How we share personal information with other  Low Income Immigration Assistance users

To process your payments, we may share some of your personal information with the person or company that you are paying or that is paying you. Your contact information, date of sign-up, the number of payments you have received from verified  Low Income Immigration Assistance users, and whether you have verified control of a bank account are provided to other  Low Income Immigration Assistance users who you transact with through  Low Income Immigration Assistance. In addition, this and other information may also be shared with third parties when you use these third parties to access the  Low Income Immigration Assistance Services.

If you are buying goods or services and pay through  Low Income Immigration Assistance, we may also provide the seller with your shipping and confirmed credit card billing address to help complete your transaction with the seller. The seller is not allowed to use this information to market their services to you unless you have agreed to it. If an attempt to pay your seller fails, or is later invalidated, we may also provide your seller with details of the unsuccessful payment. To facilitate dispute resolutions, we may provide a buyer with the seller’s address so that goods can be returned to the seller. 

We work with third parties, including merchants, to enable them to accept or facilitate payments from or to you using  Low Income Immigration Assistance. In doing so, a third party may share information about you with us, such as your email address or mobile phone number to inform you that a payment is sent to you or when you attempt to pay that merchant or through that third party. We use this information to confirm that you are a  Low Income Immigration Assistance customer and that  Low Income Immigration Assistance as a form of payment can be enabled, or where a payment is sent to you to send you notification that you have received a payment. Also, if you request that we validate your status as a  Low Income Immigration Assistance customer with a third party, we will do so. Please note that merchants you buy from and contract with have their own privacy policies, and  Low Income Immigration Assistance may not be held responsible for their operations, including, but not limited to, their information practices. 

Regardless, we will not disclose your credit card number or bank account number to anyone you have paid or who has paid you through  Low Income Immigration Assistance or with the third parties that offer or use the  Low Income Immigration Assistance Services, except with your express permission or if we are required to do so to comply with a credit card rules, subpoena or other legal process.
