Privacy Policy
Effective date: 01/01/2026
Sam’s Original, LLC (“Sam’s,” “we,” “us”) operates samsoriginal.com. This page explains what information we collect when you use our website, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this website, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect and How We Use It
We only collect personal information that you choose to give us:
- Contact form. When you send us a message through our contact page, we collect your name, email address, phone number (optional), and the contents of your message. We use this information solely to respond to your question or request.
- Job applications. When you apply for a position through our Join the Team page, we collect the information you provide on the application — such as your name, contact details, age range, education, work availability, and employment history. We use this information only to evaluate your application and contact you about employment. See “Job Applicants” below.
Form submissions are delivered to us by email and stored securely on our website’s server so we don’t lose your message. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to anyone.
We do not process payments or take orders directly on this website. Gift cards are sold in person at the restaurant, and online food orders are placed through DoorDash (see “Third-Party Services” below).
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device that help websites function and understand how they are used. When you first visit our site, a banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies:
- Essential cookies are required for the site to work — including the cookie that remembers your cookie choices (kept for 30 days).
- Statistics and marketing cookies are used only if you accept them, and help us understand how visitors use the site.
You can change your preferences at any time using the Cookie Preferences link, or set your browser to refuse cookies. Declining non-essential cookies will not affect your ability to browse the site.
Third-Party Services
Portions of our website are provided by outside companies, which may collect information under their own privacy policies:
- DoorDash handles our online ordering. When you click “Order Online,” you leave our site and any information you provide is governed by DoorDash’s privacy policy.
- Google provides the daily buffet calendar shown on our homepage and the customer reviews we display, and may set cookies or receive standard technical information (such as your IP address) when those features load.
- Facebook — our site links to our Facebook page; we don’t share any of your information with Facebook.
These companies are not permitted to use information collected through our site for purposes other than providing their service. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.
Job Applicants
Applications submitted through our website are kept confidential and shared only with the people involved in hiring. We keep applications on file for a reasonable period in case a position opens up, after which they are deleted. If you would like your application removed sooner, call us and we will delete it. You may also apply in person at the restaurant if you prefer not to submit information online.
Security
We take reasonable, commercially accepted steps to protect your information, including secure (HTTPS) connections to our website. No method of transmitting or storing data is 100% secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Links to Other Websites
Our site contains links to websites we do not operate. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of other sites, and this policy does not apply to them.
Children’s Privacy
Everybody’s welcome at our tables, but our website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. Our online job application is limited to applicants 16 and older. If you believe a child has submitted personal information through our site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Your Choices and Rights
You can browse our website without providing any personal information. If you would like to know what information we have about you, have it corrected, or have it deleted, contact us using the information below and we will honor your request.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect when they are posted on this page, and the effective date above will be updated. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
