<p>From time to time, we may allow you to provide us with your login
credentials for a site that is not owned and operated by us in order to allow
you to integrate data from that external service to your $LJ::SITENAMESHORT
account. Examples of this include the journal import feature and the entry
crosspost feature. Providing us this information is completely optional. Your
login credentials are only used for the purposes of these features, and are not
used for any other purpose.</p>
+<h2>Financial information and transactions</h2>
+
+<p>You can engage in financial transactions with $LJ::SITENAMESHORT to
purchase enhancements for your account. These transactions are optional. If you
choose to purchase enhanced services, you will be asked to provide financial
information to complete the transaction. There are several payment methods
available, each of which requires disclosure of certain personal and financial
information. The specifics of these methods of payment are as follows:</p>
+
+<p><b>Credit cards</b>: If you pay by credit card, we need you to provide your
credit card number, your full name as it appears on the card, your address as
it appears on the card statment, and the CVN or Card Verification Number. This
information is required so we can authorize and charge your credit card. Your
financial information is protected by industry-standard encryption methods. It
is never stored on our $LJ::SITENAMESHORT's servers: we pass it immediately
along to our processor for the sole purpose of completing the authorized
transaction.</p>
+
+<p><b>Checks</b>: If you pay by check, we need you to provide us with a check
printed with your bank's routing code and your account number, your name, and
your address. This information is required so our bank can transfer funds from
your account to ours. We use this information only for the purpose of the
single transaction represented by the check, however, our bank retains, on
their servers, permanent electronic scans of all checks deposited into our
account.</p>
+
+<p><b>Money orders</b>: If you pay by money order, we need you to provide us
with a money order or international money order (as appropriate depending on
the country in which you're currently living). We do not require the disclosure
of any personal information to use a money order as payment beyond a signature
on the face of the money order. However, the location that issues your money
order may require you to write additional personal information on the money
order. Our bank retains, on their servers, permanent electronic scans of all
money orders deposited into our account.</p>
+
+<p>In all cases, $LJ::SITENAMESHORT collects this personal and financial
information only as necessary or appropriate for the completion of the single
requested transaction. Any additional personally-identifying but non-financial
information you disclose during these transactions will be governed by the
"Disclosure of personally-identifying information" provisions below.</p>
+

<h2>Disclosure of personally-identifying information</h2>
<p>We disclose personally-identifying information only to those of our
employees and contractors who (i) need to know that information in order to
operate the service and (ii) have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of
these employees and contractors may be located outside your home country. By
using this website, you consent to the transfer of your information to them.</p>
<p>If all of our assets were transferred or acquired, your information would
be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party.</p>
-<p>We may disclose potentially personally-identifying and
personally-identifying information when that release is required by law or by
court order, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably
necessary to protect the property, safety, or rights of us, third parties, or
the public at large.</p>
