Privacy Policy Statement

USI Technologies, INC. (“Upsellit”) is a marketing technology and automation platform and service. We help online retailers (“Clients”, “Partners”, “Merchants”) increase engagement and online sales from their website visitors (“Users”) via a suite of conversion optimization technologies (“Technology”).

Upsellit is a third-party data processor that collects, stores, and uses data as determined by its Partners (“Data Controllers”). The legal basis for processing such data and the retention period is determined by our Clients and legal frameworks within respective regions (CCPA, GDPR, CAN-SPAM, CASL, ET. AL).

This Privacy Policy describes the information that we collect through our Technology and services (“Services”), including the dashboard for our Clients to utilize or manage their campaigns and our Services (“Dashboard”), and how we use that information. If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy, please contact us at hello@upsellit.com.

Where Upsellit is a data controller (e.g. web form submissions on upsellit.com domain properties) the legal basis will be both legitimate interest (e.g., where we have evaluated that our interests are not overridden by Users’ fundamental rights) and consent depending on the type of information subject to processing and the information we receive.

This privacy policy is available for review at the moment of data collection for users' consideration. If you do not agree with our privacy policy, do not use the marketing engagement. By submitting any personal information to the marketing engagement, you agree to be bound by the terms of this privacy policy statement.

NOTICE OF FINANCIAL INCENTIVE

This Notice of Financial Incentive ("Notice") is to provide you with information regarding any financial incentive or “price or service difference” that we may provide in exchange for your personal information. All terms are used in this Notice as defined in the CCPA and similar regulations.

In order to receive financial incentives, or price or service differences from our Merchants, you may provide personal information from time to time. You can opt-in to the financial incentive, or price or service difference, by submitting the personal information requested at the point of collection. Personal information includes, but is not limited to, email address, phone number, IP address, device type, active browser, among other Personally Identifiable Information (PII) we collect on behalf of Merchants for marketing purposes. The amount or nature of the financial incentive, or price or service difference, will be specified at the point of collection that presents the opportunity to redeem financial incentive in exchange for your personal information. 

You have a right to opt-out of financial incentives at any time. To exercise your right, please review our Privacy Policy and use the contact information found in the Policy to submit a request. The level of service and experience you receive lies with Merchants and we assume no responsibility for services, or lack thereof, you experience with Merchants beyond the extent permitted by our Privacy Policy, business relationship with Merchant, and initial financial incentive offer. 

Each financial incentive, or price or service difference, related to submission and PII is based upon each Merchant’s reasonable but sole determination of the estimated value of such information. We do not assign a monetary value to the data that we collect and strive to only use that information to further our business in accordance with our Privacy Policy; to the extent that we are required to assign a monetary value to your personal information it is equal to the value of the discount or financial incentive that is provided to you by Merchants at the point of collection.

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Upsellit collects and uses both Personally Identifiable Information ("PII") and Personal Data to provide certain services and quality measures that enhance the shopping experience for Users on Merchant websites.

PII is information that may be used to identify an individual. For example, Upsellit may collect Users’ contact information such as their name, email address, and phone number from Merchants that collect it via online forms. Upsellit generally does not collect PII unless it is provided to us. Upsellit uses this data as directed by Merchants. Upsellit’s Technology may access this data automatically as each data point is entered by Users into a particular web form in accordance with applicable law.

Upsellit also collects Personal Data such as a User’s IP address, cookies, and type of browser and operating system. Upsellit generally only uses this information for troubleshooting technical issues. In addition, Upsellit regularly deletes old Personal Data including PII. Upsellit can also convert PII to Pseudonymous Data at a Merchant's request.

The information we collect is specified by Merchants we contract with. We are the third-party processors ("Data Processor") and as the Data Processor we are authorized to collect on behalf of Data Controllers. You can request more information on the information being collected, how it is used, where it is stored, and to have it deleted at any time by emailing hello@upsellit.com. 


 

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Upsellit does not disclose, store, or share end user PII or Pseudonymous information with sites or apps other than the Data Controller requesting data collection and processing for their specific marketing purposes. 

Upsellit uses information it collects to provide marketing services and engagements on behalf of Merchants, to better understand users on behalf of Merchants, to provide better product recommendations, services, and experiences on behalf of Merchants, and other purposes deemed necessary or required by Merchants to enforce the Terms of Use and other terms or conditions applicable to any portion of the site.

COOKIES AND IP ADDRESSES

We also collect pseudonymous information via the Merchant’s website to help us administer the marketing engagements and to compile statistics such as the number of visitors. The information collected includes, but is not limited to, the name of your internet service provider, the IP address of the computer or device you are using, the type of browser and operating system that you use, the date and time you access the Merchant’s websites, the website referrer address and other log file information.

Our marketing engagements use cookies to identify you over multiple visits to the site, for example to remember your country and provide country-specific content. Upsellit does not use third-party cookies. Rather than third-party cookies, Upsellit uses first-party javascript cookies that live and stay on Merchants' domain properties. Cookies are optional, and you can block or delete them at any time. However, some parts of our marketing engagements will not work without cookies. Cookies may also be used to track visitor behavior on the website, which allows visitors to receive personalized marketing engagements that reflect their past behavior on Merchant sites.

TEXT MESSAGE (“SMS”) MARKETING

By providing your contact information you provide clear, expressed consent to receiving information on products, sales, and promotions regarding our Merchant’s product or services via SMS . Consent is not a requirement to the purchase of goods or services. You may opt-out at any time by replying "STOP" to any message that you receive and you may request additional assistance by replying "HELP". After opting out, you may again opt-in to receiving communications by replying START. You may receive 5 messages per month, however the exact amount will be determined by the Merchant.

Note to T-Mobile customers: T-Mobile is not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message and Data Rates May Apply.

AGGREGATION AND USE OF ANONYMOUS DATA

We reserve the right to aggregate information collected from visitors to our Client’s websites to create anonymous statistical and demographic data. The anonymous data is collected and reviewed to help Upsellit and its Clients better understand Users. The anonymous data may be published and shared through reports, case studies, and similar mediums, but never in such a fashion as to reveal PII or other highly personal or confidential information.

Upsellit’s domain properties collect pseudonymous information with use of Google Analytics platforms. For more information about how Google Analytics processes your data please visit Google's Privacy & Terms.

DATA SHARING

Upsellit does not disclose, share, or sell personal information it collects through Users’ use of Merchants’ websites with unaffiliated third parties.

On occasion, Upsellit may offer in conjunction with Affiliate Networks, Affiliate Agencies, or other third parties certain services that may require you to share your personal information with that third party as a condition for receiving that service. While Upsellit will treat any information it receives in accordance with this Privacy Policy Statement, Upsellit will not be responsible for the information submitted by you to that third party, and we remind you to review the applicable rules and any third party applicable Privacy Policies separately before participating in such services. Third party vendors may also use cookies to serve digital ads based on a person’s past visits to the Upsellit site.
