We are currently in the process of building and designing a Grading Report function, in which you will be able to access all your cards details through the grading process. this process is yet to be determined how it will be implemented into the PCG service or what the final product would look like.

What is the grading scale used?

We have recently updated the Grading Scale, adjusting some of the final grades names to match the condition of the card. The New PCG Grading Scale: Flawless 10 (Quad 10 Label) Pristine 10 Gem Mint 10 Gem Mint 9.5 Mint 9 NM-Mint + 8.5 NM-Mint 8 Near Mint + 7.5 Near Mint 7 Excellent 6 Good 5 Fair 4 Worn 3 Poor 2 Damaged 1 Authentication

what are subgrades, and does PCG have them?

Yes PCG Does have Sub-Grades! subgrades are specific individual assessments of a card's quality based on different categories or attributes. These subgrades break down the overall grade of the card and give a more detailed, transparent view of its condition, helping buyers and collectors understand where a card may have imperfections. The 4 Subgrades are as follows: 1) Centering: * This subgrade evaluates how well-centered the image or design is on the card, which is crucial because cards that are off-center can be less desirable. * Example: A perfectly centered card will score a high subgrade, while a card with noticeable off-centering may have a lower score. 2) Corners: *This subgrade looks at the condition of the corners of the card. Cards with sharp, clean corners get high scores, while cards with rounded, bent, or damaged corners get lower scores. *Example: A card with slightly rounded corners would receive a lower subgrade than one with sharp, untouched corners. 3) Edges: *This assesses the condition of the edges of the card. Any fraying, chipping, or wear on the edges will result in a lower subgrade. *Example: A card with clean, smooth edges gets a high score, while one with visible wear or damage will receive a lower score. 4) Surface: * The surface subgrade refers to the condition of the card’s face, checking for scratches, creases, discoloration, or other imperfections that could affect its overall look. * Example: A flawless surface with no visible marks or damage will score highly, while a card with surface scratches or print defects will have a lower score.

How is my grade calculated?

PCG has a special formula for working out different combinations of subgrades. This formula has been refined and tested to ensure that a high standard is preserved across all different grade levels. PCG does not take the average of all 4 subgrades, due to some subgrades being weaker in eye appeal than others.

How do I receive notifications about grade updates?

If you are wanting continual updates on the progress of your order, you will have to download the PCG App and turn on notificaitons. This will update you on the progress of your order through the different stages of the grading system.

Is there a mobile app & What does it do?

You can access the download button on the home page which will link you to the correct location to download the App. App Benefits: 1) Order Tracking 2) Submission Process 3) Quick Access to the Pop Report 4) Live update of The total amount of Graded Cards 5) Ability to Track your collection

Use and processing of collected information

We act as a data controller and a data processor when handling Personal Information, unless we have entered into a data processing agreement with you in which case you would be the data controller and we would be the data processor. Our role may also differ depending on the specific situation involving Personal Information. We act in the capacity of a data controller when we ask you to submit your Personal Information that is necessary to ensure your access and use of the Services. In such instances, we are a data controller because we determine the purposes and means of the processing of Personal Information. We act in the capacity of a data processor in situations when you submit Personal Information through the Services. We do not own, control, or make decisions about the submitted Personal Information, and such Personal Information is processed only in accordance with your instructions. In such instances, the User providing Personal Information acts as a data controller. In order to make the Services available to you, or to meet a legal obligation, we may need to collect and use certain Personal Information.

Payment processing

In case of Services requiring payment, you may need to provide your credit card details or other payment account information, which will be used solely for processing payments. We use third-party payment processors (“Payment Processors”) to assist us in processing your payment information securely. Payment Processors adhere to the latest security standards as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. Sensitive and private data exchange happens over a SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures, and the Services are also in compliance with strict vulnerability standards in order to create as secure of an environment as possible for Users. We will share payment data with the Payment Processors only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing your payments, refunding such payments, and dealing with complaints and queries related to such payments and refunds. Please note that the Payment Processors may collect some Personal Information from you, which allows them to process your payments (e.g., your email address, address, credit card details, and bank account number) and handle all the steps in the payment process through their systems, including data collection and data processing. Where necessary for processing future or recurring payments and subject to your prior consent, your financial information will be stored in encrypted form on secure servers of our Payment Processors. The Payment Processors’ use of your Personal Information is governed by their respective privacy policies which may or may not contain privacy protections as protective as this Policy. We suggest that you review their respective privacy policies. We may also ask you to permit us to collect data about you from third-party providers to verify your identity, do a credit check and prevent fraud or assess risk. This helps us ensure that you are using our Services legally, that you are eligible for the Services you want to use, and to protect your data and our Services from fraudsters who may put you and your money at risk.

Managing information

You are able to delete certain Personal Information we have about you. The Personal Information you can delete may change as the Services change.

Depending on the requested Services or as necessary to complete any transaction or provide any Service you have requested, we may share your information with our trusted subsidiaries and joint venture partners, affiliates, contracted companies, and service providers (collectively, “Service Providers”) we rely upon to assist in the operation of the Services available to you and whose privacy policies are consistent with ours or who agree to abide by our policies with respect to Personal Information.

We will retain and use your Personal Information for the period necessary to comply with our legal obligations, as long as your user account remains active, to enforce our agreements, resolve disputes, and unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law up to a maximum of 120 months. We may use any aggregated data derived from or incorporating your Personal Information after you update or delete it, but not in a manner that would identify you personally.

Do not Track signals

Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Tracking is not the same as using or collecting information in connection with a website.

How browsers communicate the Do Not Track signal is not yet uniform. As a result, the Services are not yet set up to interpret or respond to Do Not Track signals communicated by your browser. Even so, as described in more detail throughout this Policy, we limit our use and collection of your Personal Information.
