1. What we collect

We collect information you provide directly when you request a savings analysis, including your name, business name, email address, phone number, current processor, POS system, and any statement file you upload. We also collect standard technical data such as your browser type, IP address, and pages visited to help us operate and improve the site.

2. How we use your information

We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights.

6. Security

We apply reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information we collect. No online transmission or storage method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
