Privacy Policy

Swipe Wire, Inc. (“Swipe Wire,” “we,” or “us”) knows that you care how information about you is used and shared. This Privacy Policy explains what information of yours will be collected by Swipe Wire when you use swipe-wire.com and/or related Swipe Wire software and services (the “Service”), how the information will be used, and how you can control the collection, correction and/or deletion of information. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

User-Provided Information: As part of using the Service, you may be required to provide certain information in order to register and set up an account (“Registration Data”). If you correspond with us by email, we may retain the content of your email messages, your email address and our responses. If you invite a friend to try Swipe Wire, we will use that friend’s email address for the sole purpose of sending your invitation.

Cookie Information: When you visit swipe-wire.com, we may send one or more cookies – a small text file containing a string of alphanumeric characters – to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. A cookie does not collect personal information about you. Swipe Wire uses both session cookies and persistent cookies. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive after you close your browser. Persistent cookies may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser’s directions. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser. You can reset your web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some features of the Service may not function properly if the ability to accept cookies is disabled.

Log File Information: Log file information is automatically reported by your browser each time you access a web page. When you view swipe-wire.com or our related websites, our servers automatically record certain information that your web browser sends whenever you visit any website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, referring / exit pages and URLs, number of clicks, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed, and other such information.

Clear Gifs Information: When you use the Service, we may employ clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons) which are used to track the online usage patterns of our users anonymously. No personally identifiable information from your Swipe Wire account is collected using these clear gifs. We may also use clear gifs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened by recipients. The information is used to enable more accurate reporting, improve the effectiveness of our marketing, and make Swipe Wire better for our users.

How We Use Your Information

User-Provided Information: By providing Swipe Wire your email address you consent to our using the email address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. As part of our registration process we will also ask your permission to use your email address to send you other messages, such as newsletters, changes to features of the Service, or special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may change your marketing preferences by going to your account settings page.

Swipe Wire may use certain information about you without identifying you as an individual to third parties. We do this for purposes such as analyzing how the Service is used, diagnosing service or technical problems, maintaining security, and improve the Service.

We use cookies, clear gifs, and log file information to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the site; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) monitor the effectiveness of our service; (d) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors and traffic; and (e) diagnose or fix technology problems reported by our users or engineers that are associated with the IP addresses controlled by a specific web company or ISP.

How We Share Your Information

Personally Identifiable Information: Swipe Wire will not rent or sell your personally identifiable information to others and will not share it with others except as provided herein. Swipe Wire may share your personally identifiable information with third parties solely for the purpose of providing services to you. If we do this, such third parties’ use of your information will be bound by this Privacy Policy. We may store personal information in locations outside the direct control of Swipe Wire (for instance, on servers or databases co-located with hosting providers).

As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or business offerings. Customer, email, and visitor information is generally one of the transferred business assets in these types of transactions. We may also transfer such information in the course of corporate divestitures, mergers, or dissolution.

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, Swipe Wire will not disclose personal information to any third party unless required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law, comply with legal process served on us or our affiliates, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities; (b) to enforce our rights, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our site; and (c) to exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Swipe Wire, our users or others.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information: We may share non-personally identifiable information (such as anonymous usage data, referring/exit pages and URLs, platform types, number of clicks, etc.) with interested third parties to help them and us understand usage of the Service.

How We Protect Your Information

Swipe Wire makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Swipe Wire and you do so at your own risk.

Compromise of Personal Information

In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, Swipe Wire will promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Your Choices About Your Information

You may, of course, decline to submit personally identifiable information to Swipe Wire, in which case Swipe Wire will not be able to provide the Service to you.

Children’s Privacy

Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, Swipe Wire does not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to register. If you are under 13, please do not send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, or email address. No one under age 13 is allowed to provide any personal information to or on Swipe Wire. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible.

Notification Procedures

It is our policy to provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via email notice or through conspicuous posting of such notice on our Website page, as determined by Swipe Wire in its sole discretion. We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to you, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Privacy Policy.

Confidential Information

Definition. “Confidential Information” means any information disclosed by Swipe Wire or its subsidiary Swipe Wire K.K., to You either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by inspection of tangible objects (including, without limitation, research, product plans, products, services, equipment, customers, markets, software, inventions, processes, designs, drawings, hardware configuration information, marketing and finance documents, prototypes, samples, data sets, and Swipe Wire’s plant and equipment), whether or not designated as “confidential” at the time of disclosure. Confidential Information may also include information of a third party that is in Swipe Wire possession and is disclosed to You under this Agreement.

Exceptions. Confidential Information shall not, however, include any information that You can establish (i) was publicly known or made generally available without a duty of confidentiality prior to the time of Swipe Wire’s disclosure to You; (ii) becomes publicly known or made generally available without a duty of confidentiality after Swipe Wire disclosure to You through no action or inaction of You; or (iii) is in Your rightful possession without confidentiality obligations at the time of disclosure by Swipe Wire to You as shown by Your then-contemporaneous written files and records kept in the ordinary course of business.

