More about payment card information:

Although users can submit credit card or other payment card information to pay for a service through the Quasa Connect, Quasa does not receive this information itself. Payment card information is transmitted directly to a third-party payment card processor – Payment Provider, through an Internet connection secured by industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption technology Payment Provider then communicates to Quasa whether your payment has cleared, but does not provide payment card information to Quasa.

Surveys

You may, at your choice, complete surveys on the Quasa Connect or distributed by Quasa about, for example, your level of satisfaction with the Quasa Connect, your engagement with the Quasa Connect, and your awareness of Quasa Connect features. In some cases, we may link the information you provide in the survey with Personal Information in your Quasa account, such as your name or email address. When linked to Personal Information, your survey information becomes Personal Information too.

b) Information We Collect Through Technology

We collect information through technology to enhance our ability to serve you. When you access and use the Quasa Connect, or contact Quasa or its third-party service providers, Quasa and, in some cases, our third-party service providers collect information about you or how you interact with the Quasa Connect. We describe below a few of the methods we use to collect information through technology.

When you visit the Quasa Connect, we collect your Internet Protocol (IP) address. An IP address is often associated with the portal you used to enter the Internet, like your Internet service provider (ISP), company, association, or university. While an IP address may reveal your ISP or geographic area, we cannot determine your identity solely based upon your IP address. However, we may link the last IP address you used to access the Quasa Connect to Personal Information you provide us. Where, according to local law, IP addresses and the like are considered Personal Information, we treat them as such.

We may also collect a unique identifier for your computer, mobile device, or other device used to access the Quasa Connect ("Device Identifier"). A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to the device you used to access the Quasa Connect. We may link the Device Identifier to other information about your visit, such as what pages you viewed, and to Personal Information you provide us, such as your name. In addition to these methods, we may also collect information about how you interact with the Quasa Connect through advertising partners and data enrichment tools.

Web Beacons

We may include small graphic images or other web programming code, called web beacons (also known as "pixel tags", "web bugs" or "clear GIFs"), in our web and mobile pages and messages. The web beacons are minute graphics with a unique identifier. They are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored in a user's computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Web beacons help us better manage content on the the Quasa Connect by informing us what content is effective, monitoring how users navigate the the Quasa Connect, counting users of the the Quasa Connect, and counting how many e-mails sent by us were actually opened.

Your 'Do Not Track' Browser Setting

We do not support the Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting. DNT is a preference you can set in your browser's settings to let the websites you visit know that you do not want the websites collecting your Personal Information.

We do track your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. For example, we use web beacons to help us determine what links or advertisers brought you to our Site. We also use third-party service providers to display advertisements to you on other websites based on your activities while on the Quasa Connect.

When you use the App, the App may automatically collect and store some or all of the following information from your mobile device ("Mobile Device Information"), including, but not limited to:

• - The type of Internet browsers you use with the App.
• - Your preferred country site.
• - Your mobile operating system.
• - Your phone number or other identifiers assigned to your mobile device, including: The IP address of your mobile device, The manufacturer and model of your mobile device

We may also collect information about how you use the App, such as the amount of time you spend using the App, how many times you use a specific feature of the App over a given time period, how often you use the App, and actions you take in the App. In addition, we may gather information about the website from which you downloaded the App to help us determine what App download site is most effective (collectively “App Usage Information”).

We may link your Mobile Device Information and App Usage Information to Personal Information you have provided us, in which case we will treat the combined information as Personal Information.

Location Tracking

If you are using Quasa Connect, we may collect your geographic location by using Global Positioning System (GPS) information sent to us from the App.

d) Information Third Parties Provide About You

Conversion Tracking: We may supplement the information we collect about you through Quasa Connect with records received from third parties in order to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you, and to offer you information that we believe may be of interest to you. For example, websites on which we have placed advertisements, such as Google, may tell us which ads about Quasa you clicked. This is often called "conversion tracking".

Recording Phone Calls: Selected third-parties, including those who may assist in providing customer service support, may monitor and/or record the contents of phone calls made through or in relation to Quasa Connect, after notice to you and with your consent.

Social Networking Sites: If you login to Quasa Connect through a social networking site, such as Facebook, we may collect your Facebook authentication token and account identification number and use that information to provide you with access to your account on Quasa Connect.

We will apply this Privacy Policy to any Personal Information received from third parties, unless we have disclosed otherwise.

e) Information You Provide to a Third Party

Quasa Connect includes links from Quasa Connect to sites or applications operated by third parties ("Third-Party Sites") and plug-ins (such as Twitter buttons) from Third-Party Sites.

For example, service professionals may be directed to a Third Party Site, such as Sumsub.com, so that the Third Party Site can conduct a background check. The Third Party Site may ask the service professional for identifying information to conduct the background check.

Some Third-Party Sites link to Quasa and share information with Quasa.

Quasa does not control any Third-Party Sites, and is not responsible for any information they may collect. The information collection practices of a Third-Party Site are governed by that site's privacy policy.
