Privacy policy

Effective September 23, 2024

We appreciate your preference for making informed choices regarding the gathering and use of information about you. This notice (our “Privacy Policy”) informs you of the gathering of information about you through this website and the use and disclosure of that information.

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include information where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).

What type of data do we obtain?

The types of personal data we could possibly obtain have been grouped in the list below. The listing here does not mean that we have or will gather this type of information about you.

  • Audio, thermal, olfactory, or similar information;
  • Electronic information except to the extent identified in some category above; or
  • Visual information except to the extent that it is Biometric Data.

From whom do we obtain information?

We are a Service Provider that processes Client Data (data collected and controlled by our Clients and their Agents, if any, hereinafter, "Clients") subject to our Clients' instructions and generally have no direct relationship with the individuals to whom our Clients Data may pertain. Our traditional Clients are residential real estate property owners and property managers. Our obligations with respect to Client Data are governed by this Privacy Policy, our Client Agreements, Clients' own lease and vendor agreements, and Clients' Privacy Policies and website Terms of Use, as applicable. If you have any questions about the practices of a Client who directs our service to process your personal information, please contact that Client directly.

We obtain information from four main sources.

When any of the four sources interact with our website, email servers, fax machines, or telephone systems, we automatically collect Technical and Usage Data. Our website gathers data about equipment, browsing actions, and patterns by using cookies, server logs, and other similar technologies. On our email servers, we gather data about who transmitted the email to us and how. On our fax machines and telephone systems, we gather data, including the telephone number transmitted to us.

We gather some data from Visitors, meaning people who:

  • use our public website without logging in to an account for a Customer or an Account, beginning the process to register as a Customer or an Account, explicitly identifying as a Customer or an Account; or
  • send us an email, call one of our telephone numbers, or send us mail or fax with content that does not cause us to associate the information with a Customer, Account, or Furnisher.

We obtain data from Visitors' activities such as subscribing to our publications, requesting marketing materials be sent to them, entering a competition, promotion, or survey, or giving us feedback.

We obtain some data from Customers, meaning people who:

  • log in to our website as a Customer;
  • begin the process of registering as a Customer on our website; or
  • send us an email, call one of our telephone numbers, or send us mail or fax with content that causes us to associate the information with a Customer.

Examples of Customers’ activities from which we gather data include registering to receive services, providing payment information for billing, and identifying users who can order services.

We obtain some data from Accounts, meaning people about whom we are performing services. Examples of Accounts' activities from which we obtain data include completing forms about themselves, acknowledging disclosures and notices, requesting disclosure of information in our files, and requesting a reinvestigation of that information.

We obtain some information from Furnishers, meaning people who:

  • have information about our Customers (or their representatives);
  • have information about the Accounts;
  • perform processing for our Customers; or
  • act as an intermediary to one of the above.

Examples of Furnishers' activities from which we acquire data include providing marketing leads, providing information establishing the legitimacy of prospective Customers, processing payments from Customers, verifying the information of Accounts, providing summaries of public records about Accounts, and providing credit reports about Accounts. Most of our services involve us obtaining information from Furnishers, so there are Furnisher activities that are specific to each of our services.

How do we assemble data about you through your visiting this website?

When you visit this website, the website automatically gathers Technical Data in server logs and Technical Data and Usage Data through cookies, web beacons, and other technologies.

When you visit this website, the website places one or more text files (each called a “cookie”) in the browser directory of your computer's hard drive. A cookie is a small piece of information that a website can store on your web browser and later retrieve. The typical information that cookies store includes the date and time of your visit, your registration information, and your navigational and purchase activity. Our website uses cookies to identify your computer consistently as you navigate through the website and to control what it displays to you. Most browsers allow you to decline cookies. But if you decline cookies, the website may not operate properly. Our website does not currently recognize “do not track” signals transmitted by web browsers. You are free to delete cookies after your session. Your browser should contain instructions on how to do this.

We use Google Ads. As you navigate to this website from Google Ads, the website may place advertising cookies on your computer. These advertising cookies identify your computer as one that has visited the website. When you visit another site that has an agreement with our advertising network, the other site will use the cookie to display our advertisements to you on the other site. This does not involve collecting personal data about you, such as your name, email address, postal address, or telephone number. Google makes available a number of ways to control this at https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=en. Additionally, the National Advertising Initiative makes available a tool to opt out of multiple advertising networks at http://optout.networkadvertising.org/.

We use Google Analytics to analyze the use of our own website. You can find more information about what data gets collected and used at this website: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

How do we obtain data about you through email?

When you interact with us through email, we may gather Technical and Usage Data through pixel tags and other technologies.

Do we obtain information from children?

We do not intend to collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18, and if you are under 18, you should not enter information on this website.

On whom do we acquire information?

