COLLECTION AND
USAGE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
- Required Personal
Information: In order to provide and fulfil the Golf Program
benefits, Visa requires the following personal information
(“Required Personal Information”) to be furnished
by a person registering for the Golf Program (“User”):
- Full name
- Country of issuance of the Eligible Visa Card
- Payment card account number (full 16 digit), or “Full
Card Number” of the Eligible Visa Card
- Phone number
- Home address
- Email address
-
The Required Personal Information will be used/processed by Visa,
Visa’s affiliate company and Supplier as follows:
- Full Card Number will have to be entered by the User for the
purposes of Visa’s validation of the User’s card account as
being eligible under the Golf Program. The Full Card Number will
be transmitted via Visa’s proprietary system
(“Phoenix”) to Visa Inc, Visa USA Inc and
related Visa entities in the United States for validation. Upon
validation, User will be redirected to fill in a registration
form. If the Full Card Number is not valid, Phoenix will send
the User an error message. The Full Card Number will be
validated real time by Phoenix
- In the event that the User is successfully directed to the
registration form (which resides in Visa’s Singapore server),
the User will need to fill up all the Required Personal
Information on the registration form except for Full Card
Number. Upon completing the registration form and clicking
“Submit”, the registration form and all information provided
therein will be submitted via an automated process (protected by
“Visa Secure” system” which includes password protection
mechanism) to Supplier (located in Singapore). 。
All Required Personal Information contained in the registration
form submitted by the User will be retained and processed by
Supplier in order for Supplier to process the request for
upgrade by the User under the Golf Program. Visa cannot control,
and User agrees and acknowledges that Visa is not responsible
for, any acts or omission on the part of Supplier in the use or
processing of personal information by Supplier. Users may be
required to agree and consent to additional privacy policies
relating to the collection or usage of personal information by
Supplier to which Visa is not a party and for which Visa is not
responsible.
- In addition to the above, Visa uses the Required Personal
Information to:
- Provide and operate the Golf Program benefits and any
associated services requested by User;
- Analyze usage and improve the Golf Program benefits and
associated service(s);
- Ensure the security and integrity of the Golf Program
benefits;
- Enforce Visa’s policies; and
- Perform other activities with User’s consent
-
Visa may use and/or release Personal Information of any User,
including where necessary with other companies and organizations
outside of the User’s country of residence, when Visa in good faith
believes that such release is necessary to:
-
comply with the law, including laws outside the User’s country
of residence;
- respond to governmental or regulatory bodies’ inquiries;
-
enforce or apply the Terms of Use and any other agreements to
which Visa or the User is subject;
-
protect the rights, property, or safety of Visa, our
employees, other Users, or others;
-
investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal
activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential
threats to the safety of any person or violations of the terms
and conditions of using the Site
-
When a User accesses the registration site or webpage
https://www.promotions.visa.com/campaign/UHNW/index.html
(the “Registration Site”), Visa automatically
receives and records information on Visa’s server logs from User’s
browser or mobile platform, including User location , IP address,
cookie information, and the page requested by User. Visa also uses
session data, collected through cookies and pixel tags, to better
understand how the Site is navigated, how many visitors arrive at
specific pages, the length and frequency of stays at the Site, the
variety of searches of the Site’s database, the types of browsers
and computer operating systems used by visitors to the Site and the
internet protocol addresses from which visitors connect to the Site.
Visa treats all data obtained from the foregoing activities listed
in this Clause A5 as non-Personal Information, except where Visa is
required to do otherwise under applicable law. Visa may provide
aggregate information to Visa’s partners (banks or merchants) about
how Users collectively, use the Site and register for the Golf
Program, so that Visa’s partners may be aware of frequency, numbers
and activities of the Users on the Registration Site as well as
understand how often people use the Registration Site and register
for the Golf Program. However, for the avoidance of doubt Visa will
not make specific identity references to any User in the provision
of such aggregate information to its partners under this Clause
A5.
-
Visa will neither rent nor sell User’s Personal Information to
anyone. Visa may share User’s Personal Information only as described
in this Privacy Policy.

that are linked from the Registration Site, or uses any third-party
services or applications linked to or connected to the Registration
Site, User understands and acknowledges that certain Personal
Information of User may be retrieved or tracked (by automated or
other means) by third-party website owners or applications
developers, over which Visa may have no control and Users should
review such third party website’s privacy policy. Visa shall not be
responsible in this regard, and makes no representation or guarantee
that such third parties will protect the User’s Personal Information
or follow Visa’s Privacy Policy.
-
TRANSFER TO ACQUIRER OR LIQUIDATOR
If Visa or substantially all of its
assets are acquired, or in the unlikely event that Visa goes out of
business or enters bankruptcy, Users understand and agree that their
Personal Information will be transferred to or acquired by the
relevant third party acquirer or liquidator. Users also understand
and agree that prior to the consummation of any such transactions,
their Personal Information may also be shared by Visa for purposes
of facilitating such transactions.

COOKIES
-
The Registration Site may use cookie technology to improve user
experience on the Registration Site and gather data for web site
statistical reporting. The cookie technology that Visa uses does not
capture individual email address or any personal information.
-
A cookie is a small piece of information sent by a web site that
is saved on a user’s hard disk by the user’s computer’s browser. It
holds information a site may need to personalize a user’s experience
and gathers web site statistical data, such as which pages are
visited, what is downloaded, the Internet provider’s domain name and
country that visitors come from and the addresses of sites visited
immediately before and after coming to the Registration Site
website. However, none of this is associated with a User as an
individual and is measured only in aggregate.
-
To browse without cookies, a User can configure his/her browser to
reject all cookies or to notify User when a cookie is set. (Each
browser is different, so User should check the “Help” menu of
his/her browser to learn how to change User’s cookie preferences.) A
User’s experience of the Site may be different if User sets his/her
browser to block cookies.
-
SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
-
Visa uses security technologies including firewalls and secure
socket layers to help protect the personal information that Visa
collects from Users. Visa's policies restrict access to personal
information to those employees and service providers who need to
know the information in order to provide Users with the relevant
services under the Program. Visa uses its best endeavours to
maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect
personal information.
-
While Visa endeavours to safeguard all Users’ personal information
to ensure that each User’s personal information is kept private, as
described in Clause E1 above, Visa cannot guarantee the security of
User’s personal information. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or
software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of
User information at any time and User understands, acknowledges and
assumes this risk.
-
USER ACCESS OF OWN PERSONAL
INFORMATION
In the event that User wishes to access
his/her Required Personal Information on the registration form that
User had submitted for the purposes of rectification/correction,
User may contact Visa through email in accordance with Section I

transfer, and/or entrustment of his/her personal information by
Visa. User may exercise his/her rights of revocation of consent by

using technical means to render such data unusable:

handling of User’s data;

data has been fulfilled; or
- When Visa’s business permanently closes.
