2. How Your Information is Used and Shared.
We value your privacy and have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with relevant legislation, including, without limitation, the California Online Privacy Protection Act.
You agree that the registration information submitted by you on this website will be shared with our affiliate companies, our service providers, and, either directly or through intermediary entities, with one or more third-party lenders (collectively “third parties”). We do not take loan applications, make loans or make credit decisions in connection with loans. We are not a lender, loan broker or agent for any lender or loan broker. We are a marketing lead generator and advertising referral service. We do not charge you any fee. The third-party lenders, as well as intermediary entities, have the option to purchase a given lead from us. The position of each potential purchaser may be determined primarily by the price the purchaser is willing to pay for a lead (e.g., the higher the price, the better the purchaser’s position). There is no guarantee that you will be accepted by a lender, and we do not endorse any lender. We are not an agent for you or for any lender, and we do not control and are not responsible for the actions of any lender. Your lender is legally required to provide you with loan documents, and the terms of your loan, including rates and charges. Each lender has its own terms and policies, including a privacy policy. Always carefully review all loan terms and policies provided by your lender and rely on your own judgment as to whether to obtain a loan. For details, questions or concerns regarding your loan please contact your lender directly.
Although our contractual arrangement and applicable law may limit how such third-parties can use your information, we do not control the privacy practices of these third-parties. If you have any questions or wish to remove your information from a third-party’s database, you will need to contact that party directly.
Please carefully consider that third parties may retain or use PII even if you do not use their services or obtain a loan, and you should contact the third parties directly concerning their privacy policies, which may differ from this Privacy Policy.
Your information may also be used to send you first-party and third-party promotional materials. As such, we and/or third-party marketers may target advertising to you by using direct mail, email, SMS text, telemarketing calls, targeted online banner advertising, applications and other means of communication to provide promotional offers. For more on how your information may be used by us and/or third-party marketers, please see Section 3, below.
We may also use your information for data verification purposes, to resolve disputes, troubleshoot technical problems, enforce our agreements with you and to enable us and/or third-parties to personalize your Internet experience.
We may share your information with third-parties who help us in the delivery of the services you have requested and to companies/individuals we employ to perform technical functions on our behalf. These companies and individuals may not share that information with any other third-party or use that data for any other purpose.
Additionally, we reserve the right to append your PII in an effort to provide you with the products and/or services you are interested in.

In addition, in the event we become the subject of an insolvency proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, we or our liquidator, administrator, receiver or administrative receiver may sell, license or otherwise dispose of such information in a transaction approved by the court.
We may disclose any/all information if legally required to do so, or at our discretion pursuant to a request from a governmental entity, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect our rights or property or our affiliated companies; (c) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.

A cookie is a small file uniquely assigned to you by a webpage server when you visit a webpage or click on a link and can assist in associating your information to a unique profile. Cookies are stored in web server logs and also in web cookies kept on your computer, which are then transmitted back to us and/or third-parties by your computer. Information about your account, preferences, your use of the Website and your online browsing habits may be stored. Such information allows us and/or third-parties to recognize you when you return, and track and target your interests in order to provide a customized experience. They also assist with the detection of certain kinds of fraud.
Some cookies are temporary, whereas others may be configured to last longer. “Session” cookies are temporary cookies used for various reasons, such as to manage page views. Your browser usually erases session cookies once you exit your browser. “Persistent” cookies are more permanent cookies that are stored on your computer even beyond when you exit your browser. Your browser preferences may be capable of being modified to accept or reject all cookies, or request a notification when a cookie is set.
Pixel tags and web beacons are tiny graphic images placed on website pages or in emails that allow us and/or third-parties to determine whether you have performed specific actions.

5. Credit Implications.
We do not make credit decisions. Third-party may perform credit checks with consumer reporting agencies or obtain consumer reports, either through national databases (e.g., Equifax, Experian and Transunion) or through alternative providers to determine credit worthiness, credit standing and/or credit capacity. Depending on the way a particular consumer reporting agency calculates your credit score, inquiries by potential lenders to consumer reporting agencies, particularly a large number of inquiries, may negatively affect your credit score. Because people often shop for rates when making a home or auto purchase, credit scores often are adjusted so that inquiries for those reasons that occur with a short period of time as counted as a single inquiry, limiting the impact of the inquiries on the credit score. By submitting your information, you agree to allow third-parties to verify your information (e.g. your driver’s license number, Social Security Number, etc.) and check your credit as may be described in their own terms and policies. You can learn more about your credit scores, and how inquiries can affect your scores, at myfico.com.
