Information that you provide directly to us. We collect information you provide us when you set up an account with us, use our Service, or communicate with us.

We may also request payment information (such as your card number, expiration date, and billing address). We may also collect any communications that you exchange with us, as well as any information you provide if you take part in any interactive features of the Service (e.g., promotions, surveys, etc.).

We use this information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the Service, including performing background and verification checks as well as communicating directly with you, such as sending you email messages about products and services that may be of interest to you. We may also send you Service-related emails or messages (e.g., account verification, purchase confirmation, changes or updates to features of the Service, technical and security notices).

We may obtain information from other sources, such as third-party background verification information and reference information, or through mergers and acquisitions, and combine this with information previously collected. In these cases, our Privacy Policy governs the handling of the combined personal information. We may also collect information about you that is publicly available.
