Thank you for visiting World Payment Services, Inc. doing business as World Payment Services™. This Privacy Policy has been designed to inform you about our data collection and how we use your personal information.

 

We obtain personal information that is needed to provide you with our goods and services. When World Payment Services collects information directly from you, we obtain this personal information in order to provide you with our goods or services, to provide customer service, and to fulfill any legal or regulatory requirements. When we obtain information about merchants from third parties, we use sources that we believe are reputable. 

​

The only personal information we collect is information you provide us. This information may include, for example, your name, mailing address, e-mail address and telephone number. If you supply us with personal data and request information from us, we will contact you to provide you with the information you requested. We may also contact you to follow up on your job opportunity inquiries, or we may send you other information about World Payment Services and its products or services that we believe you would find interesting or helpful. 

​

We are committed to protecting the confidentiality of your personal information. World Payment Services' policies limit access to the personal information we collect to employees and business relationships who need the information to fulfill their business responsibilities. We require our employees to adhere to our Privacy Policy. Employees who violate the Privacy Policy are subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. 

​

For purposes of credit reporting, World Payment Services may share information about you with third parties. We also will disclose information in response to a request issued by a court, government agency, or regulatory authority. 

​

We will inform you about the general uses of the information we collect about you. When we have a direct customer relationship with you, we will strive to make information available to you about the general uses of the information we collect. This information is made available through privacy notices on our Web sites, in other formats that are publicly available or through other means specified by applicable state and federal laws. 

​

We strive to give you choices about how your information will be used. When we obtain personal information as part of our direct relationship with you, we will not share this information with nonaffiliated third parties, except in the following circumstances:

​

• In accordance with World Payment Services Privacy Policy 

• To comply with federal, state and local laws, including credit reporting laws

• To combat fraud

• To offer products and services that World Payment Services believes may be of interest to you

 

Since your needs may change and new products and services are continually developed in the credit card processing industry, we may contact you to determine if we can provide you with additional services. Most of our customers appreciate hearing about our new products and services and prefer that we continue to contact them. If you would prefer not to be contacted we will make information available to you about how you may request to have your name removed from any World Payment Services owned marketing lists. You may opt out of any mailings by sending an e-mail to us.

​

We use appropriate security safeguards. At World Payment Services, security is important. We employ appropriate measures, including advanced technology, to protect personal information collected against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These measures may include, among others, encryption, physical access security and other appropriate technologies. World Payment Services continually reviews and enhances its security systems as necessary.

If you decide to close your merchant account or become an inactive customer, or if we close or suspend your account, our Privacy Policy, as it may exist from time to time, will continue to apply. We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time, and we will inform you of changes as required by law.
