This Privacy Policy explains how FeedUp collects, uses and discloses personal information.
FeedUp Services Inc. take privacy and data security seriously. We are committed to transparency in the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we use personal information, and the circumstances under which we may share this information with a third party. This Privacy Policy applies to the privacy practices of FeedUp on our website located at: www.feedupnow.com, or the various associated websites, platforms or applications (collectively and each individually, the “FeedUp Platform”) but does not include personal information relating to employees in such a capacity.
Some vendors or Feeders may use the FeedUp Platform to provide delivery services for orders placed on the vendor’s or Feeder’s own website, application or ordering platform. In such circumstances, we will process data received from such Feeder or vendor in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
By visiting and/or using the FeedUp Platform, you consent to the collection, use, storage, disclosure and transfer of your personal information as set out in this policy. In some cases, we may ask you to provide explicit consent if we intend to collect, use or disclose your personal information otherwise than as indicated in this Privacy Policy, however sometimes your consent may be implied through your conduct with us.
If you do not agree with any part of this Privacy Policy you should not conduct any transactions on the FeedUp Platform, navigate away from the FeedUp Platform immediately, and uninstall our application.
Collection and Use of Personal Information
This section explains the purposes for which FeedUp collects personal information
Account Creation:
We collect your name, phone number, email address, a hashed password of your selection, the date and time of account creation and the IP address and device identifier of the device used for account creation. We use this information to administer your account, to enable your access to the FeedUp Platform, verify your identity as an authorized user concerning any accounts, and to implement, carry out and maintain security measures aimed at protecting our customers from identity theft, fraud and unauthorized access to an account. You may choose to register for an account via a third- party social media network, including Facebook and Google (“Social Media”). If you do so, you authorize us to access certain Social Media account information consistent with your Social Media privacy settings, including your name. We use this information to administer your account, and to enable your access to the FeedUp Platform.
Social Media:
We may offer you the opportunity to otherwise engage with FeedUp or its content on or through Social Media. When you engage with us through Social Media websites, plug-ins and applications, you may allow us to have access to and disclose certain information associated with your Social Media account (e.g., name, username, email address, profile picture) to deliver content or as part of the operation of the website, plug-in or application.
Placing an Order:
We collect information relating to any orders you place on the FeedUp Platform, including the IP address of the device used to place the order to help protect against theft, fraud and unauthorized access to an account, and certain payment information using the secure services of our payment processors. Payment operations are outsourced to our payment processors and we do not store your credit card information in our systems other than the first four and last four digits of the credit card number.
If your order has been placed for delivery, we collect the physical address to which you have requested delivery. We use this information to complete your delivery, and to allow you to select previously entered addresses for future deliveries. If you submit an order for alcohol, you may be asked to provide government-issued identification upon delivery, to confirm that you are of legal age.
Gift Cards:
When you purchase a gift card for use on the FeedUp Platform, your payment card information (including payment card number, security code, expiration date, cardholder name and billing address) is transmitted using the secure services of our payment processors for the purposes of processing your payment. We also collect the gift card recipient’s email address and any information contained in the message to the recipient. We use this information to deliver and manage the gift card.
Order History:
We may collect your order history including the date, time, cost, order type (takeout, delivery order, or subscription order), physical address and delivery instructions (if a delivery order), method of purchase, and order details, including specific food items ordered and special order instructions. We use this information to ensure that your order has been completed and to improve our service offerings.
Marketing and Other Communications
This section explains when we may contact you for marketing purposes or to inform you about important changes or other developments to the FeedUp Platform, products, services or your account.
We may use your personal information to contact you for your views regarding FeedUp and to notify you occasionally about important changes or developments to the FeedUp Platform, products, services or your account. You cannot opt out of receiving notifications of important changes or developments (e.g. to this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Service/Use) unless you discontinue use of the FeedUp Platform.
You agree that we may use your personal information to let you know about our other events, products and services that may be of interest to you including services that may be the subject of direct marketing. We may contact you to do so by telephone, SMS/MMS and email and if you use our mobile application, via push notification. It is always your choice whether to receive or to continue receiving such marketing materials and updates from FeedUp. We will not send you any direct marketing communications unless you have separately consented to receive such communications or such consent has been deemed to have been given under applicable law. If you no longer wish to receive direct marketing communications, you can opt-out using the unsubscribe mechanism in the marketing communication itself (e.g. by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of an email or by replying with the word “STOP” to an SMS/MMS or by following other provided instructions). To manage push notifications, go to the settings page of your phone or tablet and change the push notification permission for the FeedUp app. If you switch off in-app push notifications, you will no longer receive updates on your orders via push.
Server and Feeder Reviews:
We may offer you the opportunity to submit a review of Servers and/or Feeders on the FeedUp Platform. When your review is published, the results may be made available to Servers and/or Feeders in appropriate circumstances. You also consent to us using such reviews in any marketing or advertising materials.
Referrals:
The referral, “refer a friend” and other similar features on the FeedUp Platform permit you to send an email to other individuals that may be interested in FeedUp. This feature may require you to submit your name and email address, as well as the name and email address of the recipient. We do not use the names or email addresses submitted in these circumstances for any other purpose without the consent of you or the email recipient to do so. Please ensure that you only submit email addresses of individuals with whom you have a personal or family relationship and who would want to receive the message.
Employment Opportunities:
In connection with a job application or related inquiry, you may provide us with personal information including a resume, cover letter, or similar employment-related materials. This information will be used for the purposes of processing and responding to your application for current and future career opportunities, and to manage any ongoing working relationship.
Become a Server:
You may apply to become an independently contracted Server by providing us with personal information such as your name, contact information, identification documents, proof of work eligibility, banking information, device ID as well as other contractor-related materials that we require from you. We use this information for the purpose of processing and responding to your application, purposes of fraud protection and prevention including the prevention of duplicate Server accounts, and to manage any ongoing contractor relationship.
Surveys and Research:
From time to time, FeedUp may offer you the opportunity to participate in one of our surveys or other research, or to provide feedback regarding your order or experience with FeedUp. The information obtained through our surveys and research is used in an aggregated, non-personally identifiable form to help us understand users of the FeedUp Platform and to enhance our product and service offerings. FeedUp may use personal information to create data in aggregate and/or de-identified format for internal research, analytics and any other legally permissible purposes.
Contests and Promotions:
When you enter a contest or participate in a promotion, FeedUp may collect your name, address, phone number, email address, and other information you provide. This information is used to administer your participation in the contest, sweepstakes or promotion.
Apply to Become a Feeder or Vendor:
You may apply to become a vendor on the FeedUp Platform by providing us with your name, phone number, email address, physical address as well as other vendor materials. In most instances, this information would be considered business contact information rather than personal information. We use this information for the purpose of processing and responding to your application, and to manage any ongoing vendor relationship.
Contact Us:
When you contact us with a comment or question, we collect the information you provide such as your name and email address, along with additional information that we may need to help us promptly respond to your inquiry. We retain this information to assist you in the future and to improve our customer service and service offerings. We also use personal information to establish and manage our relationship with you and provide quality service. We may record voice calls for training and quality purposes.
Information We Collect Automatically
This section explains the information we collect automatically when you visit the FeedUp Platform
We and our third-party service providers, including Google Analytics, collect, process, store and analyze information when you visit the FeedUp Platform, including IP address, your location when the FeedUp mobile application is used, device identifiers, browser characteristics, operating system details, language preferences, referring URLs, length of visits, pages viewed and other related information. We also use “cookies” or other tools that track, measure and analyze the behaviors and usage patterns of visitors to the FeedUp Platform. We use this information to help us understand how visitors engage with the FeedUp Platform and to improve our visitors’ experience.
A cookie is a tiny element of data that the FeedUp Platform can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your web browser or mobile device so we can recognize you when you return. The information that cookies collect includes the date and time of your visit, your registration information, session identification number, and your navigational history and preferences.
We use cookies for analytics purposes as well as for certain features of the FeedUp Platform. The use of cookies is an industry standard and many major browsers and smartphones are initially set up to accept them. You may set your web browser or smartphone to notify you when you receive a cookie or to not accept certain cookies. However, if you decide not to accept cookies from the FeedUp Platform, you may not be able to take advantage of all its features.
Some third-party service providers may use cookies on our site. We have no control over those cookies and they are not covered by this Privacy Policy.
You can obtain additional information on Google Analytics’ collection and processing of data and data privacy and security, including how to learn more about opting out of Google Analytics’ data collection by visiting the Google Analytics website.
If you are an independently contracted Server on the FeedUp Platform, we need to access your location while you are using the Server App so that we can offer you orders for delivery, which you can always accept or decline, and track your location during delivery. We show your location to Feeders so that they can prepare the order for when you will be arriving and to customers (“Eaters”) so that they know where their food is and when to expect delivery. We also need to access your location while you are looking for a shift, to show you delivery zones near you.
If you are using an iOS device, you must set your location settings to “Allow Location Access: Always” and “Precise location: on”.
If you are using an Android device, you must set your location settings to “Allow Location Access all the time”.
These tracking settings must be turned on while you are using the Server App. If you turn off the tracking settings on your phone, the Server App will not work properly, and your phone will prompt you to switch the location settings back on.
You may choose to turn off these settings when you are not using the Server App. Even if you choose to leave these settings on when you are not using the Server App, FeedUp will not access your location when you are not on shift or using the Server App.
Interest-Based Advertising
This section explains how FeedUp uses Interest-Based Advertising to show you ads targeted to your interests, and how you may opt out of Interest-Based Advertising
We use cookies and other technologies for interest-based advertising purposes.

