You may use PaylessBid at any time without registering. When you visit our website, data is saved on our servers in an anonymous format, as is the website that you visit us from, the websites that you proceed to from our site, and your IP address. As this is being done, no personal data is associated with you, and it is collected for security reasons, which help us protect our clients from malicious intentions. However, we do need some personal information from you so that you can actively participate in PaylessBid auctions. We would therefore like to request that you agree to the collection and storage of some of your data. You can revoke your consent any time here. Once you have registered for PaylessBid, you are asked to choose a PaylessBid username together with a password, which then allows you to take advantage of all of the PaylessBid services. Personal data is the information needed to identify you, for example your name, address, e-mail address, mobile phone number, etc. With your consent, personal data are recorded and processed by PaylessBid, in particular: Personal data such as name, address, etc. are used to process item shipment after an auction is won. We ask for your e-mail address so that we can stay in contact with you by e-mail. We need your credit card data to process payment transactions you are involved with. We also use your personal data to communicate with you regarding orders, to process auctions and to process other transactions. Similarly, we use your data in order to inform you of marketing promotions or to enable third parties authorized by us to perform technical, logistical, or other services (such as credit card verification and billing, in case of winning). All data is stored securely on our servers. When you register with PaylessBid.com, you state whether you agree to receive the e-mail newsletter. If you agree, we will use this method to inform you of new auctions and free offers promotions on our website.

Your personal information may be passed on to third parties only if this is necessary to process a payment transaction or a business transaction with our partners.
