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.
