All information is securely stored on our servers in the United States. Our safeguards and procedures have been implemented in accordance with US state and federal law and regulations to maintain the physical and electronic security of our software, services and your personal information.

Using Personal Information

We use your Personal Information to provide you the features and functionality of the service, and may share it with our trusted third parties, to ensure that you have a safe, high-performance experience when using the service. When you use the service, including accepting a payment, requesting funds, contacting customer service or requesting technical support, in addition to many other interactions with ReliaBills, we will apply the information that we have collected.

We may also use this information to measure how our members use the service, and improve and enhance our offerings to you.

ReliaBills may use certain information about you without identifying you as an individual to third parties. We do this for purposes such as analyzing how the service is used, diagnosing service or technical problems, maintaining security, and personalizing content.

We use cookies and log file information to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the site; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) monitor the effectiveness of our service; (d) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors and traffic; (e) diagnose or fix technology problems reported by our users or engineers that are associated with certain IP addresses; and (f) help you efficiently access your information after you sign in.

Sharing Personal information

ReliaBills will not rent or sell your Personal Information to others. ReliaBills may share your Personal Information with third parties for the purpose of providing services to you (such as those described below). If we do this, such third parties’ use of your Personal Information will be bound by terms at least as restrictive as this Privacy Policy. We may store personal information in locations outside the direct control of ReliaBills (for instance, on servers or databases co-located with hosting providers).

Processing payment transactions requires that we share your personal information with third parties, including but not limited to:

• Service providers who provide us a range of essential operational services including fraud prevention, transaction processing, collections, direct marketing, and managed technology services. Our contracts dictate that these service providers only use your information in connection with the services they perform for us and not for their own benefit.
• Verification services and credit bureaus to underwrite your application for ReliaBills accounts and to comply with our legal credit reporting rights and obligations.
• Financial institutions that allow us to offer your payment processing services, and partner with us to develop new offerings for you and other ReliaBills members.
• Fellow ReliaBills members who may accept payments from you through using ReliaBills.
• Law enforcement authorities or government representatives who may require us to share information in order to comply with court order and other legal mandates, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to report suspicious activities, prevent physical harm, financial loss, or violations of our agreements and policies.
• Other third parties, subject to your prior consent or direction.

When you receive emails from ReliaBills, they are solely for the purpose of notifying you of upcoming charges, completed charges, past due amounts, or other information specifically related to the servicing of your account. From time to time, we may include commercial offers within these emails. No personal information has been or will be provided to these third parties by ReliaBills.

Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, ReliaBills will not disclose Personal Information to any third party unless required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that such action is necessary to (a) conform to the law, comply with legal process served on us or our affiliates, or investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities; (b) to enforce our User agreement, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, or to protect the security or integrity of our site; and (c) to exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of ReliaBills, our Users or others.

Compromise of Personal Information

In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, ReliaBills will promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Policy, by email, or as otherwise required by applicable law.
