Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. It is Yuup's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect from you across our website, yuup.co, and other sites we own and operate. Any terms with capital letters that are used as defined terms but are not defined here are used as definitions in either the Customer Terms or the Host Terms.

1. Information we collect

Log data

When you visit our website, our servers may automatically log the standard data provided by your web browser. It may include your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, your browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on each page, and other details.

Personal information

We may ask for personal information, such as your:

  • Name
  • Email
  • Date of birth
  • Phone/mobile number
  • Work address
  • Payment information

2. Legal bases for processing

We will process your personal information lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner. We collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so.

These legal bases depend on the services you use and how you use them, meaning we collect and use your information only where:

  • it’s necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract (for example, when we provide a service you request from us);
  • it satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote our services, and to protect our legal rights and interests;
  • you give us consent to do so for a specific purpose (for example, you might consent to us sending you our newsletter); or
  • we need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

Where you consent to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time (but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place).

We don’t keep personal information for longer than is necessary. While we retain this information, we will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorised access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. That said, we advise that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and cannot guarantee absolute data security. If necessary, we may retain your personal information for our compliance with a legal obligation or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person.

3. Collection and use of information

We may collect, hold, use and disclose information for the following purposes and personal information will not be further processed in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes:

  • to provide you with the services (together with any goods or digital content) that you have requested, for example, to enable you to book or schedule an Experience, or to offer an Experience via our website;
  • to enable you to customise or personalise your experience of our website;
  • to enable you to access and use our website, associated applications and associated social media platforms;
  • for internal record keeping and administrative purposes;
  • for analytics, market research and business development, including to operate and improve our website, associated applications and associated social media platforms;
  • for advertising and marketing, including to send you promotional information about our products and services and information about third parties that we consider may be of interest to you; and
  • to comply with our legal obligations and resolve any disputes that we may have.

4. Disclosure of personal information to third parties 

We may disclose personal information to:

  • third party service providers for the purpose of enabling them to provide their services, including (without limitation) IT service providers, data storage, hosting and server providers, ad networks, analytics, error loggers, debt collectors, maintenance or problem-solving providers, marketing or advertising providers, professional advisors and payment systems operators;
  • our employees, contractors and/or related entities;
  • and courts, tribunals, regulatory authorities and law enforcement officers, as required by law, in connection with any actual or prospective legal proceedings, or in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.

If you are a website user seeking to book an Experience with a Host, we will provide your name, contact details and details of the Experience you would like to book to the relevant Host in order for them to deal with your booking request and to provide you (and/or any Participant) with the Experience. These Hosts will process your personal data as independent controllers and so they are responsible for ensuring that they use your personal data in accordance with data protection laws. For further information about how a host may use your personal data, please read their privacy policy/notice. Yuup is not responsible for the privacy practices of these hosts.

5. International transfers of personal information

The personal information we collect is stored and processed in United Kingdom and Ireland. Your personal information may also be processed by our partners, affiliates and third-party providers where they maintain facilities, which might be outside of the United Kingdom (UK) or European Economic Area (EEA).

We will ensure that any transfer of personal information from countries in the EEA/UK to countries outside the EEA/UK will be protected by appropriate safeguards, for example:

  • the transfer is to a country which is the subject of an adequacy-decision by the European Commission;
  • by using standard data protection clauses approved by the European Commission;
  • the use of binding corporate rules; or
  • other legally accepted means, such as a derogation or exemption applies.

Where we transfer personal information from an EEA/UK country to a non-EEA/UK country, you acknowledge that third parties in other jurisdictions may not be subject to similar data protection laws to the ones in our jurisdiction. There are risks if any such third party engages in any act or practice that would contravene the data privacy laws in our jurisdiction and this might mean that you will not be able to seek redress under our jurisdiction’s privacy laws.

For further information (including how to obtain a copy of any safeguards used) please contact us using the details provided below.

6. Your rights and controlling your personal information
