To learn more about the types of personal information we collect, the sources from which we collect or receive personal information, and the purposes for which we use personal information, please review the How We Collect and Use Personal information and Our Disclosure of Personal information sections of our Privacy Policy to learn more.
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
In the previous 12 months, we may have disclosed all the categories of personal information we collect with third parties for business purposes, as described in the Our Disclosure of Personal information section of our Privacy Policy. The categories of third parties to whom we sell or disclose your personal information for business purposes may include: (i) other affiliates in our family of companies; (ii) service providers and advisors; (iii) business partners; (iv) marketing and online advertising providers; (v) analytics providers; and (vi) social networks.
SALE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AND SHARING FOR TARGETED ADVERTISING
In the previous 12 months, we have sold or shared for targeted advertising purposes the following categories of personal information to third parties, subject to your settings and preferences and your Right to Opt Out:
The following personal information elements we collect may be classified as “sensitive” under certain privacy laws (“sensitive information”):
We only use or disclose sensitive information for the following purposes, where such use or disclosure is necessary and proportionate for those purposes: for performing services you have requested, detecting security incidents, fraud, and other illegal actions, ensuring the physical safety of natural persons, performing services on behalf of the business, or for short-term transient use. We only collect and process sensitive information without the purpose of inferring characteristics about a consumer, and we do not sell sensitive information or process or otherwise share sensitive personal information for targeted advertising purposes.
Deidentified Information
We may at times receive or process personal information to create deidentified information that can no longer reasonably be used to infer information about or otherwise be linked to a particular individual or household. Where we maintain deidentified information, we will maintain and use the information in deidentified form and not attempt to reidentify the information except as required or permitted by law.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your state of residency and subject to certain legal limitations and exceptions, you may be able to exercise some or all of the following rights:
Depending on your state of residency, you may also have the right to not receive retaliatory or discriminatory treatment in connection with a request to exercise the above rights. However, exercising the rights described above may result in a different price, rate, or quality level of product or service where that difference is reasonably related to the impact the right has on our relationship or is otherwise permitted by law.
How to Exercise Your Privacy Rights
We will need to verify your identity and confirm you are a resident of a state that offers the requested right(s) before processing your request. To verify your identity, we will generally either require successful login to your account or matching sufficient information you provide us with the information we maintain about you in our systems. As a result, we require requests to include name, email address, and state of residency. Although we try to limit the personal information collected in connection with a request to exercise any of the above rights, certain requests may require us to obtain additional personal information from you. In certain circumstances, we may decline a request, particularly where we are unable to verify your identity or locate your information in our systems, or where you are not a resident of one of the eligible states.
You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your Right to Opt Out. However, we may ask you to provide additional personal information so that we can properly identify you in our dataset and track compliance with your opt-out request. We will only use personal information provided in an opt-out request to review and comply with the request. If you choose not to provide this information, we may only be able to process your request to the extent we can identify you in our data systems.
If you wish to submit a privacy request on behalf of your minor child in accordance with applicable jurisdictional laws, you must provide sufficient information to allow us to reasonably verify your child is the person about whom we collected personal information and you are authorized to submit the request on your child’s behalf (i.e., you are the child’s legal guardian or authorized representative).
California-Specific Disclosures
The following disclosures only apply to residents of the State of California.
To determine the appropriate duration of the retention of personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of personal information, and if we can attain our objectives by other means, as well as our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, and other applicable obligations.
Therefore, we retain personal information for as long as the individual continues to use our services for the purposes explained in the How We Collect and Use Personal Information section in our Privacy Policy. When an individual discontinues the use of our services, we will retain their personal information for as long as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and defend claims, and for any additional purpose based on the choices they have made, such as receiving marketing communications. In particular, we will retain recordings of your conversations with us, the personal information supplied when joining our services, including complaints and any other personal information supplied during the duration of an individual’s contract with us for the services until the statutory limitation periods have expired, when this is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
Once retention of the personal information is no longer necessary for the purposes outlined above, we will either delete or deidentify the personal information or, if this is not possible (for example, because personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store the personal information and isolate it from further processing until deletion or deidentification is possible.
Notice of Financial Incentives
We may offer various programs, promotions, and other financial incentives that may result in differences in our prices or services offered to consumers. These incentives may include rebates for some clients that come in as a lead through our partners, provided such rebates are legally permitted in the applicable state.
To obtain access to certain of these programs and other offerings, we may collect and retain personal information as further described in the disclosures relating to the applicable program or offering. We have determined that the value of these programs and other offerings are reasonably related to the value of the personal information we receive and otherwise process in connection with these programs and offerings, based on our reasonable but sole determination. We estimate the value of the personal information we receive and otherwise process in connection with these programs and offerings by considering the expense we incur in collecting and processing the personal information, as well as the expenses related to facilitating the program or offering.
The material aspects of any financial incentive will be explained and described in its program terms or in the details of the incentive offer. Participating in any financial incentive program is entirely optional and participants may withdraw from the program at any time. To opt-out of the program and forgo any ongoing incentives, please follow the instructions in the program’s terms and conditions or contact us using the contact information below. Participating individuals may also opt-out of receiving marketing communications by emailing us at privacy@ipayone.com.
“Shine the Light” Disclosures
The California “Shine the Light” law gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to request information from us regarding how we share certain categories of personal information (as defined in the Shine the Light law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
