Privacy Policy
We take our clients’ privacy very seriously. We understand that your privacy is important. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect and use the personal information that we acquire about you on piedpipergroup.com (the “Website”).
By continuing to use the Website, you agree to this Privacy Policy and the collection, use, disclosure, and storage of your personal information as described by this Privacy Policy.
INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you use the Website, we and/or our affiliates (collectively referred to herein as “we”, “us” or “our”) may collect personal information about you, such as your name, address, Social Security number, telephone number, email address, asset information, income information, or any other information that you submit on applications or other forms made available through the Website.
We may also collect personal information about you from third party sources, which we may combine with information that you provided to us, or we previously collected. For example, we may receive information from a social media service about you if you use a social media account to log into the Website.
We also automatically collect certain information related to you and your activities on the Website when you visit the Website. This information includes information such as your IP address, your internet browser and operating system type, the date and time of your visit, and the website that referred you to us.
COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
Our Website uses cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons (otherwise known as pixel tags). A “cookie” is a small file placed on your computer that helps us to recognize your browser. We use both first and third-party cookies and tracking technologies on the Website. These cookies and tracking technologies may collect your personal information. We may use cookies and tracking technologies to monitor how the Website is used, customize content, serve advertisements and evaluate the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns, identify problems with the Website, improve the Website, analyze Website traffic and other analytics purposes, monitor the security of the Website, and gauge the effectiveness of our communications.
Most web browsers allow you to adjust your preferences to reject cookies or to receive notifications before they are placed. If your browser is set to reject cookies, you may continue to use the Website, but some aspects of the Website may not function as intended.
TRACKING
Our first-party cookies and tracking technologies do not track users over time and across third-party websites, and therefore the Website does not respond to web browser do-not-track signals.
We also use third-party cookies to serve targeted advertisements on both the Website and on third-party websites. These cookies may track users over time and across third-party websites and services. Please note that if you opt-out of advertising cookies, you may still see our advertisements on third-party websites and services.
HOW WE USE COLLECTED INFORMATION
We use personal information and anonymous information for the following purposes:
- To complete and fulfill your loan application;
- To respond to and fulfill your requests;
- For our marketing efforts, such as to send you marketing communications that we believe may be of interest to you;
- For our business purposes, such as for analysis and to develop new products and services;
- To improve the Website and for analytics purposes; or
- For any other purpose to which you consent.
The Fair Credit Reporting Act gives you the opportunity to limit the sharing of “non-experience information” among our affiliates. “Non-experience information” includes information that is used, expected to be used, or collected for the purpose of establishing your eligibility for consumer credit, insurance or deposit accounts, and is not related solely to your transactions or other experiences with us, including information:
- From your applications, such as your income or marital status
- From a credit report, such as your credit history
- From sources used to verify representations made by you, such as your open lines of credit or employment history
Within our family of companies, we may share the customer information we collect with:
- The affiliated businesses to which Pied Piper Group, LLC provides advisory and other services such are:
- Residential & Commercial Mortgage Products
- Insurance and Real Estate Brokerage
- Accounting
- Merchant Processing
- Marketing and Business Development
- Continuing Education Services
- Residential Home Development
- Hedge Fund Transactions
HOW WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION
- Such as vendors who provide employment verification, degree verification, title, document import, or other necessary services;
- Such as to other partners with which we have marketing arrangements or to others that may want to provide information to you about the products and services that they offer (unless you’ve opted out);
- For any purpose to which you expressly consent;
- To protect our rights or the rights or safety of others; and
- As may be required by law or regulation.
We limit the information that we send service providers and require that our service providers only use shared personal information to perform the services requested in accordance with this Privacy Policy and have adequate security measures in place to protect any of your shared personal information.
For example, after you authorize us to verify your credit history, we send the minimal set of information needed (potentially including your social security number) to ensure we are requesting the correct record in an encrypted form to the relevant credit bureaus with the sole purpose of retrieving your credit report and associated credit history data. We would not send the same level of information to a service provider where it is not essential to perform their services.
For retrieving bank information (transactions, accounts, and other information), we use cloudflare.com as a third-party service provider. Their respective privacy policy is available here: Cloudflare
In the event that we enter into a corporate transaction, such as a reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets, or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings), personal information that we have collected may be transferred in the course of that corporate transaction to the relevant third party purchaser, joint venture partner, merged entity, assignee or similar party.

Additional Privacy Notice for California Residents
OVERVIEW
It applies to visitors, client’s, users, and others who reside in the State of California (“consumers” or “you”). This notice contains a description of our online and offline practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and sale of personal information and of the rights of California residents regarding their personal information.
While we believe that much of the personal information we collect is exempted under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act exemption of the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), we are providing this notice to recognize certain rights of consumers under the CCPA. For example, this Privacy Notice does not apply with respect to information that we collect about California residents who apply for or obtain our financial products and services for personal, family, or household purposes. In limited circumstances, we may collect information that identifies, describes, or is reasonably capable of being associated with you that is not related to your use of our financial products and services.
Any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this Privacy Notice.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the California resident about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative of such a resident.
- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to it.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

Our practices with regard to verifying a request will vary depending on the request and the information we have on the person making the request.

We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically (provided we can do so securely). Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.

You have the right to not receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of the privacy rights conferred by the CCPA.
