Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Easner Group, Inc. (“Easner,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use:

• www.easner.com
• Easner Personal Banking (via our mobile app)
• Easner Business Banking (via our web dashboard)
• Public invoice and payment experiences we host for business users (including card checkout where enabled)
• Related support and communications channels

Easner is a financial technology company. We work with licensed partners to deliver banking, money transmission, payment acceptance, and related services described in our Terms of Service. This policy covers account holders and, where noted, business customers, employees/contractors on payroll, and payers whose data business users submit through collections or payroll tools.

2. Information We Collect

You provide:

• Account and profile details (name, email, phone, country of residence or business registration, credentials, EASETAG @handle, profile photo)
• Identity and business verification data (government ID, date of birth, address, tax identifiers, business registration, beneficial ownership, selfies or liveness where required)
• Financial and transaction data (accounts, payment instructions, amounts, currencies, counterparties, source of funds, payment or transfer notes, payroll run details)
• Recipients, customers, employees/contractors, and collections data (invoice recipients, Terminal and QR Pay payer references, payroll payees, wallet addresses)
• Online-payment / merchant data when you enable Stripe Connect (business profile details Stripe requires, bank or settlement preferences, dispute or refund context)
• Support communications (email, phone, in-app live chat, including voice messages you choose to send)
• Files you upload (for example transfer receipts or compliance documents)

Payers and other end customers may provide (via hosted invoice or pay pages):

• Name, email, billing details, and payment-method information processed by our payments partner (for example card details handled by Stripe; Easner does not store full card numbers)

We collect automatically:

• Device, app, and usage data (IP address, device model and OS, app version, locale, logs, feature usage, screen and product analytics events, session timestamps, deep links opened in the app)
• Security and diagnostic data (authentication events, fraud indicators, error and crash reports, performance signals where logged)
• Approximate location from IP or device region where used for security, fraud prevention, or compliance
• Account-linked product analytics to understand how the Services are used and to improve them – this may be associated with your user account; we do not use it for cross-app or cross-website advertising

Mobile app permissions (where you grant them):

• Camera – government ID, selfie/liveness for verification, or photos you choose to capture in-app
• Photo library – profile avatar or attachments you select
• Microphone – voice messages in live chat when you choose to record audio
• Push notifications – device tokens and delivery metadata for account and security alerts you enable
• Face ID or biometric unlock – processed on your device to unlock the app; Easner does not receive or store your biometric templates

Sign-in services (where you use them):

• Sign in with Apple or Sign in with Google – we receive authentication tokens and basic profile fields (such as name and email) as permitted by those providers and your choices. Their privacy policies govern data they collect independently.

Partners provide:

• Verification outcomes, account identifiers, settlement data, sanctions and compliance screening results, money-transmission receipt confirmations, and card-payment status from licensed financial and infrastructure partners

Wallet and blockchain:

• Deposit addresses, memos, token types, balances, transaction hashes, and related metadata where wallet or stablecoin features are enabled

Mobile app – data we do not collect:

The Easner mobile app does not read your device address book, email or SMS inboxes, or precise GPS location, and does not collect browsing or search history for advertising.

3. How We Use Information

We use information to:

• Provide, operate, and improve the Services
• Process payments, payouts, payroll disbursements, collections, and online card payments through partners
• Verify identity and business eligibility (KYC/KYB)
• Detect, prevent, and investigate fraud and financial crime
• Meet legal and regulatory obligations (KYC, KYB, AML, sanctions, card-network rules)
• Communicate about your account, transactions (including email receipts), and service updates
• Provide support and enforce our Terms and policies
• Measure product performance and diagnose errors through analytics and logging tools

We may use aggregated or de-identified data where appropriate. We do not sell personal information and do not use personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or tracking you across third-party apps and websites for ads.

4. How We Share Information

We may share information:

• With your direction or consent
• With licensed financial and infrastructure partners to provide verification, accounts, money transmission, payments, wallet services, card acceptance, and compliance screening
• With service providers (hosting, email delivery, analytics, support tools, push notification delivery) under contract
• To comply with law, regulation, legal process, or government request
• To protect Easner, users, or the public
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, subject to safeguards
• With regulators and law enforcement as required

5. Service Providers and Partners

We engage partners who process data on our behalf or under their own regulatory obligations, including providers of hosted KYC/KYB, virtual accounts, fiat payments, money transmission, card acceptance, wallet infrastructure, transaction routing or bridging, and regional payout corridors.

