Your age details You must be over 18 years old at the time
of making an Application but young applicants may be asked to prove
their age as some plans require a minimum age of 23. This information
is not kept private as we have to give your date of birth to our
Lenders with all applications that we choose to process. Applicants
over 70 years of age will be asked to refer to a Solicitor of their
own choice to ensure they understand the commitment being taken
on. We do not however inform relatives when dealing with senior
citizens but you may be required to inform others in certain circumstances.
Informing dependants Dependants including tenants
living at any rented property used for security may have to be informed
by the applicant as their signature(s) will be required by some Lenders.
This is so that they are aware of any rights they may have if your
secured loan is not repaid. Data Protection Act When
you submit an online application to us your information will be used
by us to assess your requirements and not kept permanently on any
of our computers. As Licenced Credit Brokers and Credit Reference
Agents we will decide if to submit the same information to our Lender(s)
or their specialist Licenced Credit Broker(s) who may then decide
to retain the same information by whatever means they choose and we
have no control over this event. They will usually search your Credit
Records with any number of Licensed Credit Reference Agencies adding
details to your records about your Loan Application. Other Lenders
may find records of this same Application now and again in the future.
Third parties, for example your Employer or Bank may sometimes be
contacted by the Lenders to verify the information you provide. You
can ask us to send you copies of any application that you have made
to us or to remove or alter any such application. This service is
FREE. Data storage Loan applications made online
using HTTP or HTTPS (recommended) are removed automatically from our
servers. THE SERVERS DO NOT STORE PERSONAL INFORMATION USED FOR LOAN
APPLICATIONS and no information is stored offline longer than necessary
to reply to you except some details will be kept for marketing purposes
all as explained online before you submit your application to us.
Any data is stored offline and not accessible from the Internet at
any time. Email Information from you or other
correspondence sent to us by email and not by online application is
never circulated outside our premises and kept confidential. It is
not relayed to any other broker, credit reference agency or lender.
If you do not want credit scoring apply by email first and we will
advise accordingly. Signatures Documents sent
to you by post require signatures initially by all parties making
the application. These are retained by the Lenders who will make checks
to authenticate as required.
Witnesses Credit agreements have to be independently
witnessed at the actual occasion when you sign. You will be able to
choose who does this but they must not be a member of your family
or a relative. Most documents can be covered so that third parties
are not aware of your business except that they are witnessing your
signature(s) on a document. Confidentiality We
never buy or sell client information to anyone and do not hawk your
details around to other brokers or lenders in the hope of getting
any deal. We are not a directory or loan finding or loan tracking
service and operate on a one to one basis. |
