Last Updated: February 18, 2021

At Drop Locker, our most important asset is our relationship with our user community. We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality, integrity and security of information about our users. This Privacy Policy describes how we treat personal information when you visit the Drop Locker, Inc.’s Website or use our services (the “Service”).  

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and considered a part of, the Drop Locker Terms of Service, currently located at https://myaccount.droplockerpayments.com/account/main/terms. Any terms not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Terms and Conditions.

  1. MEMBER CONSENT

By submitting or making available Personal Data (as defined below) through our Website, phone, or mobile application (collectively, the “Drop Locker Software”) or the Drop Locker Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the processing of your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Your Personal Data may be processed in the country in which it was collected and in other countries, including the United States, where laws regarding processing of Personal Data may be less stringent than the laws in your country.

  1. TYPES OF PERSONAL DATA WE COLLECT

Drop Locker collects Personal Data and Anonymous Data from you when you visit our Website, when you send us information or communications in connection with your use of the Drop Locker Service, and/or when you download and use the Drop Locker Software. Personal Data means data that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your full name, age, address, geographic location of your computer or mobile device, telephone number, credit/debit card number, email address, IP address, page history, ads clicked on, or transaction related information, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. “Anonymous Data means data about you that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Data; Anonymous Data does not permit the identification of individual persons. We collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.  We will store data about your purchase history and transaction information, which is stored on a cumulative basis. We will also track search terms that you enter while using the Drop Locker Service. We may store such tracking information in a manner that can be associated with specific users.   We may also collect non-personally identifiable information and aggregate and anonymize such information, for example, tracking the number of visitors to the Service, where visitors enter the Service, how long they remain, etc., in connection with the operation of the Service.  

Personal Data You Provide To Us

We may collect Personal Data from you, such as first and last name, email and mailing addresses, telephone number, age, and password, when you register for the Drop Locker Service. In addition, we (or our third-party credit card or payment processor on our behalf) will collect Personal Data including your credit card number or account information when you register for the Services. We also retain information on your behalf, such as the Personal Data described above and any correspondence. If you provide us feedback or contact us via email, we will collect your name and email address, IP address, as well as any other content included in the email, in order to send you a reply, and any information that you submit to us, such as a resume. If we conduct a survey in which you participate, we may collect additional profile information. We may also collect Personal Data at other instances in the Drop Locker Software user experience where we state that Personal Data is being collected.

Personal Data Collected by Third Parties

We may receive Personal Data about you from other sources like telephone or fax, from companies that distribute the Drop Locker Service by way of a co-branded or private-labeled website, companies that offer their products and/or services via the Drop Locker Service, or companies that provide services (such as payment processing services) in connection with the Drop Locker Service (collectively, Partner Companies). Our Partner Companies may supply us with Personal Data, such as your name and email and mailing address information or your login credentials for such Partner Company’s website or service, in order to help us establish the account or fulfill orders. We may add this information to the information we have already collected from you via our Website in order to perform and improve the Drop Locker Service. Partner Companies and their employees who work in a location where you drop off or pick up laundry through the Services may have access to your Personal Data to perform and improve the Services and are obligated not to disclose or use such Personal Data for any other purpose.

This Privacy Policy applies only to the use and disclosure of Personal Data that we collect while you use the Drop Locker Service. Our provision of a link to any other website or location is for your convenience and does not signify our endorsement of such other website or location or its contents. The fact that we link to a website or present a banner ad or other type of advertisement is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of our affiliation with that third party, nor is it an endorsement of their privacy or information security policies or practices. We do not exercise control over third party websites. When you click on such a link, you will leave our Website and go to another site. During this process, a third party may collect Personal Data or Anonymous Data from you. We have no control over, do not review, and cannot be responsible for, these outside websites or their content. Please be aware that the terms of this Privacy Policy do not apply to these outside websites or content, or to any collection of data after you click on a link to a third party.

Personal Data Collected via Technology

The Drop Locker Service (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider) collects Personal Data from you, such as browser type, geographic location of your mobile device or computer, operating system and version, Internet Protocol (IP) address, domain name, information about your application, operating environment and hardware profiles and/or a date/time stamp for your visit. We may also use Cookies (as defined below) and navigational data like Uniform Resource Locators (URL) to gather information regarding the date and time of your visit and/or access to the Drop Locker Service and your activity on the Drop Locker Software. In addition to cookies for the above purposes, we also use “transparent GIFs,” on the Service to help manage online advertising and e-mail marketing that we may conduct in the future.  These transparent GIF files are commonly used and provided by one or more third-party service providers, and enable service providers to recognize a unique cookie in your web browser to learn which advertisements or e-mails brought you to our Website and how you use the Service.  To conduct these or other activities, we or our service providers sometimes may link Personal Information you previously provided us (such as, for example, your name and e-mail address) to the information the transparent GIF files provide about how you arrive at, navigate through and leave the Service. We may also include tracking pixels and web beacons in advertisements or promotions. Like most Internet services, we automatically gather this Personal Data and store it in log files each time you visit the Website or access your account on our network. 

Cookies are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are viewing a website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them, or for an extended period of time) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience while using the Drop Locker Service. Persistent Cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions. If you choose to disable Cookies, some areas of the Site, the Application and/or the Drop Locker Service may not function correctly.

We may also collect personal information when you register to join the Services (or choose to update your account data) by logging into an account that you already have with a third party social networking platform (“SNP”) via our Services. For example, our Services allows you to create an account and login to the Services using your Facebook account credentials through Facebook Connect. If you create a user account by logging into the SNP via the Services, you are using the personal information you have already provided to the SNP (such as your “real” name, e-mail address, age and other information you make available via the SNP) to create your account on our Services. Accordingly, if you use Facebook Connect to join the Services, you are allowing us to access the personal information in your Facebook account pursuant to Facebook’s terms and conditions governing your use of the Services via Facebook. The information we receive from an SNP may depend on the privacy settings you have with the SNP, so please check the SNP’s privacy and data practices.

We also use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”).  You can find out more information about how Google collects and processes the data here: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