We generally collect information on two types of individuals:

First, we gather information on Users, meaning individuals who interact with us. In the table below, the User column indicates whether we obtain information about the User as the user with whom we are interacting rather than as the Account.

Second, we assemble information on Account Holders, meaning individuals associated with the Accounts. In the table below, the Holder column indicates whether we obtain information about the Holder associated with the Account rather than the User with whom we are interacting.

When the source of data is the Account, the User and the Holder are the same person:

In that case, we indicate in the User column the types of data that we gather primarily for the purpose of interacting with the User, and we indicate in the Holder column the types of data that we obtain mainly for the purpose of using or providing it in the performance of services for our customer.

What happens if you do not provide your personal data?

Where we need to acquire personal data by law or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter with you (for example, to provide you with services). In this case, we may have to cancel a service you have with us, but we will inform you if this is the case at the time.

If we need to obtain personal data about you to provide a service to our customer and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to provide that service to our customer. If we are unable to provide that service, then our customer might not grant you whatever benefit you were seeking that caused the customer to obtain services from us.

Once we collect personal data, how do we use it?

We use personal data about you when we have one of the following lawful bases:

  • Legitimate Interest, which means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to serve you, the organization you represent, or our Customer. We consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process personal data about you for our legitimate interests. We do not use personal data about you for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or authorized to by law).
  • Contract Requirement, which means a requirement to process personal data about you for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract.
  • Legal Requirement, which means a requirement to process and retain personal data about you for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are or might be subject to.
  • Legal Authority, which means a law that gives us authority to process and retain personal data about you.
  • Consent, which means your express, written consent to process personal data about you.

Note that we may process personal data for more than one lawful basis depending on the specific purpose for which we are using personal data about you.

We have set out below, in table format, a description of the ways we plan to use personal data and which legal bases we rely on to do so. We have also identified our legitimate interests are where appropriate.

What happens if there is a change in the purpose?

Certain laws require us to do something if the purpose of our use changes. (For example, it might require us to get your consent or give you notice.) This section applies only to the extent that those laws apply to you and the data.

If we want to use personal data about you for a purpose other than the purpose for which we collected it, we will consider whether that purpose is compatible with the original purpose. If the purpose is compatible, we will use the personal data for that additional purpose. If you want to get an explanation about how the additional purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us by email (at the email address shown in the contact details below). If the additional purpose is not compatible but we have a legal basis for using the personal data anyway, we will inform you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to use or retain the personal data for the additional purpose.

Please note that our software service may be used to process personal data about you without your knowledge or consent in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

How do we control using personal data for marketing purposes?

We provide you with choices regarding certain uses of personal data about you, particularly around marketing and advertising. We have established the following personal data control mechanisms:

We may use your Identity, Contact, Characteristics, Technical, Usage, and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services, and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing). You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased services from us or if you provided us with your details when you entered a competition or registered for a promotion and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

We will get your express opt-in consent before we share personal data about you with any outside organization for their marketing purposes (this does not apply to service providers who assist us with our own marketing, whom we use to send emails on our behalf and manage your opt-out preferences in response to them).

You can ask us or our service providers to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by logging into the website and checking or unchecking relevant boxes to adjust your marketing preferences or by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you. If you continue to receive marketing messages from us more than a few days after opting out, please contact us at support@payready.com. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of the services.

Do we disclose personal data to third parties?

We may share personal data about you with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table above about how we plan to use personal data about you.

  • Internal processors, meaning other companies under our common control.  We and they may disclose information to our and their employees, directors, and individuals acting as contractors. We assure that these companies, our personnel, and their personnel use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
  • External processors, meaning the categories set out below. We employ procedures to require our external processors to respect the security of personal data about you and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not grant permission for our external processors to use personal data about you for their own purposes and only grant permission for them to process personal data about you for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
  • Providers of information technology and system administration services to us.
  • Professional advisers (including lawyers, bankers, auditors, brokers, insurers, and marketing agencies) who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance, accounting, and marketing services to us.
  • Organizations and individuals who obtain information on our behalf from data sources are described below.
  • Other organizations that provide services to us or our Customers.
  • Payment processors. The privacy policies and practices of these payment processors may be different from ours. We do not control them and assume no responsibility for them. We understand that their conduct for the information we provide them is governed by law, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, or by card association rules, such as the rules of the Visa and MasterCard networks and the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council.
  • Marketing affiliates and program sponsors. If you register using a promotional code for one of our marketing affiliates or program sponsors, we may disclose information about you and your purchases (such as the name of your company and the value of your purchases each month) to the marketing affiliate or program sponsor. The privacy policies and practices of these marketing affiliates or program sponsors may be different from ours. We do not control them and assume no responsibility for them.
  • Data Sources, meaning organizations and individuals who provide us data that we use in our services. The privacy policies and practices of these information sources may be different from ours. We do not control them and assume no responsibility for them. We understand that, in most cases, their conduct for the information we provide them is governed by law, such as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act and other consumer protection laws.
  • Regulators, taxing authorities, law enforcement, and courts requiring the reporting of data in certain circumstances. We may disclose your information in the good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to comply with law or legal process, respond to claims, or protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, employees, customers, or the public.
  • Organizations to whom we may choose to sell or transfer all or part of our business or assets or with whom we may merge, consolidate, or amalgamate. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use personal data about you as set out in this Privacy Policy.
  • Customers, meaning organizations, purchasing our services.

