Privacy policy

PourWire (pourwire.com) sells a daily feed of restaurants and bars about to open, built from public liquor license and permit filings. This page says what we collect about you, why, and who handles it for us. Questions or requests: tq@pourwire.com.

What we collect

• Your email address and the metro and trade you pick, when you start a trial, sign up, or ask for the sample wire. If you sign in with Google we receive your email address and name from Google, nothing else.
• Billing details if you add a card. Stripe collects and stores the card; we only see the card brand, last 4 digits and your subscription status.
• Usage: pages you view, links you click in our emails, and how you arrived (referrer and campaign tags), stored with your account so we can tell which parts of the product are used. We also use Google Analytics, which sets its own cookies.
• Cookies: a sign-in cookie, a short-lived cookie that remembers the metro you picked, and a first-visit attribution cookie. We don't use advertising cookies.
• Emails you send us and replies to our emails.
• Business contact details from public sources: if we emailed you about PourWire without you signing up, we found your work email on a public business listing or website. Each of those emails has an unsubscribe link, and we stop on request.

How we use it

• To run your trial or subscription: send the wire, show the dashboard, bill you, and email you before any charge.
• To email you about the product: a few onboarding and trial emails. Every marketing email has an unsubscribe link that works in one click.
• To improve the product, using the usage data above.

We don't sell your personal information and we don't share it with advertisers.

Who processes it for us

• Amazon Web Services: hosting and database (United States).
• Stripe: payments and subscriptions.
• Resend: sending email.
• Google: Google Analytics and, if you use it, Google sign-in.

Data about venues and owners

The feed itself comes from public government records: liquor license applications, building and health permits. These records can include a business owner's name and the business contact details filed with the agency. We show them as they appear in the source record, with a link back to it. If you are named in a record and want it corrected or removed from PourWire, email us and we will act on it within 30 days. The agency's own record is not changed by this.

How long we keep it

Account and billing records stay while you have an account and for as long as tax and accounting rules require after that. Usage events are kept while we run the service, unless you ask us to delete yours.

Your choices

• Unsubscribe from any email with the link in it.
• Cancel or pause your subscription from Settings.
• Ask for a copy of your data, a correction, or deletion of your account by emailing tq@pourwire.com. We answer within 30 days.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we update the date above and tell subscribers by email.
