Learn about why your name, date of birth, email address and state or territory of residence are required in order for you to use Flexa.

When you first register with Flexa, you may be required to provide your full name, date of birth, email address, and state or territory of residence.

Because Flexa is considered a money services business, there are certain steps that we must take in order to ensure that our network is not used for money laundering or terrorist financing. As part of that process, we are legally required to compare your full name, date of birth, and state or territory of residence against lists provided by the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other government entities.

At Flexa, we believe in preserving your privacy to the greatest extent possible, which is why we encrypt all of your personal information as it is transmitted to our servers, and only retain that information for the minimum duration as required by the law.

If you have any questions about Flexa's privacy policy or screening practices, please send a message to [email protected]. We would love to hear from you!
