Payment processors provide us with a token that represents your account, your card’s expiration date, card type and the last four digits of your card number. If you are required to provide your name and email address to the payment processor, then they also provide us with that information.

    We collect and process information about the Podcasters you subscribe to, the tier of your membership subscription, what benefits you receive and details regarding your subscription-related payments. As a subscriber, if you select a benefit tier with a physical benefit, then you will provide your shipping information, including phone number, so the Podcaster or Toldo can ship you the benefit, or provide updates related to the shipment.
