your application, to evaluate your eligibility and process your transaction,
and to send you information and applications regarding loan consolidation.
These financial services providers may have their own privacy policies on how

by third parties of your personal information.

Legal Disclaimer
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as
required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to comply with
the law or enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions or protect the rights,
property, or safety of the Site, our users, or others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and

servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a
secure physical environment. Please be advised that, although we take every

we cannot warrant that your information will be absolutely secure. Any
transmission of data at or through our Site is at your own risk. However,
access to your information is strictly limited, and not accessible to the
public. Our employees are dedicated to ensuring the security and privacy of all
The Company user information.
Business Transfers
As we continue to develop our business, we might form, sell or buy subsidiaries
or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one
of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in
any pre-existing Privacy Policy (unless, of course, the customer consents
otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that we sell substantially all of our
assets or stock, customer information will of course be one of the transferred
assets.

links, we are not responsible for the privacy policies and content of these

Terms and Conditions will change also. You should check the Site frequently to
see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Policy applies

promises we make, however, and do not intend to materially change our policies
