Collection of your Personal Information

Stanchion collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address or telephone number. Stanchion also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites. There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by Stanchion. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring website addresses. This information is used by Stanchion for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Stanchion website.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through Stanchion public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.

Note:

Stanchion does not read any of your private online communications.

Stanchion encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to from Stanchion, so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information.

Stanchion is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the Stanchion website.

Use of your Personal Information

Stanchion collects and uses your personal information to operate the Stanchion website and deliver the services you have requested. Stanchion also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from Stanchion and its affiliates. Stanchion may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

Stanchion does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. Stanchion may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, Stanchion may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Stanchion, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

Stanchion is a provider of specialist and complex payments technology, services and skills to large banks, retailers, payment companies, Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and telecommunications companies globally. We reach out to potential clients by identifying job roles and incumbents that would generally be interested in understanding the value propositions for expert skills, services and technologies in the payments system domain. We normally introduce ourselves to decision makers in the payments domain through an initial direct email introduction, based on our understanding that this is the most appropriate way to introduce our specialist services in the business-to-business context. Stanchion does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Stanchion keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within Stanchion, in order to determine what Stanchion services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customised content and advertising within Stanchion to customers whose behaviour indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

Stanchion websites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on Stanchion or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Stanchion; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Stanchion, or the public.

Use of Cookies

The Stanchion website uses “cookies” to help you personalise your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a webpage server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalise Stanchion pages, or register with Stanchion site or services, a cookie helps Stanchion to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Stanchion website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Stanchion features that you customised. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Stanchion services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Stanchion secures your personal information from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. Stanchion secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

Changes to this Statement

Stanchion will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. Stanchion encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how Stanchion is protecting your information.
