Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy is meant to help you understand how Fueled collects, uses, and shares Customer Data to operate, improve, develop, and protect Fueled’s Services. This Privacy Policy applies to Customer Data processed as a result of access to or use by our developer customers, (“Developers”, “you”, or “your”) of the Fueled websites (“Website”), dashboard (“Dashboard”), our Platform ( “Platform”), related tools, and other products or services (collectively, the “Services”) provided by Fueled, Inc. (“Fueled”, “we”, “us”, or “our”).

Introduction

At Fueled, we value customer trust above all else. As such, we strive to help our customers, our customers’ end-users, and our Website visitors maintain control of their information. This Privacy Policy explains our information practices, the kinds of information we may collect, how we intend to use and share that information, and how you can exercise choices you may have in Customer Data.
Fueled processes three broad categories of personal information (known collectively as “Customer Data”):
  • As a developer customer (or potential developer customer) of Fueled, you will need to provide us information to create an account and use the Services – we refer to this as “Customer Account Data.”
  • As a developer customer, you may provide us with personal information of your end-users who use or interact with Your application that you’ve built on Fueled’s Platform or integrated with Fueled’s Services – we refer to this information as“Customer End-User Data.”
Fueled distinguishes between these categories of Customer Data because the direct relationship we have with you, our customer, is different than the indirect relationship we have with your end-users. If you are located in the European Economic Area, Fueled is the “controller” of your Customer Account Data and a “processor” of Customer End-User Data.

  • When you contact Fueled’s Sales Team or Customer Support Team; and
  • When you sign up for a Fueled’s account and use our products and Services.

  • Perform our contract with you;

    • understand who our customers and potential customers are and their interests in Fueled’s products and Services,
    • manage our relationship with you and other customers
    • provide you with marketing materials,
