XIII. CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by email or through a notice on our website homepage.
Your privacy is important to us. This Online Privacy Policy explains how we collect, share, use, and protect information when you visit or use this website (“Online Services). This policy covers Collective Liquidity’s Online Services as well as any interactions you may have while viewing content provided through one of Collective Liquidity’s digital advertising campaigns.
As you review this Online Privacy Policy, here are a few general principles to keep in mind:
Personal Information
When you visit or use our Online Services, we may collect personal information from or about you such as your name, email address, mailing address, telephone number(s), account numbers, username and password. We may also collect social security numbers, driver’s license numbers (or comparable) when you provide such information while using our Online Services and where we believe it is reasonably required for ordinary business purposes.
Usage and Other Information
In addition to the personal information described above, we may collect certain information about your use of our Online Services. For example, we may capture the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Online Services, the type of operating system and browser you use, and information about the site you came from, the parts of our online service you access, and the site you visit next. We or our third-party partners may also use cookies, web beacons or other technologies to collect and store other information about your visit to, or use of, our Online Services. In addition, we may later associate the usage and other information we collect online with personal information about you.
Additional Sources of Information
We may also collect information about you from additional online and offline sources including from co-branded partner sites or commercially available third-party sources, such as credit reporting agencies when we process applications on behalf of WebBank. We may combine this information with the personal and other information we have collected about you under this Online Privacy Policy.
We may also use data that we collect on an aggregate or anonymous basis (such that it does not identify any individual customers) for various business purposes, where permissible under applicable laws and regulations.
We may share the information we collect from and about you with our affiliates and other third parties. For example, we may share your information with:
Where appropriate, we will limit sharing of your information in accordance with the choices you have provided us in response to either our Collective Liquidity Privacy Notice or the WebBank Privacy Notice.
We may share anonymous or aggregated information with third parties to help deliver content that is tailored to the users of our Online Services and for other purposes.
We, or our service providers, and other companies we work with may deploy and use cookies, web beacons, local shared objects and other tracking technologies for various purposes, such as fraud prevention and monitoring our advertising and marketing campaign performance. Some of these tracking tools may detect characteristics or settings of the specific device you use to access our Online Services.
“Cookies” are small amounts of data a website can send to a visitor’s web browser. They are often stored on the device you are using to help track your areas of interest. Cookies may also enable us or our service providers and other companies we work with to relate your use of our Online Services over time to customize your experience. Most web browsers allow you to adjust your browser settings to decline or delete cookies but doing so may degrade your experience with our Online Services.
Clear GIFs, pixel tags or web beacons—which are typically one-pixel, transparent images located on a webpage or in an email or other message—or similar technologies may be used on our sites and in some of our digital communications (such as email or other marketing messages). They may also be used when you are served advertisements, or you otherwise interact with advertisements outside of our Online Service. These are principally used to help recognize users, assess traffic patterns and measure site or campaign engagement.
Local Shared Objects, sometimes referred to as “flash cookies” may be stored on your hard drive using a media player or other software installed on your device. Local Shared Objects are similar to cookies in terms of their operation but may not be managed in your browser in the same way.
Many web browsers possess a do-not-track feature that lets your browser tell websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. At this time, our Online Services do not respond to browser do not track signals.
Collective Liquidity may provide links to websites that are owned or operated by other companies ("third-party websites"). When you use a link online to visit a third-party website, you will be subject to that website’s privacy and security practices, which may differ from ours. We expressly disclaim any responsibility liability for all content made available to you on third-party websites. You should familiarize yourself with the privacy notice/policy, terms of use and security practices of the linked third-party website before providing any information on that website.
We use reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to protect and limit access to personal information. This includes device safeguards and secured files and buildings.
Please note that information you send to us electronically may not be secure when it is transmitted to us. We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information (such as your Social Security number or account number) to us.
Keeping your account information up-to-date is very important. You may review or update certain account information by logging in and accessing our Online Portal. If you cannot change the incorrect information online, or you prefer to request changes offline, please call us at 1-888-977-5228.
We may change this Online Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will let you know by appropriate means such as by posting the revised policy on this page with a new “Last Updated” date. Any changes to this Online Privacy Policy will become effective when posted unless indicated otherwise.
