​​​Privacy Policy for POS Center Boston Applications 

This Privacy Policy describes how POS Center Boston ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information through our mobile applications developed for our merchant partners (the "Apps").

1. Information We Collect Depending on the specific App you use, we may collect:

Personal Identifiers: Such as your name and phone number to identify orders. You may also optionally provide an email address for order confirmations and account-related notifications.

Delivery Address: The street address you manually enter is collected only when you request delivery services.

Transaction Data: Details of the products you purchase through the App.

Camera Access (On-Device Only): The App requests permission to access your device's camera solely to scan QR codes related to your orders (such as available coupons). Camera images are processed in real time within the App and are never recorded, stored, transmitted, or shared. You may decline this permission at any time in your device settings; only the QR-scanning feature will be unavailable.

Diagnostic and Crash Data: We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect error and crash reports. This data may include device state information, unique device identifiers, and technical details about the application's state when an unexpected error or crash occurs.

2. Purpose of Collection We use this information to:

Provide core App functionality (ordering, payment, and delivery).

Manage loyalty rewards and user accounts.

Facilitate communication between you and the specific merchant (e.g., the restaurant).

 

Monitor App Stability: To identify, diagnose, and resolve technical issues and crashes, ensuring a reliable and stable application performance.

3. Data Sharing We do not sell your personal data.

 

Information is shared strictly with the merchant partner associated with the App you are using to fulfill your request.

 

Third-Party Service Providers: We share non-personal diagnostic and crash data (such as device state, error stack traces, and the merchant identifier associated with the build) with Google (via Firebase Crashlytics) strictly for the purpose of error tracking, debugging, and improving App stability.

Firebase Analytics: We use Google Firebase Analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (such as feature popularity and app performance). The SDK automatically collects approximate location (derived from IP address, at the country/region level), device model, operating system version, language, network type, and in-app screen views. This data is associated with a Google-generated installation ID and is used by us solely in aggregate form; we do not use it to identify individual users.

4. Push Notifications and Device Tokens

 

When you install the App, Firebase Cloud Messaging (a Google service) generates a unique device token to enable push notifications. We store this token on our servers to send you promotional offers, menu updates, and operational notifications related to our restaurant. The token does not identify you personally and cannot be used to access your other apps or contacts. You may disable notifications at any time in your device settings, and the token is automatically deleted when you uninstall the App. In addition to restaurant-specific notifications, you may occasionally receive service-wide announcements from POS Center Boston (such as scheduled maintenance windows or holiday hours). You may disable all notifications at any time in your device settings

 

5. Anonymous Authentication

To securely associate your device token with our notification servers, the App creates a Firebase Anonymous Authentication session, which generates a randomly assigned identifier. This identifier does not contain any personal information, is not tied to your Google account or any identity you have provided, and exists solely to validate communication between your device and our backend. The identifier is automatically released when you uninstall the App.

 

6. Security We use HTTPS encryption to protect your data during transmission.
