4. Reservation Policy
Ember Grill Society provides online pathways for guests to request reservations and event enquiries via embergrillsociety.com, including standard dining bookings, Social Banquets, and experiences in The Hearth Card Lounge. All reservation and event arrangements are subject to availability, confirmation by our team, and any venue-specific conditions communicated at the time of booking.
Submission of a reservation or event enquiry form via the website, including through Reservations or Contact Us, does not in itself constitute a confirmed booking. A booking is only considered confirmed once you receive explicit confirmation from Ember Grill Society by email, phone, or other agreed means.
By submitting a reservation request, you agree that:
- All information supplied is accurate, complete, and up to date
- You will notify us promptly of any changes to your party size, timing, or special requirements
- You will comply with any arrival times, dress guidelines, and house rules advised by our team
Cancellation and modification terms may vary for standard reservations, private Social Banquets, and gatherings in The Hearth Card Lounge. Specific conditions, including any deposit requirements, minimum spend, or notice periods, will be communicated at or before the time of booking. Failure to adhere to these conditions may result in forfeiture of deposits or other reasonable charges as advised.
We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or amend reservations at our discretion, including in circumstances such as venue capacity constraints, safety considerations, or events beyond our reasonable control. Where reasonable, we will offer alternative times or arrangements.
5. Privacy and Data Protection
Ember Grill Society is committed to handling personal information respectfully and securely, in line with applicable Australian privacy requirements. When you submit a reservation request, join a Social Banquet enquiry, or contact us about The Hearth Card Lounge via embergrillsociety.com, we may collect details such as your name, contact information, booking preferences, and any other information you choose to share.
This information is used primarily to manage reservations, coordinate special requests, respond to enquiries, and enhance your experience at our venue. We may also use aggregated, de-identified information to improve our services, menus, and guest experience across Cuisine, Mixology, and card lounge offerings.
We employ reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, or disclosure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is fully secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted via the internet.
Further details about the types of information we collect, how long we retain it, how you can request access or correction, and how cookies are used on embergrillsociety.com are set out in our dedicated Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
