General

This Privacy Policy applies when you access any other Conejo Credit online service or mobile application (collectively, the “Site”), which is owned or administered by Conejo Credit, Inc. We, as the administrator, and our network of lenders, respect the privacy of businesses and their owners or principals (collectively, “you” or “your”) and are committed to protecting the information that we or our related institutions collect from you. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, store, use and protect information that you provide, directly in connection with your use of the Site or indirectly through third-parties, to obtain small business funding products or services available through the Site, including Conejo Credit loans issued by Conejo Credit and/or other related funders. This Privacy Policy also describes your choices regarding your information. We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting a revised, dated version on the Site. By visiting or using the Site, you accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING AN ACCOUNT

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means for you: When you open an account with a financial institution, you will be asked for your name, mailing address and other information that will allow your identity to be verified. Conejo Credit, related brokers and funders may also ask to see a driver’s license or other identifying documents.

Information Collected

In connection with your use of the Site, we collect, directly or indirectly, three types of information:

Information regarding a business (“Business Information”); Information about the business’s owners and principals (“User Information”); and General information (i.e. non personally identifiable information such as website-use information) that is automatically collected as you interact with the Site (“General Information”).

Business and User Information

In connection with providing services to our funders, we may receive Business Information from users, including, but not limited to: business name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, business size, business type, business incorporation date, bank account information, marketplace account information, payment processing procedures, social network data, shipping information, accounting information and vendor service information. We may also receive User Information that consists of personally identifiable information, including, but not limited to: the owner’s or principal’s name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, social security number, and estimated FICO score.

We collect User Information and Business Information from you when you (i) register on the Site, (ii) fill out forms or fields on the Site, (iii) complete an application for a product or service available through the Site or (iv) communicate with us by email, mail, text, telephone, facsimile or other electronic means. In the course of providing services to our funders, we may collect additional Business Information or User Information from third parties, including, but not limited to, referral partners, identity verification services, mailing list providers, credit bureaus, and publicly available sources and may combine this information with information we already have about you.

We may link this automatically collected data to other information we collect about you.

We and our business partners, affiliates, or analytics or service providers use cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by such companies on an individual and aggregated basis.

We also use analytics software to allow us to better understand the functionality of our mobile application. This software may record information such as how often you use the application, the events that occur within the application, aggregated usage, performance data, and where the application was downloaded from. We do not link the information we store within the analytics software to any personally identifiable information you submit within the mobile application.
