SQUARE PROFILE - PRIVACY NOTICE FOR BUYER FEATURES AND SQUARE PAY

Last updated: July 13, 2023

We’ve included annotations in the gray boxes below to emphasize certain portions
of our notice and help guide you as you read them. The annotations aren’t
summaries, so please take the time to read everything!

This Privacy Notice applies to you if: (i) you are a consumer shopping at a
business that uses Square and you provide information to Square in order to
receive a digital receipt and email marketing messages; (ii) you have created a
Square Profile Account; (iii) you have signed up to use Square Pay; (iv) you are
a buyer using the Square Go App; or (v) you have signed up to use Square Local
Offers.

This privacy notice explains what data we collect about you, what we do with it,
when and why we share it with others, how long we keep it, how we secure it,
what cookies are and what they (and similar technologies) do, what data is
collected about you by third party service providers, and what choices you have
to control your data.

This Privacy Notice describes how Block, Inc. and our affiliates (collectively,
“Square,” “we,” and “us”) collect, use, disclose, transfer, store, retain or
otherwise process your information when you choose to:
(i) receive a digital receipt after you make a purchase at a Square Seller;
(ii) receive email marketing communications from Your Sellers via Square;
(iii) visit this Square profile portal for buyers (“Square profile”) __(items
(i), (ii) and (iii) are collectively “Buyer Features”);
(iv) sign up for and use Square Pay;
(v) sign up for and use Square Go; or
(vi) sign up for and use Square Local Offers (items (i) - (vi) are collectively
“Square Buyer Services”).

This Privacy Notice also describes the choices available to you regarding our
use of your information, the measures we take to safeguard the personal
information and how you can contact us about our privacy practices.

For details about our privacy practices with respect to the information we
obtain when you use Squareup.com and when Your Sellers use Square product
features other than the Square Buyer Services, please visit here. Squareup.com
also contains information on what other Square product features Your Sellers may
use.

OVERVIEW

WHEN THIS PRIVACY NOTICE APPLIES:

This Privacy Notice applies solely to the processing of information that we
obtain from you when you interact with Square by using our Square Buyer Services
(i.e., when you provide information for a digital receipt, Seller marketing, or
Square Local Offers, use the Square profile portal, use Square Pay, or use
Square Go).

WHEN THIS PRIVACY NOTICE DOES NOT APPLY:

This Privacy Notice does not apply when Square is processing your information as
a service provider to Your Sellers (instead, this other privacy notice applies
in those circumstances). When you shop at Your Sellers, we collect certain
information on Your Sellers’ behalf as their payment processor. For example,
when you make a purchase or interact with a Seller, we may collect:

 * Your signature and payment card information, such as card number, expiration
   date, and security code;
 * Transaction details, such as when and where the transactions occur, the names
   of the transacting parties, a description of the transactions, the payment or
   transfer amounts, and the devices and payment methods used to complete the
   transactions;
 * Any gift cards you purchase or receive; and
 * Billing and shipping address information

We obtain this information on Your Sellers’ behalf to provide them with our
payment processing services. Your Sellers operate independently from us, and
your agreement with the relevant Seller governs how the Seller uses and shares
this information, including with Square. Each Seller’s privacy practices,
including details on the information they may collect about you, are subject to
the privacy statements of these Sellers, which we strongly suggest you review.
If you have questions about a Seller’s privacy practices, please direct those
questions to the Seller.


INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU

We use your data to make Square’s products and services work better for you and
for others. This describes what data we collect about you (which can vary

obtain identifying information about you, such as your:

 * Location information;
 * Payment card information and billing address;
 * Shipping address and preferred shipping method;
 * Transactional history, including payment amount, items and Seller; and
 * Any other information you provide, such as your Cash App $cashtag.

Square profile portal, such as an alternate email address and telephone number,
or information that you may provide to Customer Support, including to the
chatbots (including third-party chatbots) that operate on our Services.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM YOUR USE OF THE SQUARE BUYER SERVICES

When you use the Square Buyer Services, we collect information about your
device, browsing actions, and usage patterns. The information we obtain in this
manner may include:

 * Identifiers, such as Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, online identifier, and
   unique personal identifier (including device identifier; third-party cookies,
   beacons, pixel tags, mobile ad identifiers and similar technology; customer
   number, unique pseudonym, or user alias; and other forms of persistent or
   probabilistic identifiers);
 * Internet and other electronic network activity information, including, but
   not limited to, browsing history, and information regarding your interaction
   with our Square profile portal (e.g., dates and times of visits);
 * Electronic information, such as web browser and device characteristics;
 * Transactional information, including payment amount, items and Seller;
 * Location information, which includes the location of your device, and may in
   some circumstances include precise geolocation data; and

re-enter it; (ii) track and understand how you use and interact with our Square
Buyer Services; (iii) tailor the Square Buyer Services around your preferences;

 * We also may share (within our group of companies or affiliates, or with
   service providers or other third parties) aggregated and anonymized
   information that does not specifically identify you or any individual user of
   our services.

