What it is

Financial Partners are financial institutions, banks, and other partners such as payment method acquirers, payment intermediaries, payment aggregators, payout providers, payment method providers, payment processors, and card networks that we partner with, directly or indirectly, to provide the Services.

Why it matters

Your financial data, identity information, and behavioral signals are shared across a wide ecosystem of third parties, many of whom you have no direct relationship with and whose own privacy practices are not governed by this policy.

Consumer impact

Stripe collects extensive personal data — including device identifiers, IP addresses, browsing behavior, and inferred fraud risk scores — not only from direct Stripe users but also from individuals who simply complete a payment on any merchant site powered by Stripe, without ever creating a Stripe account. This data is shared with a broad ecosystem of Financial Partners, affiliates, and service providers for fraud prevention, compliance, and business improvement purposes, meaning your payment behavior may be profiled and shared across the financial system without your explicit awareness. You can exercise your rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict your data by visiting stripe.com/privacy-center or emailing privacy@stripe.com.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Email privacy@stripe.com requesting information about which Financial Partners have received your personal data and requesting deletion where applicable under your jurisdiction's laws.
