Privacy Policy & SMS Terms

Effective October 20, 2026

This policy explains how The Octopus Bar handles information provided through this website, reservation and event inquiry forms, and our customer-care text messaging program. It also covers inquiries about food from The Salty Shack made through these channels.

Information you provide

When you contact us, we collect the details you submit, such as your name, email address, phone number, requested date and time, party size, booking preferences, and message. If you choose text messaging, we also keep your consent choice and related communications.

How we use information

We use this information to respond to questions, plan and manage reservations or events, provide customer service, and communicate about your request. If you opt in to texts, messages may include inquiry follow-ups, email follow-up notices, reservation confirmations, updates, and reminders. Reservation texting consent does not enroll you in promotional text campaigns.

Service providers and sharing

We use service providers to operate our website, process form submissions, manage email, and deliver text messages, including Alive5 for SMS. These providers process information as needed to provide those services. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect legal rights and safety.

We do not sell or share mobile phone numbers with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging opt-in data and consent are not shared with third parties for their own use. Limited processing by providers that deliver our messaging service is permitted only to operate that service.

Your choices and privacy questions

You may submit a reservation or event inquiry without agreeing to receive texts. You can contact info@theoctopusbar.com to ask about your information, request a correction or deletion, or change how we contact you. We may need to retain records for active bookings, business recordkeeping, legal obligations, or to honor an opt-out request.

Website technology and outside services

Our website and its providers may process technical information such as IP address, browser information, and usage data to operate, secure, and understand use of the site. You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Links to ordering, gift cards, merchandise, ticketing, and social media services take you to other websites; their privacy policies govern information you provide directly to them.

SMS terms: The Octopus Bar customer care

By checking the optional text-message consent box on our form, you agree to receive SMS messages from The Octopus Bar about your inquiry or reservation. Message frequency varies based on your request. Message and data rates may apply. Consent is not a condition of purchase or making a reservation.

Reply STOP to unsubscribe from texts. Reply HELP for assistance, or email info@theoctopusbar.com. After opting out, you may receive a final confirmation of your request. Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Provide only a number you own or are authorized to use, and let us know if it changes.