Data Retention

The time period for which Pay Ready retains customer data depends on the purpose for which it is used. Pay Ready retains customer data for as long as an account is active or in accordance with the agreement(s) between Pay Ready and the Customer unless Pay Ready is required by law to dispose of it earlier or keep it longer.


Data Disposal

Pay Ready disposes of customer data within 30 days of a request by a current or former customer or in accordance with the Customer's agreement(s) with Pay Ready. However, Pay Ready may retain and use data necessary for the contract, such as proof of contract, in order to comply with its legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Pay Ready may also retain consumer data after customer termination as necessary to comply with applicable law.

Exceptions

Pay Ready business needs, local situations, laws, and regulations may occasionally call for an exception to our Data Retention and Disposal policy.

Biometrics Policy

As a service provider to its Clients and System Vendors, Pay Ready acquires and maintains data that may qualify as biometric identifiers or information covered under applicable law, such as fingerprint or driver’s license images, identification pictures, or voice print recordings.

Pay Ready gathers and stores such data for the purpose of completing transactions requested by platform users, maintaining evidence of prior authorization and transactions to comply with applicable law, and/or enabling consumer identification to prevent fraud and maintain security on the platform.

Pay Ready may disclose such data to third-party vendors under the agreement for the purposes above. Pay Ready does not sell biometric data.

Pay Ready retains such data in accordance with its data security safeguard practices.

Pay Ready retains such data no longer than is reasonably necessary to comply with the law, protect against fraud or security threats to the platform, or provide the services for which the biometric identifier was enrolled.

Separately, Clients and Vendors using the Pay Ready platform may retain biometric data they collected elsewhere on the platform and disclose such data from the platform according to their applicable privacy policies. Users should address questions about such use directly to those Clients or Vendors.

Do US Residents have rights regarding their personal information?

If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia, you may have the right to know or request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about you and how we have processed it.

You may also have the right to withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal information. These rights may be limited in some circumstances, and we may decline your request as permitted by applicable law.

You may have the right to obtain a list of the categories of third parties to which we have disclosed personal information (as permitted by applicable law, including California’s and Delaware’s privacy laws). Those categories are listed within this Privacy Policy.

You may have the right to obtain a list of specific third parties to which we have disclosed personal information (as permitted by applicable law, including Oregon’s privacy law).

You may have the right to opt out of the gathering of sensitive and/or personal information collected through the operation of a voice or facial recognition feature (as permitted by applicable law, including Florida’s privacy law).

You may have the right to limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information (as permitted by applicable law, including California’s privacy law).

Virginia Residents

In addition to the rights described above, you also have the right to opt-out from the processing of your personal information for the purposes of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you, which we do not do. You also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising and selling (as such terms are defined under the VCDPA). However, as noted above, Pay Ready does not participate in the selling of your personal information.

Regardless, we must inform you that If we refuse to take action on a request within a reasonable period of time after receiving your request in accordance with this section. In such an appeal, you must (1) provide sufficient information to allow us to verify that you are the person about whom the original request pertains and to identify the original request and (2) provide a description of the basis of your appeal. Please note that your appeal will be subject to your rights and obligations afforded to you under the VCDPA. We will respond to your appeal within 60 days of receiving your request.

Pay Ready will honor the exercise of rights or appeals of decisions of Virginia residents requested via email at support@payready.com

California Residents

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (the "CCPA") and the California Privacy Rights Act (the "CPRA"), we are a Service Provider. As a Service Provider, we will not retain, use, or disclose personal information obtained in the course of providing services except:

  1. To process or maintain personal information on behalf of the business that provided the personal information or directed the service provider to collect the personal information in compliance with the written contract for services required by the CCPA;
  2. To retain and employ another service provider as a subcontractor, where the subcontractor meets the requirements for a service provider under the CCPA and these regulations;
  3. For internal use to build or improve the quality of its services, provided that the use does not include building or modifying household or consumer profiles to use in providing services to another business or correcting or augmenting data acquired from another source;
  4. To detect data security incidents or protect against fraudulent or illegal activity; or
  5. For the purposes enumerated in Civil Code section 1798.145, subdivisions (a)(1) through (a)(4).

