My United States Visa (“MUSV”) Online Privacy Policy
(Last
updated
MUSV has established this Privacy Policy
to explain how it protects and manages the personal
information that it collects from you (the customer) online.
1. Consent for Collection, Use and Disclosure
Your use of the MUSV site and/or your registration for
MUSV products and services constitute your consent to the
terms of this Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree to the terms of this
Privacy Policy, please do not use the MUSV site.
MUSV may occasionally update this Privacy Policy.
When it does, MUSV will also revise the “last update”
date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
In addition, MUSV will seek a customer’s prior
consent, by email, for any new uses or proposed disclosures
of information collected from the customer prior to the
change.
MUSV will notify customers by email of changes to this
policy that will affect information collected from them in
the future.
In certain circumstances, however, MUSV will not inform and obtain
the consent of the customer, such as in connection with an
investigation of a breach of an agreement, contravention of
laws, an emergency where the life, health or security of an
individual is threatened, the collection of a debt or in
compliance with the request of a law enforcement agency or a
court order.
A customer may withdraw his or her consent for
collection, use and disclosure at any time by sending an
email to
unsubscribe@myunitedstatesvisa.com.
Please note that, if you do, MUSV may suspend its
provision of products and services to you. When
you unsubscribe, if you fall within the guarantee
period for any MUSV product and you request a refund, the
guarantee will be honored.
2. Accountability
MUSV collects, at the time of your registration and
your sign-on to its web site, certain “personal information”
(information that personally identifies you) including but
not limited to your name, email address, home or work
address, telephone number, and information about your
computer hardware and software (e.g., IP address,
operating system, browser type, domain name, URL, access
times, and referring web site addresses).
MUSV has implemented this Privacy Policy to protect
personal information received from its customers, and to
respond to any inquiries.
The Privacy Policy also provides that MUSV will use
appropriate contractual means to establish a comparable
level of protection for personal information which is sent
for processing by third parties on MUSV’s behalf.
MUSV has designated responsibility for your personal
information to its
Privacy Officer, who
ensures compliance with the principles in this Privacy
Policy. Other MUSV individuals may be delegated to act
on behalf of the
Privacy Officer.

believe that disclosure is necessary to identify,
contact or bring legal action against someone who

or services, or anyone else that could be harmed by
such activities; and |

If MUSV is not able to provide access to some aspect
of a customer’s personal information, it will provide
reasons for denying access such as; that by doing so would
likely reveal personal information about a third party, or
that it is confidential commercial information or
attorney–client privileged communications, or that the
information relates to a breach of an agreement or a
contravention of law, or that its disclosure could
reasonably be expected to threaten the life or security of
another individual.