To learn more about Interest-Based Advertising in mobile apps and to opt out of this type of advertising by third-party advertising companies that participate in the DAAC’s AppChoices tool, please download the version of AppChoices for your device at https://youradchoices.ca/appchoices/.
On your mobile device, you may also have a “Limit Ad Tracking” setting (in iOS devices) or a setting to “Opt-out of Interest-Based Ads” (on Android), which allows you to limit the use of information about your use of apps for purposes of serving ads targeted to your interests.
Please be aware that, even if you opt out of interest-based advertising, you may continue to receive ads from us, but they will not be served using interest-based information about you. Also, to successfully opt out, you must have cookies enabled in your web browser. If your browser is configured to reject cookies when you visit these opt-out webpages, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different device or web browser, your opt-out instruction may not, or may no longer, be effective. Your opt-out selections only apply to the web browser you use so you must opt out of each web browser on each device that you use. Once you opt out, if you delete your browser’s saved cookies, you may need to opt out again.
Custom Audience
We may also use services provided by third-party platforms (such as Social Media and other websites) to serve targeted advertisements on such platforms to you or others, and we may provide a hashed version of your email address or other information to the platform provider for such purposes. To opt out of the use of your information for such purposes, please contact us at legal@feedupnow.com. Please be aware that, even if you opt out of Custom Audience Ads, you may continue to receive ads from us, but they will not be served using Custom Audience Ads.
We may use Social Media, or other third parties, to serve Custom Audience Ads on their platforms. You may be able to set your preferences for advertisements through your account settings on the platforms.

