Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 3, 2026
1. Introduction
HandyCafe, LLC ("we", "us", "our") operates the HandyCafe internet cafe management software and the handycafe.com website. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and protect your information.
2. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you purchase a subscription, we collect your email address, name and payment information. Payment processing is handled by Stripe; we do not store your credit card details.
Software Usage Data
Our software periodically contacts our servers to verify license status. During this process, we receive your product key, serial number, IP address, software version and operating system information.
Website Analytics
We use cookies and analytics services to understand how visitors use our website. This includes IP address, browser type, pages visited and referral source.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To verify and manage your software license
- To process subscription payments and provide customer support
- To deliver software updates and filter database updates
- To improve our products and services
- To send important notices about your account or subscription
4. Marketing Communications
If you have created an account or subscribed at handycafe.com, we may send you marketing emails about new features, pricing changes, product launches and related offers. We send these messages in compliance with the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act, the EU GDPR and Canada's CASL.
Every marketing email includes a clear unsubscribe link in the footer. One click is enough; no login is required. We also support RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe, which lets your email client (Gmail, Apple Mail, Outlook) remove you with a single tap directly from your inbox.
Once you opt out, we stop sending marketing messages within 10 business days. We continue to send transactional emails that you cannot opt out of (account notices, password resets, payment receipts, security alerts) because they are required to operate your account.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share data only with:
- Payment processors (Stripe) to process transactions
- Email delivery providers (Mailgun) to send transactional and marketing messages
- Hosting providers to operate our infrastructure
- Law enforcement when required by applicable law
6. Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures including encrypted connections (TLS/SSL), secure server infrastructure and access controls to protect your data.
7. Data Retention
We retain your account information for as long as your subscription is active and for a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping purposes. License verification logs are retained for up to 12 months. Marketing opt-out records are retained indefinitely so we can honor your preference.
8. Cookies
Our website uses essential cookies for site functionality and analytics cookies to improve our services. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.
9. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Opt out of marketing communications at any time, using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email or by emailing us
- Cancel your subscription at any time
To exercise these rights, contact us at support@handycafe.com.
10. Children's Privacy
Our services are intended for business use by internet cafe operators. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
