It is important that you read this policy in its entirety to understand the type of information we gather, how we use it, and your rights regarding accessing, updating, and deleting your personal information (amongst others). Please consider this policy in conjunction with our Terms and Conditions.

Please note that if you are redirected to or click on a link leading to a third-party website that is not owned by us, we cannot be held responsible for how they handle your personal information. We recommend reviewing their privacy policy to understand their practices.

Our Service

 

When you request us to search for a financial product or service (by accessing our website and making your request online), we utilise the personal information you provide to deliver "Our Service". We provide an online credit broking service to help you search for various financial products and services provided by our panel of authorised financial services firms ("Trusted Lenders").

When using Our Service to find a financial product or service, we will strive to match you with one of our Trusted Lenders. In order to do so, we will share your information with our Trusted Lenders, who may be able to provide the specific product or service you are seeking. You will be redirected to the Trusted Lender's website to complete your application. 

 

Trusted Lenders

 

When our Trusted Lenders receive this information, they become separate data controllers and may process your personal information for their legitimate interests in evaluating whether they can provide you with the requested financial product or service. For example, if you are inquiring about a loan.

If any of our Trusted Lenders are unable to assist you, they may retain your personal information for a period specified by them (typically 12 months) to fulfil their legal and regulatory obligations, as well as their legitimate interests, for reasons such as fraud prevention and credit analysis. This also enables them to match any subsequent applications you may make during this period with the personal information they hold, ensuring unnecessary credit searches are avoided.

Prior to finalising and submitting any application on the websites of Trusted Lenders, we strongly recommend that you carefully review their respective privacy policies to ensure your understanding of how they handle your personal information. Please note that we cannot be held accountable for the practices employed by any of Trusted Lenders in this regard.
