Privacy Notice
Centipaid
Corporation knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust and
want you to feel confident in our services and security as it relates
to your personal information. This notice describes our privacy policy. By
visiting Centipaid or any of its sistes sites (centipix.com,
internetstamps.net, kidsafepay.com), you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information About Customers Does Centipaid
Gather?
The
information we learn from customers helps us personalize and improve
your online experience at Centipaid. Here are the types of
information we gather.
- Buying
CENTIPIX:Users who use a credit card to purchase their
centipix, should note that none of their personal or financial
information are tied to the purchased CENTIPIX. Your financial and
personal profiles are used soley by Centipaid Corporation to
complete its obligations with the Credit Card issuer to clear
payment. Users concerned with their privacy, can opt to buy
CENTIPIX using money orders and cash at local agents. Once you
receive a CENTIPIX, its serial number is used to manage the funds
available, and it is the only link between you and centipaid.
The serial number is NOT used in the payment transactions
between you and the merchants, so there is no way for one or more
sites to track the movements of a payer by tracking the serial
number.
Centipaid insures this by generating a unqiue receipt number
everytime you make a purchase, which is given to the merchant as a
proof of payment.
New methods of payment are being reviewed by centipix.com and
centipaid.com that allow users to pay using non-credit card forms
to increase the anonymity of the purchase if the user decides to
take extra measures.
- Information You Give Us: We receive and store any
information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way.
You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you
might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We
use the information that you provide for such purposes as
responding to your requests, fulfilling orders, customizing future
shopping for you, improving our store features, and communication
with you.
- Automatic

you interact with our website. For example, like many web sites,
we sometimes use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of

Communications: To help
us make e-mails more productive to improve service and your shopping
experience, we sometimes send you newsletters of our services and products,
notifications of changes to our policies, and order confirmations. If
you do not want to receive e-mail from us,
other than order notifications and receipts, please adjust your
"Subscription" preferences by logging into your account. In the case of
Centipaid merchants receving monthly newsletters,we have an "unsubscribe" link in each

What About Cookies?

Does Centipaid Share the Information It
Receives?
We respect your
privacy and appreciate your business. At no time do we ever provide
your account contact or payment information to any third party
vendor, associate or service provider unless absolutely neccessary
in order to complete your transaction and order.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to
protect the security of your information during transmission by
using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts
information you provide to us for purchasing of our products or
services. We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card
numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire
credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during
order processing. It is important for you to protect against
unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure
to sign off when finished using a shared computer by clicking the
"log off" link located in the side menu.
In addition to the security provided by SSL,
Centipaid employes CENTIPIX as a method of payment. CENTIPIX enable users
to make completely anonymous payments on sites accepting CENTIPIX. Our
design enables us to service our merchants, without transmitting any information
related to the holder of the CENTIPIX.

and your interactions with us for the limited purpose of viewing
and, in certain cases, updating that information.

check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated
otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information
