PINPAY Web Use Privacy Policy
PINPAY and ACAP Security Inc. (ACAP) respect
your right to the privacy of the personal information
you provide us. The following Privacy Statement
is intended to explain how your personal information
will be treated as you make use of our site. If
you have questions about this statement or about
how your personal information is being used, contact
us at adminteam@pinpay.net. Because this Statement
may change from time to time, we encourage you
to revisit this page often for the most current
disclosure of our practices.
What is “Personal
Information”?
Personal information includes your name, mailing
and e-mail addresses, social security numbers, birth
dates, and other types of data unique to you, which
you may have voluntarily provided to us, usually
when called upon to register for a particular service
or membership, to submit an inquiry, or to pay for
a product or service. It also includes information
that may be collected indirectly such as from “cookies”
transferred to your computer for later retrieval
to track your personal preferences, click-through
activity and any other personal information previously
provided.
Who is collecting this
information?
When you are at our site, information is being collected
by PINPAY. The PINPAY site contains links to other
websites. PINPAY is not responsible for the privacy
practices or content of such other websites. For
other sites, you should investigate the site to
which you have linked for its privacy policy.
How is the information collected?
Information can be collected in many ways one
is by use of cookies. A “cookie” is
a small amount of data sent from a Web server
to your browser and stored on your computer’s
hard drive. PINPAY may offer cookies to users
who wish to become registered members so they
do not have to re-enter their user names and passwords
each time they access the password-protected areas
of the PINPAY site. In addition, they may be used
to identify unique browsers that visit the PINPAY
site and to track usage throughout the site. If
you do not wish to have a cookie for PINPAY’s
use located on your hard drive, you may either
change the settings on your Internet browser (i.e.
Internet Explorer or Netscape) to refuse the cookie,
or if you wish to remove one previously accepted,
locate the cookie you wish to remove by locating
your cookies folder within the systems directory
of your personal computer and delete that particular
cookie. For more information, reference should
be made to the user’s manual for your particular
operating system. See also the section “What
choices do I have about sharing personal information,”
below. However, companies advertising on our site
have the ability to assign their own cookies.
This is a process over which PINPAY has no control.
You can set your browser to notify you when you
receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide
whether to accept it.
When you register for PINPAY’s e-mail service
or other “provide information” features
we collect subscribers’ e-mail addresses
to distribute alerts, information and/or newsletters.
We do not share this information with others.
We conduct voluntary surveys of users of the site
to obtain aggregate demographic information. Such
information is compiled and used, in the aggregate,
for internal market development purposes or with
advertisers and other third parties. No personal
information is exchanged with outside parties that
could be identified with individual users.
How is this information
being used?
PINPAY will not use or disclose personal identifying
information without your consent except (i) as
described in this Privacy Statement, or (ii) as
required by law, court order, or as requested
by other governmental or law enforcement authority.
This policy does not protect information you post
to any on-line bulletin board, chat room, newsgroup
or other public forum within our website. We do
not sell to others any information that is identifiable
to you individually.
Information is used internally to i) customize
user services, such as establishing access to
your account portfolio, ii) to record usage to
be used in reports to data providers, iii) to
measure customer preferences and enhance site
performance.
We are required to share selected information
for statutory or regulatory requirements of the
Internal Revenue Service and other regulatory
and government entities.
PINPAY may co-sponsor a sweepstakes, contest or
other event requiring the collection, processing
and storage of individual contact and demographic
information (e.g., your age and state of residence).
PINPAY may also co-sponsor these events along with
other companies, in which case the user’s
individual contact and demographic information is
likely to be shared with other participating sponsors.
A registrant’s personal contact and demographic
information will not be released to a third-party
or non-participating organizations without the user’s
consent, and PINPAY will request that co-sponsors
of such events uphold the privacy of the registrants’
information.
What choices do I have
about sharing personal information?
PINPAY does not collect personally identifying
information about you except when you are told
we are doing so, at the time it is being requested
and you elect to provide it. If you are requested
to provide personal information but wish not to
do so, do not provide the information.
If you would like to unsubscribe from a PINPAY alert,
information or newsletter, please follow the instructions
at the bottom of the newsletter, or you can send
an e-mail requesting removal to adminteam@pinpay.net
Never share your passwords or access key with
others. Your account information is protected
at PINPAY by placing it on a secure portion of
our website. That’s why you have to enter
a unique user name and password each time you
want to access your account information.
Our commitment to children’s privacy
The PINPAY website is designed to be viewed by the
general public. We do not use materials considered
to be indecent, profane, morally offensive, or pornographic.
No portion of our website is structured to attract
anyone under age 13.
Who can I contact if I
have any additional questions?
If you have any further questions or concerns about
PINPAY’s privacy policies and use of personal
information, please send them to adminteam@pinpay.net
This privacy policy is as of 2006
