The technologies we use for this automatic data collection may include:

• Cookies. A cookie is a small file placed on the hard drive of your computer. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default.  You may refuse to accept browser cookies by activating the appropriate setting on your browser. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our Website or any other websites that you visit. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will.  Please check your device settings and mobile app permissions for additional information on how to opt out. You may also wish to refer to https://www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html.  

• Web Beacons. Pages of our Website may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity). 

• Flash Cookies. Certain features of our Website may use local stored objects (or Flash cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on our Website. Flash cookies are not managed by the same browser settings as are used for browser cookies.

How We Use Your Information 

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any personal information:

• To present our Website and its contents to you.
• To provide you with information, products, or services that you request from us.

• To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it.

• To perform, monitor or improve our services.
• To carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing and collection.
• In any other way we may describe when you provide the information.
• For any other purpose with your consent.

We may use the information we have collected from you to enable us to display advertisements to our advertisers’ target audiences. Even though we do not disclose your personal information for these purposes without your consent, if you click on or otherwise interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may assume that you meet its target criteria.

Disclosure of Your Information

We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.

We may disclose personal information that we collect or you provide as described in this privacy policy:

• To our subsidiaries and affiliates. 

• To contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business and who are bound by contractual obligations to keep personal information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them.
• To a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of the Company business assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by PayrAdvisors about our Website users is among the assets transferred.
• To fulfill the purpose for which you provide it. 
• For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information.
• With your consent.

We may also disclose your personal information:

• To comply with any court order, law, or legal process, including to respond to any government or regulatory request.
• If we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of PayrAdvisors, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

How Long We Retain your Information

We keep your personal information for as long as needed or permitted for the purpose(s) described in this privacy policy and consistent with applicable law. In addition, we might keep the information for longer based on criteria such as applicable rules on statute of limitations, any legal requirements to retain your personal information in light of compliance obligations, any relevant litigation or regulatory investigations, and the duration of your use of our website and receipt of our services.

Controls for Do Not Track Features. 

Some web browsers transmit “do-not-track” (DNT) signals to websites via a DNT feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected.  At this time, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized.  Because the DNT browser-based standard signal has yet to gain widespread acceptance, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.  If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy policy.  

Rights and Choices Regarding Your Information

You may be entitled under applicable laws to request, subject to some exceptions the following: 

• That we provide you transparency about our privacy practices, 
• That we provide you copies of your personal information that we process;
• Provide portability of your information, subject to some exceptions;
• That we correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete; and
• That we delete your personal information.
• To opt out of the sale or sharing of your information.

To make a request or to express a privacy concern, you or your authorized agent should send an email with your state of residence and “Privacy Rights” in the subject line to info@payradvisors.com.  In the body of your email, please state your first name, last name, mailing address, email address and telephone number. We will use this data to locate your profile within our system. 

We will verify and respond to your request consistent with applicable law, taking into account the type and sensitivity of the personal information subject to the request. For your protection, and to protect the privacy of others, we may need to verify your identity before completing what you have asked us to do. We may need to request additional personal information from you, such as your home address, email address and government issued ID, in order to protect against fraudulent or spoofed requests. 

If an authorized agent of a consumer submits a request to know or request to delete, the agent must submit a writing to the Company that is signed and dated by the consumer. The consumer’s first name, last name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number must be included on the signed authorization. The signed authorization must expressly state that the agent is authorized to submit requests to know and requests to delete on the consumer’s behalf, receive the consumer’s personal information in response to a request to know, and to receive communications on the consumer’s behalf related to the requests. 

If you object to us using your personal information or withdraw permission for us to use your personal information, after initially giving it to us, we will respect your choice in line with applicable law. While we will do our best to limit the ability such withdrawal has on our ability to provide you services and information you requested, some of the functionality and features available on our services may change or no longer be available to you. 

Under certain U.S. state data protection laws, if we decline to take action regarding your request, you may appeal our decision.  To appeal a request you feel was denied in error, please respond to the contact information provided in the response denying your request.  We will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including an explanation of the reasons for the decisions.  If your appeal is denied, you may submit a complaint to your state attorney general.

We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.

We do not control third parties’ collection or use of your information to serve interest-based advertising. However, these third parties may provide you with ways to choose not to have your information collected or used in this way. You can opt out of receiving targeted ads from members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) on the NAI’s website.

Minors

Our Website is not intended for children under 18 years of age. No one under age 18 may provide any personal information to or on the Website. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from individuals under the age of 18.  If you are under 18, do not use or provide any information on the Website or through any of its features, or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, or any screen name or username you may use. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 18 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. You, or a parent or guardian of a minor, may ask us to remove certain content or information by emailing us at info@payradvisors.com.  

Data Security

Security is a top priority for us.  We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.  The safety and security of your information also depends on you. 

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.  Our policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the internet, and therefore beyond our control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.

State consumer privacy laws may provide their residents with additional rights regarding our use of their personal information.  Residents of certain states, such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Virginia may have additional personal information rights and choices such as the right to request access to and receive details about the personal information we maintain about them and how we have processed it, to correct inaccuracies, get a copy of, or delete their personal information. 

Categories of Personal Information We Collect.  In the past twelve (12) months, we may have collected the categories of personal information described above in the “Information We Collect About You and How We Collect It” section.  We may also collect other personal information outside these categories through instances where you interact with us in person, or by phone or mail in the context of delivering our services and responding to your inquires.

California “Shine the Light” Law.  California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year.  If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us at info@payradvisors.com.
