Privacy Policy

Last Updated January 2024

Edenred Pay and its affiliates (“EDENRED PAY”) is committed to safeguarding your privacy. This privacy policy summarizes how we meet our privacy commitments to you. We believe it is important to understand how EDENRED PAY keeps your information private and secure.

EDENRED PAY will not knowingly disclose to any third party your credit card number without your prior consent, except to the extent necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws or in legal proceedings where such information is relevant or where EDENRED PAY believes in good faith that the law requires such disclosure.

However, EDENRED PAY is not responsible or liable for the acquisition of your personal information by third parties without EDENRED PAY’s knowledge and EDENRED PAY has no control over anything that occurs on servers not controlled by EDENRED PAY. The Website may have links to other sites not controlled by EDENRED PAY and EDENRED PAY warrants no level of privacy protection from or by those other sites.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser.

Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Blocking all cookies will have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites. If you block cookies, you will not be able to use all the features on our website.
