Who do we disclose the information to (1-5) and why?

Credit card transactions are handled by a third-party financial institution and their vendors, which receive the credit card number and other personal identifying information to verify the credit card numbers and process transactions.
2) Our agents

4) Third-party business partners
From time to time, XpressEDIT may ask if you wish to be contacted by us on behalf of select third parties about their products or services, or offer you the opportunity to be contacted directly by such third parties. We will only share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes with your permission.
