Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how 17hats collects and uses the personal information of users of the 17hats service (the "Service").

The Information We Collect

We may collect your name, postal address, email address, phone number, password, or other information you directly give us on our Service.

We automatically log information about you and your computer. For example, when visiting our Service, we may log your computer operating system type, browser type, browser language, the website you visited before browsing to our Service, pages you viewed, how long you spent on a page, access times, Internet protocol (IP) address and information about your use of and actions on our Service. This is done to measure and improve the performance of our Service.

We may log information using "cookies." Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive by a website. Cookies help us make our Service and your visit better. We use cookies to see which parts of our Service people use and like and to count visits to our Service. (And yep, we still find the use of the word "cookies" kind of adorable.)

We may log information using digital images called Web beacons on our Service or in our emails. We use Web beacons to manage cookies, count visits, and to learn what marketing works and what does not. We also use Web Beacons to tell if you open or act on our emails. Again, this is done to measure and improve the performance of our Service. Nothing more.

17hats uses third parties to gather End User's data from financial institutions. By using our service, you grant our third-party provider the right, power, and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your personal and financial information from the relevant financial institution according to terms of our third-party provider's privacy policy.

How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information as follows:

  1. to operate, maintain, and improve our sites, products, and services.
  2. to respond to comments and questions and provide customer service.
  3. to send information including confirmations, invoices, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages.
  4. to protect, investigate, and deter against fraudulent, unauthorized, or illegal activity.
  5. to provide and deliver products and services customers request.

We Never Share Your Personal Information

Your personal information is yours, and we respect that. So we don't share your personal information with anybody for any reason. Period.

The only exception to this is if we are required to share your personal information with law enforcement or to respond to lawful requests such as a subpoena.

Information Choices and Changes

Most emails we send you will be about your account and our business dealings with you. Sometimes, we may send you non-essential emails, but these emails will have a clear way to "opt-out." If you opt out, you will no longer receive non-essential emails from us.

You can typically remove and reject cookies from our Service with your browser settings. Many browsers are set to accept cookies until you change your settings. If you remove or reject our cookies, it could affect how our Service works for you. So just a heads up on that.

Security of Your Personal and Customer Information

We take the security of your personal and customer information very seriously, and so we follow industry-standard protocols to protect it.
