Information you provide
Postcode
If you enter a postcode, it is used to help construct a relevant search on a third-party takeaway platform. We do not use your postcode to create a personal profile.
When you select an ordering platform, your postcode may be included in the search sent to that platform. The platform will process it under its own Privacy Policy.
Information collected automatically
Our hosting provider may automatically process basic technical information when you visit the website. This can include your IP address, browser and device type, pages requested, timestamps and security information.
This information is used to deliver the website, maintain security, prevent abuse, diagnose technical problems and ensure the website loads reliably.
Google Analytics
If you consent to Analytics, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use Pick My Takeaway and which features are useful.
Google Analytics may process information including:
- Pages visited
- Interactions with the takeaway picker
- Approximate geographical location
- Browser, operating system and device information
- Visit duration and referral information
We have disabled Google advertising signals and advertising personalisation within our website implementation. We do not send Google names, email addresses, postcodes or other information intended to identify you directly.
Google Analytics is not loaded unless you accept Analytics through our cookie controls.
You can readGoogle’s Privacy Policy.
Affiliate links and Awin
Pick My Takeaway participates in affiliate marketing programmes, including the Awin affiliate network.
Some links on this website are affiliate links. If you click one of these links and subsequently make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate advertising is clearly identified on the website before you interact with it.
If you consent to Affiliate tracking, links may redirect through Awin before taking you to the retailer. Awin may process pseudonymous information concerning the referral, including:
- The referring website and publisher
- The advertisement or link clicked
- The date and time of the click
- The advertiser being visited
- General country and device information
- Whether the referral subsequently resulted in a purchase
This information is used to attribute purchases, calculate commission, provide reports and prevent fraud.
If you reject Affiliate tracking, links to MORiSH use the ordinary MORiSH website address instead of an Awin tracking link. We will not receive commission from purchases made through the ordinary link.
You can readAwin’s Privacy Policy and Awin’s cookie information.
Cookies and local storage
Privacy preferences
We use local storage named pmt_consent_v1 to remember your privacy choices. It records whether you accepted Analytics and Affiliate tracking, along with the date on which the preferences were saved.
This storage is necessary to remember and respect your choices. It remains in your browser until you change your preferences, clear your browser data or remove it through your browser settings.
Google Analytics cookies
If you accept Analytics, Google Analytics may set cookies including
_ga and _ga_<container-id>. These
are used to distinguish visits and maintain session information.
Their default expiry is up to two years, although browsers may apply
shorter limits.
Awin tracking
If you accept Affiliate tracking and click an affiliate link, Awin and the relevant advertiser may set or access cookies and use similar technologies to attribute the referral.
Awin affiliate cookies commonly last for approximately 30 days, although some Awin or advertiser tracking technologies may last for up to one year. The exact duration can vary by advertiser and tracking method.
Managing your choices
You can accept, reject or customise optional technologies when the privacy notice first appears.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by selecting Cookie preferences in the website footer. Rejecting Analytics also instructs the website to disable Analytics and remove accessible Google Analytics cookies.
Links to other websites
Pick My Takeaway links to third-party websites, including takeaway ordering platforms and retailers. When you follow one of these links, you leave Pick My Takeaway.
Those websites operate under their own privacy policies and cookie practices. We are not responsible for how third-party websites process your information.
Our legal bases
Where technical information is processed to operate, secure and maintain the website, our lawful basis is our legitimate interests in running a secure and reliable service.
Where consent is required for Google Analytics, Awin affiliate tracking or other optional technologies, our lawful basis is your consent. You may withdraw that consent at any time.
How long information is retained
We do not create personal user accounts or store personal profiles. Hosting and security logs are retained only for the period required by our hosting provider for security and operational purposes.
Google Analytics information is retained according to the retention settings configured in our Google Analytics account. Awin states that it generally retains affiliate tracking data for 36 months.
International processing
Google, Awin and their service providers may process information in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where required, those organisations use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, as described in their respective privacy policies.
