Privacy Policy

Blu Cat Coffee (“we”, “us”) is a small-batch coffee roaster in the Dallas–Fort Worth area. This policy explains what we collect when you use blucatcoffee.com, why, and the choices you have.

What we collect

• Your account: your name, email address, and password (stored only as a secure hash), and optionally a profile picture.
• Contact details: your mobile phone number, mailing address, and birthday (month and day only). A last name, phone number, and address are needed to reserve coffee.
• Reservations and reviews: the coffee you reserve, your pickup choice and notes, and reviews you write about coffee you've picked up.
• Newsletter: your email address and when you subscribed, if you join our email list.
• Text message consent: if you opt in to texts, the number, the date and time, the wording you agreed to, and the browser and network address it came from, as a record of your consent.
• Technical information: basic logs and, if you accept cookies, information about how visitors use the site.

How we use it

• To run your account and hold, confirm, and hand over the coffee you reserve.
• To contact you about your reservations by email and, if you opt in, by text.
• To send our newsletter if you subscribe. Every newsletter has an unsubscribe link.
• To improve our roasts using your reviews, and to keep the site secure.

We don't sell your personal information.

Text messages

We only text you about your reservations, and only if you verify your number and opt in on your profile. We don't share your mobile number or text message consent with anyone for their own marketing. No mobile information is shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Our text messaging provider handles your number only to deliver our messages. Reply STOP to any text to opt out. See our SMS Terms.

Who helps us

We use a few service providers to run the site. They handle your information only to provide their service to us: website hosting (Vercel), our database and photo storage (Supabase), email delivery (Resend), and text message delivery (Twilio). We may also share information if the law requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep your account details while you have an account. We keep reservation, review, and consent records as long as we need them for our business and legal obligations, including proof of text message consent and opt-outs.

Your choices

• Update your name, phone, address, birthday, and picture any time on your profile.
• Turn text messages off on your profile, or reply STOP to any text.
• Unsubscribe from the newsletter with the link in any newsletter email.
• Ask us to see or delete your information by emailing info@blucatcoffee.com.

Children

Our site isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date above and, for important changes, let account holders know.
