How we protect your personal information

We consider the security of your data as a top priority. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

How we use your customers' information

Through Needle, you will provide us with the information regarding your customers so that we can collect them, extract data from them, read, review and interpret them all for the purpose of providing you with insight to empower your business. We will never use your customers’ information to independently market or advertise to your customers unless they are also using one of our applications or services directly. Because you decide how the personal information of your customers will be used, you need to make sure your customers understand how you (and how we on your behalf) collect and process their personal information. You should do this by, at a minimum, posting a privacy policy on your store that describes the information you collect, how you use it, and who you share it with.

Payment information

We may use third-party services for payment processing. We will not store or collect your payment and card details. When you pay, you provide this information directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their own Privacy Policy. 

We use Stripe as our payment processor. 

Changes to this privacy policy

As a company that is continuously developing, we may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting a new version online. Please check this page occasionally to review any changes.

Changes to this Privacy Policy will take effect from the moment they are posted here.
