Data Collection and Use
Sign Up
When you sign up on nup, we ask you for a username and a password. Your username is visible to the other users. You need your password to get access or delete your account. In Android devices, you have to verify your mobile phone. This happens to make sure that you have a unique account connected to your phone number. We are not sharing your phone number with anyone and we are not using it to contact you directly.
STUDENT VERIFICATION
Nup is an application exclusively for college students. For this reason, you have to verify with your student email address or with your student ID card. We want to make sure that you are going to connect with your real fellow students in a safe space. If we find out that you are using an email address or ID card that belongs to someone else, we have the right to immediately ban your account and “black-list” the email address you used. We are not sharing your email address or your ID’s code with anyone else.
Device and App Activity Data
When you use the app, we automatically collect certain information about your device (such as the type of device, operating system, IP address, and unique identifiers). We use this information to improve the app, create new features, and keep our systems secure.
Contacts
To help you connect with your real friends, you have the option to give nup access to your address book. This makes it easy to add your friends already on nup. We never save your contacts and never send text messages to your friends.
When you add a friend on Locket, we first look up their phone number in our records to see if they already have an account.
If they do, we present you with the “Add” button. By tapping “Add” you can send a friend request to your friends inside the app. If they don’t, you can invite them by sending them a text message with a link to install the app. We do not automatically message your friends on your behalf. Instead, you have to send the message yourself. This means you're always in control of what messages get sent to your friends.
Inappropriate content
Keeping our community safe is our default. To make this happen, we are using AI services to prevent users from posting inappropriate pictures or texts before they publish them. You are not allowed to:
-

Blacklist
To keep our community safe from offensive or troll accounts, we are using a “Blacklist” feature to make sure that users who are banned from nup will not return with a new account. To get black listed, a user has to be offensive or racist to certain people or groups of people, share spam or inappropriate content, use fake credentials (such as fake school email address) or do not comply with our Terms of Use.

If you are an iPhone user, you can delete your nup account anytime.
