Who we are
Dishboard ("we", "us", "our") is a food cost and margin calculator for restaurant owners and food businesses. Our website is dishboard.co. You can reach us through our Contact page.
What data we collect
We collect only what we need to run the service:
- Account information - your email address and password when you sign up, or your Google account details if you use Google sign-in.
- Workspace data - the recipes, ingredients, menu items, costs, and prices you enter into Dishboard. This data belongs to you.
- Contact form submissions - when you use the contact form on this site, we collect your name, email address, business type (optional), subject, and message. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry, support request, bug report, or feedback. We do not use it for marketing without your separate consent.
- Usage information - basic logs of when you sign in and use the app. We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how pages are used in aggregate. GA4 collects anonymised page views and session data; no personally identifiable information is passed to Google. You can opt out by disabling JavaScript or using a browser extension such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on.
- Payment information - if you subscribe to Pro, payment is handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card details.
How we use your data
- To provide and operate the Dishboard service.
- To send transactional emails (account confirmation, receipts). We do not send marketing emails without your consent.
- To improve the product based on aggregated, anonymous usage patterns.
We do not sell your data. We do not share your data with advertisers.
Third-party services
We use trusted third-party service providers to operate Dishboard, including providers for authentication, cloud data storage, transactional email, payment processing, and hosting infrastructure. We only share the minimum data necessary for each provider to perform its function, and we do not authorise them to use your data for any other purpose.
A current list of sub-processors is available on request via our Contact page.
Data storage and security
Your data is stored on cloud infrastructure in isolated, per-user storage - no other Dishboard user can access your recipes or costs. We use HTTPS for all data in transit.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- Access your data - all your data is visible in your Dishboard workspace.
- Export your data - you can export your costing sheets as PDFs at any time.
- Delete your account - go to Account → Danger zone → Delete account. This permanently removes your Clerk account and all your workspace data from our database.
- Contact us - use our Contact page with any privacy questions or requests.
Cookies
Dishboard uses only functional cookies required for authentication (managed by Clerk). We do not use tracking or advertising cookies.
Children
Dishboard is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you by email. Continued use of Dishboard after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
