Privacy policy
Last updated October 3, 2026
This policy explains what AfroTreats collects through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
We collect only what you choose to give us, plus basic technical information your browser sends when you visit:
- Contact details you enter in our message form: your name, email address and, if you give it, your phone number.
- Your text message choices. The form has two optional boxes, one for non-marketing texts and one for marketing texts. We record which ones you tick.
- What you tell us when you call, text or email us.
- Technical information such as your IP address and browser type, which our hosting and form providers process to serve pages and protect them from abuse.
We do not sell your personal information, and this website has no advertising or analytics trackers.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to answer your questions, deal with your food order inquiries, tell you where the truck will be, send the text messages you agreed to, and keep this website secure. We do not use it for anything else.
SMS / Text Messaging and Your Consent
Our text messaging program is called AfroTreats Text Messages.
How you opt in. You agree to receive text messages from AfroTreats by giving us your mobile number and ticking a text message consent box on our message form. The boxes are unticked until you tick them, and the non-marketing and marketing boxes are separate, so you can agree to one without the other. Agreeing to texts is not a condition of buying anything from us.
What we send. Non-marketing messages relate to what you asked us about: replies to your questions, your food order inquiries and order details, pickup information, and event or market schedules. If you separately ticked the box agreeing to marketing messages, we may also send promotional messages such as special offers, discounts and news about new menu items. You can opt out of either kind at any time.
Frequency and cost. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply, depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
How you opt out. Reply STOP at any time. We will send one confirmation and then stop texting that number. To opt back in later, reply START. Reply HELP for help. Full details are in our Terms of Service.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our own pages set no cookies. The message form is provided by our customer messaging platform (LeadConnector), and it may set cookies needed for the form to work and to prevent spam. The form asks for your cookie consent where required. You can refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings, though the form may not work without them. We do not respond to "Do Not Track" signals, because there is no common standard for them.
How We Share Information
We never share your information in exchange for money. It is shared only with the service providers that run this website and our messages: our host (Cloudflare, see Cloudflare’s privacy policy) and our customer messaging platform. Each may use it only to provide that service to us. We also share it if the law requires.
How Long We Keep Your Information
We keep your details only as long as we need them to answer you and keep the records the law requires. Text message consent records are kept while you stay opted in, and for a reasonable time afterwards so we can show when consent was given and withdrawn.
Data Security Practices
This website is served only over an encrypted HTTPS connection, so what you submit is encrypted in transit. Your details are kept in password-protected accounts that only the people who answer you can open. No method of sending or storing data online is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect it and will tell you of any breach as the law requires.
Your Rights and Choices
- Unsubscribe from text messages: reply STOP.
- Unsubscribe from email: contact us and we will stop.
- See, update or correct the information we hold about you.
- Delete your information, where we are not required to keep it.
To make any of these requests, contact us using the details below.
Children’s Privacy
You must be 18 or older to send us your details or agree to text messages. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you think a child has sent us their details, contact us and we will delete them.
Changes to This Policy
If we change this policy, we will post the new version here and update the date at the top.
