Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy covers
planet-9.com’s treatment of personally identifiable
information collected from members (hereafter
“members” or “you”) who use the planet-9.com website services, as well as consumer information that
we acquire in the course of our business. This Policy
also covers the treatment of personally identifiable
information that planet-9.com’s business partners may
share with it.
This Policy does not apply to the practices of companies
that planet-9.com does not own or control, or to people
that planet-9.com does not employ or manage.
Information Collection and Use
planet-9.com collects
personally identifiable information when you register
for an planet-9.com account, and when you use certain
planet-9.com products and services. planet-9.com may

When you register with planet-9.com, we ask for your
contact information (such as your name, street address

pertaining to your car if you own the model represented

In the course of processing a payment transaction, we
typically receive from the merchant or a financial
institution information related to the transaction. This
normally includes information about the payment that a
consumer has furnished the merchant or financial
institution in placing the order. We do not acquire any
information directly from consumers through the
www.planet-9.com
Web site.
The personally identifiable information we acquire in
processing payment transactions varies according to the
nature of the transaction and the way in which merchants
or financial institutions are using our payment
services. It may include, for example, the amount of the
transaction, the consumer’s name, credit card number and
expiration date, checking account number, billing
address, and shipping address.
planet-9.com uses the information collected to fulfill
your requests for certain products and services, to
process payment transactions, to facilitate billing, and
otherwise deliver the payment gateway services. We may
also send merchants service announcements, newsletters,
and periodic notices about specials, new products and
services and products and services offered by
planet-9.com business partners. Personally identifiable
consumer information is used to process payment
transactions and for no other purpose.

to children. planet-9.com does not request or knowingly
collect personally identifiable contact information from
anyone under the age of 13.

located in a locked data center. The number of employees
involved in the management of the data center that have
physical access to these computers is limited. We use
firewalls and other security technology to prevent our
computers from being accessed by unauthorized persons.
We also require that any personally identifiable

using SSL encryption. To learn more about SSL, go to:
