We use your information to provide our services, process applications, and facilitate funding.

We verify identities, conduct credit checks, match requirements with lenders, create anonymized analytics, and maintain platform security.

4. Sharing Your Information

We share information with lenders when you apply for funding, credit reference agencies for verification, identity verification and fraud prevention services, professional advisors involved in transactions, service providers who process data on our behalf, and regulatory authorities when legally required. In a business sale, data would transfer to the new owner. We may transfer data internationally as necessary for our services. We never sell personal data to third parties.
