Ask a restaurant for allergen answers

Name a place you would like to be able to check before you go. We keep a private tally of which restaurants families are asking about, and we use it when we decide who to approach next.

This is not a listing and not a review. The restaurant you name has not agreed to anything, and we never tell a restaurant that you, specifically, asked. We publish none of this.

What do you need to avoid?

Tick as many as apply. These are stored with the restaurant name and town you typed — and with your email address, if you give one below.

One use only, and only if you want it: an address is kept on the same row as the allergens you ticked, so that we can tell you if this restaurant builds an allergen menu with us. Nothing else, and no list. Leaving it blank leaves nothing on the row that names you.

What we keep

One row in our database, holding all of this together:

  • The restaurant name and town you typed, and the time.
  • Which allergens you ticked.
  • Your email address, if you choose to give one. If you do, it sits on the same row as the allergens you ticked, so that row is a list of allergens with an address next to it. If you leave the field blank there is no address on the row and nothing that names you.
  • A scrambled fingerprint of your connection, so one person cannot be counted twice. It is not your IP address and it cannot be turned back into one, and we erase it 24 hours after your request, which is as long as it is any use to us.

That is the whole record. We do not ask for your name or your age, we do not want anything about anyone's medical history, and we do not store your IP address, your browser or where you came from. If you would rather not leave an email, the request counts just the same.

We delete a request 12 months after it is made. To have yours deleted sooner, email privacy@alleriq.app with the restaurant name and town you typed and we will remove it — you do not need an account, and you do not have to tell us anything else. The privacy policy says the same thing at more length.
