This document (the “Privacy Policy” or “Policy”) sets forth RapidCents’s privacy practices and the possible uses of the information that it gathers via your use of RapidCents.com, and any RapidCents web application(s) or mobile application(s) that refer to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”).

The Services are offered as a technology to allow online business and organizations take online payments.

INFORMATION COLLECTED.

When you use any of the Services, we may collect information as disclosed below.

Personal Information.

We may collect personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) from you in a variety of ways including, but not limited to, when you use, navigate, and/or complete forms on the Service as well as in connection with other activities, services, features, or resources we make available. Personal Information may include, without limitation, first and last name, email address, postal address, telephone number, IP address, and Social Security Number. You may also be asked to provide additional information to confirm your identity for password establishment, re-setting, and other purposes.

If you are a Merchant and represent an organization, we may also collect your organization’s name, and federal taxpayer identification number and other legal business verification documents.

Usage Information.

When you use the Service, we may collect additional information from you that may not, by itself, reasonably identify you as the source (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, without limitation, information regarding your computer, the type of internet browser you are using, the location from which you are visiting the Service, the type of computer operating system you are using to access the Service, the domain name of the website from which you linked to the Service, the internet service provider utilized, or the areas of the Service you visited and the actions you performed on the Service. We will take reasonable measures to ensure that the Usage Information we collect is not personally identifiable and may not later be easily used to identify you as otherwise required by applicable law.

Financial Information.

When Consumers make Transactions via the Services, Consumers are required to provide payment card information – including, but not limited to credit card number, expiration date, and billing address. We transmit that information to a payment processor. The payment processor is a third-party company, external to us. The web pages of the Service where the information is collected, as well as all transmissions to the third-party processor, are encrypted with an SSL certificate. We do not store complete payment information on our Site, but may store reference information such as the last four digits of a credit card number and/or the expiration date. When using a credit card for Transactions, information you submit through the payment processor is outside the scope of this Privacy Policy. Any Transactions made to a Merchant via RapidCents and the Services shall be subject to RapidCents’s payment facilitator or payment processor’s rules, available at:

Except as otherwise provided herein, RapidCents does not share Personal Information with any third-party advertisers. However, RapidCents may share Aggregated Data with third-party advertisers, but this aggregated anonymous information cannot be matched with you personally unless you voluntarily share your Personal Information with the third-party advertisers.
