debtfunnel.com Privacy Policy

Effective: June 16, 2022

This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) applies to the debtfunnel.com website (the “Website”). This written policy is designed to tell you about our practices regarding collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide via this Website and certain related services. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using, or submitting information, to this Website. This Privacy Policy has been compiled to better serve those who are concerned with how their ‘Personally Identifiable Information’ (PII) is being used online. PII, as used in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person, or to identify an individual in context.

Agreement to this Privacy Policy: By using this Website, you consent to this Privacy Policy, including your consent to our use and disclosure of information about you, in the manner described herein.

Information We Collect

debtfunnel.com (“CMD”) collects both information that may identify a particular individual (“Personally Identifiable Information”) and anonymous information that cannot be associated with a specific individual (“non-Personally Identifiable Information”) from or about users.

Personally Identifiable Information

CMD collects Personally Identifiable Information when you provide it through your use of the Website, such as by completing one or more stages of an online registration, subscribe to one of our services, or by sending questions to CMD via the Website. The types of Personally Identifiable Information CMD collects include: name, physical address, telephone number, social security number, email address, date of birth, driver’s license number and state, information about home ownership, citizenship status, employment information, active military information, amount and frequency of paychecks, and information about your banking account. The decision to provide this information is optional by the consumer, prospect, or customer; however, if you decide not to register or provide such information, you may not be able to use certain features of the Website or other services.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

The types of non-Personally Identifiable Information that CMD collects (either directly, through the use of “cookies” or through the use of a third-party tracking system) include: the IP address of the computer making the request; your browser type and language; access times; information about areas of the Website visited by users of the site; information about the links that users may click to visit on the Website. IP addresses are not usually associated with your personal computer, but with a portal through which you accessed the Internet. IP addresses are not linked to Personally Identifiable Information. A “cookie” is a piece of information a website sends to your computer while you are viewing a website to remember who you are without personally identifying you. We may also utilize single-pixel GIF image files (“Web beacons”), Web server log analysis, and other similar technologies. Such information may be used to track usage trends and enhance the user experience, and may be shared with third-parties.

CMD may share this non-Personally Identifiable Information with its suppliers and other third-parties for the purpose of website statistical and trend analysis. This information is not linked to any Personally Identifiable Information. Information Collected by Third-Parties

CMD may allow third-parties, including advertising partners, to display advertisements on the Website. These companies may use tracking technologies, including cookies, to collect information about users of the Website who view or interact with these advertisements. CMD does not provide Personally Identifiable Information to these third-parties.

To the extent third-parties may place advertising on the Website, such third-parties may utilize cookies or other tracking technologies. We are not responsible for information collected by third-parties in this manner, nor for the collection or use of information by other sites to which the Website is linked.

How We Use Personal Information

We use your personal information and non-personal information for internal purposes, such as to provide you with the Website and services, to notify you of new products or services, and to otherwise communicate with you. You may be contacted by partners, or a similar but separate company on our behalf, or companies with whom we share information for marketing purposes. We may work with other businesses to bring select retail and/or service opportunities to our visitors. Such businesses may include providers of direct marketing services and applications, including lookup and reference, data enhancements, suppression, and validation. We may use your PII to enforce the terms and conditions or perform any other function described to you at the time CMD collects the information.

Credit Implications.

The operator of this website does not make any credit decisions. Independent, participating debt relief companies and marketing partners that you might be connected with may perform credit checks in the form of a soft pull or hard pull with credit reporting bureaus or obtain consumer reports, typically through alternative providers to determine credit worthiness, credit standing and/or credit capacity. A soft pull is a type of credit inquiry that does not affect your credit score or appear on your credit report viewed by the debt relief companies/marketing partners. These soft pulls are conducted to assess your current financial situation and aid in the eligibility process. Please note that soft pulls are different from hard pulls, which can impact your credit score. By submitting your information, you agree to allow participating debt relief companies to verify your information and check your credit. Debt relief provided by independent, participating partners in our network are designed to provide debt relief services to you.

Sharing Your Personally Identifiable Information

CMD may share your personal information and non-personal information with third-parties for the purpose of allowing them to provide or market information about products and services that we think will be of interest to you.

From time to time, we may establish a business relationship with other businesses that we believe to be trustworthy and who have confirmed that their privacy practices are consistent with ours ("Service Providers"). For example, we may contract with Service Providers to provide certain services, such as hosting and maintenance, customer relationship management, data storage and management, and direct marketing campaigns. We provide our Service Providers with only the information necessary for them to perform these services on our behalf. Each Service Provider must agree to use reasonable security procedures and practices, appropriate to the nature of the information involved, in order to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.

We may work with third-party marketing and advertising companies ("Ad Networks"). These companies may collect and use information about your use of the Website or services in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. Advertisements may be shown via the Website, the services, or third-party sites. These companies may place or recognize a unique cookie on your computer or use other technologies such as Web beacons. Our Privacy Policy does not cover any use of information that an Ad Network may collect from you. It also does not cover any information that you may choose to provide to an Ad Network or to an advertiser whose goods or services are advertised through the Website.

Any third-parties with whom CMD shares Information may have their own policies which describe how they use and disclose your information. Those policies will govern the use, handling, and disclosure of your information once CMD has transferred or shared it with those third-parties as described in this Policy or the CMD Terms and Conditions.

We may share personal information and non-personal information with businesses controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, us. If our company is merged, acquired, or sold, or in the event of a transfer of some or all of our assets, we may disclose or transfer personal information and non-personal information in connection with such transaction.

We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We may disclose personal information and non-personal information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties when compelled by law or court order to do so or if, at our discretion, we believe it is necessary or appropriate in order to respond to legal requests (including subpoenas and investigative demands), to protect the safety, property or rights of our company or of any third-party, to prevent or stop any illegal, unethical, or legally actionable activity, or to comply with the law.
