How we use and share personal data of End Users
Services. We use your Personal Data to provide the End User Service to you, including security, delivery, support, personalization and messages related to the End User Service (e.g. communicating Policy updates and information about our Services). We also use your Personal Data for our fraud detection and mitigation Business Services and may share certain Personal Data as part of those Business Services with Business Users that you may seek to do business with. The use of this Personal Data is subject to the Business Users’ privacy policies.
Our Business Users. When you choose to connect your bank account with Stripe, you may also choose to share account information with certain Business Users that you do business with. These Business Users will have their own privacy policies which describe how they use that information.
Transactions. For payment transactions with Link, End User Personal Data is shared with others to enable the transaction. For example, when you choose to use a payment method for the transaction with Stripe or with Link (e.g. credit card, debit card, buy now pay later, or direct debit), that payment method will receive transaction information that includes your Personal Data. Please review your payment method’s privacy policy to learn more. When you use Link, the merchant you choose to do business with will also receive Transaction Data that includes your Personal Data and with your permission, your bank account information. The merchant may share that Personal Data with others (see below regarding End Customers). Please review your merchant’s privacy policy for further information.
Fraud Detection Services. We use your Personal Data collected across our Services (e.g. Stripe Radar) to detect and prevent fraud against us, our Business Users and financial partners, including to detect unauthorized log-ins using your online activity. We may provide Business Users (including card issuers and others involved in payment processing activities) that have requested our fraud Business Services with Personal Data about you (including your attempted transactions) so that they can assess the associated fraud risk with a transaction. You can learn more about how we may use technology to assess the fraud risk associated with an attempted transaction here.
Advertising. We may use your Personal Data to assess your eligibility for and offer you other End User Services. With your permission or where allowed by law, we use and share End User Personal Data with others so that we may market our products and services to you, including through interest-based advertising where allowed by applicable law, including subject to any consent requirements. See our Cookie Policy. We do not share End User Personal Data with third parties for their marketing or advertising unless you give us or the third party permission to do so. We do not sell the data of End Users.
