Capitalized terms that are not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meaning given to them in our Terms and Conditions.

Notice for California Residents: find more information about your California Privacy Rights and for our Notice of Collection of Personal Information here.

1. Collection of your information

We may collect and store various information about you including, for example, information that you provide to us, information that we automatically collect through your use of the Service, and information from publicly available sources or third parties, as further detailed below. If you utilize our Services to obtain a financial product or service through us, we will use and share any information that we collect from or about you in accordance with this policy, which offers you certain choices with respect to the use and sharing of your personal information. Information subject to this policy is referred to as Non-Public Personal Information ("NPI").
  1. Information you provide us directly

    The information we collect from you will vary depending on the product or service requested. We may ask for certain information such as your username, first and last name, birth date, telephone number, email address, outstanding loan balances, social security number, income, employment history and other details related to your financial situation when you use our Service and/or register for an Own Up account. We may collect information that you voluntarily provide to us when using the Service. All of the information that we collect from you directly is identified in the forms, other places where you respond to questions, or where you indicate preferences throughout the Service, either online or communicated through our customer service representatives.We may also collect and store information that you provide to us about other people. By submitting information about someone other than yourself, you represent that you are authorized to provide us with that person's information for the purposes identified in this Privacy Policy and/or in connection with the Service.We may also retain any messages you send through the Service or customer service correspondence (via telephone, chat, text, email or otherwise). Calls to Own Up may be recorded or monitored for quality assurance, customer service, training, and/or risk management. We may also collect your information through the use of our automated chatbot, "Katina".
  2. Information that is collected automatically

    In addition to the information you provide to us directly, we may automatically collect information about your use of the Service, as described below.
    • Log file information. Log file information is automatically reported by your browser each time you access the Service. When you use our Service, our servers may automatically record certain log file information. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol ("IP") address, browser type, browser language, operating system, platform type, the state or country from which you accessed the Service, software and hardware attributes (including Device ID), referring / exit pages and URLs, number of clicks and how you interact with links on the Service, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed and the order of those pages, the data and time you used the Service and uploaded or posted content, error logs, files you download, and other such information.
    • Location information. When you use the Service, we may automatically collect general location information (e.g., IP address, city/state and or zip code associated with an IP address) from your computer or mobile device. Please note that if you disable such features, you may not be able to access or receive some or all of the services, content, features and/or products made available via the Service.
    • Cookies and other technologies. We and our third-party service providers may use cookies, clear GIFs, pixel tags, beacons, and other technologies that help us better understand user behavior, personalize preferences, perform research and analytics, deliver tailored advertising, and improve the products and services we provide. You can choose to accept or decline certain cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but your browser may allow you to modify your browser settings to decline certain cookies if you prefer. If you disable cookies, you may be prevented from accessing or taking full advantage of the Services.
      • Cookies. When you visit the Service, we may send one or more cookies — a small text file containing a string of alphanumeric characters — to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser or stores information or settings on your device. Cookies let us help you log in faster and enhance your navigation through the site. A cookie may also convey information to us about how you use the Service (e.g., the pages you view, the links you click and other actions you take on the Service), and allow us or our business partners to track your usage of the Service over time. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive after you close your browser. Persistent cookies may be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the site. Persistent cookies can be removed by following your web browser's directions. A session cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser. Our Service may use HTTP cookies, HTML5 cookies and other types of local storage (such as browser-based or plugin-based local storage).
      • Clear gifs/web beacons. When you use the Service, we may employ clear gifs (also known as web beacons) which are used to anonymously track the online usage patterns of our Users. In addition, we may also use clear gifs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to track which emails are opened, which links are clicked by recipients, and whether our emails are forwarded. The information allows for more accurate reporting and improvement of the Service.
      • Web analytics. We may use third-party Web analytics services on our Service, such as those of Google Analytics. These service providers use the technology described above to help us analyze how users use the Service. The information collected by the technology (including your IP address) will be disclosed to or collected directly by these service providers. To prevent Google Analytics from using information for analytics, a user may install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
    We may use this information in a number of ways, including: (a) to remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the site; (b) to provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) to provide our Service and monitor its effectiveness, including on or through our affiliates and/or other third party service providers; (d) to monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and demographic patterns; (e) to diagnose or fix technology problems; (f) to help you efficiently access your information after you sign in; (g) to deliver advertising to you and; (h) provide further training and development of our automated chatbot “Katina”.
  3. Information from Third-Party sources

    We may receive information about you from publicly and commercially available sources, as permitted by law, which we may combine with other information we receive from or about you. For example, when you request prequalified rates, we will ask your permission to conduct a soft credit inquiry. Likewise, when you apply for a loan product, either we or a Provider may conduct a hard credit inquiry. When you apply for a mortgage, we will conduct a search of public records to determine the estimated value of your home and your estimated taxes in order to automate the loan application process and make things more convenient and streamlined for you.

2. Do not track signals and similar mechanisms

Some Internet browsers may be configured to send "Do Not Track" signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to "Do Not Track" or similar signals. To find out more about "Do Not Track," please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

3. Use of your information

You may not opt out of Service-related emails.

If you wish to opt out of cross device tracking for purposes of interest-based advertising, you may do so through your Android or Apple device-based settings.
  • Research and Analytics. We may use your information for research and analytical purposes, for example, to identify trends and effectiveness of certain marketing campaigns we run.

4. Sharing of your information

We may share the information we collect or receive from you in a variety of circumstances, including as listed below. Where appropriate, we will limit sharing of your information in accordance with the choices you have provided us in response to our Privacy Notice.
  • Providers. We may share your information with Providers for the purpose of providing the Service to you such that they may provide you with information about your request for prequalified rates, offers, and information related to other products and services they offer.
    • You agree that when you submit information to a Provider or third-party through the Service, such submission of your information may also be governed by Provider or third-party privacy and security policies which differ from our Privacy Policy.

