurants under these Mokanta programs. For more information, please feel free to contact the restaurants at which you dine or book, or Mokanta as detailed in the Contact Us section below. To learn more about your choices related to how we share your information with restaurant groups and restaurant affiliates under our programs, please see the Your Choices section below.

We may share with restaurants summary reports of feedback from diners. If you provide comments about a restaurant through our Sites, these comments may be shared with or may be accessible by that restaurant and the restaurant may respond to you. We will not tie your comments with other information that can identify you, but a restaurant may be able to tell who you are from your comments, particularly if you give your name in the comments or provide contact information, such as an email address.

b. Information Shared With Gift Card Merchants

If you purchase a Merchant Gift Card through our Sites, we notify the applicable issuer of the Merchant Gift Card and provide the issuer with certain related information about your purchase or redemption, including your name, the gift card recipient's name, and the amount of the Merchant Gift Card.

By submitting your credit or debit card account information through our Sites, to the extent permitted by applicable law, you expressly consent to the sharing of your information with restaurants, third-party payment processors, and other third-party service providers (including, but not limited to, vendors who provide fraud detection services to us and other third parties), and you further agree to the following terms.

When you use a credit or debit card to secure a reservation through our Sites, we provide your credit or debit card account information (including card number and expiration date, but excluding the CVV number) to our third-party payment service providers and the applicable restaurant.

When you initially provide your credit or debit card account information through our Sites in order to use our restaurant payment services, we provide your credit or debit card account information to our third-party payment service providers. As explained in the Mokanta Terms of Use, these third parties may store your credit or debit card account information so you can use our restaurant payment services through our Sites in the future to the extent permitted by local law.

If you purchase Mokanta Gift Cards or Merchant Gift Cards from us, we collect the credit or debit card account information from you. We share this information with our third-party payment service providers in order to process your payments. These third parties may also store your credit or debit card information, other than your CVV number, for your future use on our Sites, to the extent permitted by local law. Your CVV number will not be stored and must be re-entered for each order.

For information about the security of your credit or debit card account information, see the Security of Your Information section, below.

You play an important role in keeping your information secure. You should not share your user name, password, or other security information for your Mokanta account with anyone. If we receive instructions using your user name and password, we will consider that you have authorized the instructions.
