Privacy Policy


Thanks for taking the time to review this rather tedious yet essential information!

Upkeepist is dedicated to protecting user privacy. This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how I collect, use, and safeguard the information you provide. It will also help you in making informed decisions when using this site.

This Policy applies to your use of www.upkeepist.com (the “Site”) and any other related web pages, services, applications, or functionalities. By visiting, uploading, or otherwise interacting with the Site, you are subject to this Policy. Any material changes made to this Privacy Policy will be updated on this page.

ANY ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE WEBSITE BY YOU AFTER THE CHANGES GO INTO EFFECT SHALL CONSTITUTE AND BE DEEMED YOUR AGREEMENT TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy and the Site to stay updated on current privacy practices. If you don’t agree to the privacy practices explained here, please do not use Upkeepist.

Please be sure to also review the Terms and Conditions to fully understand the details of how this site works.

INFORMATION COLLECTED

Personally identifiable information.

Personally identifiable information (“PII”) is any information that can be used to identify you, such as your first and last name, email address, physical address, phone number, etc.

I only collect personal data about you that you choose to provide, such as email addresses and profile information. If you provide me with an email address, I may send you promotional messages. You can always stop these messages by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any email.

Aggregate information (non-personally identifiable information).

The Site may, from time to time, automatically collect aggregate information about visitors. This aggregate information includes, but is not limited to, IP addresses connecting to the Site, how many persons visited a particular page or activity, dates and times of image uploads, device characteristics, operating system, browser type, type of connection, page and image viewing statistics, and incoming and outgoing links.  

Like most websites, Upkeepist uses log files to store this information. None of this automatically collected technical information is associated with any identified person at the time it is collected, but it could be associated with you under two circumstances:

  1. if you choose to provide personal data about yourself as described above; the technical information collected that would otherwise be anonymous could instead be logged as coming from you, or
  2. if I am required to disclose server logs as a result of a subpoena or other legal process, some third party such as your internet provider could match the anonymous technical information with you, using information beyond what is found on the servers.

Cookies. (Sorry, not those kinds of cookies.)

The Site may use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, or other anonymous tracking information to improve the server’s interaction with your computer. No personally identifiable information is on or is connected to, these cookies. Although the servers currently don’t respond to “do-not-track” requests (see below), you can block these cookies in other ways, for example by searching for “disable cookies” in your browser.

INFORMATION USE & DISCLOSURE

The Site will never share, sell, lease, or rent PII to unaffiliated third parties, except in the following circumstances:

  1. if I have to disclose such information for legal reasons, such as to enforce Terms, protect or assert the rights, property interests, or personal safety of the Site (including its employees, directors, suppliers, distributors, service providers, users of the Website or others), or
  2. if I am otherwise required to disclose such information by law. I will disclose information only to the extent necessary to comply with the purpose of the request.

PROTECTING YOUR INFORMATION

The Site has implemented certain physical, administrative, and technical security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, or alteration of the information you provide. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. So, I can’t warrant that your information will be absolutely secure when it’s in transit. Any transmission of data is at your own risk. It helps if you take safety precautions to prevent unauthorized access to your information, like limiting access to your computer or mobile device.

DO NOT TRACK

Do Not Track (DNT) is a preference you can adjust in your browser to let websites you visit know that you do not want them collecting certain information about you. The Site does not currently respond to DNT signals or requests from your browser.

YOUR RIGHTS REGARDING USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have the right at any time to prevent Upkeepist from contacting you for marketing purposes.  If and when you receive a promotional communication that you do not want, you can choose to unsubscribe with the link provided in the email. 

CALIFORNIA ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (CALOPPA)

CalOPPA requires all commercial websites and online services accessible by California residents to conspicuously post a privacy policy. Per CalOPPA, I agree that:

  • Users can visit this site anonymously.
  • Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes on this Privacy Policy Page.
  • Users can change their personal information by sending an email to hello@upkeepist.com.

CHILDREN’S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (COPPA)

The Site does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen (13). If you are under the age of thirteen (13), you should not provide any personally identifiable information. If I learn that I have collected any information or content from anyone under the age of 13, I will delete that information immediately.

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES

The Site may contain links to other sites. However, I am not responsible for the privacy practices employed by those sites or the information or content they contain. Users should be aware of this and read the privacy statements of other websites they navigate to through internal links. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through Upkeepist and does not apply to any third-party websites linked.

ANTI-SPAM POLICY

I don’t enjoy spam either. I will never send unsolicited emails without permission, and I will never sell or provide user email addresses to any unauthorized third party in violation of this Policy. All of the newsletters and other general email marketing communications also include an unsubscribe link, so that you can stop marketing emails.

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

I may periodically modify, alter, or update this Privacy Policy. I will alert users to any material changes to this policy by posting the revised information here. I encourage you to regularly review this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of Upkeepist constitutes your agreement to this Privacy Policy and any future updates.
