| With the increasing amount of personal information
being exchanged over the Internet, it is critical that consumers know and
understand what is happening with this information either by choice, or by
the use of other techniques.
The nature of the information that we as a company ask
about is financial and confidential by nature, and we feel that you need
to and understand our policy regarding your personal information.
To complete our online application, you will need to answer specific
questions with respect to your financial background.
This includes your name, address, business name, business location,
business mailing address, type of business, business hours, tax ID number,
contact name, business hours, type of ownership, information in regard to
percentage of ownership, principle or principles names, birth dates,
social security numbers, drivers license number, home phone numbers,
residence address, length of residence, name of close relatives and their
addresses, relatives phone numbers, bank reference information, account
numbers, contact information, projected monthly volume, web site URL
and questions regarding past merchant processing history.
The purpose of the collection of this information is to expedite your
application for a merchant account. The information transmitted to us is
identical to the field requirements on the merchant application and will
be transcribed onto the original bank agreements and sent to you for
signatures and additional documentation. This minimizes the need for our
clients to fill out any additional paperwork. As an alternative, you
may phone us and we will send the paperwork to you or we will walk you
through the application process.
We have no intention in the future to provide, sell or exchange your
personal information to any person or company. The information that you
provide is directly transmitted to us and used solely for the purpose of
expediting your online application. To prevent unauthorized access
and ensure the correct use of information, we have put into place
appropriate procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect
online.
All merchant copies of the agreements are returned to you at the
completion of the application process. The only information
maintained by our office is your name, address phone number and email
address unless you specify otherwise. All of our clients have the
right and the ability to access the information that is collected online
and maintained as part of their file by calling our office and properly
providing the proper security information needed for access.
