Privacy Policy for Uppit
This Privacy Policy describes how Emberex, Inc. (“Emberex,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses and protects your personal information. When you submit personal information to Emberex through Uppit or any related web pages, products or services (collectively, "Products") by email, by phone, by mail, or when you use or access our Products, you are consenting to the collection, use, transfer and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you have questions about this policy, please contact Emberex using the contact information located at the end of this Privacy Policy.
1. Information Emberex Collects
When you submit information to Emberex via our Products, or otherwise correspond with Emberex, Emberex receives and stores that information. Personal information includes any information you provide Emberex that could reasonably be used to personally identify you. It does not include any content that you post through our Products or provide to Emberex for posting to the same, even if such content contains personally identifiable information.
Our Products include an interactive mobile application that allows users to view and share photos and locations. When you post a photo, it will be shared with other users of the application, so it is important to remember to only post photos that you want to be shared.
Our application is intended for a general audience and Emberex does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have collected such children’s personal information without parental consent, we will delete such information from our system. If you learn that your child has provided us with information, please let us know.
When you visit or use our Products, our web server automatically receives and records certain information that your device provides, including a universally unique identifier (UUID), precise location permission (non-continuous), camera permission, geographic position, and camera data.
Any use of Cookies – or of other tracking tools – by this Application or by the owners of third-party services used by this Application serves the purpose of providing the service required by the User, in addition to any other purposes described in the present document and in the Cookie Policy, if available.
Users are responsible for any third-party Personal Data obtained, published or shared through this Application and confirm that they have the third party's consent to provide the Data to the Owner.
This application does not support “Do Not Track” requests. To determine whether any of the third-party services it uses honor the “Do Not Track” requests, please read their privacy policies.
2. How Emberex Uses Your Personal Information
The information Emberex collects is used to provide its services, as well as for the following:
Device permissions may be requested by the user’s device, in order to allow the device to access the user’s device data. Camera permission allows access to the camera. Precise location permission (non-continuous) allows access to the user’s precise device location in a manner that isn’t continuous. This means that it is impossible for the application to derive the exact position of the user on a continuous basis. Device permissions may be required in order for the application to function properly, and they may be revoked by the user at any time. If the user grants any of the permissions requested by the application, the respective Personal Data may be collected and processed by this application.
When requested by the user, photos may be uploaded to a web server and shared with other users of the application, along with the user’s geographic location at the time the photo was uploaded.
Emberex may also disclose personal information to third parties with your consent or under the following circumstances:
Emberex may disclose your personal information to service providers and consultants who are under contract with Emberex in order to assist with Emberex business operations, such as mail delivery, technical support, and operating or improving our Products.
From time to time Emberex may be involved in some form of business transfer, whether it is a merger, acquisition or some form of asset sale or a sale of its Products. In connection with such activity, user information, including your personal information, may be provided to entities and advisors involved in the business transfer, subject to an obligation to keep your personal information confidential.
Emberex may disclose your personal information when Emberex believes in good faith that such disclosures: (a) are required by law, including, for example, to comply with a court order or subpoena; (b) will help enforce Emberex’s Terms of Use; or (c) are necessary to protect your safety or security and/or protect the safety and security of Emberex, its Products, the property or employees of Emberex, or third parties.
Emberex does not sell or provide your personal information to third party advertisers.
