Privacy Policy

We highly value your privacy and make this policy available to assist you in understanding how Espirity handles personally identifiable information collected from clients and vendors who register for SMS services and submit information to Espirity through our website and through SMS messages.

Information Collection and Use

Our website utilizes industry standard packages that gather limited information on visitors to our website automatically, and stores this anonymous information in server log files. This information may include IP addresses, browser type, basic IP information, referring pages, operating system used and date/time stamps. This information does not identify individual users; it is used only for site administration, as well as for analysis of website usage and trends.

We do not use cookies.

A higher level of information collection is setting up client and vendor accounts. Your rights are protected legislatively and as such, Espirity is bound by law to adhere to certain principals and guidelines.

Espirity collects personally identifiable information when you register for an Espirity account, and when you use certain Espirity products and services. Espirity may also receive personally identifiable information from its business partners.

When processing a payment transaction, we may receive from the gateway or financial institution information related to the transaction. This includes information about the payment that a client has made in making a service request.

Espirity uses the information collected to fulfill your requests for certain products and services, to process payment transactions, and to facilitate billing. We may also send service announcements, newsletters, and periodic notices about specials and new products and services. Personally identifiable consumer information is used to process payment transactions and for no other purpose.

Information Disclosure

Protecting personal information about clients and vendors is important to Espirity. We do not sell, trade, or transfer to other parties your personally identifiable information, other than trusted third parties who assist us in conducting our business or providing services to you. As such, we do share and disclose personally identifiable information about you to other companies or people when:

We need to share your information to provide the product or service you have requested; We need to send the information to companies who work on behalf of Espirity to provide a product or service to you (these companies do not have any right to use the personally identifiable information we provide them beyond what is necessary to assist us).

Personally identifiable consumer information is shared with third parties (such as banks and credit card processors) to the extent necessary for Espirity to process payments.

We also may release personally identifiable information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Espirity, our clients and vendors, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and risk reduction.

In the unlikely event that Espirity is acquired, client and vendor account information may be one of the transferred assets.

Information Security

To protect and secure your information during transmission to and from our website we use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.

Changes To This Privacy Policy

Espirity reserves the right to modify or amend this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason, and we will post those changes on this page.
