Your Privacy

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 20, 2026

Kapara ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website kapara.ca and the physical restaurant located at 7700 Bathurst St, Unit 12, Thornhill, ON L4J 0A7 ("Kapara," the "Restaurant"). This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect when you use our website, how we use it, and the choices you have. It's written for a small local restaurant, not a large platform — if anything here is unclear, just email us and we'll explain plainly.

Information we collect

We collect personal information only when you choose to give it to us, through:

  • Reservation requests — name, phone number, email address, preferred date, party size, occasion, and any comments you add (e.g. dietary needs or seating preferences).
  • Catering and event inquiries — name, phone number, email address, event date, and any details you share about your event.
  • Contact form submissions — name, phone number, email address, and your message.

We do not require an account to use these forms, and we do not collect payment or financial information through kapara.ca — our website does not process payments. If you order food online, you are redirected to Clover, a third-party ordering platform, which has its own privacy policy governing that transaction.

How we use your information

  • To confirm, follow up on, or make changes to a reservation, catering inquiry, or message you sent us.
  • To contact you by phone or email about your request.
  • To improve how we serve guests and respond to feedback.
  • To meet legal, tax, or safety obligations where required.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

Who we share it with

We keep the information you give us to ourselves, with narrow exceptions for the services that keep our website and restaurant running:

  • Email delivery — form submissions trigger an internal notification email to our team via our email provider, so we can respond to you.
  • Google reCAPTCHA — our forms use Google reCAPTCHA to block automated spam submissions. Google may process limited technical data (such as your IP address and browser behaviour) under its ownprivacy policy.
  • Google sign-in (staff only) — our staff administration area uses Google sign-in to verify authorized staff. This does not apply to guests using the public website.
  • Hosting and database providers — the technical infrastructure that stores form submissions securely.

We do not share your information with marketers, data brokers, or unrelated third parties.

Cookies

Our website uses only the minimal cookies necessary for Google reCAPTCHA to function on our forms. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

How long we keep it

We retain reservation, catering, and contact submissions for as long as reasonably needed to respond to your request and keep basic records of guest communications, after which they may be archived or deleted.

Your choices

You can ask us at any time to access, correct, or delete the personal information you've shared with us by emailinginfo@kapara.caor calling (905) 886-7444. We'll respond as quickly as we reasonably can.

Children's privacy

Our website is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices. The "Last updated" date above will always reflect the most recent version.
