Payments Afrika is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology that gives you the most powerful and safe online experience. This Statement of Privacy applies to the Payments Afrika website and governs data collection and usage. By using the Payments Afrika website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.

Collection of your Personal Information Payments Afrika collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address, or telephone number. Payments Afrika also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP or postal code, age, gender, preferences, interests, and favorites.

There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by Payments Afrika. This information can include your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times, and referring website addresses. This information is used by Payments Afrika for the operation of the service, to maintain the quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding the use of the Payments Afrika website.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through Payments Afrika public channels, such as social media, this information may be collected and used by others.

Note:

Payments Afrika does not read any of your private online communications.

Payments Afrika encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to from Payments Afrika so that you can understand how those websites collect, use, and share your information.

Payments Afrika is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the Payments Afrika website.

Use of your Personal Information Payments Afrika collects and uses your personal information to operate the Payments Afrika website and deliver the services you have requested. Payments Afrika also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from Payments Afrika and its affiliates. Payments Afrika may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or potential new services that may be offered.

Payments Afrika does not sell, rent, or lease its customer lists to third parties. Payments Afrika may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, Payments Afrika may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email, or provide customer support. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Payments Afrika, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

Payments Afrika does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Payments Afrika keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within Payments Afrika to determine which Payments Afrika services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Payments Afrika to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Payments Afrika websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Payments Afrika or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Payments Afrika; and (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Payments Afrika or the public.

Use of Cookies The Payments Afrika website uses “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Payments Afrika pages or register with the Payments Afrika site or services, a cookie helps Payments Afrika recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Payments Afrika website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Payments Afrika features that you customized.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Payments Afrika services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information Payments Afrika secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Payments Afrika secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement Payments Afrika will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Payments Afrika encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how Payments Afrika is protecting your information.
