This Privacy Statement applies to your Personal Data when you visit Sites or use your PayPal account, Xoom account, visit our websites, apply for or use our Services (collectively, the Services), and does not apply to online websites or services that we do not own or control, including websites or services of other PayPal Users. This Privacy Statement does not apply to Other Services, such as Hyperwallet.

This Privacy Statement is designed to help you obtain information about our privacy practices and to help you understand your privacy choices when you use our Sites and Services. Please note that our Service offerings may vary by region.

We have defined some terms that we use throughout the Privacy Statement. You can find the meaning of a capitalized term in the Definitions section below.

Please contact us if you have questions about our privacy practices that are not addressed in this Privacy Statement.

We may collect information about you when you visit our Sites or use our Services, including the following:

• Registration and use information – When you register to use our Services, we will collect Personal Data as necessary to offer and fulfill the Services you request. Depending on the Services you choose, we may require you to provide us with your name, postal address, telephone number, email address and identification information to establish an account or profile. We may require you to provide us with additional Personal Data as you use our Services.
• Transaction and experience information – When you use our Services or access our Sites, for example, to make purchases from Partners and Merchants, to receive money, to process payments, or to send money to friends and family, we collect information about the transaction, as well as other information associated with the transaction such as amount sent or requested, amount paid for products or services, Partner and Merchant information, including information about any funding instruments used to complete the transaction, Device Information, Technical Usage Data, and Geolocation Information.
• Participant information – When you use our Services or access our Sites, we collect Personal Data you provide us about the other participants associated with the transaction.
• Send or request money: When you send or request money through the Services, we collect Personal Data such as name, postal address, telephone number, and financial account information about the participant who is receiving money from you or sending money to you. The extent of Personal Data required about a participant may vary depending on the Services you are using to send or request money.
• Pay or request someone else to pay a bill:  If you use our Services to pay a bill for the benefit of someone else, or if you request a User to pay a bill for you, we collect Personal Data from you about the account holder such as name, postal address, telephone number, email address, and account number of the bill that you intend to pay or request to be paid.
• Add value to your accounts:  If you use our Services to add value to your account or any other account you may have, or if you ask a User to add value to any of these accounts, we may collect Personal Data from you about the other party, or from the other party about you to facilitate the request. For example, if you use our Services to reload a mobile phone, or to request value be added to your mobile account, we may collect Personal Data and other information including mobile account number from the other participant.
• Biometric: When you consent in the user experience, we collect, use and store biometric data, being voice identification, photo identification, or face scans to verify your identity and for account authentication checks including, for example, verify your identity and authenticate you to meet regulatory requirements or before you access accounts and Services, recover passwords, update profile info, manage payments and payment methods, or lift account limitations.
• Information about your public profile and your friends and contacts – It may be easier for us to help you transact with your friends and contacts if you choose to connect your contact list information with your account or if your account profile is publicly available. If you establish an account connection between your device or a social media platform and your account, we will use your contact list information (such as name, address, email address) to improve your experience when you use the Services. When your account profile is public, other users can find your profile to send you money by searching for you by name, username, email, or mobile number on PayPal and confirm it’s you by viewing your photo. You can make your account profile private anytime in your PayPal.me settings.
• Information that you choose to provide us to obtain additional Services or specific online Services – If you request or participate in an optional Site feature, or request enhanced Services or other elective functionality, we may collect additional information from you. We will provide you with a separate notice at the time of collection, if the use of that information differs from the uses disclosed in this Privacy Statement.
• Personal Data about you if you use Unbranded Payment Services – certain Services are available without being required to log in to or establish an account. We will collect Personal Data when you are interacting with and making payments to Partners and Merchants using our card payment services that do not carry the PayPal brand and when you checkout with PayPal without logging into an account. For our Unbranded Payment Services, your interaction is with the merchant, on their platform. If you are an account holder, or create an account at a later date, we may collect information about unbranded transactions and associate them with your account to improve your customer experience as an account holder and for compliance and analytics purposes. If you are not an account holder, we will collect and store all information you provide and use such information in accordance with this Privacy Statement.
• Information about you from third-party sources – We obtain information from third-party sources such as Partners and Merchants, data providers, and credit bureaus, where permitted by law.
• Inferred Data – We may derive inferences from your transactions and personal data when you use the Services. We do this, for example, to help keep your account and profile secure and protect your use of the Services from fraud. We may draw inferences that reflect your behaviour patterns and personal preferences, browsing and purchasing habits, and creditworthiness.
• Biometric information– When you consent in the user experience, we collect, use and store biometric data, being voice identification, photo identification, or face scans to verify your identity and for account authentication checks including, for example, verify your identity and authenticate you to meet regulatory requirements or before you access accounts and Services, recover passwords, update profile info, manage payments and payment methods, or lift account limitations.

