Payday Social connects content creators with brands and pays creators for the results they deliver. Protecting your privacy and the security of your personal data is a core responsibility. This notice explains what information we collect from creators, how we use it, with whom we share it, and the choices you have. This policy applies to personal data collected through the Payday Social platform and related services. It does not apply to information collected through third-party sites or services you may interact with during campaigns.
We handle personal data so we can:
We rely on at least one of these legal bases: performance of a contract, legitimate interests that do not override your rights, compliance with a legal obligation, or your consent where required.
We may share data in these situations:
Service Providers: We share data with partners who help us operate Payday Social, such as cloud hosting services, analytics tools, payment processors, customer support platforms, and email service providers. These vendors only use your data as instructed by us.
Campaign Clients (Brands/Agencies): If you participate in a campaign, we may share performance data or creator information relevant to that project. Personally identifiable data is only shared when required to fulfill the campaign, comply with legal obligations, or if you explicitly request it.
Professional Advisors: Our accountants, lawyers, and insurers may access your data when necessary, under confidentiality obligations.
Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required by law, subpoena, or government investigation, or to enforce our Terms of Service.
Business Transfers: We reserve the right to assign or transfer your information, without notice, to any current or future affiliate, subsidiary, parent company, or as part of any merger, acquisition, sale of assets, financing, or similar business transaction. Any entity that receives your data will be required to honor this Privacy Policy unless and until it is amended.
With Your Consent: If you request that we share your data for a testimonial, content highlight, or social media feature, we will only do so with your permission.
We never sell creator personal data.
We use cookies, local storage, and tracking pixels to:
Some of our analytics and attribution partners may also place their own cookies or use similar tracking methods. These technologies help us determine which campaigns perform best and ensure accurate payouts.
You can disable cookies via your browser or device settings. However, some parts of the platform may not work properly if cookies are blocked.
We keep personal data only as long as needed to:
When data is no longer necessary, we delete or anonymize it.
Data is stored on secure servers operated by leading providers such as Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud. We use encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, regular backups, and internal policies that restrict access. No internet system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute protection. You use the service at your own risk, but we take reasonable measures to safeguard your information.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@payday.social. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. You will not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.
California residents have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act. You may request:
We do not sell personal information. To make a request, email privacy@payday.social. Authorized agents may submit requests with written permission.
Payday Social is the data controller for creator information. You may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe we have infringed your rights. Our lawful bases for processing are described in Section 2. International transfers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful safeguards. Some of our service providers may store or process data outside of your home country. Where applicable, we implement safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure adequate protection of your personal data across borders.
Payday Social is intended for individuals aged eighteen years and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we learn that we have collected data from someone under eighteen, we will delete it promptly.
Our platform or communications may contain links to third-party websites, tools, or services that are not operated or controlled by Payday Social. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing any personal data.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of the page and post the new version here. Your continued use of Payday Social after any update means you accept the revised policy.
