Depending on the product, payment method, account risk, jurisdiction, enterprise order, fraud-prevention requirement, or Stripe configuration, Finstock or Stripe may request identity verification.
Potential verification categories may include legal name, date of birth, residential or business address, government-issued identification document, identification number, document image, selfie or facial image, liveness or document-authenticity signals, verification result, sanctions, fraud or risk-screening result, and device or network information associated with verification.
Finstock may receive a verification result and limited supporting information rather than the full identity document where Stripe or another approved provider performs the verification.
Verification information may be used to verify identity, prevent fraud, comply with payment-provider requirements, secure accounts, satisfy applicable legal or contractual obligations, and evaluate access eligibility.
We process this information where necessary to perform a contract, comply with legal obligations, protect legitimate security and fraud-prevention interests, or obtain consent where required by law.
Where Stripe performs verification, Stripe processes information under its applicable terms and privacy policy. Stripe's legal role may vary by product and processing activity. Finstock may receive the verification result and limited supporting information rather than the full identity document.
Identity-verification information may be processed in countries where Finstock, Stripe and their approved service providers operate, subject to applicable transfer safeguards.
Finstock retains identity-verification information only for as long as reasonably necessary for verification, fraud prevention, security, contractual record-keeping, dispute resolution and legal compliance. Stripe retains information under its own applicable retention policies.
Access is limited to authorized Finstock personnel, Stripe, approved verification or security providers, and legal or regulatory recipients where required.
You may decline to provide verification information, but Finstock may be unable to activate an account, provide a paid service, complete a transaction or grant access where verification is required.
