Analytics and attribution

Optional analytics help us understand which public marketing pages and referral sources are useful. Ordering and payment can be used without analytics consent. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, trip details, dietary notes, Stripe IDs, Notion IDs, passwords, or other personal request details to analytics events. If analytics is accepted, limited UTM and referral information may be stored first-party to understand marketing source performance. Customers can change analytics consent later from the Privacy settings control on the website.

Refund / cancellation policy

Because each PDF dining guide is custom research prepared for a specific traveler and trip, cancellations and refunds are available only before research work has started. Once restaurant research, shortlist preparation, or PDF production has begun, payments are generally non-refundable. If Japan Dining Concierge cannot begin the work for operational reasons, the customer will be contacted by email about cancellation or refund options.

Custom PDF dining guide service

Japan Dining Concierge provides custom PDF dining guides and restaurant shortlist recommendations. The service is not a restaurant reservation agency, travel agency, official concierge desk, or restaurant operator.

Restaurant availability disclaimer

Restaurant reservations, restaurant availability, menu availability, dietary accommodation, opening hours, and restaurant access are not guaranteed. Restaurants may change hours, close temporarily, become fully booked, change menus, or refuse service based on their own policies.

Reservation disclaimer

Reservation Support and reservation guidance are optional research support only. We do not guarantee reservation confirmation, do not guarantee restaurant access, and do not promise that a table can be booked.
