Financial companies choose how they share your personal information. Federal law, along with some state laws, give consumers the right to limit some, but not all, sharing.

continue to share your information as described in this policy; you can contact us at any time, however, to limit our sharing.

You may review and update the personal information we hold about you by signing into your personal account at sunshineloans.com and by contacting [email protected].

How does Sunshine Loans collect my personal information?

We collect personal information from you as you use our Service but only as allowed by law. We limit the collection of personal information to what is relevant and necessary to accomplish a lawful purpose.

Automatically collected information

We do not collect home, business or email addresses, or account information from people who simply browse our Site. The information we do automatically collect includes the domain name or Internet Protocol address that relates to the machine or device used to access our Site, the type of browser and operating system used, the date and time when the Site is visited, device ID if you are on a mobile device, geolocation data and web pages displayed.

Like many websites, this Site uses “session cookies” and “persistent cookie” technology. Persistent cookies are small text files that our Site places within your browser so that it can remember you when you show up again later—like cookie crumbs. None of these cookies store any of your personal information. We use persistent cookies to enhance your experience on our Site while also protecting your privacy, as well as enhancing the functionality and performance of our Site, and for analytical purposes. On our Site, temporary cookies, also called session cookies, may be placed within your browser and expire as soon as you exit our site. Typically, session cookies are used to facilitate interactions between you and the fields in forms on our Site.

Managing cookie preferences differs from browser to browser, please refer to your web browser for further information. If you would like to disable cookies from Sunshine Loans, please use the help function in your web browser to restrict cookies from our Site.

We use Google Analytics to see how visitors are using Sunshine Loans. Google Analytics reports traffic patterns anonymously. We may collect non-identifying information, such as the type of browser and browser version you are using to access our Site, the day and time you access our Site, the referring website that linked you directly to our Site (if you arrived here by clicking a link on another website), and limited geographic information. No personally identifiable information is collected for this purpose.

Third Party Collection

Although we do not collect personally identifiable information on consumers that visit our Site, there exists the possibility that other third parties conduct online tracking on Site over which we do not control. Such third parties may collect Personal Information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our Site. We do not control these third parties, who may engage in practices that differ from those described in this Privacy Policy.

You may link your Facebook account to your Sunshineloans.com account, which allows us to obtain information from your Facebook account (like your friends or contacts). The information we get from Facebook often depends on your settings and Facebook’s privacy policy. You have the ability to restrict the information we have access to by updating the settings within your Facebook account. In addition, you can also disconnect your Facebook account from your Sunshineloans.com account at any time. If you link your accounts, Sunshine Loans will not market to any of your Facebook friends or contacts.

We use data collected by mobile carriers for the purpose of verifying identity and preventing fraud. We may continue to access and use this data throughout the duration of the business relationship.

When logging into a third party service (such as a social network) or a website different from our Service, please be aware that the privacy practices of those services may differ. Use of the information will be governed by their privacy policies, and you may be able to modify your privacy settings on their websites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy for each website you visit. We are not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of linked third party sites or services.

Online Tracking

We partner with companies that deliver ads for our Services on sites that you visit on the web. In order to provide you with a more appropriate online experience, some of our ads that you may see are based on your previous online activity on our Site and other websites. Information about your online activities, combined with other information, may be used to select an ad for a product or service that better matches your interests – which is called online behavioral advertising (OBA) or interest-based advertising.

You can opt out from receiving ads based on your online behavior either by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) opt out page at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ . If you elect to opt out of OBA, you will still see ads, but they may not be as pertinent to you. Please keep in mind that opting out is cookie-based and will only affect the specific computer and browser on which the opt-out cookie is applied. If you delete your browser cookies or if you use a different computer or a different browser and want to continue to be opted out of OBA, you will need to opt out again.
