This is the Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy“) that governs how we, DailyPay Inc. (collectively “DailyPay”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), use personal information that we collect, receive and store about individuals in connection with the use of our websites, our mobile apps, and features, programs and partnerships which we offer in connection with the DailyPay platform (collectively, the “Services”). We have implemented this Privacy Policy because your privacy, and the privacy of other users, is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains our information practices and the choices you can make about the way your personal information is collected, used, and shared in connection with our Services, and in accordance with our Consumer Privacy Notice.
Unless we link to a different policy or state otherwise, this Privacy Policy applies when you visit or use our Services.
1.0 About DailyPay. DailyPay is the leading fintech provider that enables employees to harness the power of their pay and provides innovative financial products and solutions to consumers.
2.0 Information Collected. We receive and/or collect personal information from or about you in the following ways (we also provide examples of how we may use the data):
2.1 We collect personal information directly from you, your bank, and your employer in order to provide our Services to you. The personal information categories may include: identifiers; employment or financial-related information, such as salary, bank account or employment status details; and geolocation data, internet, or network activity (for security purposes). The purpose for processing each is included below.
2.2 Account. In order to utilize our Services, you are required to create an account (“Account”). We may offer different options to create an Account, including:

Doing so will enable you to link your DailyPay Account and your Third Party Account. If you choose this option, then we will obtain certain information, including personal information, from your Third Party Account.

Accordingly, we encourage you to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each Third Party Service that you choose to use or interact with.

Accordingly, we do not intend to collect personal information from anyone we know to be under 13 years. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 years, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any such information, please contact us.
11.0 Record Retention. We retain personal information as long as reasonably necessary to achieve the collection and use purposes disclosed in this Policy. The criteria determining retention period are based on legal obligations and information sensitivity, security, product research and development, technical functionality, and experience improvement considerations. We specifically retain personal information:
- to respond to or comply with court orders, subpoenas, or regulator inquiries;
- as required by applicable state and federal law or regulation, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, and the Bank Secrecy Act; and
- in response to or anticipation of litigation.
12.0 Security. The security of personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards, including the use of appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards, to protect the personal information submitted to us. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security or confidentiality.

14.0 Changes to this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by updating the date of this Privacy Policy and posting it on the Services. If required by law, we will also provide notification of changes in another way that we believe is reasonably likely to reach you, such as via email or another manner through the Services. Any modifications to this Privacy Policy will be effective upon our posting the modified version (or as otherwise indicated at the time of posting). Your continued use of the Services thereafter means that you accept those changes.
15.0 How to Contact Us. If you have any questions or concerns at all about our Privacy Policy, please contact us at: privacy@dailypay.com.
16.0 Notice to California Consumers. The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) requires us to provide this supplemental privacy notice to our consumers in California. The CCPA provides rights to California residents. California defines residency as (1) every individual who is in the State for other than a temporary or transitory purpose, and (2) every individual who is domiciled in the State, but outside the State for a temporary or transitory purpose. All other individuals are nonresidents to whom the CCPA is inapplicable.
16.1 CCPA Notice Scope. This CCPA Notice and the rights it sets out do not apply to the personal information we collect, use or disclose about:
- Consumers who initiate or complete the process of onboarding to our Services. This is because this information is subject to the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and implementing regulations, or the California Financial Information Privacy Act (“FIPA”). This means that if you have initiated or completed an application for a DailyPay account, this CCPA notice and the rights it sets out do not apply to you.
- Representatives of businesses that seek to obtain our products or services, or to provide products or services to DailyPay.
If your engagement with DailyPay has been limited to visiting our website or communicating with us, this CCPA Notice applies to you because your information is not subject to the GLBA.
16.2 For the California residents to whom this CCPA notice does apply, the CCPA grants the following rights.
- Information. This Privacy Policy explains how we use and share your personal information through the Services, during the past 12 months. We describe the shared rights to notice of the categories of personal information processed; the purposes for processing the personal information; the categories of data shared with third parties; and the categories of third parties with whom data is shared are stated above in “Information Collected” and “Use of Personal Information“, 2.0 and 3.0, respectively.
- Access. You can request a copy of the personal information that we maintain about you.
- Deletion. You can ask to delete the personal information that we maintain about you.
- Correction. In addition to the capability to correct inaccurate personal information identified in “Access/Accuracy” above (8.0), DailyPay will assist your employer or in our own discretion, directly correct valid requests to correct inaccurate personal information, to the extent doing so is neither impossible nor requires disproportionate efforts.
- Opt out of sale of your personal information. You can opt-out using the instructions below.
Please note that the CCPA limits these rights by, for example, prohibiting businesses from providing certain sensitive information in response to an access request and limiting the circumstances in which they must comply with a deletion request.
16.3 Here is how you can submit requests:
- To request access to or deletion of personal information collected via the Services, please email us at privacy@dailypay.com or call us at tel: 1-855-481-3596.
- To opt out of sale of personal information, email us at privacy@dailypay.com. or visit the Do Not Sell My Personal Information link on our website. Furthermore, we offer instructions on how to limit online tracking in the “Online Tracking Opt-Out” section above.
- To verify your identity prior to responding to your requests, we may ask you to confirm information that we have on file about you or your interactions with us. Where we ask for additional personal information to verify your identity, we will only use it to verify your identity or your authority to make the request on behalf of another consumer.
- Authorized agents. California residents can empower an “authorized agent” to submit requests on their behalf.
You are entitled to exercise these rights free from discrimination.
