How does PayrollOrg use the personal information it collects?
PayrollOrg collects information to provide you with the Services you request and to improve our websites. Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a secure, smooth, efficient, and customized experience.
In general, we use personal information to create, develop, operate, deliver, and improve our Services, content, and advertising. Your relationship with PayrollOrg will determine which purposes apply to you. Examples of how we may use this information
include:
- To Provide You With Services. When you access our website or otherwise use your Services, we collect certain information about you to be able to support your requests and manage your membership. For example, we may collect information about you and your company when you complete an inquiry form on our Services to hear more about our products and services. We cannot provide you with our Services without processing your personal information.
- Enforce Our Terms, Agreements or Policies. We process your personal information to enforce certain terms, agreements, and policies relevant to our relationship with you, including any agreements with third-party partners. We will also collect fees based on your use of the Services, and actively monitor, investigate, prevent or mitigate any alleged or actual prohibited, illicit, or illegal activities on our Services. This processing allows us to maintain a trusted environment for you. We cannot perform the Services without such processing.
- To Provide Customer Support. Whenever you contact us for customer support or any other reason (e.g., diagnose or fix technology problems, provide feedback, notify us of a dispute, etc.), we process any information you provide to us and any information we already have about you. Without processing your personal information for such purposes, we cannot respond to you or ensure your continued use and enjoyment of the Services.
- To Provide You With Administrative Communications. We will contact you to keep you updated about your account and the Services, such as changes to this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use and our other policies, security updates, or to provide transaction-related information to you. Without such communications, we cannot provide you with important information about your continued use of our Services.
- To Provide Secure Services. We are committed to ensuring your personal information is processed securely on our Services. To maintain the security of our Services, we may process your personal information to investigate, detect, prevent or report fraud, misrepresentation, security incidents or breaches, spam, malware, malicious activities or other prohibited or illegal activities. In addition, we process your personal information to improve the security of our Services. We cannot provide the Services securely without such processing.
- To Develop New Ways to Understand Our Members' Requirements. We process your personal information to strengthen our understanding of our members' needs and goals in using the Services, so that we may anticipate new features or products that will enhance our members' experiences and otherwise maintain and improve the Services.
- To Conduct Research and Product Development. We may process your personal information to improve, optimize or expand our Services or features of our Services. We do so by processing information about your use of the Services, any information you provide to us (e.g., feedback, survey responses, etc.) and by measuring, tracking and analyzing trends and usage in connection to your use or the performance of our Services. Without processing your information for such purposes, we may not be able to ensure your continued enjoyment of part or all of our Services.
- To Engage in Marketing Activities. We may process your personal information to: send you marketing communications; run contests, special offers or other events or activities; send you information about opportunities, products, services, contests, promotions, discounts, incentives, surveys, and rewards offered by us and select partners; or otherwise market our products and services, including targeted marketing. When you share your friends' or business partners' contact information with us, we may reach out to them on your behalf in accordance with applicable laws. You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time and without charge.
We will not use your personal information for purposes other than those purposes we have disclosed to you, without your permission. From time to time we may request your permission to allow us to share your personal information with third parties. Data
collection that is optional will be clearly stated when collected. However, if you decide not to share required personal information with us, it may delay or stop us from meeting our obligations and this can also mean that we cannot perform Services
needed to carry out requested transactions. We are required to collect certain personal information by law, and/or under the terms of a contract we have with you. By not sharing the required data with us, it may lead to cancelling a Service you have
with us.
How does PayrollOrg share my personal information?
We may share your information as follows.
- Affiliated Businesses. We may share your personal information with group companies and affiliates. Affiliated businesses may use your information to help provide, understand, and improve the Services and affiliates' own services.

Also, we may share aggregate website statistics with the media or other third parties. No personally identifiable information is disclosed to these sponsors/advertisers or other third parties as part of this process - only information in an aggregate form.

need it for the purposes for which we originally collected it.
We recognize that retention requirements can vary between jurisdictions, but we generally apply the retention periods described below.

Do Not Track Policy
California law requires that operators of websites and online services disclose how they respond to a Do Not Track signal. Some browsers have incorporated "Do Not Track" features. Most of these features, when turned on, send a signal or preference
to the website or online service that a user visits, indicating that the user does not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret Do Not Track signals, we do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.
We continue to work with the online industry to define a common understanding of how to treat Do Not Track signals.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to request information from us regarding the manner in which we share certain categories of your personal information with third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. California
law provides that you have the right to submit a request to us at our designated address and receive the following information: (a) the categories of information we disclosed to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes during
the preceding calendar year; and (b) the names and addresses of third parties that received such information, or if the nature of their business cannot be determined from the name, then examples of the products or services marketed.
You are entitled to receive a copy of this information in a standardized format and the information will not be specific to you individually. You may make such a request by emailing [email protected].
Fraudulent Emails
Fraudulent emails adopt many different forms and are the unauthorized actions of third parties not associated with PayrollOrg. These email messages, also known as "phishing" or "spoofing," are becoming more common and may appear legitimate by
incorporating company brands, colors, or other legal disclaimers. Learn more about
protecting yourself from fraud.
Please be advised that PayrollOrg does not request payments, personal information, financial information, account numbers, IDs, passwords, or copies of invoices in an unsolicited manner through email, mail, phone, or fax. PayrollOrg also
does not provide our list to other organizations to sell. PayrollOrg accepts no responsibility for any costs or charges incurred as a result of fraudulent activity.
