1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small data files stored by a browser. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits, and other identifiers that can help recognize a browser, device, session, or interaction.
2. Categories We May Use
| Category | Typical purpose |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary / security | Operate the site, maintain sessions, prevent fraud, protect forms, and support security. |
| Functional | Remember preferences and improve site usability. |
| Analytics / measurement | Measure traffic, page performance, conversion, and user interaction. |
| Advertising / attribution | Measure campaign performance, attribute traffic, limit duplicate activity, and support advertising. |
3. Information Involved
Cookie and tracking information may include IP address, browser and device information, page and referrer data, campaign or affiliate identifiers, event timestamps, conversion events, and cookie or device identifiers.
We do not place Social Security numbers, bank-account information, or other sensitive application identifiers in advertising cookies, marketing pixels, or advertising-event payloads.
When a loan request is submitted after an advertising click, our advertising-measurement tag (currently Google's) may receive the applicant's email address, telephone number, name, and ZIP code in a one-way hashed form, hashed in the browser before it is sent, so the advertising platform can match the request to the advertisement that led to it ("enhanced conversions"). No such tag is loaded, and nothing is sent, for a browser that has opted out through Your Privacy Choices or a Global Privacy Control signal.
4. Advertising and State Privacy Law
Some state laws may treat certain advertising-related disclosures as a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising even when data is exchanged for measurement or advertising rather than sold as a traditional list. Where an opt-out right applies, use Your Privacy Choices.
5. Global Privacy Control and Other Signals
Where required by law, we process qualifying browser-based opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control. We apply the preference to the browser or device sending the signal and to associated personal information when we can identify the consumer as required by law. You are not required to provide additional information to have the browser signal honored. You may provide contact information voluntarily to help us apply a request to additional records.
Do Not Track and Other Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers offer a legacy Do Not Track, or DNT, setting. We do not currently treat a legacy DNT signal by itself as an opt-out request. We do process qualifying legally required opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control, as described in Your Privacy Choices. DNT and Global Privacy Control are different signals.
Third-party advertising and analytics providers may collect information about your online activity over time and across different websites or online services when their technologies operate on our site, subject to applicable law and your privacy choices.
6. Browser Controls
Most browsers allow users to delete or block cookies through browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may cause parts of the site to stop working. Browser cookie controls are not always equivalent to a statutory request to opt out of sale or sharing; use our Privacy Choices page for those requests.
7. Third-Party Technology
Third-party analytics, advertising, fraud, and infrastructure providers may set or read technologies according to their roles and contractual terms. When a provider acts as our service provider or processor, we impose the restrictions required by applicable law. Third parties acting independently may have their own privacy practices.
8. Changes
We may update this notice when technologies, providers, or legal requirements change. The current effective date appears at the top of this page.
