Notice to California Residents (Click here to learn more about your California
Privacy Rights and for our Notice of Collection of Personal Information).

Consumer Privacy Disclosure

You are visiting a website owned and operated by LendingTree, LLC. LendingTree,
LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “LendingTree”, “us”, “we”, or “our”) are
committed to maintaining your confidence and trust as it relates to the privacy
and usage of your information. Please read below and learn how we collect,
protect, share, and use your information as part of our technology platforms,

(such websites and apps referred to hereafter as the “Website(s)” or “Site(s)”,
whether individually or collectively, or collectively as “Services”) as well as
LendingTree affiliates.

LendingTree’s commercial loan Websites are designed for businesses and are not
intended for individuals’ personal, family or household use. Accordingly, we
treat all personal information collected for commercial loan products, including
information about any visitors to our commercial loan Websites, as pertaining to
individuals acting as business representatives, rather than in their personal
capacity.

Information We Collect

 1. Identifying Information: We collect information that could identify you such
    as your name, address, telephone number, mobile number, email address, and
    Social Security Number. We may also collect this type of information from
    you about others, such as co-borrowers.
 2. Financial Information: We may also collect your credit history, credit
    scores, your transaction history, and credit products, rates, and payments
    in the course of processing any application for our financial company
    partners’ products or services. For additional information relating to your
    choices about financial information specifically, see our Consumer Privacy
    Disclosure .
 3. Other Information: We also collect information such as demographic data,

    bureaus, lead generators and other partners who may have data on your
    financial profile, home, or other demographic information.

    (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and/or
    clickstream data. We may combine this automatically collected log
    information with other information we collect about you. You may choose to
    set your web browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are
    being sent. If you do so, please note that some parts of our Sites may not
    function properly.

    you

Who Do We Share Your Information With?

information sharing practices are set forth in their respective privacy
policies. Pursuant to the contracts between LendingTree and its Network
Partners, if you select a Network Partner through our Services, LendingTree may
also receive information about you from that Network Partner including, but not
limited to, the amount or disposition of your Loan. LendingTree and its Network
Partners may exchange information about you, your loan terms, and your accounts
for the purpose of providing you with information about financial services and
products. LendingTree may maintain this information to assist with litigation,
regulatory request(s), law enforcement requests, internal analytics, marketing
purposes, and any other legally permissible purpose.

respective privacy policies.

Other Business Partners: We also may share information about you with other
business partners who offer products and services that we believe you may be

Other Situations: We may also disclose information about you or provided by you
at our sole discretion:

 1. In response to a subpoena or similar investigative demand, a court order, a
    request for cooperation from a law enforcement agency, self-regulatory body,
    or other governmental agency; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to
    defend against legal claims; or as we reasonably believe is required by law.
    In such cases, we may raise or waive any legal objection or right available
    to us.
 2. When we believe disclosure is appropriate in order to investigate, prevent,
    or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activity or other
    wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights, property, or safety of the
    LendingTree business, our users, our employees, or others; or to enforce our
    Site’s terms and conditions or other agreements or policies.
 3. In connection with a substantial corporate transaction involving the
    LendingTree business, such as a sale of LendingTree or any entity, brand or
    division thereof, a divestiture, merger, consolidation, asset sale, or
    bankruptcy.
 4. In connection with state and/or federal licensing requirements regarding the
    reporting of information contained in the loan inquiries we receive from
    you. You authorize LendingTree to obtain any and all required information
    from the entities with whom you have interacted with in connection with
    LendingTree  in order for LendingTree to comply with current laws and
    regulations as well as with any requests from state or federal regulators.
    This information could include, but is not necessarily limited to, the loan
    you selected and the terms of the loan you selected.

    identifying, such as aggregated or anonymized data, in our discretion, where
    not prohibited by law.

    use the Websites.
 2. The Websites may not respond to Do Not Track requests or headers from some
    or all browsers.

    My LendingTree profile. You may also modify your preferences by clicking on
    an unsubscribe link at the bottom of certain emails sent from LendingTree.
 2. Advertising on third party sites: We may use third-party tracking
    technology. This technology allows targeted advertisements to you from
    LendingTree businesses. Please review the “Online Tracking and Opt-Out

Online Tracking Opt-Out Guide

Like many companies online, we use services provided by Google, Facebook and
other companies that use tracking technology. These services rely on tracking
technologies – such as cookies and web beacons – to collect directly from your
device information about your browsing activities, your interactions with
websites, and the device you are using to connect to the Internet. There are a
number of ways to opt out of having your online activity and device data
collected through these services, which we have summarized below:

Blocking cookies in your browser.  Most browsers let you remove or reject
cookies, including cookies used for interest-based advertising.  To do this,
follow the instructions in your browser settings.  Many browsers accept cookies
by default until you change your settings.  For more information about cookies,
including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage
and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Blocking advertising ID use in your mobile settings.  Your mobile device
settings may provide functionality to limit use of the advertising ID associated
with your mobile device for interest-based advertising purposes.

Using privacy plug-ins or browsers.  You can block our websites from setting
cookies used for interest-based ads by using a browser with privacy features,
like Brave, or installing browser plugins like Privacy Badger, Ghostery or
uBlock Origin, and configuring them to block third-party cookies/trackers.

Platform opt-outs.  The following advertising partners offer opt-out features
that let you opt-out of use of your information for interest-based advertising:

Google: https://adssettings.google.com

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/about/ads

Tok: https://ads.tiktok.com/marketing_api/docs?rid=pywkyi6r9g&id=1688307494867970

Advertising industry opt-out tools.  You can also use these opt-out options to
limit use of your information for interest-based advertising by participating
companies:

Digital Advertising Alliance:  http://optout.aboutads.info

Network Advertising Initiative: http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1

Note that because these opt-out mechanisms are specific to the device or browser
on which they are exercised, you will need to opt out on every browser and
device that you use.

Access. You can request a copy of the personal information that we maintain
about you.

Deletion. You can ask us to delete the personal information that we collected or

We will also respond to requests for information and access only to the extent
we are able to associate with a reasonable effort the information we maintain

request, we will communicate our decision to you. You are entitled to exercise

identity when you submit a request.

Authorized agents. California residents can empower an “authorized agent” to
submit requests on their behalf.  We will require the authorized agent to have a
written authorization confirming that authority.

Notice of Collection of Personal Information. We list the categories of your
