4. WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?
Newtek Payment Systems collects, uses, discloses, transfers, and stores personal information when needed to provide services for operational and business purposes as described in this Privacy Policy. Newtek Payment Systems does not use personally identifiable information beyond what is necessary for fulfilling a customer transaction or for the basic functionality of an online service.
Newtek Payment Systems may share your information (1) with Newtek subsidiaries and portfolio companies; (2) with third-party organizations that referred you to Newtek Payment Systems (“Referral Sources”); (3) with service providers; (4) with joint marketing partners; and (5) with others to assist you and any Referral Sources in serving your needs in relation to the Newtek Payment Systems products and services, but only in circumstances where such sharing conforms to law, any applicable confidentiality agreements, or for legal and routine business reasons.
Additionally, Newtek Payment Systems may provide your information as required by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:
- comply with any federal and state laws, industry standards or with legal process served on Newtek Payment Systems;
- provide to credit reporting agencies;
- protect and defend the rights or property of Newtek Payment Systems;
- protect against fraud, money laundering and other risks; or

If you are a consumer and not a business client, Newtek Payment Systems will not share your non-public information with any third party other than with other Newtek subsidiaries and portfolio companies, Referral Sources or service providers, or third-party marketeers without your consent.
Newtek Payment Systems does not share personal consumer credit related information that is not public information with any person or entity other than Newtek subsidiaries and portfolio companies, but it may share demographic information so that the Referral Sources, joint marketeers and service providers may analyze the impact they are having on the business community.
Links and Linked Internet Websites
Our Referral Sources and the other third parties with whom we may provide your information have their own privacy policies. Additionally, the Site and Newtek Payment Systems Technology may provide links to other sites. These external sites may also have their own privacy provisions and security practices in place. Newtek Payment Systems has no control over and is not responsible for the collection, use or disclosure of information collected by Referral Sources and other third parties. Newtek Payment Systems expressly disclaims any and all liability related to any collection, disclosure or use of such information from Referral Sources and other third parties.

6. IS YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED INTERNATIONALLY?
Our servers are located in the United States. We do not target users outside of the United States. If you are accessing the Site from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in our facilities and by those third parties with whom we may share your personal information (see “Will Your Information Be Shared With Anyone?” above), in the United States.
If you are a resident in the European Economic Area, the United States may not have data protection or other laws as comprehensive as those in your country. We will, however, take all reasonable measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.
In addition, if you are a European Economic Area customer and prefer not to be tracked, or if you would like to request additional information on this Privacy Policy, please contact us.
7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
Your information is retained in accordance with Newtek Payment Systems’s document retention policies, which are reasonably designed to conform to applicable industry practices and applicable law.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
8. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
Newtek Payment Systems maintains physical, electronic, and procedural security safeguards that are reasonable and appropriate. Your personally-identifiable data is stored in our password-controlled servers with limited access, accessible only by authorized Newtek personnel.
However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from the Site or through Newtek Payment Systems Technology is at your own risk. You should only access the services within a secure environment. In the event of a data breach, you will be notified by phone, email or mail at the contact information you provided.
9. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
Newtek Payment Systems does not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years of age. By using or accessing the Site or Newtek Payment Systems Technology, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Site or Newtek Payment Systems Technology, as applicable. If we learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 18, please contact us
