OpenCuro payment system gets TRUSTe certification

OpenCuro, the payment system designed with a focus on payment privacy and security, and TRUSTe, an authoritative body of online privacy certification, announced that OpenCuro was granted TRUSTe's Privacy Seal. The certification confirms that OpenCuro is committed to maintaining a high standard for clear disclosure and protecting user privacy.

"Our payment system utilizes random, one-time-use payment codes which means our users can make payments without sharing their personal or financial information –just like cash. When we take payment privacy this seriously, you can be assured that we are just as committed to safeguarding user privacy, and this certification by TRUSTe validates that," said Ian James, CEO of OpenCuro.

To be eligible for TRUSTe’s Privacy Seal Program, a company must pass TRUSTe's extensive evaluation of its privacy practices and remain in good standing by adhering to the stringent requirements of notice, choice, access, security and redress outlined in the Federal Trade Commission’s Fair Information Practices. In addition, TRUSTe provides consumers and organizations an effective, easy-to-use method to resolve privacy disputes through its online Watchdog Dispute Resolution service.
