Ignyto provides services to businesses of all sizes. Ignyto cares about the security and privacy of the personal data that is entrusted to us.

This policy describes the Personal Data that we collect, how we use and share it, your rights and choices, and how you can contact us about our privacy practices.

Ignyto (“Ignyto”, “we”, “our” or “us”) provides its services globally and the Ignyto entity responsible for the collection and use of personal data under this Privacy Policy differs depending on your country.

We may collect and use personal data when we do business with you or when you do business with those that use our services. Some of our services may be accessed directly by you, including through our websites that reference this policy (e.g. Ignyto.com) (collectively “Sites”). Many of our services are provided to others in connection with their own business and activities, and you may engage with Ignyto services as part of another’s service, such as when you make a payment to a merchant and we provide the payment processing services to that merchant through Ignyto (collectively, we refer to Sites and direct and indirect services as “Services”). This policy applies to Ignyto’s own Services. Websites, products and services of third-parties and some affiliates of Ignyto are subject to their own separate privacy policies.

This Privacy Policy includes important information about your Personal Data and we encourage you to read it carefully. You can also use these links to jump to a specific section.

2. Personal Data We Collect

a. Personal Data that we collect about you
Personal Data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual, and can include information about how you engage with our Services (e.g. device information, IP Address). In many cases, the Personal Data that you provide directly to us through our Services will be apparent from the context in which you provide the data:

When you register for a Ignyto account on our Site we collect your full name, email address, and account log-in credentials.
When you fill-in our online form to contact our sales team, we ask for your name, contact information, country, and other information about your interest in our Services.
When you authorize us to store information about you in connection with services, we collect your name and contact information.

When you respond to Ignyto emails or surveys, we collect your email address, name 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 Ignyto, as well as other information you may provide during the call. If you are a Ignyto Customer, when you contact us, we may collect additional information in order to verify your identity.

If you are a Ignyto customer, you will provide your contact details, such as name, postal address, telephone number, and email address. As part of your business relationship with us, we may also collect financial and personal information about you, such as your date of birth and government identifiers associated with you and your organization (such as your social security number, tax number, or Employer Identification Number). You may also choose to provide bank account information.

If you are a Customer, when you make payments to, or transact with a User through Ignyto’s Services or a Ignyto provided device, we will receive your transaction information. If you are transacting directly with Ignyto, we receive the information directly from you. If you are transacting with a User, depending on how they integrated our Services, we may receive this information directly from you, from the Ignyto User or third parties. Different services methods may require the collection of different categories of information. The services information that we collect will depend upon the services that you choose to use from the list of available services that are offered to you at the time of check-out. We may also receive your name, email, billing or shipping address and in some cases, your transaction history to authenticate you.
In connection with fraud monitoring, prevention, detection, and compliance activities for Ignyto and its Users, we receive identity related from the following sources:

From Customers (including through their devices (e.g. IP Addresses)) related to Customers.
From Users about themselves and their Customers, including as collected through our Services.
From our business partners, financial service providers, identity verification services, and publicly available sources.
This Personal Data (e.g., name, address, phone number, country) helps us to confirm identities and prevent fraud. We may also use technology to assess the fraud risk associated with an attempted transaction by a Customer with a Ignyto 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 in connection with trade shows or other events.

When you visit our Sites, we (and our service providers) may use Personal Data collected from you and your device to target advertisements for Ignyto Services to you on our Sites and other sites you visit (“interest-based advertising”), where allowed by applicable law, including any consent requirements. For example, when you visit our Site, we will use cookies to identify your device and direct ads for our Services to you. 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. At present, there is no industry standard for recognizing Do Not Track browser signals, so we do not respond to them.

We make reasonable efforts to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk associated with the processing of Personal Data.

Your Personal Data is only accessed by 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 (e.g., 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 or our Users (as applicable). Even after we stop providing Services directly or indirectly to you, and even if you close your Ignyto account or complete a transaction with a Ignyto User, we keep your Personal Data in order to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. We may also keep it to assist with our fraud monitoring, detection and prevention activities. We also keep 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 services you used. In all cases where we keep data, we do so in accordance with any limitation periods and records retention obligations that are imposed by applicable law.

7. International Data Transfers

We are a global business. Personal Data may be stored and processed in any country where we do business or our service providers do business. We may transfer your Personal Data to countries other than your own country, including to the United States. These countries may have data protection rules that are different from your country. When transferring data across borders, we take measures to comply with applicable data protection laws related to such transfer. Officials (such as law enforcement or security authorities) in those other countries may be entitled to access your Personal Data.

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the UK or Switzerland, we comply with applicable laws to provide an adequate level of data protection for the transfer of your Personal Data to the US. For more information, please see Ignyto Privacy Center. Where applicable law requires a data transfer legal mechanism, we use one or more of the following: EU Standard Contractual Clauses with a data recipient outside the EEA or the UK, verification that the recipient has implemented Binding Corporate Rules, or other legal method available to us under applicable law.

While Ignyto Ltd remains self-certified under the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield, it is not currently relying on these frameworks for the transfer of personal data to the U.S.
