Developer Policy

This Developer Policy ("Policy"), in conjunction with the Greenback Platform Service Agreement (“PSA”) provides rules that govern access to or use by developers (“you” or “your”) of the Greenback Services. Any violation of this Policy may result in suspension or termination of your access to the Service and/or access to end users’ personal and financial information ("End User Data"). By accessing and using the Service, you agree to comply with all the terms of this Policy and the Greenback PSA.

Registering

To sign up for the Service, you must create an account ("Account") by registering on our Site and providing true, accurate, and complete information about yourself and your use of the Service. You agree not to misrepresent your identity or any information that you provide for your Account, and to keep your Account information up to date at all times. It is your responsibility to maintain access to your Account; you may never share your Account information, including authentication credentials, with a third party or allow any other application or service to act as you.

Compliance with Applicable Law

When using the Service, you must abide by all applicable local, state, national, and international laws. You also confirm that you, your business and any others acting on your behalf adhere to all applicable laws, especially those pertaining to financial data and to data protection, privacy and data security. In addition, you certify that you, your officers, directors, shareholders, direct and indirect parent entities, subsidiaries, and affiliates:

  1. are and will remain in compliance with all applicable import, re-import, sanctions, anti-boycott, export, and re-export control laws and regulations (including all such laws and regulations that apply to a U.S. company, such as the Export Administration Regulations, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, and economic sanctions programs implemented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC));
  2. are not subject to, or owned by parties that are subject to, sanctions or otherwise identified on any sanctions-related list, including but not limited to lists maintained by the United States government (such as the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, maintained by OFAC, the Entity List maintained by the U.S. Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security, and the CAATSA section 231(d) list maintained by the U.S. State Department), the United Nations Security Council, the United Kingdom, the European Union or its Member States, or other applicable government authority; and
  3. are not engaging, and will not engage, in activities which may require or permit any applicable government authority to pursue an enforcement action against or impose economic sanctions on you or us.

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service is in compliance with all laws applicable to you, including without limitation, the rules and guidelines of any system or network that facilitates payments and any security requirements, including under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS), as may be applicable to you.

Security and Data Storage

You are responsible for securely maintaining your Greenback user credentials, as well as any and all API authentication credentials. You must notify us immediately in the event of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your Account or any End User Data. You must encrypt this information in storage and during transit.

Your systems and application(s) must handle End User Data securely and in accordance with applicable laws. With respect to End User Data, you must maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards that are designed to ensure the security, privacy, and confidentiality of End User Data, including the use of modern and industry standard cryptography when storing or transmitting any End User Data. You must also monitor your systems for any unauthorized access, patch vulnerabilities in a timely fashion, log and review any events suggesting unauthorized access, plan for and respond to security incidents and comply with relevant rules and regulations with regard to the type of data you are handling, such as the Safeguards Rule.

Account Deactivation

Once you stop using the Service in accordance with any applicable agreement you may have with us, you may deactivate your Account by notifying us at support@greenback.com. We may also deactivate your Account if you have ceased using the Service for three months; your applicable agreement with us terminates or expires; or as reasonably necessary under applicable law. After your Account deactivation, we will deprovision your access to all End User Data associated with your integration.

Even after your Account deactivation, and to the extent permitted under applicable law, we may still retain any information we collected about you for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in our privacy policy, or for a longer retention period if required or permitted under applicable law.

Suspension and Termination.

We reserve the right to withhold, refuse, or terminate access to the Service and/or End User Data in whole or in part where we believe the Service is being accessed or used in violation of this Policy or any other Greenback agreement, including Greenback’s agreements with any third party partners or data sources of Greenback (each, a “Partner”), or where use would pose a risk of harm, including reputational harm, to Greenback, its infrastructure, its data, the Service, an end user, or a Partner.

We will use reasonable efforts to notify you via email or other method when deciding to withhold, refuse, or terminate access to the Service and/or End User Data. We may immediately suspend or terminate access without notice if appropriate under the circumstances, such as when we become aware of activity that is a violation of any applicable law or when we determine, in our sole discretion, that harm is imminent. Greenback will not be liable for any damages of any nature suffered by you or any third party resulting from Greenback’s exercise of its rights under this Policy or under applicable law.

Reporting Potential Violations.

If any person becomes aware of a violation of this Policy, we request that you immediately notify us via email to support@greenback.com. We may take any appropriate action -- including reporting any activity or conduct that we suspect violates the law to appropriate law enforcement officials, regulators, or other appropriate third parties -- in our sole discretion in respect to such violations.

Miscellaneous

The failure by you or Greenback to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of this Policy is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Policy shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
