Credit Firm Inc also offers direct assistance by practicing efficient tactics to increasing a person's credit score.

It is Credit Firm, Inc's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy applies to https://landing.creditfirminc.com. (hereinafter, "us", "we", or "https://landing.creditfirminc.com."). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the Website. We have adopted this privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") to explain what information may be collected on our Website, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the Website and does not apply to our collection of information from other sources.

This Privacy Policy posted on our Website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our Website. Depending on your activities when visiting our Website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.

What Data We Collect

We collect the following categories of information for the purposes explained below.

  • Activity’ Digital Properties: This is data about your browsing activity on our website. For example, which pages you visited and when, what items were clicked on a page, how much time was spent on a page, whether you opted in or not.
  • Device and browser information: This is technical information about the device or browser you use to access our website. For example, your device's IP address, cookie string data, operating system, and (in the case of mobile devices) your device type, and mobile device's identifier (such as the Apple IDFA or Android Advertising ID, and any other unique identifier that may be assigned to the mobile device).
  • Ad data: This is data about the online ads we have served (or attempted to serve) to you. For example, how many times an ad has been served to you, where the ad appeared on, and whether you clicked on or otherwise interacted with the ad. This data includes information about how well our ad campaigns have performed.
  • Email Communications: We may use emails from our clients that they provided to us for marketing services.
  • Hashed email addresses: Sometimes we collect hashed versions of the emails that consumers have entered on our site. Hashing is a “one-way function” that effectively pseudonymizes email addresses. For instance, when carroll_the_mouse@hotmail.com is run through a typical hashing function, it becomes the following string of digits: 0D0N7C1A2A7E8BLRBC6AA545F8PCW6F83671B32479271KFCJ6CK8628915058L7.

    We take this step to de-identify data and protect email addresses, while being able to use an identifier to better connect devices and browsers. We then employ these hashed emails (along with other information) for cross-device targeting, in order to try to recognize users across devices and browsers – for instance, to find the same user across multiple devices such as computers, tablets, and mobile devices.

  • Contact Information. We obtain and collect contact information from various third party sources, including from public sources and through licenses with data providers. We may also infer contact information based on email addresses and email naming conventions. This contact information is B2B information – in other words, it is usually the contact information of someone at a business email address, business street address, or sometimes, a business telephone number. We will not collect contact information this way for individuals who are located in European Territories.
  • Information We Receive in Our Corporate Capacity. We also collect information from our own customers and those who visit our website(s).

How We Use The Data We Collect

We use this data to help our Advertisers identify and serve ads to you that are more relevant to you. We also use this data to operate, improve and enhance our advertising techniques including enhancing the data points we have about a particular user, browser, or device to serve the most relevant ads to you and, in turn, improve performance of an Advertiser’s ad campaigns. Specifically, we use this data for:

  • Targeting: Selecting ads that are more likely to be relevant to you based on the interests previously associated with your device and the time of day you may be most interested in viewing these specific ads.
  • Frequency capping: Making sure that you don't see the same ad too many times.
  • Sequencing: If you are being served a sequence of ads, making sure we show you the right ad next in the sequence.
  • Cross-device matching: Identifying different devices that are likely to be associated with you so that ads can be targeted, capped and sequenced across those devices, and so that campaign effectiveness can be measured and analyzed. For example, cross-device matching helps us NOT show you ads for the shoes you were looking at on your phone but already purchased on your tablet. Instead we’ll try to show you ads for an upcoming triathlon where you can put those shoes to work. It also helps us match devices so we can honor your opt-out choices across all devices we know are connected to the opted-out cookie. You may opt-out of being targeted in the above “cross-device” and “cross-channel” ways by employing the respective opt-out techniques we describe in a section below.
  • Attribution: Monitoring when, where, and at what price we served certain ads so that we can measure our influence on the marketing results of the Advertiser’s campaigns and overall marketing strategy. For example, being able to measure if a certain ad campaign (the ads shown and to whom they were shown).
  • Reporting: Getting insights into how our ads are performing and gain insights into our customers. Reporting may include ad metrics such as impressions, clicks, and conversions (however the we may define a “conversion” such as, for example, a sale or a white paper download, or a correlation to an actual or inferred sale, site visit or store visit). This data allows an us to determine if an ad is not performing well (customers are not clicking on it), so that the Advertiser will be able to see that data and update the ad (perhaps with a better deal!). With respect to specific cookie data, we limit reporting to cookie activity on our website and which ads were shown, whether there was engagement with those ads.
  • Conducting Our Corporate Operations. As to information we collect in our corporate capacity – our own B2B lists of customers and prospective customers – we use that information to conduct our business operations and communications.

Data Sharing

  • With a Client: We may share your business contact information collected from third party sources or inferred (as mentioned in the “What Data We Collect” section) with a Client if we think that your business or employer would be interested in that Client’s products.
  • With our service providers: We contract with companies who help with parts of our business operations (e.g., for example, website and data hosting, fraud prevention, viewability reporting, data hygiene, marketing, and email delivery), as well as billing, collections, tech, customer and operational support.
  • In connection with legal proceedings: When we are under a legal obligation to do so, for example to comply with a binding order of a court, or where disclosure is necessary to exercise, establish or defend the legal rights of Credit Firm, Inc, or any other third party.
  • To comply with legal process: To satisfy in good faith any applicable law, legal process, or proper governmental request, such as to respond to a subpoena (whether civil or criminal) or similar process.

  • With our Advertising Partners: We also share hashed email addresses (or other pseudonymous identifiers associated with those hashes), technical data that we collect about your browsing habits and your device (such as data relating to our cookies, tracking pixels and similar technologies) with other companies in the digital advertising ecosystem.

Opting-out of this type of advertising through the below methods will not prevent you from seeing ads, but those ads will likely be less relevant because they will not be tailored to your interests. The ads might, for instance, be randomly generated or based on the web page you are visiting.

  • Cross Device Opt- Out: In some cases we may link multiple browsers or devices to you. If you opt-out on a browser or device and we have additional devices or browsers linked to you, we will extend your opt-out decision to any other linked browsers and devices. Since we only link users across browsers and devices in some conditions, there could be cases where you are still being tracked in a different browser or device we have not linked, and where we are treating you as a different user.
  • Mobile Device Opt-Out: To opt-out of receiving targeted ads that are based on your behavior across different mobile applications follow the below instructions, for iOS and Android devices:
    • iOS 7 or Higher: Go to your Settings > Select Privacy > Select Advertising > Enable the “Limit Ad Tracking” setting; and