When you complete hosted verification, the partner (and any identity vendor they use) processes documents and shares results with Easner. Partner terms and privacy notices may be presented during onboarding. Partners may retain data as required by their regulatory duties.

Key financial and infrastructure partners

Depending on your product, jurisdiction, and features enabled, we work with partners including:

Technology and support service providers

We also use service providers under contract, including:

When you use Sign in with Apple or Sign in with Google, those companies process authentication data under their own privacy policies.

Additional partners and providers may be disclosed when you enable a specific feature or during onboarding. Partner and provider lists may change as our Services evolve; material changes will be reflected in this policy.

6. Security

We use technical and organizational measures – including encryption in transit and at rest where appropriate, access controls, and monitoring – designed to protect personal information. No system is perfectly secure. You are responsible for safeguarding your devices and credentials. Card numbers for online payments are collected and processed by Stripe; Easner does not store full primary account numbers.

7. Retention

We retain information as long as needed to provide the Services and meet legal obligations. Financial services recordkeeping often requires 5 to 7 years or longer after account closure or last activity. Partners (including Lightspark, Noah, Yellowcard, and Stripe) may retain records under their own obligations after your account closes. For in-app deletion steps and what we delete versus retain after closure, see our Delete Account page.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or port your information, or object to certain processing. Financial regulations may limit some requests.

Easner Personal Banking users can close their account in the mobile app. See our Delete Account page for in-app steps, the 7-day grace period, what data we delete or retain, and how to request deletion if you cannot access the app. Business account closure may require additional steps.

Contact legal@easner.com, support@easner.com, or in-app live chat. If a partner holds verification or payment data, contact us first and we will coordinate where appropriate.

California residents (CCPA / CPRA)

We collect the categories described in Section 2 for the business purposes in Section 3. We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. This includes data processed through product analytics tools that may be linked to your account.

You may have rights to know, access, correct, and delete personal information, and to limit use of sensitive personal information. Submit requests to legal@easner.com or support@easner.com with “California Privacy Request” in the subject line. We will verify identity as permitted by law.

EEA, UK, and similar jurisdictions

We process data based on contract (providing the Services), legal obligation (compliance), legitimate interests (security and improvement, balanced against your rights), and consent where required.

You may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object, and port data, and to complain to your supervisory authority. International transfers may rely on safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

For account holder data, Easner Group, Inc. is the controller. For invoice, payer, or payroll-employee data submitted by business users, Easner typically acts as a processor on the business user’s behalf (except where we determine purposes jointly with a licensed partner for compliance).

9. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies on our website and dashboard for authentication, preferences, security, and analytics. You can manage cookies in browser settings; disabling them may affect functionality. Where required by law, we will obtain consent for non-essential cookies.

10. International Transfers

We are headquartered in the United States. Information may be processed in the U.S. and other countries where we or partners operate, with appropriate safeguards where required.

11. Children

The Services are not directed to anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information.

12. Digital Assets

Where enabled, we may provision stablecoin capabilities such as USDC and EURC on supported networks.

Wallet addresses, memos or tags, and transaction hashes may be publicly visible on blockchain networks. Easner and our partners do not control public blockchains.

You are responsible for providing correct wallet addresses, memos, and recipient details. Errors may result in permanent loss of funds.

The regulatory treatment of digital assets varies by jurisdiction.

Digital assets are not bank deposits and are not FDIC insured. Transactions may be irreversible.

For Turnkey-backed wallet features, Easner does not sit in the flow of funds as a custodian or signing party: we do not sign or co-sign user transactions; we do not hold, custody, or export private keys or seed phrases; keys and signing are managed within Turnkey’s infrastructure; Easner only controls product access (who can initiate actions in our UI/API). Product access blocks (verification, security, or compliance gating) are not the ability to alter, cancel, or reverse a transaction once signed and submitted. See our Terms of Service for the full self-custody disclosure.

13. Business Customers, Payers, and Payroll Recipients

Business users may submit customer, payer, or employee/contractor information for invoicing, collections, online payments, and payroll. You represent that you have a lawful basis to provide that data (including employment or contractor notices where required). Business users are typically controllers of their customer and workforce relationships; Easner processes the data to deliver collections, payroll, payment-acceptance, and compliance functions.

14. Compliance

We and our partners are subject to KYC, KYB, AML, sanctions, and (where online payments are enabled) card-network requirements. See our KYC/KYB and AML Policy.

15. Changes and Contact

We may update this policy by posting a revised version with an updated “Last updated” date. Material changes may receive additional notice where required.
