Privacy Policy

The Service is a registration list. It collects the information required to assess and prioritise applicants for the allocation of a Plus recording device, and to contact those applicants when a device becomes available in their area. We do not process personal data through the Service for any other purpose.

2.1 Data you provide. Each item below is entered by you during registration. Only the email address is required; every subsequent question may be skipped.

2.2 Data collected automatically.

• Approximate location derived from IP address. Our hosting provider supplies the country and city associated with your connection, which is used to pre-fill the location question. We do not store your IP address, and the derived location is retained only if you confirm it.
• Language preference. Either the language you select or the language requested by your browser, stored with your registration so that correspondence is sent in a language you read.
• Referral data.Your referral code, the code through which you registered if you followed another participant's link, the number of registrations attributable to your link, and the number of times you have shared it. Your code is derived from your email address by a one-way hash and cannot be resolved back to that address.
• Aggregate visit counts. We increment a daily counter and record whether a browser has been seen previously. No identifier is stored alongside these counts and they cannot be associated with any individual or registration.
• Device category. Whether you registered on a phone, tablet or desktop computer, determined from your browser at the point of registration. We store the category only. We do not store the user-agent string from which it is derived, and the category cannot be used to identify a device or a browser.
• Server logs. Our hosting provider retains standard request logs, which include IP addresses, for security and diagnostic purposes.

• Passwords or authentication credentials. The Service has no login.
• Payment details, bank details, or government-issued identifiers.
• Camera, microphone, photo library, contacts, or file access.
• Advertising identifiers. The Service contains no advertising or third-party analytics software development kits.
• Data concerning your activity on other websites or applications.

We do not sell personal data, and we do not disclose personal data for advertising or other cross-context behavioural purposes.

• Administering the waitlist, including determining registration order and priority for device allocation.
• Contacting you regarding your registration and the availability of a device in your area.
• Operating the referral programme and attributing referrals.
• Assessing demand by market in order to determine distribution priority.
• Maintaining the security and integrity of the Service and preventing misuse.

We do not take decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects concerning you by automated means alone.

Where the General Data Protection Regulation, the UK GDPR, or comparable legislation applies, we rely on your consent for the purpose of administering your registration, which you may withdraw at any time in accordance with section 10, and on our legitimate interests in maintaining the security of the Service and preventing its misuse.

The Service sets two cookies, both strictly necessary for its operation. Neither is used for advertising and neither is disclosed to any third party.

We engage the following processors, each of which processes personal data solely on our documented instructions and under a written data processing agreement.

The earnings illustration retrieves published foreign exchange reference rates from a public rates service. That request transmits no personal data.

We otherwise disclose personal data only where required by law, where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or transfer of assets, in which case we will give notice on this page before any transfer takes effect.

Registration records are stored in Mumbai, India (AWS ap-south-1). If you are located outside India, your personal data is transferred to and stored in that jurisdiction. Where a transfer safeguard is required, including for data subjects in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses concluded with the relevant processor.

All data is encrypted in transit using TLS, both between your device and the Service and between the Service and our storage provider. Access to registration records is restricted to personnel who require it in order to operate the waitlist.

We retain registration records until the waitlist is closed and device allocation is complete, or until you request erasure, whichever occurs first. Where a registration remains inactive, we erase it no later than two years after the last interaction. Aggregate visit counts contain no personal data and are retained indefinitely.

Subject to applicable law, you may request that we do any of the following. We will not discriminate against you for making a request.

• Provide a copy of the personal data we hold concerning you.
• Rectify personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete.
• Erase your registration record in its entirety.
• Withdraw your consent and remove you from the waitlist.
• Restrict or object to our processing of your personal data.

To make a request, contact support@useplus.app from the email address used to register. We will respond within 30 days. Erasure removes your registration, your responses, your referral code and your referral counts. Erasure is irreversible and does not reverse priority already attributed to the participant who referred you.

Depending on your jurisdiction, these rights arise under the GDPR, the UK GDPR, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, or comparable legislation, and you may additionally have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

The Service is not directed to children. Registration is restricted to persons aged 18 or over, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from any person below that age. If you believe that a person below that age has provided us with personal data, contact support@useplus.app and we will erase the record.

We may amend this policy. The effective date shown above will be updated when we do so, and material changes will be notified by email to registered participants before they take effect.
