Personal Information

You may elect to share personal information with us by filling out one or more of our website forms, such as name, email address, phone number, and any other personal information you choose to provide. We use the information you send to us to respond to your inquiries, request or comments.

If you click on the Careers link (if provided) on this website, you will be referred to our careers page where you can then elect to click on a link to access our third-party applicant tracking website to search for available openings and apply for a job. Once you leave this website, this Privacy Policy will no longer apply and the DataVerify privacy policy appearing on the website of our applicant tracking system will apply to the personal information you provide at that website for employment purposes. As noted below, any privacy policy provided by our third-party applicant tracking website may also apply to your interactions with that website.

State Consumer Privacy Laws

If you have submitted a mortgage loan application to a lender that has used our platform and related services, or if your lender has obtained flood zone determination determination services, whether initially or for the life of your loan, from us, you should submit your request to access or delete your personal information collected by your lender or exercise your other rights as a consumer under certain state privacy laws to your lender (the “data controller”). We are generally considered to be a “data processor” or “service provider” under state consumer data privacy laws when we process personal information on behalf of another business, such as your lender. If you submit your request to us, we may deny the request.
