Privacy Policy

About This Privacy Policy

Ushur, Inc. (“Ushur”, “we” or “us”) takes privacy seriously and is committed to honoring yours. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use and share personal information in connection with operating our public website, www.ushur.com, or other online services that link to this Policy. By using our website, you consent to the practices described in this Policy unless further consent is required under applicable law.

This Policy doesn’t apply to personal information that we may process strictly on behalf of a client as part of our AI and process automation services (“Client Personal Information”). Our 15. Notice Of Client Data Processing explains our commitment to protecting Client Personal Information in our role as a service provider and data processor. If you believe that we have processed your personal information on behalf of a company who is our client, please review that company’s privacy policy and direct any inquiries there.

What Is Personal Information?

Generally speaking, your personal information includes your unique identifiers (full name, phone number, driver’s license number, email address, etc.) and information about your characteristics, conditions or behavior that is associated within one of your identifiers or could reasonably be linked to you.

Non-personal information, on the other hand, has been de-identified, aggregated or anonymized so that it cannot reasonably be linked to an individual.

How We Share Personal Information

Vendors

Ushur may share your information with vendors that perform services on our behalf, such as hosting our proprietary platform and services.

Where necessary and appropriate, our agreements with these partners prohibit them from retaining, using or disclosing the personal information we share with them for any purpose other than providing us with analytics or advertising services.

See Section 6. for a list of partners who use Cookies on our website.

Cookie Notice

This notice (“Cookie Notice”) supplements Ushur’s Privacy Policy. It applies to Ushur’s website, www.ushur.com, and any other online service that refers to the Privacy Policy or this notice.

What Are Cookies, And What Do They Mean For Privacy?

When we say “Cookies,” we mean traditional browser cookies, pixels (or web beacons), and other technologies that permit identification or tracking of a particular user, device or browser online. When you visit or use a website that uses cookies, or interact with an email or other online content that contains a pixel, your browser or device sends a request to the party that places that Cookie. In doing so, your browser or device may automatically provide your IP address, other device or browser Identifiers, Usage Information and Browsing History, or other personal information to that party.

A traditional cookie is a small text file that is stored on your device when you visit or use a website. Cookies are used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). Cookies ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors.

Cookies may be set by the web domain of the site that you are visiting, which we refer to as “first party cookies.” Some cookies may be set by a third party web domain other than the site that you are visiting, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services to the owner of the website, which we refer to as “third party cookies”.

Pixels may be embedded in websites or emails, and can be used to track your activity across different sites or report how you interact with emails or other online content. Pixels are typically small transparent images that provide the party placing them with statistics and usage data, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your device in the same way as cookies. As a result, if you disable cookies in your browser settings, tracking pixels may still load, but their functionality may be restricted.

Why Ushur Uses Cookies

We use Cookies for several different purposes. Some Cookies are necessary for technical reasons; some enable a personalized experience for users; some allow the display of advertising from selected third party networks; and some allow us to measure performance of marketing efforts. Some of these Cookies may be set when a page is loaded, or when a user takes a particular action.

Cookies may be set in different locations across our services. These locations may include:

  • Our website, www.ushur.com
  • Certain emails sent by us or on our behalf.

This list describes the categories of Cookies used on Ushur’s website and other online services:

Ways To Control Cookies

In addition to tools our partners may offer for controlling their Cookies, you may be able to block or delete Cookies by changing your browser settings.

If you block cookies, some features of our website or other sites may not function correctly for you.

California Residents

Third-Party Direct Marketing

If you are a California resident and have an established relationship with a business, you have a right to request information about the business’s disclosure of your personal information to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. Ushur does not disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

California Consumer Privacy Act

As of January 2020, Ushur is not a “business” as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended (the “CCPA”). As our business and operations expand, we are committed to reviewing applicability of the CCPA and other laws regarding privacy or data protection on at least an annual basis, and will update this Policy accordingly when necessary and appropriate. Some of our clients may be covered businesses under the CCPA. For those clients, we only process personal information on their behalf as a “service provider” as defined in the CCPA. Our 15. Notice Of Client Data Processing explains our commitment to safeguarding consumer privacy in our role as a service provider.

Data Subjects In The European Economic Area

Ushur is headquartered in the United States. Our services are for business organizations; we do not offer goods or services to consumers or other natural persons in the European Economic Area (EEA). If you visit our website or contact us, your personal data will be processed in the United States—which has neither sought nor received a finding of “adequacy” from the European Commission under Article 25 of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation—and will be handled in accordance with this Policy and applicable U.S. law unless we have agreed otherwise in writing with you or with a client or supplier you are affiliated with.

Some of the data that we collect or otherwise process on behalf of clients may include Client Personal Information relating to natural persons who are in the EEA or who otherwise have rights under GDPR. Ushur processes such Client Personal Information strictly as a “data processor” to our client as that term is defined in the GDPR. Our 15. Notice of Client Data Processing describes our commitment to data protection in our role as a data processor.

“Do Not Track” Signals

Your browser may offer a Do Not Track (DNT) setting. If you turn that setting on, your browser sends a signal to websites indicating that you don’t want to be tracked over time or across third party sites. We don’t currently respond to these signals because there is not yet a common understanding of how to process them or a consensus on what “tracking” means.

Data Security

Ushur maintains reasonable security procedures and practices to protect personal information from unauthorized access, theft, loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Despite these precautions however, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will not obtain access to your personal data because “perfect security” is impossible in the digital age.

We encourage you to help maximize security by applying your own personal security measures. For more information about what you can do to protect your data, please see the tips and resources offered by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission at https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/topics/privacy-identity-online-security and the California Attorney General at https://www.oag.ca.gov/privacy/consumer-privacy-resources.

Links To Third Party Sites

Our website may provide links to third-party websites or information as a service to users. If you use these links, you will leave our site. Such links do not constitute or imply an endorsement, sponsorship or recommendation by Ushur of the third party, the third-party website or the information contained therein, and Ushur shall not be responsible or liable for your use thereof. Such use shall be subject to the terms of use and privacy policies applicable to those sites.

Children’s Privacy

Ushur does not provide services or sell products to children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect or maintain any personal information from anyone under the age of 18. We will remove or delete any personal information we believe was submitted by any child under the age of 18.

Changes To This Policy

If our Privacy Policy or procedures change, we will immediately post those changes to our website. Any such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted, unless otherwise stated in the change.
