We may disclose personal data you provide to us or that we collect through the G2 Financial Verification Services application/verification process with:
- Service providers: We may disclose personal data to service providers that perform services on our behalf such as payment service providers, analytics providers, hosting providers and advisers. All service providers have entered into legally binding agreements requiring them to use and disclose personal data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with applicable legal requirements.
- Business partners: We may disclose personal data to our business partners for whom we have agreed to provide the G2 Financial Services Verification service. We have entered into legally binding agreements with our partners requiring them to use or disclose personal data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with applicable legal requirements.
- Corporate reorganization: If we enter into, or intend to enter into, a transaction that alters the structure of our business, such as a reorganization, merger, acquisition, sale, joint venture, assignment, consolidation, transfer, change of control, or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, we may share your personal data.

5. Cookies, pixels, and similar technology
A cookie is a small text file that is stored in your web browser that allows G2RS or a third party (such as G2RS’s service providers) to recognize you. Cookies might be used for the following purposes: (1) to enable certain functions; (2) to provide analytics; (3) to store your preferences; and (4) to enable ad delivery and behavioral advertising. Cookies can either be “session cookies” or “persistent cookies”. A session cookie expires automatically when you close your browser. A persistent cookie will remain until it expires, or you delete your cookies. Expiration dates are set in the cookies themselves; some may expire after a few minutes while others may expire after multiple years. Cookies placed by the website you’re visiting are sometimes called “first-party cookies”, while cookies placed by other companies are sometimes called “third-party cookies.”
In the EEA and the UK, we only use cookies that are not strictly necessary (for example, analytics, functional or advertising cookies) with your prior consent. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time via [“Manage Cookies”] or adjusting your browser settings.
When you access and/or use the website, G2RS or a third party may place a number of cookies in your browser. Some of the cookies will only be used if you use certain features or select certain preferences, and some cookies will always be used. Each cookie serves one of four different purposes:
- Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personal identifiable information.
- Targeting cookies: These cookies may be set through the website by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not store personal data directly but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
- Performance cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of the website. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the website. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
- Functional cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to the website’s pages. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly.
We use additional technologies to help track user activities and preferences. For example, we use web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixel tags or web bugs). Web beacons are tiny graphics (about the size of period) with a unique identifier that are embedded invisibly on web pages or emails. They are used to track user activities and communicate with cookies. You cannot opt out of web beacons used in webpages, but you can limit their use by opting out of the cookies they interact with. You can opt out of web beacons used in emails by setting your email client to render emails in text mode only.
Finally, we may set cookies that monitor links to our website that we send to you (if you have consented to receiving emails from us). These cookies are used to track visitors to our website sourced from these emails. To avoid these types of cookies, please follow the explanation below on how to change your browser cookies settings.
In addition, we may use a tracking technology (pixels) in emails to understand how often our emails are opened and clicked on by our customers. If you do not wish this tracking to be effected, please change your email software or service (such as Outlook, Gmail etc.) settings to not automatically download images (to the extent it is not already your default) In some instances, depending on your email or browser settings, cookies in an email may be automatically accepted (for example, when you have added an email address to your address book or safe senders list). Please refer to your email browser or device instructions for more information on this.
Third-party companies like analytics companies and ad networks generally use cookies to collect user information on an anonymous basis. They may use that information to build a profile of your activities on the website and other websites that you have visited.
If you do not like the idea of cookies or certain types of cookies, you can change your browser’s settings to delete cookies that have already been set and to not accept new cookies. To learn more about how to do this, visit the help pages of your browser. Some useful information can also be found here: https://www.allaboutcookies.org/. Please note, however, that if you delete cookies or do not accept them, you might not be able to use all of the features we offer, you may not be able to store your preferences, and some of our pages might not display properly.
6. Advertising (cookie-based) opt-out requests
Where legally required, we will only use cookies for targeted advertising with your prior consent. You may withdraw consent at any time via [“Manage Cookies”]. You have the choice to opt out of G2RS’ marketing email communications, or to revoke consent to receive these communications, at any time by using the opt-out provision at the bottom of every G2RS email.
Additionally, if you prefer to opt-out of receiving marketing messages, we recommend that you visit the Association of National Advertisers (ANA) and register on their consumer web site. In addition, you may choose to opt out of digital advertising through the NAI’s Consumer Opt-Out Program, DAA’s Consumer Choice Page, or the European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) Opt-Out. By clicking on the “Opt-Out” links below, you will be directed to the respective third-party website where your computer will be scanned to determine who maintains cookies on you. At that time, you can either choose to opt out of the cookie-based targeted advertising or you can choose to opt out of cookie-based targeted advertising by selecting individual companies. Where legally required, G2RS will send marketing communications only after receiving your consent.
7. Links to other sites or services
This Privacy Notice does not apply to other third-party sites or services. If you click on a link or browse to a third-party site from our site/service, your activity and interaction are subject to that third party’s rules and policies. We recommend that you review the online privacy statements on these other sites to understand their privacy practices and treatment of personal data so that you can make an informed decision regarding your use or interaction with their site/service.
8. Securing personal data
We maintain a comprehensive Information Security Program with administrative (policies, standards, and processes), physical, and technical controls designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and accessibility of your personal data, taking into account the nature of the personal data.
9. Retaining personal data
We retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or processed, as described in this Privacy Notice. For instance, we retain your personal data, collected through our services and websites, for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services to you and our customers. When determining retention periods, we consider our relationship with you and your information, the nature and sensitivity of the information, and what is reasonably necessary and proportionate to provide and improve our services. We also adjust retention periods to comply with our legal, reporting, or accounting obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. We regularly review our retention periods and assess our data minimization practices, retaining the least amount of information for the shortest retention period, while still upholding all our obligations.
10. Consumer privacy rights
