Privacy information relevant to Customers
of Deferred Presentment Providers
Information we collect through the FLADPP Site.
If you fill out the "Contact Us" form, your name and other identifying
information will not be sold or shared with any person or organization. Your
e-mail address or telephone number may be used by authorized FLADPP employees
to contact you concerning your comments, questions or complaints.
How your information is used.
When a DPP enters a DPT into the database, including your name, phone number,
social security number, and other personal information we use this information
to help DPPs establish customer eligibility for a DPT.
The identifying information contained in the database for DPPs, which is authorized
under section 560.404, Florida Statutes, is confidential and exempt from section
119.07(1), Florida Statutes, except that the identifying information in the
database may be accessed by other DPPs to verify whether any are outstanding
for a particular person and by the Office of Financial Regulation for the
purpose of maintaining the database.
We do not sell or rent information to third parties for marketing programs
or for any other purpose.
Limited distribution of personal information.
At the direction of a DPP (when the "Submit" button is clicked),
the information provided to us will be processed through the FLADPP system and
the appropriate response will returned to the DPP. All of the DPPs in our network
operate under federal and/or state laws and regulations. FLADPP will treat information
sent indirectly through a DPP in the same manner it treats the information submited
directly through the website.
Security.
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss,
misuse and alteration of the information under our control. The Department uses
the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your sensitive personal
information during on-line transactions. Using this widely accepted form of
encryption, your transaction is secured from your personal computer to the Comptroller's
Office computers processing your request, and the processing computers are located
behind a secure firewall. This method protects your personal information such
as Social Security Number, residential address and phone number, and business
information including financial statements and reports.
Most importantly, this also protects your financial payment
information including credit card and checking account numbers. For added
security, financial payment information is stored in a separate database with
additional security, and only a few authorized employees have access to this
information for fee processing purposes.
This notice should not be construed in any way as guaranteeing, or warranting
as fail proof, the security of information exchanged via Department web sites
Any changes to our privacy promise will be communicated through the FLADPP.com
web site at least 30 days in advance of implementation. Information collected
before changes are made will be secured according to the privacy policy in effect
prior to the change.
