To protect both you and us, we use services provided by a third-party to help decide whether to accept transactions from personal computers, mobile phones, or other devices. The third-party service checks whether these devices have been identified with fraudulent or abusive transactions in the past, such as reported instances of identity theft, account takeovers, or malware attacks. For this purpose, a cookie file, flash storage token, or other code file may be placed on your device to identify it in the future when you visit our website or connect with our applications. On connection with our site or service, we will transmit that device identification code to the third-party’s server, along with data concerning certain technical attributes of your device such as the model, operating system, and browser version, as well as the IP address, all of which are used to confirm device identification. The third-party’s server returns a response recommending that transactions be accepted or denied, according to settings we have selected. If you set your browser or device to reject these cookies or tokens, you may not be able to conclude some transactions through our website or application. If your requested transaction is declined, or if you have questions about our use of a “device reputation” service, please contact Customer Service at customerservice@eaglevalleylending.com.
COLLECTION AND USE OF BANK ACCOUNT INFORMATION:
If we extend credit to a consumer, we will consider the bank account information provided by the consumer as eligible for us to process payments against. In addition, as part of our information collection process, we may detect additional bank accounts under the ownership of the consumer. We will consider these additional accounts to be part of the application process.**
**For underwriting and verification purposes only. We always obtain prior or separate customer authorization when trying to obtain additional consumer bank account information as a potential payment option.
