Privacy Policy

Last Revised: April 17, 2020

This Privacy Policy describes the information AMP Advance LLC dba AMP Advance. (“AMP Advance“, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects about you, how we use and share that information, and the privacy choices we offer. This policy applies to information we collect when you register for AMP Advance’s funding matching service, access or use our website, mobile applications, products, and services (collectively, the “Service”), or when you otherwise interact with us. As used in this Privacy Policy, the term “Site” includes: all websites and all devices or applications operated by AMP Advance that collect personal information from you and that link to this Privacy Policy; pages within each such website, device, or application, any equivalent, mirror, replacement, substitute, or backup website, device, or application. The word “Personal Information” includes any information that does relate or could be related to an individual. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement to refer to specific examples will be construed to mean “including, without limitation” or “including but not limited to” and will not be construed to mean that the examples given are an exclusive list of the topics covered.

When information is processed by AMP Advance for its own purposes, the processing of that information is described by this privacy policy. Where AMP Advance is acting as a service provider, the privacy policy of AMP Advance’s principal and/or the entity collecting the information by and through AMP Advance applies.

By accessing the Site and by using the Service, you agree to, and are bound by, this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, you may not access or otherwise use this Site or Service.

• Verified Data: You may also be asked to provide tax returns or to synch AMP Advance to your bank’s transactional data. Verified Data will be used to ensure the Application Information is accurate.

• Additional Use of Third Parties: AMP Advance uses third parties to gather your data from financial institutions (the “External Data“). By using our Service, you grant our third-party provider the right, power, and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your personal and financial information from the relevant financial institution according to terms of our third-party providers privacy policy. If any of the Application Information does not match External Data, you will have an opportunity to modify any of the Application Information.
