Throughout this Privacy Policy, we will refer to our website, applications delivered via the web, and other related services collectively as the “Service.” This Privacy Policy does not apply to information we collect by means other than your use of the Service, including information we collect offline, from any third party, or from other sources.

Cookies also allow our Website to remind you of your past usage and to suggest similar products and services. We also use information gained through cookies to compile statistical information about use of our Service such as the time users spend at the site and the pages they visit most often.

We use information we collect from you to the extent necessary to enforce our Website Terms of Service and to prevent imminent harm to persons or property.
Sharing Your Information With Third Parties
Whizzo Pay will not rent or sell your Personal Information to third parties. We may store it in locations outside the direct control of Whizzo Pay – for instance, on servers or databases co-located with hosting providers.
Whizzo Pay will share your Personal Information with a limited number of Whizzo Pay partners for the explicit purpose of providing services to you. If we do this, such third parties’ use of your Personal Information will be bound by terms at least as restrictive as this Privacy Policy.
Whizzo Pay will also share your Personal Information if we are required to do so by law or subpoena, or if we believe that such action is necessary to conform to the law or comply with the legal process served upon us, or to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities. We will also share this information to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other user agreements, including for billing and collection purposes, to take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our site. We will also share Personal Information if we believe that disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property, or safety of Whizzo Pay, our customers, or others.
As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or business offerings. Whizzo Pay may share your Personal Information with a buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of Whizzo Pay’s assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which personal information held by Whizzo Pay about our Service’s users is among the assets transferred.
We may also share your Personal Information to fulfill the purpose for which you provide it, for any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide it, and with your consent.
We may provide information that does not identify you as an individual to third parties. We do this to analyze how the Service is running, diagnose service or technical problems, maintain security, and personalize content. We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions about how a third party may use your information, you should contact the third party directly.
