How does Spotloan protect my personal information?

To protect your personal information from unauthorized access and use, we use security measures that comply with federal law. These measures include computer safeguards and secured files and buildings.

How does Spotloan collect my personal information?

We collect your personal information, for example, when you

  • Apply for a loan
  • Provide account information or give us your contact information
  • Give us your income information

We also collect your personal information from others, such as credit bureaus, affiliates, and/or other companies.

Why can’t I limit all sharing?

Federal law gives you the right to limit only

  • Sharing for affiliates' everyday business purposes – information about your creditworthiness
  • Affiliates from using your information to market you
  • Sharing for nonaffiliates to market you

State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit sharing.

What happens when I limit sharing for an account I hold jointly with someone else?

Your choices will apply to everyone on your account.