COOKIES, OTHER SIMILAR AUTOMATED TECHNOLOGIES, AND ADVERTISING

Digital cookies and similar technologies help us make our services better to use
by doing things like analyzing how you use our services so we can make them more
useful to you, giving you a more personalized experience, and making ads to you
work better.

When you interact with our Square Buyer Services, or open emails we send you, we
obtain certain information using automated technologies, such as cookies, web
server logs, web beacons, and other technologies. A “cookie” is a text file that
websites send to a visitor’s computer or other internet-connected device to
uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in
the browser. A “web beacon,” also known as an internet tag, pixel tag or clear
GIF, is a tiny graphic image that may be used in our Square profile portal or
emails.

We use these automated technologies to collect your device information, internet
activity information, and inferences as described above. These technologies help
us to:

 * Remember your information so you do not have to re-enter it;
 * Track and understand how you use and interact with our Square profile portal;
 * Tailor our online services to your preferences;
 * Measure how useful and effective our services and communications are to you;
   and
 * Otherwise manage and enhance our products and services.

We set some of these automated technologies ourselves, but others are set by
third parties who deliver services on our behalf. For example, we may use other
companies’ web analytics services (described in the “Third-Party Analytics
Services” section), which use automated technologies to help us evaluate how
customers use our websites. Some of these technologies may also be set by third
parties that help us advertise our products and services to you as informed by
your interests, based on information collected from your activity on the web,
including but not limited to, browsing or purchasing products on or through our
websites or on third party websites or your activity on mobile sites and
applications. This advertising approach is called interest-based advertising or
“targeted advertising.”

Your browser can alert you when cookies are placed on your device, and how you
can stop or disable them via your browser settings. More information on how to
manage these settings on common browsers and devices are below.

 * Manage cookie settings in Chrome and Chrome Android and Chrome iOS
 * Manage cookie settings in Firefox
 * Manage cookie settings in Internet Explorer
 * Manage cookie settings in Microsoft Edge
 * Manage cookie settings in Safari and Safari iOS

Please note, however, that without cookies all of the features of our Square
profile portal may not work properly. If you use a mobile device, you can manage
how your device and browser share certain device data by adjusting the privacy
and security settings on your mobile device. You also can learn more about
cookies and how to manage your preferences by visiting
http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

You can also opt out of receiving interest-based ads from third party
advertisers who are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) or who
follow the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) Self-Regulatory Principles for
Online Behavioral Advertising by visiting the opt out pages on the NAI website
and DAA website.

Within mobile applications, you may also go to your device settings and select
“Limit Ad Tracking” (for iOS devices), or “Opt out of Interest-Based Ads” (for
Android devices), which will allow you to limit our use of information collected
from or about your mobile device (such as precise location data) for the
purposes of serving interest-based advertising to you.

Please also see the “Your Choices” section for other ways to opt-out of
interest-based or targeted advertising.

THIRD-PARTY ANALYTICS

We use other companies to help us analyze our site, track metrics, and advertise
to you. These companies generally promised us under contract to keep data
private but have their own privacy policies that you should be aware of.

Our analytics partners help us with our Square Buyer Services, such as Google
Analytics, BugSnag, and Crashlytics. The analytics providers that administer
these services use technologies such as cookies, web beacons, and web server
logs to help us analyze your use of the portal. We may disclose your site-use
information (including IP address) to these analytics providers, and other
service providers to help us figure out how you and others use our Square
profile portal.

 * To learn more about Google Analytics and how to opt out, please visit
   google.com/intl/en/analytics/learn/privacy.html or
   support.google.com/analytics/answer/181881?hl=en.
 * To learn more about BugSnag, please visit
   https://docs.bugsnag.com/legal/privacy-policy/.
 * To learn more about Crashlytics, please visit https://fabric.io/terms.
   Certain web browsers allow you to instruct your browser to send Do Not Track
   (“DNT”) signals to websites you visit, informing those sites that you do not
   want your online activities to be tracked. At this time, our Square profile
   portal is not designed to respond to DNT signals or similar mechanisms from
   browsers.


HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION

We keep your information as long as you keep using our products and services.
After that, we keep it for as long as we need it to do things like fight fraud,
collect fees you owe, enable Your Sellers to use Square services to run their
businesses, resolve disputes with (or involving) you, follow the law, enforce
our agreements and defend our rights in court.

We keep your information as long as is necessary for the purposes identified in
this Privacy Notice, including to provide you our services, to comply with
applicable law and legal obligations, to defend our legal rights, property and
users. We may keep copies of information about you and any transactions or
services in which you may have participated for a period of time that is
consistent with certain criteria, such as applicable law, applicable statute of
limitations, or as we believe is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable
law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, enable Your Sellers to
continue to use Square services to run their business, to detect or prevent
fraud, to collect fees owed, to resolve disputes, to address problems with our
services, to assist with investigations, to enforce, as applicable, our Terms of
Service or other applicable agreements or policies, or to take any other actions
consistent with applicable law.


YOUR CHOICES

As described further below, you may be entitled to certain rights with respect
to your information. You can see, change or fix information you gave us, control
your location information, or opt out of receiving promotional messages from
your Sellers.

