Please note that we use information that we collect from or about our customers in accordance with our Consumer Privacy Notice, which provides choices about our sharing and use of information.
1. Who We Are
Levro, Inc. (“Levro”, “us”, “we”, “our”) is responsible for the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. If you have any questions about how we protect or use your data, please email us at [email protected].
2. Data We Collect About You

The information you give us may include your name, address, e-mail address, phone number, financial information (including credit card, debit card, or bank account information), payment reason, geographical location, social security number, personal description, and photograph.
We may also need additional commercial and/or identification information from you (e.g., if you send or receive certain high-value or high-volume transactions or as needed to comply with our anti-money laundering obligations under applicable law).
In providing the personal information of any individual (other than yourself) that, for example, may receive payments from us as part of your use of our Services, you promise that you have obtained consent from such individual to disclose their personal data to us, as well as their consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of such personal information, for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

Part of the verification process prevents Levro from collecting such data. If any information is collected from a child without verification of parental consent, it will be deleted.
3. How We Protect Your Personal Information
3.1 We seek to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure using appropriate physical, technical, organizational, and administrative security measures based on the type of personal information and how we are processing that data.
3.2 We use a secure server to store your personal information. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Any payment transaction information will be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS) technology.
3.3 You should also help protect your data by appropriately selecting and protecting your password and/or other sign-on mechanism; limiting access to your computer or device and browser; and signing off after you have finished accessing your account. Although we work to protect the security of your account and other data that we hold in our records, please be aware that no method of transmitting data over the internet or storing data is completely secure. More details about our security program can be found at Security at Levro. If you have reason to believe that your data or someone else’s data is no longer secure, please contact [email protected].
3.4 In the event of a security breach, we will take necessary measures to ensure the continued safety of data and contact affected parties and relevant regulators within a reasonable amount of time about the scope and scale of the unauthorized disclosure, as required by applicable laws.
