8. Special Terms and Conditions for 3-D Secure, Mobile Payment and Click to Pay

The following provisions apply additionally to Users who use the 3-D Secure, Mobile Payment and Click to Pay services.

 

8.1 3-D Secure

3-D Secure is an internationally recognised security standard for online transactions with cards. Users are obliged to use this security standard wherever possible when making payments. Upon registration in one, 3-D Secure is activated for all the cards in the name of the User and which are related to the registered business relationship of the User with the issuer. Viseca may transmit card information and the user's telephone number to the respective service provider for 3-D Secure or other authentication purposes. For security reasons, once activated, 3-D Secure cannot be deactivated.

 

8.2 Mobile Payment

Mobile Payment enables Users who have a compatible mobile device to use authorised cards for contactless payments and online transactions via the one app or the app of a third-party provider.

Viseca is not a provider of mobile payment solutions, but rather can only facilitate the registration of the card with selected third-party providers of mobile payment solutions. Activation of a card requires that Users accept the terms of use of the respective third-party provider and take note of its data protection provisions. Users accept that Viseca may transmit information about the card, name and contact information such as billing and delivery address, e-mail address and telephone number of the Users to the respective third-party provider of the Mobile Payment solution when the card is activated and used.

Each use of a card through a mobile payment solution is deemed to be authorised by the User. Costs in connection with the activation and use of Mobile Payment (e.g. costs for mobile Internet use abroad) will be borne by the User.

Viseca may suspend, restrict or terminate the use of Mobile Payment at any time. Users may terminate the use of Mobile Payment at any time by removing the cards they have registered with the respective provider.

Before selling or permanently passing on the mobile device to anyone, each card must be deleted in the provider's app and on the mobile device. If the card is blocked or cancelled, Users are obliged to remove it from the mobile payment solutions.

Users acknowledge that the use of mobile payment solutions entails additional risks despite all security measures. In particular, it is possible that data may be misused or viewed by unauthorised persons, which could cause financial losses or reputational injury to Users.

 

8.3 Click to Pay

Click to Pay is an initiative of the international card organisations Mastercard and Visa ("Card Organisations"), which simplifies payment for online purchases. This requires registration of the card as well as the email and delivery address with the Card Organisation. After successful registration, Users can make online purchases with their email address anywhere the Click to Pay symbol is visible without having to enter card details.

Users can register the card for Click to Pay in the one App. Registration requires that the User accepts the terms of use of the Card Organisation and take note of its data protection provisions. Users accept that Viseca transmits information about the card, name and contact information such as billing and delivery address, e-mail address and telephone number of the Users to the Card Organisation when the card is registered. The card and contact information stored for payment can be edited and deleted at any time in the Click to Pay user account.

The terms of use and instructions of the respective Card Organisation apply to the use of Click to Pay. Viseca is not liable for any losses resulting from the use of Click to Pay.

As the registered delivery address may not correspond to the desired delivery address, Users must check the delivery address transmitted to the merchant as part of the payment transaction with Click to Pay. Entering delivery addresses during the payment process does not result in a change to the registered primary delivery address or to the billing address registered with Viseca.

The Card Organisation may further make further developments to Click to Pay or block Click to Pay at any time, in particular if there is reason to believe that Click to Pay is being used fraudulently.

Users can terminate their use of Click to Pay at any time by removing the registered card from the Card Organisation.

 

9. Digital ordering process and digital identification service

The application for a card can be made via the digital ordering process and identification service, if offered for the card product. The requirements for applying for a card are always displayed before the start of the digital ordering process.

By applying for a card via the digital ordering process, Users authorise Viseca:

  • to check and process the information provided by Users in the context of the application review and issuance of the Card and to obtain the information required for this purpose from third parties, e.g. the Central Office for Credit Information ("ZEK"), public authorities (e.g. debt collection and tax offices, residents' registration offices), the intermediary bank, credit agencies, employers and other information and enquiry offices that are provided for by law or suitable (e.g. Consumer Credit Information Office/IKO); and
  • to engage third parties in Switzerland and abroad to provide all or part of its services (e.g. application review, digital identification service, card production, online services), including the associated loyalty programme. In doing so, Viseca may provide these third parties with the data they need to fulfil the tasks assigned to them and may also transfer this data abroad. With regard to the disclosure of data abroad, we refer to the detailed explanations in sections 1.6 and 1.7 in the corresponding Privacy Statement.

Users are obliged to enter all data to be provided in the digital ordering process truthfully and to provide the required documents in full. The use of the digital ordering and identification process requires that Users have a suitable terminal device (e.g. mobile phone, tablet, laptop/computer) with an internet connection. The data provided to the Users shall be kept secret. If unauthorised use of the data by third parties is suspected, this must be reported to Viseca immediately.

As part of the digital ordering process, identification of the User takes place via the identification service, which is system- and process-controlled. If offered, identification can alternatively be done by uploading a copy of the ID document and then manually checking it. The identification process includes the following steps:

  • the User enters the personal data required for the identity verification in the predefined input field;
  • with a camera integrated in the end device, the User takes a picture of his/her ID document and makes it available for use. Depending on the configuration, the solution used by Viseca takes photos of the User's face and compares them with the ID document. These comparisons may be carried out automatically or manually;
  • alternatively, the user can upload a copy of their ID document if offered. Viseca manually verifies whether the copy of the ID matches the personal data provided;
  • if the verification of the card application is positive, Users who have used the digital ordering process in the one App will immediately receive a virtual card. Users who have not applied for the card via the one App can generate a virtual card after receiving the physical card.

Users acknowledge and agree:

  • that Viseca may reject the application or individual applications without giving reasons;
  • that Viseca may contact them digitally (e-mail, SMS, one App) or by telephone. In doing so, Users are aware that communication by e-mail in particular is neither secure nor confidential due to the open configuration of the Internet and that it is therefore possible that, despite all of Viseca's security measures, third parties may gain unauthorised access to the communication; and
  • that personal data is processed automatically as part of the digital ordering and identification process.

For information on the handling of personal data in connection with the use of one, please refer to section 11.

 

10. Intellectual property rights and licensing

For the use of the App, Viseca grants Users a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual, revocable and royalty-free license to download the App, install it on a device in the User’s permanent possession and use it in accordance with the intended functions.

The complete or partial reproduction, transmission in electronic or other form, modification, linking or use for public or commercial purposes of one Web and App is prohibited without the prior written consent of Viseca. All property rights remain with Viseca.

All rights (in particular copyrights and trademark rights) to software, text, images, videos, names, logos and other data and information that are accessible via one or become accessible over time belong exclusively to Viseca or the corresponding partners and third parties (e.g. Mastercard, Visa).
