Personal Information
The term “Personal Information” generally refers to any information that can be used to identify an individual or information about an identifiable individual. This Privacy Policy describes the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information on our websites and various software and related services (the “Software Services”).
The Software Services are typically used by individual self-registered consumers, website visitors who may not be registered on the services, individuals registered on Aminutepay portals by customers of the software services, and integrated partners who use Aminutepay software services on their platforms. For the purposes of this privacy policy, all individual users, regardless of registered status and integration method, will be referred to as “end user”, “visitor”, or “customer”.
This Privacy Policy does not cover third-party collection, use, or disclosure of Personal Information, including by integrated Software Services partners. For more information on the types of Personal Information that may be stored on behalf of customers, please see the “Integrated Customer Data” section below.

Aminutepay exclusively holds the responsibility of safeguarding the Personal Information, as explained below, gathered from the publicly accessible part of www.aminutepay.com.

Our website collects information from our end-users at specific locations listed below:
Signup & Contact Information
Aminutepay requires customers to provide personal information such as their name, phone number, email address, and company information (if applicable) in order to sign up for the service. This information is used to grant access to the software services and to communicate any relevant news and information. Additional information may be requested about the customer’s business, such as its size, revenues, number of clients, and the customer’s position in the company. This is used to determine what services are most appropriate.
Cookies
Cookies are used on the website to collect information and improve products and services.

Third-party cookies may be used by advertisement partners to track results of ad campaigns and remarket the software services on other websites.

Location-based information may be requested and tracked from mobile devices to provide location-based services.
Mobile Device Permissions and Data Collection
Mobile device permissions may also be requested to access features such as Bluetooth, network, internet, biometric authentication, and camera settings. Device information may be collected, including mobile device ID number, model and manufacturer, operating system version, phone number, country, location, and any other data provided by the user.
The information pertaining to your device, such as its ID number, model, manufacturer, operating system version, phone number, country, location, and any other optional data you provide, may be collected by the application.

Data collected from social networking sites includes user information such as name, social network username, location, gender, birth date, email address, profile picture, and publicly available data for contacts.

Log Files and Clear Gifs
To analyze trends, administer the site, track user movements in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use, our servers use log files, similar to most websites.
Clear gifs, which are small graphics with a unique identifier, are used to track the online movements of website users. Clear gifs and cookies are similar in function, but clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller, approximately the size of the period at the end of this sentence. These technologies can be employed to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. Some browsers may have their own management tools for removing these types of tracking technologies.
Use of Customer Information
The collection of personal information is solely intended for the configuration and upkeep of Software Services, providing customer assistance, handling invoice payments, and communicating information regarding accounts, features, and benefits. Aminutepay will utilize personal information only for managing accounts, offering services, and responding to sales and marketing inquiries. Such information is confined to systems designated for internal use by Aminutepay, as per the policy.
SMS Marketing
Regarding SMS Marketing, we will only use the information that you have given your consent to share for the purpose of sending you account updates, marketing offers, transactional texts, and review requests. The opt-in data and consent for receiving text messages will not be disclosed to any third party, except for messaging partners, for the purpose of enabling and operating our text messaging program.
Terms
These are the terms and conditions for Aminutepay’s SMS marketing service. By agreeing to receive these messages, you consent to receive recurring text notifications for your order, abandoned checkout reminders, text marketing offers, and transactional texts, including requests for reviews. Even if your mobile number is registered on any state or federal do-not-call list, you agree to receive these messages. Consent is not a condition of purchase.
If you want to unsubscribe from the service, you can reply with STOP to any message or use the unsubscribe link provided in the messages. Using alternative words or requests to unsubscribe will not be considered a reasonable means of opting out. Although the service is free, you will be responsible for all charges and fees associated with text messaging imposed by your wireless provider. Message and data rates may apply.

Aminutepay’s Integrated Customers utilize the company’s systems and applications to provide their own Software Services to their clients. This includes the management of Customer Information, information related to their clients, and Archival Information, which are all subject to the terms and conditions laid out in the Privacy Policy and other relevant agreements. The purpose of collecting this Personal Information is to facilitate the administration of Software Services and payment processing.
Aminutepay will store the Integrated Customer Information for as long as is necessary to continue providing services to their partners. Integrated partners are responsible for obtaining consent from their clients and managing any Personal Information collected during the course of their business. The individual clients own their own data, which can include Personal Information, and partners use the Software Service to manage it. Aminutepay only processes Personal Information for the purpose of providing their services, such as client names, contact information, and billing information. While the application only collects the necessary Personal Data, partners may collect additional information through their own forms.
Aminutepay will not engage in any direct communication with their customer’s clients except at the direction of the customer, and will not share any customer information without express written consent or as required by law. It is the responsibility of partners to obtain proper consent for the collection and management of data, including Personal Information, from third parties such as their clients. They must also ensure that all data is collected in a fair and lawful manner, and keep their clients’ Personal Information updated and accessible. Any inquiries regarding Personal Information collected by third-party organizations should be directed to them directly.
