How do you get my consent?
When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, or place an order for an online reading, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

4. Payment
Mollie & PayPal:
Our website is hosted on custom-built systems. We delegate payment processing and payment information storage to Mollie and PayPal for credit card transactions. They provide us with the online e-payment platforms that allow us to sell our products and services to you.
Your data is stored through Mollie’s and PayPal’s data storage, databases, and their general applications. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall and it is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS).
Payment Gateways:
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our website and its service providers.

5. Third-Party Services
In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies regarding the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies to understand how your personal information will be handled.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.
