This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) applies to the Physician Loan Directory website and governs data collection and usage. By using the Physician Loan Directory website, you consent to the data practices described in this Policy.

Collection of your Personal Information

Physician Loan Directory collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address or telephone number. Physician Loan Directory also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites.

There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by Physician Loan Directory. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring website addresses. This information is used by Physician Loan Directory for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Physician Loan Directory website.  This policy covers both online and offline activities, including information that we collect through our website, marketing events, applications you submit online and in person (among other methods).

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through any Physician Loan Directory public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.  This includes any information that is part of your profile on a third-party social network (such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) and that you allow the third-party social network to share with us.  Note: Physician Loan Directory does not read any of your private online communications, such as a direct message sent to your loan officer or loan consultant.

Physician Loan Directory encourages you to review the privacy policies of websites you choose to link to from ours so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. Physician Loan Directory is not responsible for the privacy policies or other content on websites outside of the Physician Loan Directory family of websites. 

In all cases, we strive to limit the amount of information we collect and store to that which is necessary to provide you the relevant services.

WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED? The types of personal information we collect, and share depend on the product or service you have with us.

  • Contact Forms – If you fill out a contact form on our site, we store that information in a database and use the information to respond to you regarding the reason you contacted us. In addition, we collect phone contacts in the mobile app when you share the app.

Use of your Personal Information

Physician Loan Directory collects and uses your personal information to operate our website and deliver the services you have requested. Physician Loan Directory also uses your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from us and our affiliates.

Physician Loan Directory does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. Physician Loan Directory may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, we may share data with trusted partners for a business purpose, for instance, to perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries, among other things. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to Physician Loan Directory, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

Physician Loan Directory does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Physician Loan Directory keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within Physician Loan Directory, in order to determine what Physician Loan Directory services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within Physician Loan Directory to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.

California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

  • Right to Know – Consumers in California have the right to know what information companies collect about them, from which sources, how it is used, and to whom it is disclosed.
  • Right to be Forgotten – Consumers have the right to request we remove all records from a business database.
  • Right to Opt-Out – Businesses cannot sell or share your information if you exercise this right.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination – Businesses cannot discriminate against you in price, service, etc. if you exercise your rights under CCPA.

You may make these requests related to your California privacy rights at this link (https://mortgagesolutions.net/ccpa-opt-out/), by sending an email to Privacy@mortgagesolutions.net, or by calling 1-866-346-7677.

When you make a request, we may ask you to provide verifying information, such as your name, email, or phone number. We will review the information provided and may request additional information via email or other means to ensure we are interacting with the correct individual. Please also be aware that making any such request does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal or deletion of personal information or content you may have posted, and there may be circumstances in which the law does not require or allow us to fulfill your request.

Please be aware that we do not accept or process requests through any other means (e.g. via fax, social media, other email addresses or telephone numbers, etc.)

Use of Cookies

The Physician Loan Directory website 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 Physician Loan Directory pages, or register with Physician Loan Directory’s website or services, a cookie helps us 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 Physician Loan Directory website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Physician Loan Directory website 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 Physician Loan Directory services or websites you visit.

Security of your Personal Information

Physician Loan Directory secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. We secure the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When we transmit personal information (such as a credit card number) to other websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

We Do Not Collect Information From Children

We do not knowingly solicit or collect any type of information from a person under the age of 18. If you learn that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of this Privacy Policy, then you may alert at admin@physicianloandirectory.com and we will remove that information from our records as soon as feasibly possible.
