👨🏻‍💻 1. Information we Collect

a. Personal Data that we Collect About You

Personal Data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual. The Personal Data that you provide directly to us through our Sites and Services will be apparent from the context in which you provide the data. In particular:

• When you register for a Nomod account we collect your full name, email address, and account log-in credentials.
• When you contact our team via our online link, we collect your name, email address, and anything else you tell us about your business, transactions and needs in the body of your email or responses.
• When you respond to Nomod emails or surveys we collect your name, email address, and any other information you choose to include in the body of your email or responses.
• If you contact us by phone, we will collect the phone number you use to call Nomod. If you contact us by phone as a Nomod User, we may collect additional information in order to verify your identity.

The information that we collect will include payment method information (such as credit or debit card number, CVC code and expiration date, or bank account information), purchase amount, date of purchase, and payment method. Different payment methods may require the collection of different categories of information. The Nomod User will determine the payment methods that it enables you to use, and the payment method information that we collect will depend upon the payment method that you choose to use from the list of available payment methods that are offered to you by the Nomod User. When you make a transaction, we may also receive your full name, email address, phone number, billing or shipping address and in some cases your transaction history to authenticate you.

Our fraud monitoring, detection and prevention services may collect Personal Data about you and use technology to help us assess the risk associated with an attempted transaction by you with a Nomod User.

You may also choose to submit information to us via other methods, including: (i) in response to marketing or other communications, (ii) through social media or online forums, (iii) through participation in an offer, program or promotion, (iv) in connection with an actual or potential business relationship with us, or (v) by giving us your business card or contact details at trade shows or other events.

For example, we may be required to record and verify a User's identity for the purpose of compliance with legislation intended to prevent money laundering and financial crimes. These obligations are imposed on us by the operation of law, industry standards, and by our financial partners, and may require us to report our compliance to third parties, and to submit to third party verification audits.

iii. Legitimate business interests

We use Personal Data of our User's Customers to process online payment transactions and authenticate Customers on behalf of our Users. All such use is pursuant to the terms of our business relationships with our Users. In addition, we may offer payment-related services to Users who have requested such services, and our delivery of such related services to our Users may involve the use of Personal Data. The entity responsible for the collection and use of Customers' Personal Data in the context of payment transactions and payment-related services is the User.

If we need to use your Personal Data in other ways, we will provide specific notice at the time of collection and obtain your consent where required by applicable law.

c. Advertising

When you visit our Sites, we (and our service providers) may use Personal Data collected from you and your device to target advertisements for our Services to you on our Sites and other sites you visit ("interest-based advertising"), where allowed by applicable law.

You have choices and control over our cookies (or similar technologies) we use to advertise to you. Please see our Cookie Policy for more information.

We may create Anonymous Data records from Personal Data by excluding information (such as your name) that make the data personally identifiable to you. We use this Anonymous Data to analyse usage patterns so that we may enhance the content of our Services. We reserve the right to use Anonymous Data for any purpose and disclose Anonymous Data to third parties in our sole discretion.

In order to exercise your data protection rights, you may contact Nomod as described in the Contact us section below. We take each request seriously.

If you feel that you have not received a satisfactory response from us, you may consult with the data protection authority in your country.

For your protection, we may need to verify your identity before responding to your request, such as verifying that the email address from which you send the request matches your email address that we have on file. If we no longer need to process Personal Data about you in order to provide our Services or our Sites, we will not maintain, acquire or process additional information in order to identify you for the purpose of responding to your request.

If you are a Customer of a Nomod User, please direct your requests directly to the User. For example, if you are making, or have made, a purchase from a merchant using Nomod to accept the payment, and you have a request that is related to the payment information that you provided as part of the purchase transaction, then you should address your request directly to the merchant.

🔐 5. Security and Retention

We make reasonable efforts to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk associated with the processing of Personal Data. We maintain organizational, technical and administrative measures designed to protect Personal Data within our organization against unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration or misuse. Your Personal Data is only accessible to a limited number of personnel who need access to the information to perform their duties. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your account has been compromised), please contact us immediately.

We retain your Personal Data as long as we are providing the Services to you. We retain Personal Data after we cease providing Services directly or indirectly to you, even if you close your Nomod account or complete a transaction with a Nomod User, to the extent necessary to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, and for the purpose of fraud monitoring, detection and prevention. We also retain Personal Data to comply with our tax, accounting, and financial reporting obligations, where we are required to retain the data by our contractual commitments to our financial partners, and where data retention is mandated by the payment methods that we support. Where we retain data, we do so in accordance with any limitation periods and records retention obligations that are imposed by applicable law.

We are a global business. Personal Data may be stored and processed in any country where we have operations or where we engage service providers. We may transfer Personal Data that we maintain about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the Personal Data was originally collected, including to the United States. Those countries may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country. However, we will take measures to ensure that any such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and that your Personal Data remains protected to the standards described in this Privacy Policy. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies or security authorities in those other countries may be entitled to access your Personal Data.
