Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us!!

Last updated: September 21, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Yuups (“Yuups,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our website (the “Site”) to purchase Yuup collectables, and to the extent applicable, how we handle location (GPS) data for the figurines.

By using our Site or purchasing a Yuup figurine, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or purchase our products.

Title

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

2.1. Information You Provide Directly
When you place an order for a Yuup figurine, we collect:

Your name
Contact information (e.g. email address, phone number, shipping address)
Billing information, to the extent necessary for order processing
Payment information (e.g. credit card details) — Note: We do not process or store payment information ourselves; payments are handled by Stripe (or other third-party payment processor). See Section 3.

2.2. Device, Usage & Log Data
We may collect information about your device and how you interact with our Site, such as:

IP address
Browser type and operating system
Pages you view, time spent, clickstreams
Referral or exit pages
Usage metrics and analytics data

This helps us monitor and improve the Site, detect fraud, and optimize user experience.

2.3. GPS / Location Data from the Figurine
Yuup figurines include a GPS feature that allows tracking via Apple’s Find My (or compatible) integration. When you activate that feature, we may process or transmit location data associated with the figurine.

Because the GPS integration is built atop Apple’s Find My / Location Services platform, the collection, use, and sharing of location data are subject to Apple’s policies and practices (such as described in Apple’s Location Services and Find My privacy statements).

Key points regarding Apple’s location / Find My network:

The Find My network is designed with strong privacy protections; precise location data from accessories is encrypted end-to-end in many cases, so Apple cannot view or deduce the location data in plaintext.

Users retain control over their device’s Location Services settings and which apps or accessories can access location data.

Apple’s Location Services architecture aims to do as much processing on-device as possible, and minimize the transmission of location data externally.

When a user enables the Yuup figurine’s tracking capability, they may be asked to grant relevant location permissions via iOS / device prompts.

Because the figurine’s GPS is tied to Apple’s Find My network, we do not have direct, unrestricted access to Apple’s location infrastructure; access is mediated by the Apple platform architecture and existing privacy mechanisms.

Title

3. Payment Processing / Third-Party Services

We rely on third-party payment processors (Stripe) to handle your payment card transactions. We do not collect or store full payment card numbers, CVV codes, or other sensitive payment data. All payment processing is done securely via Stripe (or whichever processor you select), according to their privacy and security policies.

We may share with the payment processor only the data necessary to complete the transaction (e.g. order amount, billing name, billing address).

We may also use third-party services (e.g. analytics, email, marketing) that collect or process data on our behalf. These service providers are contractually restricted to use the data only for the purposes we specify, and not for unrelated uses.

Title

4. Use of Information

We process your personal information for the following purposes:

To fulfill orders, shipments, and handle returns or refunds
To communicate with you (e.g. order confirmations, support, notifications)
To detect, prevent, and respond to fraud or abuse
To improve, maintain, and optimize our Site (analytics, performance)
To enforce our Terms of Service, comply with legal obligations, or respond to lawful requests
To operate the GPS tracking feature (when enabled) — e.g. to transmit location as needed to link with Find My

We will not use your personal data for advertising or marketing unless you consent (where required by law).

Title

5. Sharing & Disclosure

We may share your information in the following circumstances:

With third-party service providers (e.g. payment processor, shipping providers, email service) to the extent necessary to perform their services
With Apple / the Find My infrastructure as needed to route or coordinate location data for the figurine (subject to Apple’s protocols)
With law enforcement, regulators, or third parties when required by law, or to respond to legal requests (e.g. subpoenas, court orders)
In connection with mergers, acquisitions, or other business transactions (with appropriate safeguards)
With your consent or direction

We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Title

6. Data Retention & Deletion

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. After that, we will either delete or anonymize your data.

You may request deletion of your account information (excluding data we must retain for legal reasons). Once deleted, you cannot access prior transaction history.

For location data from figurines, we may retain historical location data (anonymized or aggregated) for diagnostics or analytics, unless you request deletion and it does not conflict with other obligations.

Title

7. Data Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Title

8. Children’s Privacy

Yuup is designed for general audiences but is not intended for unsupervised use by children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. Parents or guardians should supervise device setup and usage.

Title

9. International Users

If you are accessing Yuup from outside the United States, please note that your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from your jurisdiction.

Title

10. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

Access and obtain a copy of your personal data;
Request correction or deletion;
Object to or restrict certain processing;
Withdraw consent (where applicable).

To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@yuups.world.

Title

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The “Effective Date” at the top will indicate the latest version. Continued use of Yuup after changes means you accept the revised policy.
