Knowing which legal entity controls your data determines where you can file complaints, which courts have jurisdiction, and which country's data protection authority oversees your rights.
Interpretive note: The specific Stripe entity responsible varies by jurisdiction and is not enumerated in the policy, requiring users to consult a separate Privacy Center document.
The policy authorizes Stripe to collect financial identifiers, transaction records, device information, IP addresses, and inferred data about consumers who interact with Stripe-powered services, including people who have never created a Stripe account but have paid through a Stripe-enabled checkout. In some contexts, Stripe processes End Customer data as a service provider on behalf of the Business User merchant, which means privacy rights requests may need to be directed to the merchant rather than to Stripe directly. You can exercise access, correction, deletion, and other privacy rights by visiting Stripe's Privacy Center at stripe.com/legal/privacy-center.
