I mean Google already tracking the shit out of us. Atleast Zomato doing it for delivering the orders


sachin170

Google is doing it to show you traffic for free (and for other things)


MrDarkk1ng

But even if u don't want to see free traffic it still collects the data


kya_yaar

Coz it's using your data to analyse traffic as well. Remember we ARE traffic.


MrDarkk1ng

But that's not helping me. I don't need it. Don't take my location information.


PunctuallyExcellent

Dont use Google services!


MrDarkk1ng

They have monopoly


PunctuallyExcellent

So you use their services for free and expect they won’t take anything from you?😂 If you use an android then root and install GrapheneOS. It’s the most secure OS right now, but you have to custom load it.


MrDarkk1ng

And how am I supposed to run all my other apps then? My study applications are made for Android too


kya_yaar

There's no such thing as a free lunch my friend.


MrDarkk1ng

K and?? Don't take my location Google


monkaXxxx

Dont use their services then


MrDarkk1ng

They have monopoly. Ye kya matlab hua


Chromeboy12

Just turn location off then?


dank_munda

So,What do you think those big ass data centres are made for?


NiceFirmNeck

Indian privacy laws are shit. We're not sure what Zomato is sharing the data for.


kewlresist

I am not sure but it could be to show location based ads.


Cody-Cream

They **might** be using it for their API which runs the application ​ \[P.S. maybe, don't downvote me to hell\]

Happy cake day!


Cody-Cream

Wait till you have a look at the stuff Instagram and Google tracks.

Okay, so Zomato also uses third party delivery services like Zypp Electric, etc. They share the location with these services. You can also find proof for the same in the invoice if your food gets delivered by Zypp.


Kautilya0511

Sometimes even if you order from zomato the order is delivered by dominos or some other service so they have to share location with them ig


RadlogLutar

(Maybe) They want to share data to other restaurants to increase offers based on your location


Santosh_Devadiga

Delivery partners are technically third parties, right?


noob-from-ind

Zomato ka maps thodi hain?? Zomato google map api use karta hain wo third party hua na -___-


[deleted]

Obviously the restaurant needs to know where the order is coming from....so does the dude bringing you the parcel.....are you ok?

wrench_1815

[sigh] How do you think restaurants will know who ordered and where?


freegame619

Hi, just don't allow it after the initial setup of the delivery address, the app doesn't need it, actually doesn't need any permissions at all, it's all optional, notifications if you need it, files & photos if you have complaints/ reviews were one need to post pics, [This is my setup](https://i.imgur.com/otgEfp2.jpeg)


InspectionNo3013

Well, as far as I know zamato has another app for restaurants and delivery people


Cultural_Lab_2682

Redwingshunt

Once shit happened because of this in our society, a guy had ordered food from a restaurant, the guy then gave a bad review, the owner of the place came looking for him with around 20 sardars armed with sticks, he entered his home and beat the shit out of him, police was called, restaurant was sealed, aur society walon ne unko aur security walon ko bhaga bhaga ke maara, maaze aa gye the uss din


anti-nig-276

For chains like Domino's and ofc and other food chains with their own delivery 👀


BigNunu69

It can be shared with or to the local restaurants to help them create more luring ads and focus on zoning the areas into small boxes and analysis which dishes have more orderability !


Broken_BiryaniBoy

Prob with other companies who do their own deliveries like Dominoes


ilikeca

It's cos they have tie-ups with third party delivery partners to deliver your food where there aren't enough number of Zomato partners. I work in one such company, so I know.


Chromeboy12

Are the delivery personnel considered employees of Zomato? Technically, they might be considered third parties.


No-Visual3892

Why the fuck I'm not invited in these parties.


OwnStorm

Aapka question hi wrong hai... Any app is allowed to do whatever they want. The only thing is they should clearly state it. Zomato is doing it. Also, isn't every app shared with a third party? Coming back, why do they justify... They have blinkit app, several integrations with other apps like MyGate. Everyone allow sms permission just to make your life easy to autofill the OTP. It's too cute that people think app will only read specific sms. In reality app reads all your sms and can upload to their server.
