Privacy Policy


GreenZap strives to create a community that is fun, exclusive, and secure for its members. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with all of GreenZap's policies before becoming a member.

Online Privacy Statement

Thank you for visiting the GreenZap® website. Protecting consumer privacy is very important to us. This GreenZap Online Privacy Statement is available to inform you about our collection and use of personal and non-personal information so that you can make informed choices about how your own information is collected and used.

We believe that information used responsibly benefits consumers and the economy, whether it is information we house on behalf of consumers conducting transactions or information we collect on behalf of our business clients. For example, we use consumer information every day to ensure fast and accurate processing of hundreds of thousands of money transfers. In addition, GreenZap strives to better serve our customers by offering goods and services that we believe fit their needs and interests.

GreenZap is committed to our consumers and businesses and strive to develop a long-term relationship by providing reliable services. Central to that relationship is ensuring that we abide by a set of privacy policies, which are outlined below. These policies guide us in the collection and use of information as well as employee responsibilities in protecting your privacy. We use personal information about consumers only in a manner consistent with these policies.

Collection of Information

GreenZap collects personal and non-personal information in order to offer or provide goods and services to our members. We may obtain this information from a variety of sources:

  • Directly from customer applications, questionnaires and other materials submitted to us by customers;
  • From activity on our web sites (including the use of "cookies", discussed below);

Use of Cookies

A "cookie" is a small text file placed on your computer's hard drive by a web server -- which is acknowledged by your web browser. We use cookies for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to the following:

  • To assist us in providing our services to you;
  • To allow you to change pages during your visit to our website without repeatedly having to re-enter your password;
  • To track activity on our website;
  • To determine whether you came to our site from a banner ad or an affiliate website; or
  • To introduce services to you on this and other websites.

You can usually set parameters on your computer that allow you to elect to accept cookies or to have your browser notify you each time a cookie is offered. You can also usually delete cookies from your hard drive. You can find instructions on how to accept cookies, on how to be notified that a cookie is being offered, and on how to delete cookies through your Internet Browser.

Disclosure of Information

GreenZap does not disclose customer information to third parties without first giving customers the opportunity to opt-out of certain kinds of disclosures. There are some disclosures to third parties that are not subject to the opt-out, such as disclosures necessary to effect, administer or enforce a transaction requested by you, to companies that perform services for us, or to prevent fraud.

Recipients of Information

GreenZap may disclose consumer information to companies affiliated with GreenZap and to companies or other parties not affiliated with GreenZap. These recipients include:

  • Financial institutions, such as banks, credit card companies and brokerage houses;
  • Online merchants within GreenZap;
  • Companies that process transactions or provide other services for us;
  • Government agencies and other agencies permitted under federal law.

Consumer Access

We maintain procedures to assure the quality of information we collect and, where applicable, we will inform consumers about how they can access their personal information and make corrections, if necessary. You can access and update your personal registration information by clicking on the "Profile" link. For your protection, we reserve the right to independently verify updates made.


Opt-Out Right

GreenZap may disclose consumer information to third parties as described earlier in this notice. Many of these disclosures are beneficial because they permit goods and services of interest to be offered to consumers or for GreenZap to fulfill on requested transactions. We strive to give consumers choices about how their data will be used. You have the right to opt-out of GreenZap's membership at any time.

If you wish to opt-out, simply select the "Deactivate Account" link located within your “Profile”. You always have the right to change your mind. If you do not opt-out, we'll assume that you have agreed that GreenZap may use your personal information to determine what goods and services you may be interested in, offer you goods and services that we think meet your needs, and for the other purposes described herein.


Permission Marketing Emails

Beyond communications required as part of terms of service (order confirmations, shipping details, etc.), users will occasionally receive information on products, services, specials, and/or newsletters via email. Members who no longer wish to receive our email newsletter and promotional communications may indicate such wish by clicking on a designated URL supplied at the bottom of each email, or by un-checking the designated box located within your “Profile”.


Security is Priority

At GreenZap, security is a priority. We employ appropriate measures to protect consumer information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These may include, among others, encryption, physical access security and other appropriate technologies. GreenZap continually reviews and enhances its security systems, as necessary.


Links to Other Sites

We may provide links to non-GreenZap companies, like merchants. If you choose to link to web sites not controlled by GreenZap, we are not responsible for the privacy or security of these sites, including the accuracy, completeness, reliability or suitability of their information. If you are asked to provide information on one of these web sites we strongly urge you to carefully study their privacy policies before sharing your information.


E-mail Scams

E-mail can be used for sending scams such as a false offer from a company or an alert to a false computer virus. These e-mails are often forwarded with good intention by friendz, adding an erroneous level of legitimacy. If you receive an e-mail that you think could be a scam, do not forward it and delete it immediately. If you receive an e-mail warning that a new computer virus is circulating, check the web site of any one of the well-known anti-virus software companies for validation.


Our Commitment
GreenZap is fully committed to meeting the highest standards for our privacy program and protecting your personal information.

GreenZap limits access to personal information to those employees of GreenZap and its affiliates who need it to fulfill their business responsibilities. Employees must adhere to GreenZap's privacy policies. Employees violating these policies may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Vendors and other outside contractors we engage are subject to our contractual requirements to ensure that sensitive personal information is safeguarded.
