Purse offers a payment orchestration platform to merchants who act as data controllers. The management of personal data associated with the service is explained below.
Purse is a technology company that offers online merchants a SaaS-based software solution that optimizes payment management by acting as an intermediary between the merchant's site and the Payment Service Providers the merchant has chosen to activate. Purse is what is known as a "payment orchestration platform," which allows for the dynamic and contextual display of appropriate payment methods on the merchant's checkout page and provides the merchant with secure access to a back-office, the Payment Manager, to monitor the performance of payments processed by the PSPs.
In providing this solution, Purse acts as a data processor, within the meaning of the GDPR, for merchants who choose to use this payment orchestration solution. In this capacity, Purse implements all necessary technical and organizational security measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of the data processed through its service. Purse engages service providers, who act only under its instructions, to process data in order to provide the service (data hosting, database administration, software development, etc.).
The data displayed in the Payment Manager is data associated with a customer's order from a merchant (customer identity, address, cart details, transaction amount, transaction status, shipping status, PSP used for payment). Upstream Pay does not store any bank card data. This is processed solely by the Payment Service Providers (PSPs) to execute the payment. By default, and unless otherwise instructed by a merchant, transaction data is retained by Purse for a period of 15 months from the date of the transaction.
Any customer of a merchant may, as an individual, exercise their rights regarding the processing of their data. This includes the right of access, rectification, portability, erasure of data, and the right to object to and restrict data processing. These rights must be exercised directly with the Merchant. You may also exercise them directly with Purse, which will forward the request to the relevant Merchant.
