I wont take privacy laws seriously as long as my pizza delivery service needs a fucken phone number as mandatory field.

Well, It does seem more than relevant to me that a service that is supposed to deliver something to you need a contact information such as a phone number.

@Jilano i forgot to mention, they need my email, too.
And i get updates about my delivery via email.

@CoffeeNcode ah damn, i can see that.😅

@CoffeeNcode I feel you. For a while for whatever reasons, my official address was "24-26 route de Lyon...".

Full disclosure, i see reasons to have me give them my number. For me, it's just funny how a logged ip seems to trigger people more than a mandatory phone number. Where the latter is a way more personal detail.

+1 (xxx) 555-1212

the super boring reason is: so they can call you in case you are a new client (to verify that you are an actual person) there are a lot of joksters ordering pizza to (a) bogus places (b) other people.

second boring reason: so they can call you in case of missfunctioning bell, unclear position of door or just confusing layout of the residence (think 3 backyards in a row)

@BurnoutDV or to tell you that they don't deluliver to your city after half an hour :(