  • Other parties when required by law or as necessary to protect our users and services. Own Up may share your information where required to do so by law or subpoena or if we reasonably believe that such action is necessary to (a) comply with the law and the reasonable requests of law enforcement; (b) enforce our Terms and Conditions or to protect the security or integrity of our Service; and/or (c) exercise or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Own Up, our Users or others.
  • Business transfers. We may buy or sell/divest/transfer Own Up (including any shares in Own Up), or any combination of its products, services, assets and/or businesses.

5. How we store and protect your information

Keeping your information safe.

Own Up takes technical and organizational measures to protect your data against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. These measures vary depending on the sensitivity of the information we have collected from you. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or via mobile device, or method of electronic storage, is absolutely secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Own Up is not responsible for the functionality or security measures of any third-party or Provider.
To protect your privacy and security, we take steps (such as requesting a unique password) to verify your identity before granting you access to your account. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your unique password and account information, and for controlling access to your email communications from Own Up, at all times. Do not share your password with anyone and do limit your access to your computer or other devices by signing off after you have finished accessing your account.
For information about how to protect yourself against identity theft, please refer to the Federal Trade Commission's website.

    You can stop receiving promotional email communications from us by clicking on the "unsubscribe link" provided in such communications.

If you have any questions about reviewing or modifying your account information, you can contact us directly at support@ownup.com.
  3. Opt-out and annual notice

7. How long we keep your user content

Following termination or deactivation of your User account, Own Up may retain your profile information for an additional period of time for backup, archival, or audit purposes. In certain circumstances, we are required by Federal and State regulations to store various information. In order to comply with those requirements, we may be unable to delete your information from our database until the legally required retention period expires.

8. Children's privacy

Own Up does not knowingly collect or solicit any information from anyone under the age of 16 or allow such persons to register as Users. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 16, we will promptly delete that information. If you believe that we might have collected any information from a child under 16, please contact us at support@ownup.com.

9. Links to other web sites and services

We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites or services linked to or from the Service or to which you direct Own Up to retrieve information, including the information or content contained therein. Please remember that when you use a link to go from the Service to another website, our Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites or services. Your browsing and interaction on any third-party website or service, including those that have a link or advertisement on our website, are subject to that third-party's own rules and policies. In addition, you agree that we are not responsible for, and we do not have control over, any third-parties that you authorize to access your User Content. If you are using a third-party website or service and you allow such a third-party access to your User Content, you do so at your own risk. Own Up is also not responsible for sites directing you to Own Up. Our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy do not apply to those third-party sites either.

10. Your California privacy rights

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the "Shine The Light" law, permits Users who are California residents to request and obtain from us once a year, free of charge, information about the personal information (if any) we disclosed to third-parties for direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. If applicable, this information would include a list of the categories of personal information that were shared and the names and addresses of all third-parties with which we shared information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to:

11. Complaints and how to contact us

If we make a material change to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you as required by law.

13. Use of Artificial Intelligence

Our website utilizes an AI (Artificial Intelligence) Chatbot "Katina", which is programmed to provide helpful information and assistance based on available data and predefined algorithms. While the Chatbot aims to offer accurate and helpful responses, its information may not always be exhaustive, up-to-date, or tailored to individual circumstances. It should not be considered a substitute for educational information received from one of our Home Advisor. Users are encouraged to verify critical information and consult with our office for specific concerns or decisions. We do not assume liability for actions taken based on the Chatbot's responses. Any interaction with our AI Chatbot does not constitute the rendering of advice. By using our website and its Chatbot, you acknowledge and agree to these terms.

6. Your CCPA rights

Subject to certain exceptions, the CCPA affords you the following rights with respect to your personal information. It's worth noting that these rights do not apply to personal information we collect about California consumers who apply for or obtain a financial product and service for personal, family, or household purposes (in other words, information regulated by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act). For information about how we collect, disclose and use information relating to these consumers and the choices relating to such information, please refer to our GLBA Notice.
  1. Request to know

    You have a right to request that the Company disclose what personal information it collects, uses, discloses, and sells. It includes a request for any or all of the following:
    1. Specific pieces of personal information that the Company has about you;
    2. Categories of personal information the Company has collected about you;
    3. Categories of sources from which your personal information is collected;
    4. Categories of personal information that the Company has sold or disclosed for a business purpose about you;
    5. Categories of third parties to whom your personal information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose; and
    6. The business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling personal information.
  2. Request to delete

    You have a right to request that the Company delete your personal information that we have collected from you. However, certain information regulated by other privacy and data protection laws (including, for example, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) may be exempt from, or outside the scope of, any deletion request (i.e., the GLBA's requirement to retain the information may preempt your request that we delete it. In other words, we may be legally required to retain your data for a certain period of time and therefore we cannot delete your data at your request. If this happens, we will let you know in response to your request). As a result, in some instances, we may decline all or part of a deletion request if related to this type of exempt information.
  3. Request to opt-out

    We do not provide personal information about you to other companies for money. The advertising services we use may collect certain information, including cookies and similar information stored on your browsers, advertising identifiers on your mobile devices, and/or the IP address of your devices when you visit our sites or use our apps.

    Once you submit a request, we will verify that you are the consumer to which the request pertains by matching your name, email address and physical address with information we maintain. Depending on the type of request you submit, we will attempt to match either two or three of these data points to the information maintained in our systems. If we are unable to verify your request with the data points you provided, we may reach out to you for additional information to verify your request. We may also reach out to you for additional verifying information for requests requiring a higher degree of verification because of the type or sensitivity of the request.
You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require that you provide the authorized agent with written permission to act on your behalf and that you verify your identity directly with us.
