As a global Commerce Platform, FreedomPay is committed to the security and privacy of its customers’ data. We’re committed to helping you stay up to date on how and why your information is collected.

What You Need to Know
Updated Privacy Policy
FreedomPay’s Privacy Policy is meant to explain the data we collect across various platforms and how it is processed. This is an evolving document that will change over time, and has recently been changed in order to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) along with the EU-US Privacy Shield framework, Colorado House Bill 18-1128, and California’s Consumer Right to Privacy Act, effective immediately. A summary of the changes made includes:
Data Collection: We’ve clarified the data we collect to include payment processing, cookies, marketing data, monitoring data of our corporate website, and employee data.
Data Access: As required by the GDPR and Consumer Right to Privacy Act, we have included information about citizen’s rights regarding the data we collect and how they can access, edit, or have that data deleted.
Interaction with Third Parties: As a payment gateway, FreedomPay is required to transfer data to third parties (ex. Credit card processors) in order to provide its services. FreedomPay’s privacy policy outlines what FreedomPay requires from these third parties in terms of security and operational procedures to ensure transferred data is properly secured.
