Use of Cookies
The Loans Compete Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your
online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk
by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver
viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only
be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature
to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you
have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize
Loans Compete pages, or register with Loans Compete site or services, a
cookie helps Loans Compete to recall your specific information on
subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal
information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When
you return to the same Loans Compete Web site, the information you
previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the
Loans Compete features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser
setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies,
you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the
Loans Compete services or Web sites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
Loans Compete secures your personal information from unauthorized access,
use or disclosure. Loans Compete secures the personally identifiable
information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure
environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When
personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other
Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this Statement
Loans Compete will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect
company and customer feedback. Loans Compete encourages you to periodically
