From Visa Web Merchant News:
Effective 1 June 2001, all online Visa merchants must
post their privacy policy on their Web sites. Requiring
all Visa merchants globally to prominently post their
policy regarding use of non-public personal data will
instill confidence in consumers and complement Global
Payment's best practices recently set by the
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD).

questionnaire. If you do not have any version of Acrobat

policy requires all electronic commerce merchants to
post both their consumer data privacy policy and method
of transaction security on their Web site no later than
