At three places on our loan application we ask visitors to opt
in:
1. Consent to contact: We ask for consent to follow up with
visitors regarding their application or partially completed
application.
2. Consent to seek loan approval: We ask for permission to pull
credit reports and search for an auto loan approval with banks
on our customer’s behalf.
3. Third party consent: We ask for consent to provide customer
information to third parties, which we feel offer goods or services
customers may be interested in, outside of the parameters of
obtaining an auto loan.
We use this information to evaluate your applications, locate
an appropriate lender, provide you with high quality service,
prevent fraud and, with your consent, inform you of offers for
