Draft copy — pending owner approval. Mirrors the in-app disclosure at Settings → Privacy; wording not final.
If you tick that box, you let us use how you browse and shop on uvy — the storefronts and products you look at, what you put in a cart, and which features you use — to improve the recommendations you see and to help creators improve their storefronts.
That is the whole of it. It is optional, it is separate from the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy you accept to have an account, and you can change your mind whenever you like.
If you leave the box unticked, we do not collect any of this. Nothing about your account, your store, your orders or any feature works differently.
Go to Settings → Privacy and switch off “Product analytics”. It takes effect immediately, and we delete the analytics we already collected about you (see “What happens when you turn it off”).
Only what happens on uvy’s own app and website:
We do not collect the contents of your messages, posts, searches or photos. Our servers strip anything that looks like personal data — email addresses, phone numbers, names — out of these records before storing them, in addition to the app not sending them.
That is the complete list. We do not use it to decide anything about you individually, and there is no automated decision-making involved.
uvy runs its own analytics on its own infrastructure. This data is not handed to a third-party analytics vendor.
Individual records are deleted automatically after 90 days.
We also keep counts — how many people visited a storefront on a given day, for example. Those counts are anonymous: they contain no record of who you are and cannot be traced back to you. We keep them longer, and they are not affected by turning analytics off.
Three things, immediately:
Anonymous counts already calculated stay as they are, because they hold nothing about you.
What is NOT deleted: records we keep for other reasons entirely — your orders, your account, and security logs such as sign-ins. Those exist to run your account and fulfil your purchases, not because you allowed analytics, so switching analytics off does not remove them. Deleting your account is a separate request and covers more.
If your browser sends Global Privacy Control, we treat that as “no” and leave this off, without you having to do anything.
You can still switch it on deliberately if you want to. We record that the signal was present when you did, so it is clear the choice was yours.
We rely on your consent for this, and only this. Everything necessary to run your account and fulfil your orders rests on our contract with you, and continues whatever you choose here.
Every time you grant, decline or withdraw, we write a dated record of it. That record is how we prove what you chose, and it is kept even after you withdraw — it is evidence of your decision, not analytics about you.