BUYER FEATURES

You may use our Square profile portal to opt out of receiving automatic digital
receipts communications from all of Your Sellers (if those communications are
sent by Square on the Sellers’ behalf) by accessing the portal here. We also
give you the option to opt out of promotional email communications from Your
Sellers through our Square profile portal. You can also use our Square profile
portal to download, update or delete your contact information that we have on
file.

In addition, you may always unsubscribe from or manage your preferences
regarding the digital receipts or marketing emails we send on a Seller’s behalf
by following the instructions in those messages. Opting out of receiving
communications may impact your use of the Square Buyer Features. If you decide
to opt out of promotional communications, we may still send you transactional
communications, such as digital receipts that you request.

Sellers’ Loyalty programs and promotional text message programs that you have
signed up for on a Seller-by-Seller basis are not included in Square’s Buyer
Features. If you have signed up for a Seller’s Loyalty or text marketing
program, and you would like to change your preferences, text STOP to stop
receiving Loyalty and promotional text messages from that Seller or contact the
Seller directly.

SQUARE PAY, SQUARE LOCAL OFFERS, AND SQUARE GO

You may access, delete, or amend your personal information, by accessing the
portal at [https//profile.squareup.com/login], but we reserve the right to ask
for additional information or documentation to verify your identity in
connection with such requests.

To remove (and unlink) your Square Pay Information, click the “Opt Out of Square
Pay” link at the bottom of the checkout page. You also may also opt out of
Square Pay by clicking https://checkout.square.site/stored-payment/opt-out.

You can modify your Square Pay Information the next time you check out on a
merchant site that uses Square Pay. After successfully verifying your identity
by entering the verification code, you can modify your payment card information
by selecting “Use a different card” on the checkout page. To modify any other
Square Pay Information, select “Edit” in the appropriate section of the checkout
page.

If you have any issues removing or modifying your personal information from the
Square Buyer Services, please contact our Help Center. Your access to the Square
Buyer Services may be terminated as explained in the Terms of Service.

If your Square Pay account is terminated or if you opt out of Square Pay, we
will unlink and remove all of your Square Pay Information within a reasonable
period of time. If you have completed order transactions with a merchant that
uses Square Pay, we will retain your Square Pay Information in order to provide
services to the merchant with whom you’re transacting and to comply with
applicable law.

YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION RIGHTS

Depending on the jurisdiction in which you reside, you may be entitled under
applicable law to request:

 * Access to your personal information, including: (1) the categories of
   personal information described above that we have collected about you and the
   categories of sources from which we collected such personal information; (2)
   the business or commercial purposes for collecting or sharing such personal
   information; (3) the categories of personal information about you that we
   have disclosed to third parties for a business purpose; (4) the categories of
   third parties to whom we have disclosed such personal information; and (5) in
   portable format, the specific pieces of personal information we have
   collected about you;
 * Deletion of the personal information we have collected from you;
 * Correction of the personal information we have collected about you;
 * To opt-out of the sharing of your personal information for purposes of
   targeted advertising.

To the extent you would like to send us a request to exercise your access,
deletion, or correction rights for Buyer Features, you may do so by contacting
us at 1.844.213.7377, or through the Square profile portal. To the extent you
would like to send us a request to exercise your access, deletion, or correction
rights for Square Buyer Services you may do so by contacting us by email at
privacy@squareup.com, by writing to us at Block, Inc. (Attn: Privacy), 1955
Broadway, Suite 600, Oakland, CA 94612, U.S.A, or by calling us at
1.844.213.7377.

To help protect your privacy and maintain security, we take steps to verify your
identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying
with your request.

You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf as
permitted under law, though before we process that request, we will require that
you provide the authorized agent written permission to do so and verify your
identity directly with us.

You, or an authorized agent you designate to submit a request on your behalf,
may also contact us at the address below.

You can exercise your right to opt-out of targeted advertising by clicking the
“Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising” link in the footer of any page on our
browser site.

Although some of the information we collect and process about you may be
considered sensitive personal information, we only process such information for
purposes authorized by law, such as to provide you with certain services you
request from us.

We will not discriminate against you if you exercise these privacy rights, nor
will we deny, charge different prices for, or provide a different quality of
goods or services if you choose to exercise these rights.


CHILDREN’S PERSONAL INFORMATION

If you are a child under 13, please don’t use our services. If we collect your
data and later learn you are a child under 13, we will delete it.

Our services are general audience services not directed at children under the
age of 13. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of
children under the age of 13. If we learn that any information we collect has
been provided by a child under the age of 13, we will promptly delete that
information.


HOW WE SECURE INFORMATION

We do a lot to keep your data safe. While we think we have strong defenses in
place, no one can ever guarantee that hackers won’t be able to break into our
sites or steal your data while it is stored or flowing from you to us or vice
versa.

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your
information from loss, theft, and misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure,
alteration, and destruction. Nevertheless, the internet is not a 100% secure
environment, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of the transmission or
storage of your information. We hold information about you both at our own
premises and with the assistance of third-party service providers.

data and process it outside the country where you live.

We may, and we may use third-party service providers to process and store your

European Union, and other countries.