The third parties with whom we share your information may undertake various activities such as processing credit card payments and providing services or products for us. In addition, we may need to provide your personal information to any vendors that a customer has placed an order with and Servers to allow the order to be processed and delivered.

If our business enters into a joint venture with, purchases or is sold to or merged with another business entity, your personal information may be disclosed or transferred to the target company, our new business partners or owners or their advisors provided that the information disclosed continues to be used for the purposes permitted by this Privacy Policy by the entity acquiring the information.
We may use the personal information that you provide to us if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal information in order to comply with (and/or where we believe we are under a duty to comply with) any applicable legal obligation; or in order to enforce the Terms of Service/Use and any other agreement we have with you. This includes exchanging personal information with other companies and other organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and prevention. We and our service providers may use or disclose your personal information in response to a search warrant or other legally valid inquiry or order, or to another organization for the purposes of investigating a breach of an agreement or contravention of law or detecting, suppressing or preventing fraud, or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law or legal process.

We may retain certain data as necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse, or for legitimate business purposes, such as analysis of aggregated, non-personal information, or account recovery, or if required or permitted by law. All retained personal information will remain subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you request that your name be removed from our databases, it may not be possible to completely delete all your personal information due to technological limitations.

Once we have received your personal information, we will use organizational and technical safeguards to try to prevent unauthorised access.
