This information may include, for example, name, mailing address, email address, phone number, and similar information. In some cases, you may provide it directly, such as by entering information into an application or online form, and in some cases, you may provide it indirectly, such as the IP address of the computer or device you use to connect with us online. We may use the personal information you provide us to:

When You Browse The Payment Advisors Website, We Do Not Seek to Determine Your Identity.
This website may use cookies for various business purposes. For example, this website may use cookies to aggregate information about the pages that users visit so that we can update and redesign our site to provide you with the most useful information. Personal information, such as your email address, is not included in cookies and is not collected unless you provide it to us. The Payment Advisors does not disclose domain name or aggregate information to third parties other than vendors who assist us with our website and who are under contractual confidentiality requirements.
From time to time, however, we may disclose this information to fulfill legal or regulatory obligations or if we determine such disclosure is legally advisable or necessary to protect our rights, the rights of others, or to prevent harm (for example, for fraud prevention purposes we may confirm that your IP address matches the location you enter into an online form). Also, we may aggregate data about users of our site and use it for statistical or analytic purposes. This information helps us to better understand our site’s users and how to improve our website and our offerings.
Information about Online Tracking
Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as using or collecting information in connection with a single website. For these purposes tracking refers to collecting personally identifiable information from consumers who use or visit a website or online service as they move across different websites over time.
How browsers communicate the Do Not Track signal is not yet uniform. As a result, this site is not set-up to interpret or respond to Do Not Track signals communicated by your browser. Even so, as described more fully throughout this Online Privacy Statement, we limit our use and collection of your personal information.
For a description of Do Not Track protocols for browsers and mobile devices, or simply to learn more about the choices available to you, you can visit the All About Do Not Track website: http://allaboutdnt.com
