This Policy explains what information we collect, how we collect it, and why we collect information when you use the System. We take your privacy extremely seriously, and we never sell lists or email addresses.
This Policy is effective from April 30th, 2022 (the “Effective Date”).
Allow us to introduce ourselves and get a few definitions out of the way, so that this policy is clear and easy to understand. Mazira, LLC dba GoldFynch, the provider of the application programming interfaces (the "APIs") for the GoldFynch web platform (“Provider”), takes the privacy of users seriously. We developed this privacy policy (“Policy”) to describe how Personal Information is collected, used, disclosed, and protected by Provider when you visit or interact with the API services and any part of the System. When we say “you” or “Subscriber” or “Member,” we are referring to the person or entity that is registered with us to use the Services.
Please refer to the API Terms of Service for the meaning of any capitalized terms that are not defined in this Policy.
This Policy does not apply to any other website, product, or service operated by Provider, or to any of our offline activities. It details the specific points which differ from our general GoldFynch Privacy Policy, which also applies to the API Services. In the case of any overlap between this Policy and the general Privacy Policy, this Policy will take precedence. The general Privacy Policy also covers how we treat your information if you also use the GoldFynch website. This Policy applies to any information that we’ve collected, or will collect, about and/or from you in the course of your usage of the System. .
We may change this Policy from time to time. If there are material changes to this Policy, we will notify you by email (sent to the e-mail address most recently specified in your account) or by means of a notice on this Website. If we make any material changes to this Policy, the changes will apply from the updated Effective Date mentioned above. We encourage you to check this Policy whenever you use our Website and services to understand how your Personal Information is used.
We do not treat information of any open account differently from that of any other open account. Therefore, if you object to changes we make to this Policy, please inform us; we will in such a case have to terminate your account with immediate effect.
We gather information from you in various ways when you use the services. The information collected is of two general types, namely Personal Information and aggregate data. As used in this Policy, the term “Personal Information” means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as name, e-mail address, telephone number, address, credit card number, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users), and demographic and other information when directly linked to information that can identify an individual. Aggregate data refers to information such as overall patterns or demographic reports which do not describe or identify any individual user.
We have no access to your code and likewise, you will not be provided access to the code for the API services. All data communication happens across a well-defined HTTP/REST protocol. We do not collect the Personal Information of your customers or users; all requests are routed through you, and only the IP address placing the requests (i.e. your IP address, and not your users’), the specific API request, and a timestamp will be recorded by us. Any other data sent to us as part of the request is volatile and completely erased within the mutually agreed-upon timeframe (defaults Minimum 1 hour, maximum 24 hours)
When you use the System, consult with our customer service team, send us an email, or communicate with us in any way, you’re giving us information that we collect. That information may include (but is not limited to) your IP address, name, physical address, email address, phone number, credit card information, operating system, as well as details like gender, occupation, location, birth date, purchase history, and other demographic information. By giving us this information, you consent to your information being collected, used, disclosed, transferred to the United States and stored by us, as described in our API Terms of Service and this Policy. In general, Personal Data will not be accessed, processed, or shared with employees, subcontractors or third parties without your prior written consent unless: (a) it is necessary to facilitate the services provided through the System (b) such disclosure is required by an applicable law or proper legal or governmental authority (c) we detect malicious data in the information we receive. In such cases, we will give you prompt written notice.
The following are examples of the sort of information we may collect from you.
In general, we use your Personal Information to process your requests or transactions, to provide you with information or services you request, to inform you about other information, events, promotions, products or services we think will be of interest to you, to facilitate your use of, and our administration and operation of, the Website and our services and to otherwise serve you and our users. For example, we may use your personal information:

We respond to all requests we receive from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
If applicable, our GDPR Data Protection Addendum contains further details about how and why we use your information and how we comply with GDPR requirements.
We have employed reasonable physical, organizational, and technical safeguards to protect the information we collect from you to prevent its loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. In addition, highly confidential personal information such as credit card number and password that we request from you on our website is protected with encryption, such as Secured Socket Layer (SSL) protocol, during transmission over the internet.
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. While we take reasonable efforts to guard Personal Information we knowingly collect directly from you, no security system is impenetrable.

Please inform us immediately if your Credentials have been compromised in any manner whatsoever. It is your responsibility to safeguard access to the API service, log out at the end of a session of API requests, and clear any stored data related to API requests. You are expected to protect passwords and security keys assigned to you to protect against unauthorized access. If you have specific needs or obligations regarding any passively-collected Personal Information you choose to enter into our System, please satisfy yourself that such information is maintained at adequate levels of protection to meet those needs or obligations before you upload it to the System.
