Understanding the Authentication Process
By default, Facebook requires 3rd party application developers, like Payvment, to ask the user to authorize applications in order to access basic information that is available publicly or by default on Facebook. The authentication pop up is only displayed the first time that you interact with the application and Payvment does not store this information.
When you come to a Payvment store, you may see areas that are obscured with buttons on them like this:

If you want to see what your friends like, when you click that button, you will be asked for basic permissions:

Your information is only used to create a better shopping experience based on your social information. These permissions are not requirements to shop but are required to complete a purchase.
We also only ask for what we need - and once you have allowed these permissions, we do not have to ask for them again.
If you have any additional questions, we're available 24/7 at http://support.payvment.com.
