Disclosure of your information

To provide the service, we will process your information and share it with our panel of lenders, other brokers and any other third party we believe may be able to help you.

To assess your creditworthiness, verify identities, prevent financial crime and find the right lender for your circumstances, our panel of lenders may do a full credit search (application search) on you and anyone to whom you are financially linked which only those searched will be able to see.

If you choose to proceed with a loan option we provide you, the selected lender may perform further checks. This will be to verify credit worthiness, verify identities and prevent financial crime. In this instance the credit reference agency may add the details of this search which may be seen by other organisations that make searches and who may use it to help make credit decisions, to prevent financial crime or to trace debtors however this depends on which lender may be able to assist you.

Information held about applicants by credit reference agencies may already be linked to records related to one or more of your partners or members of your household. As a result any application you make may be treated as financially linked and the application may be assessed with reference to any ‘associated ‘records. To ensure we are speaking to the right person, identifying you when you contact us will be important and will ensure we satisfy our regulatory obligations.

You agree that we may process, use, record and disclose your personal information as described above. Our panel of lenders may use automated decision making systems when assessing your application. We and our panel of lenders may disclose your personal information to credit reference agencies. Information held by credit reference agencies may be linked to other people with whom you have financial associations. The lenders may look at their records when assessing your application. If your application is not accepted by a lender, we will assess your eligibility for a product issued by another lender and may pass your personal information to another lender on our panel. To assist that lender in establishing your eligibility for credit, it will also pass your personal information to credit reference agencies.

To improve the quality of our service, we may record and or monitor telephone calls with you for the following purposes:

Security, quality and or training
To investigate queries
To comply with our legal obligations.

Accuracy of unsecured loan options

We will make every effort to ensure the accuracy of any unsecured loan options provided to you. Options are based on the latest information available from the lenders at the time we speak to you and may change as all options provided are subject to further checks. The lenders do however reserve the right to change the APR % rates and underwriting criteria without notice. Should this occur, it may result in a change to the option you have been provided with or may result in the option being withdrawn.

The accuracy of any option will also depend upon the accuracy of the information you have provided. Aspire Money Limited and our panel of lenders will conduct checks to verify the accuracy of the information that you have provided.