Compelled Disclosure. If You become legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, other than pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, You will provide Swipe Wire prompt written notice of such disclosure and will assist Swipe Wire in seeking a protective order or another appropriate remedy. If Swipe Wire waives Your compliance with this Agreement or fails to obtain a protective order or other appropriate remedy, You will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed, provided that any Confidential Information so disclosed shall maintain its confidentiality protection for all purposes other than such legally compelled disclosure.

Nonuse and Nondisclosure You shall not use any Confidential Information for any purpose except to evaluate and engage in the performance of services related to the Opportunity. You shall not disclose any Confidential Information or permit any Confidential Information to be disclosed, either directly or indirectly, to any third party without Swipe Wire’s prior written consent. You shall not disclose Confidential Information or permit the disclosure of Confidential Information to its employees, except that, subject to Section 3 below, You may disclose Confidential Information to those employees or professionals and consultants such as lawyers, accountants retained by You who are required to have the information in order for You to evaluate or engage in the performance of services related to the Opportunity, provided that such employee has signed a nonuse and nondisclosure agreement in content at least as protective as the provisions hereof, prior to any disclosure of Confidential Information to such employee. You shall not reverse engineer, disassemble, or decompile any prototypes, software, samples, or other tangible objects that embody the Confidential Information. You shall not file any patent application(s) containing or based on, in whole or in part, any of Swipe Wire’s Confidential Information.

Maintenance of Confidentiality

You shall take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of the Confidential Information. Without limiting the foregoing, You shall take at least those measures it employs to protect its own most highly confidential information. You shall not make any copies of the Confidential Information unless the same are previously approved in writing by Swipe Wire. You shall reproduce Swipe Wire’s proprietary rights notices on any such authorized copies, in the same manner in which such notices were set forth in or on the original. You shall immediately notify Swipe Wire of any unauthorized use or disclosure, or suspected unauthorized use or disclosure, of Confidential Information.

No Obligation

Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate either Party to proceed with any transaction between them, and each Party reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the discussions or the engagement of services contemplated by this Agreement concerning the Opportunity. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict Swipe Wire’s use or disclosure of its own Confidential Information.

No Warranty

All confidential information is provided “as is”. Swipe Wire makes no warranties, express, implied or otherwise, regarding the accuracy, completeness or performance of any confidential information, or with respect to non-infringement or other violation of any intellectual property rights of a third party or of You.

Return of Materials

All documents and other tangible objects containing or representing Confidential Information and all copies or extracts thereof or notes derived therefrom that are in the possession or control of You shall be and remain the property of Swipe Wire and shall be promptly returned to Swipe Wire or destroyed (with proof of such destruction), each upon Swipe Wire’s request.

No License

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to grant any rights to You under any intellectual property right of Swipe Wire, nor shall this Agreement grant You any rights in or to the Confidential Information except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

Term

The obligations of You under this Agreement shall survive until the earlier of: i) two years following the date that You discontinues the performance of services related to the Opportunity; or ii) until such time as all Confidential Information disclosed hereunder qualifies as any of the exceptions to Confidential Information set forth in Section 2.B through no action or inaction of You.

Remedies

You agree that any violation or threatened violation of this Agreement will cause irreparable injury to Swipe Wire, entitling Swipe Wire to obtain injunctive relief in addition to all legal remedies without showing or proving any actual damage and without any bond required to be posted.

Your Information

Swipe Wire does not wish to receive any confidential information from You, and Swipe Wire assumes no obligation, either expressed or implied, with respect to any information disclosed by You to Swipe Wire. Any ideas, suggestions, guidance or other information disclosed by You related to the Confidential Information and any intellectual property rights relating to the foregoing shall be collectively deemed “Feedback”. You agree to grant and hereby grants to Swipe Wire a nonexclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free, worldwide license (with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses) to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, display, perform and otherwise exploit such Feedback without restriction.

General

Swipe Wire may modify this Agreement at any time. You should look at the terms regularly. If You do not agree to the modified terms for the Platform, You should discontinue Your use of that Service.

This Agreement controls the relationship between Swipe Wire and You. It does not create any third party beneficiary rights.

If You do not comply with this Agreement, and we don’t take action right away, this doesn’t mean that we are giving up any rights that we may have (such as taking action in the future).

If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms.

You may not assign, transfer, or delegate any portion of this Agreement without Swipe Wire’s prior written consent. Swipe Wire may assign, transfer, or delegate any portion of this Agreement with or without notice to You. Your attempt to assign, transfer, or delegate this Agreement without Swipe Wire’s consent will be null and void.
