you with other people or non-affiliated companies apart from providing products
or services you have specifically requested.


We urge you to read this notice explaining our online information practices. It also
describes the choices available to you regarding the use of, your access to, and how to
update and correct your personal information. By using this site, you are accepting the
practices described in this Privacy Policy.


Information Collection and Use


Personal Information – this is “individually identifiable” information you provide to us
when requesting information through our site.


We collect and use personal information about you to respond to any requests you
make for information, products and/or services offered through this website. We may
also collect information in order to inform you about products, services, and other
opportunities we think will be of interest to you. Even though some personal information
we gather from you may be considered publicly available through government records
or other public sources, we treat all personal information submitted by you as nonpublic
personal information.

The information we collect may be from the following places:

Information you supply to us when you sign up to receive communication from us (example:
your email address).

Information provided by you in association with obtaining financial products or services (such as
your name, age, telephone number, self-assessed property value).
Information you provide us through surveys, feedback, promotions or other forms hosted on our
website or the pages of a Debt-advocates.com partner.
Information about others such as name and age.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell and share personal information about you with other people or non-
affiliated companies apart from providing products or services you have specifically
requested or under the following conditions:

Product or Service Requests – If you enter a request for a financial, insurance or
other product or service offered through this website with your consent, we will share
personal information included in your request form, such as your name, email, physical
address, telephone number, and property information, with lenders and partners in our
provider network who offer the product you inquired about and like products with similar
benefits to process and complete your request. Everyone on our network of providers,
including banks, brokers and other firms has entered into a marketing agreement with
Debt-advocates.com and are required to comply with state and federal privacy laws and
regulations.
Debt-advocates.com and Partners on our provider network may contact you by
telephone (including calls to a mobile phone or calls made using automated dialing),
email, direct mail or any other method they may deem appropriate based on the
information you supplied to us in order to process and complete your request, even if
you have opted into the National Do Not Call List administered by the Federal Trade
Commission or any state equivalent Do Not Call List. If any of these firms calls you by
telephone and you wish not to be contacted again by that firm, then you should notify
that firm that you do not wish to be contacted again. If a firm ignores your request and
contacts you again, please contact us immediately by sending an email to info@debt-

advocates.com. Please note that the lenders and other firms may maintain the
information you provided whether you choose to use their services or not.
Vendors – We sometimes share some of the information we collect with companies,
such as marketing partners or other third parties that provide certain services for us
such as marketing services, data verification and live chat. We may use the personal
information that you supply to us and we may work with other third parties to bring
selected retail opportunities to you via direct mail, email and telemarketing. These
companies only have access to personal information necessary to deliver their service,
and may not share it with others or use it for any other purpose – these limits are
specified in confidentiality and other legal agreements with us. If you do not want us to
share your personal information with these companies, contact us at info@debt-
advocates.com.
As Permitted by Law – In certain situations, DebtAdvocates Inc. may be required to
disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to
meet law enforcement requirements. We may be required to share your personal
information with law enforcement or government agencies in response to subpoenas,
court orders, similar legal processes or like circumstances. When we believe in good
faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety
of others. It may be necessary to share information in order to investigate, avert, or take
action regarding illegal behavior, suspected fraud, and/or violations of Debt-
advocates.com’s Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law.
Business Transfer – At some point it is possible that DebtAdvocates could merge with
or be acquired by another company, you will be notified via email and/or a prominent
notice on our Web site of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information,
as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information. If such an
acquisition occurs, the successor company would have access to the information
maintained by Debt-advocates.com, including customer account information, but would
continue to be bound by this Privacy Policy unless you agree otherwise.
