Personal Information Collected by PhoneCardNY.com
We gather customer information that helps us achieve the goal of providing the highest quality products and services. In order to best serve you, we may gather information from you in several cases:
Initially, when you browse around our site, we may collect non-personally identifiable information (that is information which does not by itself identify a specific individual) such as the Website’s Uniform Resource Locator (URL) that you have just visited and which URL you go next to, what browser type you use and what your Internet Protocol (IP) address is, domain name, and specific pages through which you click. This automatically collected data is used to help us improve our Web site and make it better designed to meet our customers’ needs.
At the time of ordering you can be asked to voluntarily provide certain personally identifiable information (that is information containing specifics of who you are) including your name, telephone number, email address, credit card number and other identification and contact information. We request this information to enable us to process and fulfill your orders and keep you informed of your order status or when you want to subscribe to our email updates (only your name and email address are required in this case).

Secure Ordering
PhoneCardNY.com takes every precaution to protect our customers’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and offline. All online credit card transactions made on PhoneCardNY.com are handled by PayPal, the global e-commerce business allowing payments and money transfers to be made through the Internet. When PayPal billing form asks customers to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry – Secure Socket Layering (SSL) – that ensures safe Internet transmission of your personal information. You can view PayPal’s Privacy Policy clicking here. The interaction between PhoneCardNY.com and PayPal is handled by E-junkie («E-Junkie») Shopping Cart for selling downloads & tangible goods. No private information is released to «E-junkie» under any circumstances, because «E-junkie» does not participate in collecting of any of your sensitive information. You can view «E-Junkie»’s Privacy Policy clicking here.
In order to be sure that the information transferred between your browser and the PayPal server is secure, it is important to be aware of the security information available to you through your browser.
While on a secure page, such as PayPal billing form, the lock icon at the bottom or in the address bar of Web browsers such as Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open mode, when users are just ‘surfing’ (could be denoted by green color in the beginning of the address bar).
To confirm this, look at the bottom part or at the address bar of your browser window. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending upon your browser) you can be sure that your information is secure and you can safely enter your payment details.
If you do not see one of these icons, please contact your Internet service provider.
You can also ensure security by checking the URL line of your browser. When the letters «http» in the URL change to «https» the «s» indicates you are in a secure area employing SSL. Your browser may also give you a pop-up message that you’re about to enter a secure area. Most browsers offer additional security alerts as well.
