How We Protect Your Information

We adopt appropriate data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information, username, password, transaction information and data stored on our Site.

Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its users happens over a SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures. We also protect your account information through the use of a password. To protect the confidentiality of your information, you MUST keep your password confidential and not disclose it to any other person. However, keep in mind that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable.

Sharing Your Personal Information

We may share generic aggregated demographic information not linked to any personal identification information regarding visitors and users with our Merchants, Agents, trusted affiliates, sponsors and advertisers for the purposes outlined above.

Except as provided below, we do not share or sell information that identifies our users personally or makes it possible for other parties to contact them directly. We share your personal information as follows:

1. Merchants. We provide location information to our advertising Merchant customers (“Merchants”) without identifying you specifically for the purpose of enabling map functionality. Additionally, we may partner with Merchants to provide promotions. If you choose to participate in any such promotion, the information you provide may be shared as necessary to enable your participation and to allow the promotion Merchant sponsor to contact you.
2. Third Party Service Providers. From time to time, we employ other companies and individuals to perform specialized functions on our behalf, such as secure credit card processing and email service providers. They may have access to personal information needed to perform these functions but will be prohibited from using it for other purposes.
3. Protection of Us and Others. We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to: (i) comply with the law or comply with legal process served on Uncle Paul’s Cabin LLC; or (ii) protect and defend our rights or property, our services, users or the public.
4. Business Transfers. In the unlikely event that we sell a portion of or all of our business or in the event that we reorganize, user records would likely be transferred to the acquiring company or new entity; however, any personal information in those records will remain subject to the promises made in the pre-existing privacy policy.

We do not control the content or links that appear on these sites and are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our Site. In addition, these sites or services, including their content and links, may be constantly changing. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies. Browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link to our Site, is subject to that website's own terms and policies. Merchants may also have their own privacy statements. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the privacy policies provided by these other parties prior to providing them with information or taking advantage of a sponsored offer or promotion.

Websites that link to or from our services may collect personal information about you, including any social networking sites to which you choose to link your account with us. This Privacy Policy does not apply to, and cannot control the activities of, those social networking and other sites.

Third Party Websites

Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our Site from those we actually know are under 13 years of age, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13 years of age.

Social Community Areas

The Site may be accessible through or contain connections to areas where you may be able to publicly post information, communicate with others such as discussion boards or blogs, review products and Merchants, and submit media content. Prior to posting in these areas, please read our Terms of Use carefully. All the information you post may be accessible to anyone with Internet access, and any personal information you include in your posting may be read, collected, and used by others. We recommend that you do not post any personal information in the social community areas.

Social Networks

You may log in to the Site using certain social network credentials. To manage the sharing of certain personal information with us when you connect with us through social networking platforms or applications refer to the privacy policy and settings of the social networking website or application.

You also have the option to link social networks, such as Facebook, to your UPC-US account. Once you register with UPC-US and connect with the social network, you will be able to automatically post recent UPC-US activity back to your social network. You can enable and disable social network connections from the “Connections” tab in your UPC-US account.

By proceeding through any of the above steps, you grant UPC-US permission to access all of the elements of your social network profile information that you have made available to be shared and to use it in accordance with the social network’s terms of use and this Privacy Policy.

Notice to Residents of Countries Outside the United States of America

By using the Site or providing us with your personal information, you are directly transferring your personal information and non-identifiable information to us in the United States. The United States may not have the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction. However, you agree and consent to our collection, transfer, and processing of your personal information and non-identifiable information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You are solely responsible for compliance with any data protection or privacy obligations in your jurisdiction when you use the Site or provide us with personal information. Regardless of where we transfer your information, we still protect your information in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.

Accessing and Correcting Personal Information

You can access, update and delete your personal information, and the other information you provided to us by managing this information through your online account or sending us an email at corp@upc-us.com.

If you want to deactivate your UPC-US account or have other questions or requests, please contact us. While we are ready to assist you in managing your subscriptions, deactivating your account, and removing your active profile, we cannot always delete records of past interactions and transactions. For example, we are required to retain records relating to previous purchases on the Site for financial reporting and compliance reasons.

We will retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services and to maintain a record of your transactions for financial reporting purposes.