• Other information we collect related to your use of our Sites or Services – We may collect additional information from or about you when you communicate with us, contact our customer support teams or respond to a survey.

If you use our Services without creating or logging into an account, such as when you use our Pay Without a PayPal account, use Unbranded Payment Services (e.g. Braintree), use PayPal Groups, or use a Fastlane profile, we'll still collect personal data, which may include your payment information, device information, and location. When you use our Services without creating or logging into an account, we will use this information to process transactions, prevent fraud and comply with the law. We may connect this information with your account, if you have one or if you create an account at a later date.

With a Fastlane profile, individuals can store their payment methods and other Personal Data with PayPal so that they can complete the checkout process faster, create a store or loyalty account, or facilitate other transactions at participating Partners and Merchants with payment card, contact information, shipping data or other data they save in their Fastlane profile as relevant to the specific interaction, participating Partner or Merchant, all without having to manually input payment method details and other Personal Data each time they check out (“Fastlane”).

When you create a Fastlane profile, PayPal will store your Personal Data, including your name, email, phone number, address information, billing information and payment method details, and other data that will be relevant to specific Partner or Merchant interactions, and pre-populate that information in the checkout flows or other interactive features of participating Partners and Merchants so that you can enjoy a faster Partner and Merchant experience by not having to manually input your payment or other information. We will also collect transaction and other Partner or Merchant data related to your purchases and other Partner and Merchant interactions when you use Fastlane. If you have a Fastlane profile, we may recognize you as a Fastlane user when you shop on the participating Partners and Merchants sites and we may prompt you to engage in participating Partner or Merchant interactions, such as register for a store or loyalty account using your Fastlane profile information. If you choose to interact with participating Partners or Merchants through Fastlane, you agree to let PayPal disclose your Fastlane profile information to the Participating Partners and Merchants and their service providers, and to facilitate your transaction and shopping experience on the participating Partners and Merchants sites.

When you shop on Partner and Merchant sites, the Partner and Merchant may disclose Personal Data with PayPal that we will use in accordance with this Privacy Statement and the relevant PayPal user agreement.

We retain Personal Data to fulfill our legal or regulatory obligations and for our business purposes. We may retain Personal Data for longer periods than required by law if it is in our legitimate business interests and not prohibited by law. We retain biometric data for as long as needed or permitted given the purpose for which it was collected and no more than 3 years after your account closes, unless otherwise required by applicable law. If your account or profile is closed, we may take steps to mask Personal Data and other information, but we reserve our ability to retain and access the data for so long as required to comply with applicable laws. We will continue to use and disclose such Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Statement. We retain biometric data for as long as needed or permitted given the purpose for which it was collected and no more than 3 years after your account closes, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

We may share your Personal Data or other information about you with others in a variety of ways as described in this section of the Privacy Statement.

We may share your Personal Data or other information for the following reasons:

With other members of the PayPal corporate family: We may share your Personal Data with members of the PayPal family of entities to, among other things, provide the Services you have requested or authorized; to manage risk; to help detect and prevent potentially illegal and fraudulent acts and other violations of our policies and agreements; and to help us manage the availability and connectivity of PayPal products, Services, and communications.

With other companies that provide services to us: We may share Personal Data with third-party service providers that perform services and functions at our direction and on our behalf. These third-party service providers may, for example, provide you with Services, verify your identity, assist in processing transactions, send you advertisements for our products and Services, or provide customer support.

With other financial institutions: We may share Personal Data with other financial institutions that we have partnered with to jointly offer a product, such as with Synchrony Bank in connection with the PayPal Extras credit card. These financial institutions may only use this information to market and offer PayPal-related products, unless you have given consent for other uses. We may also share Personal Data to process transactions, provide you with benefits associated with your eligible cards, and keep your financial information up to date. For payment transactions with Fastlane, your Personal Data will be shared with the provider of the payment services for the participating Partner and Merchant to enable the processing of the payment transaction. The payment provider for the Partner and Merchant may be PayPal or a third party payment provider.

