Payment Information, including credit card or debit card information and information about the payment methods and services (such as PayPal or Venmo) used to make purchases on or through our Services. Payment information is primarily stored and processed by our third-party service providers, including our payment processors; however, we may store and process limited payment-related information such as the last four digits of a payment card, name of the financial institution, and payment service.

b. Nevada: For Nevada residents, under Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 603A (Security and Privacy of Personal Information) (“Nevada Privacy Law”), companies that qualify as an Operator under Nevada Privacy Law must satisfy certain requirements pertaining to “Covered Information.” The term “Covered Information” is defined to include the following items of personally identifiable information: (1) first and last name, (2) home or other physical address, (3) email address, (4) phone number, (5) social security number, (6) an identifier that allows a specific person to be contacted either physically or online, and (7) any other information concerning a person collected from the person through the Internet website or online service of the operator and maintained by the operator or data broker in combination with an identifier in a form that makes the information personally identifiable. Under Nevada Privacy Law, certain Nevada consumers may opt-out of the sale of Covered Information, with “sale” being defined as the exchange of Covered Information for monetary consideration. We do not believe that we sell Covered Information under Nevada Privacy Law; however, we do offer an opt-out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information to satisfy requirements under other data protection laws and this right is available to Nevada residents as well.
VIII. Security and Retention.

In addition, we are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our Services or those on third-party websites.

If you have reason to believe that your TreeStorX account or any interaction with us is no longer secure please let us know immediately by contacting TreeStorX support or as indicated below in Section XII (How to Contact Us) of this Policy.
We retain your Personal Information for only as long as required to provide our Services to you and engage in the uses described in this Policy, unless a different retention period is required by applicable law.
