1. Scope of This Policy

This Policy applies to information collected through our website and Services. It does not necessarily apply to third-party lenders, financial institutions, advertising partners, or other websites that may be linked to or accessible through our Services.

Those third parties may have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them before providing information directly to a third party.

  • Business transfers: Information may be disclosed in connection with an actual or proposed merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale, or transfer of some or all business assets.

We do not describe a data-sharing practice as a "sale" or "sharing" under a particular state privacy law unless the actual practice and applicable legal definition have been reviewed.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

LumoLoans may work with advertising, analytics, attribution, or marketing providers. These providers may receive certain information about website visits or interactions as necessary for their services and as permitted by law.

Where required, we will provide applicable disclosures and choices regarding targeted advertising, cookies, or similar technologies. See our Advertiser Disclosure for additional information about the role of advertising or lead-generation relationships.

7. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to provide Services, maintain business and transaction records, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent fraud, and protect security.

Actual retention periods depend on the category of information, purpose, applicable legal requirements, and our operational needs.

8. Information Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. No method of transmitting or storing information is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
