This information is used to contact the user about the services on our site for which they have expressed interest. This information is also used for billing purposes and to fill customers' orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user. Log Files

This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Green Card US GLOBAL is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site. Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, your information is protected both online and off-line. When our secure application form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on our secure application page, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just "surfing." While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment. If you have any questions about the security at our Web site, you can send an email to admin@greencard-us.org Special Offers
From time to time, Green Card US GLOBAL will occasionally send information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter to users of our Web site. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please see choice/opt-out below. Site and Service Updates
We also send site and service announcement updates. Users are able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about the service. We communicate with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via email or telephone. Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update, or remove that user’s personal data provided to us. This can usually be done by emailing us. Choice/Opt-out
Our users are given the opportunity to "opt-out" of having their information used for Green Card US GLOBAL marketing purposes at the point where we ask for the information. For example, our application form has an "opt-out" mechanism so users who buy our services, but don’t want any marketing material, can keep their email address off of our lists. Users who no longer wish to receive updates from us may opt-out of receiving these communications by emailing us at info@greencard-us.org. Our users' information is NEVER given to any outside parties. Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our homepage so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected. | Privacy & Security General

Questions and Suggestions
- If you have questions or suggestions, please contact us at:
Is it secure to shop at your website? We promise to protect your credit card information. We use state-of-the-art SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) 128-bit encryption to protect your credit card information from unauthorized use. Most browsers will show a lock icon in the bottom status bar on pages secured by SSL (see the example image below). Look for this icon on the web page that asks for your credit card information. You can check the validity of our SSL certificate and issuer's information by double clicking the lock icon on that page.  As an added security feature, we never store your credit card information on our site. We simply relay the information via SSL to our payment gateway, AuthorizeNet, which handles the information at a much higher security standard than regular e-commerce sites. There is no need to worry about your credit card information being stolen or disclosed because of a security breach on our site. What is SSL? The SSL protocol is the Web standard for encrypting communications between users and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) e-commerce sites. Data sent via an SSL connection is protected by encryption, a mechanism that prevents eavesdropping and tampering with any transmitted data. SSL provides businesses and consumers with the confidence that private data sent to a Web site, such as credit card numbers, are kept confidential. Web server certificates (also known as secure server certificates or SSL certificates) are required to initialize an SSL session. Customers know when they have an SSL session with a website when their browser displays the little gold padlock and the address bar begins with a https rather than http. What is a payment gateway and what is real-time credit card authorization? A payment gateway, such as AuthorizeNet, facilitates electronic commerce by enabling merchants to accept credit cards and electronic checks as methods of payment for goods and services sold online. The gateway acts as a bridge between the merchant's Website and the financial institutions that process payment transactions. Payment data is collected online from the shopper and submitted to the gateway for real-time authorization. Authorization is the process of checking the validity and available balance of a customer's credit card before the transaction can be accepted. To authorize a given credit card transaction, the gateway transmits the transaction information to the appropriate financial institutions for validation, then returns the response (approved or declined) from the institution to the merchant or customer. The payment gateway is targeted towards merchants that process Card-Not-Present transactions. In a Card-Not-Present transaction, the merchant and the shopper are not in the same physical location and the customer usually calls in the payment data or keys in the details of the credit card on a Website. All e-commerce and mail/telephone orders are Card-Not-Present transactions. | |  | | | |