With the other parties to transactions when you use the Services, such as other Users, Partners and Merchants, and their service providers: We may share information about you and your account or profile with the other parties involved in processing your transactions. For example, we may do this when you use the Services to initiate online purchases, save your payment information with Fastlane, pay other Users, use the Services or return goods. The other parties with whom we may share such information include other Users you are sending or receiving funds from or to, Partners and Merchants, and their service providers when you use the Services to pay for goods or services. The information includes:

• Personal Data and account or profile information necessary to facilitate the transaction;
• information to help other participant(s) resolve disputes and detect and prevent fraud; and
• aggregated data and performance analytics to help Partners and Merchants better understand Users and to help Partners and Merchants enhance Users’ experiences. 

With other third parties for our business purposes or as permitted or required by law: We may share information about you with other parties for PayPal’s business purposes or as permitted or required by law, including:

• if we need to do so to comply with a law, legal process or regulations;
• law enforcement, regulators, government officials, or other third parties (in Singapore or elsewhere) in relation to a subpoena, court order, or other legal process or requirement under Singapore law or regulation, or the laws and regulations of other jurisdictions that are applicable to PayPal or one of its affiliates; when we need to do so to comply with such law or credit card rules; or when we believe, in our sole discretion, that the disclosure of Personal Data is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss; or to report suspected illegal activity or to investigate violations of a user agreement;

• to protect the vital interests of a person;
• to protect our property, Services and legal rights;
• to facilitate a purchase or sale of all or part of PayPal’s business;
• in connection with shipping and related services for purchases made using a Service;
• to help assess and manage risk and prevent fraud against us, our Users and fraud involving our Sites or use of our Services, including fraud that occurs at or involves our business partners, strategic ventures, or other individuals and Partners and Merchants;
• to banking partners as required by card association rules for inclusion on their list of terminated Partners and Merchants;
• to credit reporting and collection agencies;
• to companies that we plan to merge with or be acquired by; and
• to support our audit, compliance, and corporate governance functions.

With your consent: We also will share your Personal Data and other information with your consent or direction, including if you authorize an account connection with a third-party account or platform.

In addition, PayPal may provide aggregated statistical data to third-parties, including other businesses and members of the public, about how, when, and why Users visit our Sites and use our Services. This data will not personally identify you or provide information about your use of the Sites or Services. We do not share your Personal Data with third parties for their marketing purposes without your consent.

A significant benefit and innovation of PayPal’s Services is that you can connect your account with a third-party account or platform. For the purposes of this Privacy Statement, an “account connection” with such a third-party is a connection you authorize or enable between your account and a non-PayPal account, payment instrument, or platform that you lawfully control or own. When you authorize such a connection, PayPal and the third-party will exchange your Personal Data and other information directly. Examples of account connections include:

• linking your account to a social media account or social messaging service;
• connecting your account to a third-party data aggregation or financial services company, if you provide such company with your account log-in credentials; or
• using your account to make payments to Partners and Merchants or allowing Partners and Merchants to charge your account.

If you choose to create an account connection, we may receive information from the third-party about you and your use of the third-party’s service. For example, if you connect your account to a social media account, we will receive Personal Data from the social media provider via the account connection. If you connect your account to other financial accounts, directly or through a third-party service provider, we may have access to your account balance and transactional information, such as purchases and funds transfers. We will use all such information that we receive from a third-party via an account connection in a manner consistent with this Privacy Statement.

Information that we share with a third-party based on an account connection will be used and disclosed in accordance with the third-party’s privacy practices. Before authorizing an account connection, you should review the privacy notice of any third-party that will gain access to your Personal Data as part of the account connection. For example, Personal Data that PayPal shares with a third-party account or platform such as a social media account may in turn be shared with certain other parties, including the general public, depending on the account’s or platform’s privacy practices.

When you visit our Sites, use our Services, or visit a third-party website for which we provide online Services, we and our business partners and vendors may use cookies and other tracking technologies (collectively, “Cookies”) to recognize you as a User and to customize your online experiences, the Services you use, and other online content and advertising; measure the effectiveness of promotions and perform analytics; and to mitigate risk, prevent potential fraud, and promote trust and safety across our Sites and Services.
