Thank you for using Uphill Inc cannabis company, the premier Delivery and distribution company. This Privacy Policy applies to your use of Uphill, Norcanna Farms, and Gauntlet distribution, and any websites, mobile applications, services, programs, or features (the “Uphill and all its family cannabis affiliates”) owned or operated by Uphill Inc and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, “Uphill Inc,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). Uphill Inc values your privacy, and taking proper care of your information is a top priority for us. Our goal is to help you understand what information we collect about you (also known as “User Data”) and describe how we use that information to provide you and all of our users with safe and secure access to legal cannabis, industrial hemp-derived CBD, and other products and accessories.
This Privacy Policy is part of, and is governed by, the terms and conditions set forth in our Terms of Service, including any agreements incorporated by reference within the Terms of Service (the “Uphill Privacy Options”). Any terms not defined in this Privacy Policy will have the meaning given to them in our Terms of Service. If you do not feel comfortable with any part of this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service, you should stop using or accessing the Uphill websites (not limited to norcanna.com, norcannafarms.com) and terminate your Account.
We collect information about you when you provide it to us directly, when we request it from you, or when you give us permission to get it from a third-party source. Below are some examples of the types of information we collect.
When you sign up for any Uphill Inc account, you give us your name, email address, phone number, date of birth, and, if necessary, a copy of your government-issued ID (i.e. your driver’s license, state ID card, or passport). In order to receive a delivery or shipment, you must provide a valid delivery address — whether that’s your home address or any other valid physical address. Additional information we receive from you may include, but is not limited to, a state-issued medical marijuana ID card or a physician’s recommendation letter that you provide us in order to receive a medical delivery, or a selfie image to improve trust and safety on our website(s).
We also collect demographic information from you when you register, when you take our surveys, and throughout your use of the website. Demographic information may include your age, gender, location, how you heard about Uphill, Norcanna, Norcanna Farms, spending habits, consumption preferences, and other preferences or habits.
If you contact us directly, we may collect information from you that helps us provide a satisfying experience and answers any questions you have while using Uphill Inc. For example, when you communicate with a member of our customer service team, we may ask you for your name, email address, delivery address, phone number, or proof of charge in order to identify your account, confirm your identity, or assist with your issue. If you send us an email, we will collect the contents of that email and any other information you choose to provide with your email. If you communicate with us via live chat, that correspondence will be archived. If you communicate with us via social media, we collect that communication and associate that information with your user account to the extent the information can be linked. Customer service communications over the phone may be recorded for quality control purposes and may be summarized within our customer support systems.
Payment information may be collected in connection with a transaction facilitated by Uphill. For other products and services, payments may be made directly to Uphill or another third party. In all cases, while we may retain a limited amount of payment information for identification and convenience, to keep your financial data secure, we do not store full payment or financial information on our servers. Unless otherwise noted, payment information flows through a third-party vendor who processes the payments for Retailers and Uphill Inc.
From time to time, we may invite you to fill out voluntary user surveys or to participate in focus groups to provide feedback on various topics, which may include, without limitation: your experiences with Uphill Inc and/or our partners, your experience with the Norcanna Farms, available products, new services, your preferences related to cannabis, and your sentiments on public policy or other cannabis industry topics. These surveys are often conducted by Uphill Inc. or third-party market research firms, who collect such data on our behalf, to analyze industry preferences and trends. Uphill Inc does not share your survey information on an individualized basis and does not share this data for direct marketing to its users.
Like most online services, Uphill Inc automatically collects technical information about you or your device used to access the Uphill Platform. We collect information from your browser, computer, mobile device, or other device used to access the website norcannafarms.com or its Platform. Below we provide examples of the types of data we may collect about you.
We collect your location information when you provide us with a delivery address, or we may use geolocation-based services to verify your location. For instance, knowing your location may be necessary to allow you full access to our mobile applications or certain aspects of the Uphill Platform. Furthermore, for compliance reasons, some of the Uphill Inc. Platform may be restricted depending on where you are located. Collecting your location information is also necessary to connect you to a licensed retailer that services your delivery area, to send you relevant content based on your location, and to optimize or improve our products and services.
We log how you interact with the Uphill Inc by automatically recording data sent by your application or browser. This includes, but is not limited to, the products and content you view, your actions on the Uphill Platform, how you access our Uphill (norcannafarms.com), and the details of any orders you place.
We collect information about the device you are using, such as the device’s IP address, web browser, operating system, phone carrier, manufacturer, unique identifiers (such as advertising ID, VIN, MAC address, and IDFA), and other related software or hardware information related to your device.
We also collect information through the use of “cookies,” tracking pixels, and similar technologies. Cookies are small text files created by websites and stored on your device. They provide a way for the Uphill or norcannafarms.com Platform to recognize you and keep track of your settings and preferences. We also use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a secure experience and to understand, among other things, how you navigate the Uphill Inc Platforms, learn what content is popular, recognize repeat users, and save your account information. The norcannafarms.com is not configured to read or respond to “do not track” settings or signals in your browser settings.
We work with third-party partners to facilitate phone calls and text messages, including communications between you and your driver. We collect information about such communications, including the date and time of the call or SMS message, the parties’ phone numbers, and the content of any SMS messages. This helps us provide and optimize our services and the Uphill or norcannafarms.com.