The following is information organized in a way that the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) and the California Privacy Rights Act (the "CPRA") require us to supply. It only applies to you if you live in California, though out of an abundance of caution, we are applying it to the entire United States. This table has the following information in it:

  • The first column identifies the type of data using the definitions above.
  • The second column says whether we sold any personal data of that type in the 12 months before we posted this Privacy Policy.
  • The third column says whether we disclose any personal data of that type for a business purpose in the 12 months before we posted this Privacy Policy. If so, we disclosed it as described in the section above.
  • The fourth column identifies whether, in the 12 months before we posted this Privacy Policy, we provided any personal data of that type in a consumer-reporting activity. California Civil Code section 1798.145(d) excludes consumer-reporting activity from the CCPA, so we have not included it in the second or third columns. (In some circumstances, section 1798.145(e), (f), or (h) may also apply as an exclusion.) We include it in the fourth column to prevent confusion about what the table means. Additionally, section 1798.140(o)(2) excludes Public-record data from the definition of “personal information.” Again, we include that row to prevent confusion about what the table means.

Additionally, California law defines the term “sell” to include any disclosure of “personal information” in exchange for anything of value. Depending on how this law is interpreted, it could include a situation in which we provide your information to another organization so that it can do something with the information for us. Because we receive the benefit of that processing, which is of value to us, any such relationship might be the sale of personal data. Therefore, we hereby notify you that we may sell personal data about you to the extent that the term “sell” is interpreted in that manner.

The CPRA expands certain definitions under the CCPA, which includes the term "Sharing", which means sharing or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer's personal information by the business to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration. Therefore, we hereby notify you that we may share personal data about you to the extent that the term "share" is interpreted in that manner.

Do we oversee the privacy of sites to which we link?

This website may provide links to third-party websites. Those third-party websites are outside of our control and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. The privacy policies and practices of these sites may be different from ours. We do not control them and assume no responsibility for them. If you have questions about how another website uses your information, consult that website's privacy statement.

Where might your information be stored, used, or disclosed?

We (and anyone to whom we disclose information) may store, access, disclose, and use information in jurisdictions whose privacy laws are different and less protective than those of your home jurisdiction.

What security measures do we use?

We are committed to protecting the personal data that we receive. While we cannot guarantee the security of that data, we utilize a combination of online and offline security technologies, procedures, and organizational measures to help safeguard consumer information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

We employ Secure Socket Layer (SSL) data encryption when data is transmitted over the Internet to our website. We have installed layered firewalls and other security technologies to help prevent unauthorized access to our systems. Strong password protection protocols are used on our employees' computers, and employees are regularly trained on our security and privacy policies. The servers used to store consumer information are maintained in a secure physical environment with appropriate physical security measures.

What are your rights?

If you would like to obtain disclosure of or dispute information that we have included, have provided for inclusion, might later include, or might later provide for inclusion in a consumer report, please contact us as set out in the contact details below.

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to personal data about you. Please see below for specific rights that may apply to your location. If you wish to exercise any of those rights, please contact us as set out in the contact details below.

Please note that we may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping and risk management purposes, including but not limited to compliance with laws relating to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing and/or to complete any transactions.

What rights do you have in California?

California Consumer Privacy Act Notice

The California Consumer Privacy Act (the "CCPA") and the California Privacy Rights Act (the "CCPRA") provide you certain rights if you are a California resident. However, the CCPA and CPRA also have exceptions. Generally, our business falls within those exceptions, and the CCPA and CCPRA do not apply. But if you want disclosure or correction of information that we hold about you within these parts of our business, you can still request a disclosure or reinvestigation from us. Information about how to do so is available by contacting us as set out in the contact details below.

You have the following rights if you are a California resident:

  • You have the right to request us to disclose information that we have collected about you, including the general categories of information, the categories of sources from which we collected the information, the purpose for collecting or selling that information, the categories of third parties with whom we share the information, and the specific pieces of information we have collected.
  • If we sell or share personal information or disclose it for a business purpose, you also have the right to request the categories of third parties to whom we sold your information or disclosed your information for a business purpose (by category of personal information in each case).
  • You have the right to opt out of certain uses and disclosure of sensitive personal information.
  • You have the right to request to opt-out of our sale of personal data about you.

Personal Information Disclosure: United States or Overseas

This is a disclosure under California law, applicable only to the extent that the law applies.

Our services are controlled and operated by us from the United States and are not intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country, or territory other than that of the United States. Your personal information may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage service providers, and by using or accepting our services, you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, or security authorities in other countries may be entitled to access your personal information.

Additionally, we may use contractors located outside the United States to perform functions that our own employees also perform, such as public records research, employment, education, license verification, and customer service.
