reputable, including public repositories.
The only personal
information we collect is information you provide us.

available at the point of sale, through privacy notices on our
Web sites, in other formats that are publicly available or
through other means specified by applicable state and federal
laws. In addition, when Cardservice obtains personal information
about consumers indirectly through our merchants, we require our
merchants to provide these consumers with their own timely and
complete privacy notice.
We strive to give
you choices about how your information will be used.

believes may be of interest to you.

develops new products and services, we may contact you to
determine if we can provide you with additional services. Most
of our customers appreciate hearing about our new products and
services and prefer that we continue to contact them. If you
would prefer not to be contacted we will make information
available to you about how you may request to have your name
removed from any Cardservice owned marketing lists. You may also
