2. Data We Receive from Third Parties

 

2.1. Data From Affiliates and Non-Affiliated Third Parties

We may collect information about you or others through GO-PHOR affiliates or through non-affiliated third parties. For example, you may be able to access the Platform through a social networking account, such as Facebook.

For example, to the extent permitted by law, we may, in our sole discretion, ask for and collect supplemental information from third parties, such as information about your credit from a credit bureau, or information to verify your identity or trustworthiness, or for other fraud or safety protection purposes. We may combine information that we collect from you through the Platform with information that we obtain from such affiliated and non-affiliated third parties and information derived from any other products or services we provide.

 

3. Other Data We Collect Through Your Use of the Platform

 

Location and Sensor Information. We receive a Customer’s location information when you’re using the GO-PHOR app, including when the app is in use in the foreground or background. We may continuously collect location information and other motion-generated or orientation-generated mobile sensor data from GO-PHORs and Prospective GO-PHORs when the GO-PHOR app is in use in the foreground or background in order to personalize the app experience, assist in finding available markets and/or available delivery opportunities, offer delivery incentives, track the progress and completion of deliveries, and other similar purposes. We also use this information for analytics purposes. For information on your choices for sharing location information, please consult Section 7 on Your Choices.

Referrals. You may be able to refer GO-PHOR to friends and other contacts. To help you do this, we may request and you can grant us access to your mobile device address book. You can then direct us to send referral text messages or referral emails to contacts you select in your address book. We will use the data from your address book only to process your referral. By sending a referral, you also consent to GO-PHOR sending your public profile image to the contacts you select to receive a referral link.

After a delivery, we may share feedback or comments that Customers provide with GO-PHORs and/or Merchants, but we will not identify the Customer. We may also share with GO-PHORs their aggregate ratings. Customers may also provide us information and feedback related to your experience on the Platform, including, but not limited to delivery request reviews, GO-PHOR reviews and GO-PHOR ratings.

5. How GO-PHOR Shares Collected User Data

 

5.1. Sharing between Customers and GO-PHORs

When GO-PHORs are offered delivery opportunities, they may be able to see the Customer’s delivery location. Once a GO-PHOR accepts a delivery request from a Customer, the Customer can see the GO-PHOR’s name and the GO-PHOR can see the Customer’s name. A Customer is also able to see a GO-PHOR’s photo, aggregate rating, and other information to identify the GO-PHOR, including, but not limited to the GO-PHOR’s license plate, and color, make, and model of vehicle. During a delivery, the Customer is able to see the GO-PHOR’s real-time location, and the GO-PHOR may be able to see the Customer’s delivery address and/or real-time location. During a delivery, Customers and GO-PHORs are able to call and text each other. Customers and GO-PHORs may be able to see the each other’s phone number. As described above, Customers are able to see a GO-PHOR’s aggregate ratings during a delivery. After a delivery, we may share feedback or comments that a Customer provides with a GO-PHOR, but we will not identify the Customer. We may also share with GO-PHORs their aggregate ratings.

 

5.2. Sharing between GO-PHORs and Merchants

Before a GO-PHOR picks up the delivery from the Merchant and/or Partner and during the delivery, the Merchant and/or Partners may be able to see the GO-PHOR’s real-time location.

 

5.3. Sharing between Customers and Merchants

We may share your name, phone number, email address, and/or any physical address associated with your account or any delivery, with the Merchants from whom you’ve placed orders. Merchants may also have access to your public profile image, your feedback, and order information, including your purchase history and other information related to your orders with the particular Merchant. Such information provided to Merchants is not subject to this Privacy Policy.

 

5.4. Service Providers

We share your information with service providers that perform services on our behalf, including all of the uses described in Section 4 above.

 

5.5. Other Sharing

We may share your information with third parties in the following cases:

• Where disclosure is required or appropriate in order to comply with laws, regulations, legal process, or a governmental request;

6. Advertising Partners

 

Third parties whose products or services are accessible or marketed via the Platform may also place cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other device to collect information about your use of the Platform in order to (a) inform, optimize, and serve marketing content based on past visits to our websites and other sites and (b) report how our marketing content impressions, other uses of marketing services, and interactions with these marketing impressions and marketing services are related to visits to our websites. We also allow other third parties (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Google Analytics, DoubleClick, and others) to serve tailored marketing to you and to access their own cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Platform. We neither have access to, nor does this Privacy Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Platform by non-affiliated, third-party ad technology, ad servers, ad networks or any other non-affiliated third parties. Those parties that use these technologies may offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising as described below. You may receive tailored advertising on your computer through a web browser. Cookies may be associated with de-identified data linked to or derived from data you voluntarily have submitted to us (e.g., your email address) that we may share with a service provider in hashed, non-human-readable form.

If you are interested in more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored marketing, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative's Consumer Opt-Out Link and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance's Consumer Opt-Out Link to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. To opt out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising or customize Google Display Network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page. Please note that to the extent advertising technology is integrated into the Platform, you may still receive advertising content even if you opt out of tailored advertising. In that case, the advertising content will just not be tailored to your interests. Also, we do not control any of the above opt-out links and are not responsible for any choices you make using these mechanisms or the continued availability or accuracy of these mechanisms. If your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit this opt-out page, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different computer or change web browsers, your NAI or DAA opt-out may no longer be effective. Additional information is available on NAI's and DAA's websites, accessible by the above links.

 

7. Third-Party Links

 

Our Platform may contain links to other websites, products, or services that we do not have control over. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such third parties. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before giving them your information.

 

8. Data Security

 

We are committed to protecting your information. Even though we take precautions to protect Users’ data, no security measures can be 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of Users’ data.

 

9. Consent to Transfer

 

Our computer systems are currently based in the United States, so your personal data will be processed by us in the United States, where data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world. If you create an account with the Platform as a visitor from outside the United States, by using the Platform, you agree to this Privacy Policy and you consent to the transfer of all such information to the United States, which may not offer a level of protection equivalent to that required in certain other countries, and to the processing of that information as described in this Privacy Policy.

 

10. Children’s Privacy

 

GO-PHOR is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children 12 and under. If you believe that a child under the age of 13 has given us personal information, please contact us via info@GO-PHOR.com.

 

11. California Do-Not-Track Disclosure

 

We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our Platform for third party purposes. That is why we have provided links (above) to the NAI "Consumer Opt-Out" link, the DAA opt-out link, and a Google opt-out link. However, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do-Not-Track signals, as the Internet industry is currently still working on Do-Not-Track standards, implementations and solutions.

 

12. Your California Privacy Rights

 

California Law permits California residents to request certain information once per year regarding our disclosure of “personal information” (as that term is defined under applicable California law) to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send written notice, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), noting that you are making a “California Privacy Request” to the following address:
