Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

UseUp (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or join our waitlist. Please read this policy carefully. If you disagree with its terms, please discontinue use of the Service.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only the information necessary to operate the Service:

• Email address — when you join our waitlist. This is the only personal information we currently collect.
• Usage data — standard server logs including IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps, collected automatically when you visit the site.
• Cookies — small data files placed on your device for analytics and session management (see Section 7).

We do not collect payment information, government IDs, or sensitive personal data during the pre-launch phase.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Send you waitlist confirmation and position updates.
• Notify you when UseUp launches or when early access becomes available.
• Send occasional product updates, feature announcements, and relevant news about UseUp.
• Analyze site traffic and usage patterns to improve the Service.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms & Conditions.

We will never sell your email address or personal information to third parties.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate the Service:

• Resend — for transactional and marketing email delivery. Your email address is transmitted to Resend to send waitlist and launch communications. Resend's privacy policy is available at resend.com/legal/privacy-policy.
• Vercel — for website hosting and infrastructure. Usage data and server logs may be processed by Vercel.

5. Data Retention

We retain your email address on our waitlist until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Usage logs are retained for up to 90 days. Once the app launches, any data collected through the app will be subject to an updated privacy policy that we will share before you create an account.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Deletion — request that we delete your personal data. You can unsubscribe from our waitlist at any time via the link in any email, which will remove your address from our list.
• Correction — request correction of inaccurate data.
• Opt-out — opt out of marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link included in every email.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@useupnow.com.

7. Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to analyze traffic and improve your experience. These include:

• Essential cookies — required for the website to function correctly.
• Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors interact with the site (e.g., pages visited, time on site).

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Disabling cookies may affect some functionality of the site.

8. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us immediately and we will promptly delete it.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, by sending an email to the address on our waitlist. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
