Privacy Shield Statement
Upland Software has self-certified and complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework, as set forth by the US Department of Commerce, regarding the collection, use, and retention of Personal Information transferred from the European Union (“EU”) and Switzerland to the United States (“U.S.”) in reliance on Privacy Shield. Upland has certified that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles with respect to such data.
Upland recognizes that both Privacy Shields are no longer recognized as a valid transfer mechanism for the transfer of data from the EU and Switzerland to the U.S. However, Upland retains it certification to emphasize its commitment to providing safeguards of Personal Information transferred from the EU. Notwithstanding, Upland relies on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, adopted pursuant to the European Commission’s implementing decision EU 2021/915 of 4 June 2021, for the valid transfer of Personal Data outside of the EU and Switzerland to third countries that have not received an adequacy decision by the European Commission.
Please refer to Upland’s Privacy Policy for details regarding the types of data collected, including the purpose for which the data is collected and used and choices for limiting use and disclosure of personal data.
If there is any conflict between the policies in this privacy policy and data subject rights under the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Privacy Shield Framework, and to view our certification, please visit PrivacyShield.Gov.
Where Personal Information is transferred, under the Privacy Shield Framework, Upland is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the US Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”).
In accordance with the Privacy Shield Principles, individuals in the EU and Switzerland have the right to access, amend, or delete their Personal Information transferred to the United States. To access or make changes to your Personal Information or to request removal of your Personal Information, please contact us at privacy@uplandsoftware.com.
We will provide an individual opt-out choice, or opt-in for sensitive data, before we share your data with third parties other than our agents, or before we use it for a purpose other than which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized. To request to limit the use and disclosure of your Personal Information, please submit a written request to privacy@uplandsoftware.com.
Upland uses third-party sub-processors to provide Service to our Customers. Upland remains responsible and liable under the Privacy Shield Principles for our third-party sub-processors, unless Upland proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
Upland is committed to resolve complaints in accordance with the Privacy Shield Framework. Individuals in the EU and Switzerland may submit a complaint by contacting us at privacy@uplandsoftware.com.
Upland has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the Privacy Shield Principles to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, operated by the Council of Better Business Bureaus. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit the BBB EU PRIVACY SHIELD for more information and to file a complaint. This service is provided free of charge to you.
If your complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration. Additional information is available here for EU residents and here for Swiss residents.
European Economic Area (EEA): Privacy Rights Under GDPR
If you are an individual in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), collection, processing and transfer of your Personal Information is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
We collect and process Personal Information about you only where we have a legal basis for doing so under applicable data protection law. Legal basis, in accordance with GDPR is defined as one or more of the following criteria:
- You have given consent to the processing of your Personal Information for one or more specific purposes
- Processing is necessary to satisfy a contract to which you are a party
- We need to process your Personal Information to comply with a legal obligation
- Processing of your Personal Information is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person
- Processing of your Personal Information is necessary to perform a task in the public interest or to carry out some official function
- We have a legitimate interest to process your Personal Information
The GDPR further affords individuals with the EEA specific rights. You have the right to:
- Access the Personal Information we process about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete Personal Information about you
- Delete Personal Information about you
- Restrict the processing of some or all of your Personal Information on a temporary or permanent basis
- Transfer your Personal Information to you or a third-party when we processed the data based on your consent or contract which is based on automated processing

California: Privacy Rights Under CCPA
The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) places limitations on businesses which collect or sell the Personal Information of California consumers and provides these consumers rights with respect to their Personal Information. Those rights include:
- The right to know what Personal Information is collected, used, shared or sold
- The right to delete Personal Information held by a business or service provider
- The right to opt-out of sale of Personal Information
- The right to non-discrimination when exercising your privacy rights under CCPA
Effective January 1, 2023, the CCPA, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, will afford California consumers the above rights in addition to:
- The right to correct inaccurate Personal Information maintained by the business
- The right to limit use and disclosure of sensitive Personal Information
The CCPA distinguishes between the organization collecting consumer Personal Information for its own purposes (Controller) and an organization designated by the Controller to process that Personal Information (Processor). The CCPA imposes obligations only upon “businesses” and not upon “service providers”. CCPA defines a “business” and a “service ‘provider”, which are similar to Controller and Processor, as defined in this Privacy Notice.
Upland has prepared an Addendum to its Services Agreement which sets forth the additional contractual provisions Upland will adhere to in order to meet the definition of a “service provider” under the CCPA, and to ensure our Customers’ compliance.
Please read Upland’s Privacy Notice in its entirety for details on the categories of Personal Information collected, as well as our collection, use and disclosure practices.
You may request a copy of Personal Information we collected or disclosed within the past 12 months. You may also request deletion of your Personal Information. Please submit your request to privacy@uplandsoftware.com.
Privacy Notice Changes
We may periodically update this Privacy Notice. When we do, we will also revise the “effective date” of the Privacy Notice. If we make any material changes, additional notification will be provided, such as a statement on the Site, posting a notice in the Upland Community portal, or providing email notification.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Notice periodically to stay informed of our privacy practices.
