ACHWorks and VCI (VeriCheck) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. You will see VCI referenced throughout because we are governed by their compliance standards, This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) describes how we collect, use, and share personal information for our commercial and business purposes. It also explains related rights and choices you may have.
This Policy does not govern our handling of personal information that is subject to federal laws regulating financial services that are primarily for personal, family or household use. For information about how we handle that information and your related rights, please see our Consumer Privacy Notice.

If you have a relationship with a third party organization that you believe is our partner, please consult that third party’s privacy policies.
2. What Is Personal Information?
Laws in different areas may define “personal information” differently. But generally, your “personal information” includes your unique identifiers (full name, phone number, email address, etc.); and information about your characteristics, conditions or behavior that is associated with one of your identifiers or could reasonably be linked to you
“Non-personal information,” on the other hand, has been aggregated, anonymized or de-identified so that it can’t reasonably be linked to an individual.

8.1 Data Security
In order to safeguard personal information against unauthorized access, removal, theft, or disclosure, we strive to use reasonable security measures appropriate to the nature of the information. Unfortunately, in our increasingly connected digital world, no one can guarantee perfect data security, and we cannot promise that our measures will always prevent a breach of personal information. Should we detect such a breach, we will promptly take remedial measures and notify affected individuals, third parties and law enforcement agencies as required by applicable law.
We encourage you to help maximize security by applying your own personal security measures.
For more information about what you can do to protect your data, please see the tips and resources offered by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission at https://consumer.ftc.gov/identity-theft-and-online-security/online-privacy-and-security and the California Attorney General at https://www.oag.ca.gov/privacy/consumer-privacy-resources.
8.2 Email And Use Of Online Forms
If you are communicating to us by email, please be aware that your transmission is not necessarily secure against interception and could be read by third parties. However, if you use one of our online forms to communicate with us, those forms are encrypted. If you are sending us information that is sensitive, such as your bank account number, a charge card or debit card number or social security number, you should send your correspondence to us via postal mail to VCI, 19752 MacArthur Blvd., Suite 100, Irvine, CA 92612, or contact us at (877) 206-9167.

Your browser may offer a Do Not Track (DNT) setting.

We don’t currently respond to these signals. because there is not yet a common understanding of how to process them or a consensus on what “tracking” means.
