Our Commitment To Privacy
North American Bancard is committed to respecting
and protecting the privacy of our guests and customers.
The following policies apply to our web site visitors,
our newsletter subscribers, and customers who order
from our online order form. We pledge to guard your
personal information in accordance with our privacy
policy and respect the confidentiality of all visitor
or subscriber data submitted to North American Bancard.
To better protect your privacy we
provide this notice explaining our online information
practices and the choices you can make about the way
your information is collected and used. To make this
notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage
and at every point where personally identifiable information
may be requested.
The Information We Collect:
This notice applies to all information
collected or submitted on the North American Bancard web site.
On some pages, you can order services, make requests,
and register to receive materials. The types of information
collected at these pages are:
Customer Information: (name, address,
email address, phone number, fax number, credit/debit
card information.)
Corporate Information: (business name,
business address)
The Way We Use Information:
We use the information you provide
about yourself to underwrite your merchant account.
We do not share this information with outside parties
except to the extent necessary to complete that merchant
account setup.
We use return email addresses to answer
the email we receive. Such addresses are not used for
any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.
You can register with our web site if you would like
to receive our newsletter as well as updates on our
new products and services. Information you submit on
our web site will not be used for this purpose unless
you fill out the registration form.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to
better design our web site and to share with advertisers.
For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number
of individuals visited a certain area on our web site,
or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled
out our registration form, but we would not disclose
anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
Finally, we never use or share the
personally identifiable information provided to us online
in ways unrelated to the ones described above without
also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise
prohibit such unrelated uses.
Our Commitment To Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain
data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information,
we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic,
and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
We use Secure Socket Layering (SSL)
to encrypt your personal information, including your
credit card number, before it travels over the Internet.
(SSL) technology is the industry standard for secure
online transactions. All computer data which contain
our customers information will be stored in protected
areas accessible only to necessary personnel.
Choice / Opt-Out
Our site provides users the opportunity
to opt-out of receiving e-mail marketing communications
from us at the point where we request information about
the visitor.
Use of Cookies
This site uses cookies, both "permanent

file stored by your web browser on your computer’s
hard drive. Cookies allow us to recognize who you are
when you arrive at our site by associating the identification
numbers in the cookie with other information you as
a customer have provided us. That customer information
is stored on our secured database. Cookies allow us
to understand how you clicked to our site and what pages
you click on during your visit to our site.
How You Can Access Or Correct
Your Information
You can access all your personally
identifiable information that we collect online and
maintain by logging in to your client area. We use this
procedure to better safeguard your information.
You can correct factual errors in
your personally identifiable information by sending
us a request that credibly shows error.
To protect your privacy and security,
we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity
before granting access or making corrections.
Changes in Privacy Policy
North American Bancard reserves the right
to change the Privacy Policy from time to time. If information
collected will be used in a new and material way, we
will notify all individuals affected by this change
by sending out an email 30 days in advance to any affected
individuals and then post a notice on our homepage advising
of the change or revised privacy notice and when it
will take effect.
