Khana365 · Effective date: 13 September 2026 · Last updated: 13 September 2026

Khana365 ("Khana365", "we", "us" or "our") operates the Khana365 mobile application for Android and iOS and the website khana365.com (together, the "Service"). The Service lets you discover nearby restaurants, place food orders, and have them delivered to you.

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use and share it, how long we keep it, and the choices and rights you have. It applies to everyone who uses the Service. By creating an account or using the Service you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

Card details never touch our servers.