We want to make sure you have a consistently positive experience with the Uphill Inc, and we are always looking to improve our products and services. Accordingly, we collect and retain information about any ratings, reviews, and feedback you provide about our service, the Uphill Inc, the products on our site, licensed retailers, and their drivers.
When you place an on-demand delivery order through Norcannafarms.com, that order is fulfilled and delivered to you by one of our licensed Budtenders. We collect information about you from the retailers or their drivers based on your interactions with them. For instance, when your delivery driver reaches the delivery address you provided, they will check your government-issued ID and ask for your signature before completing the transaction. In certain jurisdictions, when required by local law or regulation, your delivery driver will also scan the barcode on the back of your government-issued ID to confirm that the information displayed on the ID is accurate. You may also communicate with your driver via text or phone call in order to complete the delivery. While we collect this information about you through the retailer, please note that this Privacy Policy does not cover the information or privacy practices of retailers.
We may collect information from public sources, such as map information and public social media information.
We may receive information about you from our advertisers, such as your interests and preferences to help us provide you with tailored advertisements.
We may collect information about you directly from our vendor services or tools if your use of their services led to or related to your use of Uphill Inc. or your job candidacy. For example, if you applied for a job with Uphill Inc., we may run a background check with a vendor. We may also utilize such services as a means of collecting information from you as described above. The information we collect from vendors will be treated in the same manner as the information we collect from you directly.
In addition to the uses described above, we also use the information we collect about you to:
We may share your information as described below:
In order to facilitate deliveries, we share information with our business partners, including licensed retailers and their drivers. When you send an order to the retailer through Uphill or Norcannafarms.com, the retailer receives information required to complete your order, such as your first name, delivery address, order details, birthdate, and a picture of your face taken from your government-issued ID. The retailer connects you with a driver who fulfills your order, and the driver receives this information to complete the delivery. The driver never sees a full upload of your ID. When the driver arrives with your order, they will check your ID in person to verify your identity in accordance with applicable law.
We may share your personal information with businesses that are legally part of the same group of companies that Uphill inc. is part of, or that become part of that group (“Affiliates”). Affiliates may use this information to help provide, understand, and improve the Uphill inc. and Affiliates’ own services (including by providing you with better and more relevant experiences).
We share aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized information with third parties. Aggregated and anonymized means that user information is combined together with all personally identifiable information removed so that any individual user cannot be identified. De-identified information means we have removed any identifiers that make a user identifiable, such as their name or address. We may also share anonymized, aggregated and/or de-identified data with third parties for educational, marketing, consulting, or independent research purposes. This data provides valuable information, including how users interact with Uphill norcannafarms.com, our partners, available products, and also helps us drive conversation on consumer habits, preferences, and behavior within the cannabis industry. When we share anonymized, de-identified, and/or aggregated data, we require the third party not to re-identify individuals and to have technical and business safeguards that prevent re-identification and inadvertent release of such information.
We may share your information with service providers, business partners, consultants, tools, and services to facilitate Uphill inc. operations such as verification, compliance, marketing, communications, statistical analysis, hosting, database management, and a number of other functions. We share your information with these parties to perform their respective specific tasks on our behalf.
We only disclose information about you to a government authority, law enforcement official, public health or safety official, or one of our partners if we believe we are required to by law, or in order to respond to or comply with regulations or legal processes, including, but not limited to, responding to subpoenas or warrants. We may also share your information if we think doing so is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Uphill inc, our partners and their employees, our users, the public, or others.
There may be instances where you direct us to share personal information on your behalf, such as for medical records, for legal or administrative proceedings, or otherwise.
In the event that all or a portion of the assets, business, or stock of Uphill or any of its affiliated companies are acquired by or merged with another party, your information may be among those assets transferred. An acquirer of Uphill Inc or its assets may continue to use your information as described in this Privacy Policy. We will notify you with any choices you may have regarding your information as a result of such acquisition or merger.
If we share your information as described in this Privacy Policy, we will seek assurances from the recipients of your information that they will safeguard your information in a manner consistent with this policy. Such assurances, where appropriate, may include contractual relationships with confidentiality clauses and non-disclosure agreements that provide the same level of commitment to safeguarding your information as provided in this Privacy Policy.
You can always unsubscribe from Uphill inc. promotional emails by clicking the link provided at the bottom of the email. We will still send you transactional emails and receipts generated from your use of Uphill as these are not promotional communications.
You can opt out of receiving promotional text messages by texting the word STOP from the mobile device receiving the messages to the phone number you received the message from. Promotional texts are SMS messages sent to you containing offers, promo codes, or deal reminders. Standard messaging rates from your cell phone carrier will apply.
If you are using the Norcannafarms.com mobile application(s), you can opt out of receiving promotional push notifications through your device settings. Please note that opting out of receiving transactional push notifications, such as receiving a notification that your order has arrived, may impact your use of Norcannafarms delivery service.
You can prevent your device from sharing geolocation information at any time through your device settings. Please note that the use of geolocation information may be necessary to access some of our services, such as mobile applications that may only allow access to users in states that have legalized the sale of recreational cannabis.
You can review and edit certain account information at any time by logging into your account and navigating to your “Account Settings.”
