What VipUp does
Some online shops use VipUp to check whether someone who placed an order with them is publicly known. VipUp only uses public details that the person shares themselves, such as a public profile—never home addresses, family, contact details, photos, health, religion, politics, sexuality or ethnic origin.
The shop receives the result along with its source. At VipUp, results are deleted after the retention period set by the shop (30 days by default, at most 90).
Object directly with the shop
Write to the shop where you placed your order and let them know you object to the check (Art. 21 GDPR). The shop adds your email address to its blocklist in VipUp. VipUp then immediately deletes all checks for that address at that shop and never checks it there again.
The block applies to that email address. If you order using another address, include that one as well.
Or write to us
Not sure which shop uses VipUp, or prefer not to contact each shop individually? Email us at hello@vip-up.com from the email address you use when ordering. We will help pass your objection to the relevant shops. We are currently building a cross-shop blocklist; until it is live, objections apply per shop.
Access and erasure
The shop is the controller for the check. You can request access and erasure directly from the shop, and we assist them in fulfilling your request. Read more in our Privacy Policy.
