Privacy Policy
Popina Restaurant Supply ("Popina," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the categories of information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding our practices.

2. Information We Collect
Information you provide
When you call or email us, submit the contact form on the Site, or apply for a position, you may provide information such as your name, business name, email address, phone number, delivery address and the contents of your message or application.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the Site, we and our hosting provider may automatically collect limited technical information including IP address, browser type, device type, referring URL, pages viewed and timestamps. This information is used in aggregate form to operate, secure and improve the Site.
Information from third parties
We may receive information from credit references, payment processors and shipping carriers in the course of fulfilling orders for business customers.
3. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries, quotes and product requests;
- Process and deliver wholesale orders;
- Operate, maintain, secure and improve the Site;
- Evaluate job applications and communicate with candidates;
- Send transactional messages (order confirmations, delivery updates, invoices); and

4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
- Service providers who support our business (hosting, email delivery, payment processing, delivery and logistics) — only as needed to perform services on our behalf;
- Professional advisors such as accountants and attorneys, under appropriate confidentiality obligations;
- Government authorities or other third parties when required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, property or safety of Popina, our customers or others; and
- Successors in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of business assets.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Site uses a small number of strictly necessary cookies to deliver pages and remember basic preferences. We do not currently use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect Site functionality.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with legal and accounting requirements, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary by data category.
7. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. No system, however, is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of any information transmitted to or stored by us.
8. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict use of your personal information, to obtain a portable copy, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at alparslan@therealpopina.com. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.
9. California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA"), as amended by the CPRA, provides additional rights including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete, the right to correct, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. As stated above, we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. See our Do Not Sell My Info page for more detail.
10. Children's Privacy
The Services are intended for business customers and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn we have collected such information, we will delete it.
11. International Visitors
The Services are operated from the United States. If you access the Services from outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the U.S., which may have different data-protection laws than your country of residence.
