We keep only your card’s expiration date and the last four digits of your card number. This helps you and us to identify your saved credit card(s) when you call us or visit us online.

By participating in any such contest, lottery or promotion, you agree to be governed by those rules, which may vary from the terms of this Privacy Policy.
