Privacy

Your Privacy is Protected

The Internet allows Payment Processing Inc (PPI). to interact with you across time and space to offer information and services. At the same time, it also brings legitimate concerns about privacy and security.

At Payment Processing Inc, we are committed to protecting the privacy of individuals and safeguarding information entrusted to us. In fact, it is one of our highest priorities.

What Information is Collected?

As a certified Internet payment service, our business involves the receipt, processing and transfer of messages, which contain payment transaction data. The purpose for collecting this information is to execute our commercial service and to provide merchants, financial institutions and third party processors with the transaction data generated by their activities.

We also collect and retain certain information, including names and email addresses, from individuals or entities who voluntarily choose to download products available through our website. This information is required in connection with the licensing arrangements associated with such downloading and use of our products.

When you visit PPI's websites, information is not collected that could identify you personally unless you choose to provide it voluntarily. You are welcome to browse these websites at any time anonymously and privately without revealing any personal or financial information about yourself.

Security

At Payment Processing Inc, all the information you provide to us is securely maintained and is kept strictly confidential.

How We Safeguard Your Information

We use up to date technologies and maintain current security standards to ensure that personal and transaction information is protected against unauthorized access, disclosure, inappropriate alteration or misuse. All safety and security measures are also appropriate to the sensitivity level of your information.

Electronic files are kept in a highly secured physical environment with restricted access. Paper-based files are also kept in secure locations with restricted access.

Online Security

We diligently manage our infrastructure with leading edge security mechanisms. Our security practices are reviewed on a regular basis and we are proactive in deploying technologies to ensure that the confidentiality and privacy of your information is not compromised.

Payment Processing Inc. websites use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and 128 bit encryption technologies to enhance security when you visit the secured areas of these sites. SSL is the industry standard protocol for protecting and maintaining the security of message transmissions over the Internet.

To safeguard against unauthorized access to your accounts, you are required to "sign-on" using an encrypted password to certain secured areas of Payment Processing Inc. websites. If you are unable to provide the correct password, you will not be able to access these sections.

To ensure your connection to the protected areas of Payment Processing Inc. websites is secure, look for either a 'closed lock' or an 'unbroken key' icon located at the bottom right hand side of your browser's task bar. You may also check the Address bar to determine if SSL (Secure Socket Layer) is active by looking at the beginning of the address. If it starts with "https" rather than the standard "http", then SSL is operating.

Anonymous/Non-Personal Information

At Payment Processing Inc, we collect anonymous/non-personal information. Anonymous/non-personal information is information that cannot be associated with or traced back to a specific individual or business entity. For example, our web servers collect some anonymous/non-personal information automatically by web servers when you visit our websites. Gathered electronically, this information may include the pages you visited, the type of web browser you are using, the level of encryption your browser supports and your Internet Protocol address. The anonymous/non-personal information collected may be used for research and analytical purposes. For example, we are able to determine how many times our online privacy policy has been visited but we do not know any specific information about those visitors.

To help us better understand our markets, we may also gather information for analytical purposes by conducting anonymous customer surveys and by extracting demographic information from existing files.
