Reviews
If you sign in and review a brand, your review (the rating, the title and the text you write) is public on that brand's page together with your first name and the date. Your email address and surname are never shown. We keep the IP address you wrote it from, visible only to our moderators, to deal with abuse.
The brand's verified owner can see your review, your first name and the rating, and can answer it in public. If a review is reported, a moderator may read it and hide or delete it. You can edit or delete your own review at any time on the brand page; deleting it removes the text from our database. Reviews are written by visitors and are not checked by HelloDeals.
Brand owners
A company that asks to manage a brand gives us the email address of its account, the website domain it claims, and its acceptance of the Business terms. We store the verification record we asked it to publish, the decisions we make on the request, and the offers, logo and replies it publishes. We email the person about the outcome of the request and about new reviews of their brand.
At launch
A full privacy policy, covering accounts, email and analytics, will be published before real data is collected.
