Privacy Policy

MegaStar Financial Corp. Privacy Policy

What is our commitment to you?

We are sensitive to your privacy concerns and are committed to letting you know what information is being collected on our sites, how the information is being used and what choices you have regarding the collection and use of the information. Please take a moment to review this privacy notice and feel free to contact us with any questions at mailto: [email protected]megastarfinancial.com.

What types of information do we collect about you?

The primary reason we collect personal information about you is to provide products and services that you have requested, specifically mortgage products and mortgage related information and services.

The categories of information we collect includes:

  • General Personal Information, including your name, address, email, telephone number, and employment status;
  • Private Personal Information, including your social security number and unique identifiers/identification numbers;
  • Private Financial Information, including income and credit history; and
  • Public Information, including unsealed court records and county property records.

The primary purpose for which the categories above are collected includes:

  • To process and complete your requested mortgage loan application and transaction with MegaStar Financial Corp.;
  • To provide you with information, to request required documents, and to stay in touch with you throughout your requested mortgage loan application/transaction and after your loan has closed with MegaStar Financial Corp.; and
  • To comply with State and Federal Law, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and Truth In Lending Act.

How does MegaStar Financial Corp. obtain this information?

MegaStar is provided this information from a variety of sources, including online and in person, and from our loan applicants/borrowers themselves. The loan applicant/borrower provides MegaStar with the information necessary to process and complete their requested loan transaction. MegaStar also contracts with various third party sources to verify the information provided by the loan applicant/borrower and to complete the loan transaction. Examples of third-party sources include the IRS, the Social Security Administration, credit reporting agencies, public records, and the loan applicant/borrower’s employer(s).

Do we share information with third parties?

MegaStar Financial Corp. does not sell your personal information.

We do not share personal identifying information with any non-affiliated third party except (1) as permitted or required by law. For example, MegaStar Financial Corp. will comply with inquiries by law enforcement or government agencies and will comply with Federal laws such as the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the Patriot Act, or the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA) in order to complete your requested mortgage loan transaction. Put simply, MegaStar Financial Corp. obtains your permission at application to share certain personal identifying information with non-affiliated third parties in order to complete your requested mortgage transaction, for example, credit reporting agencies, government agencies, and the investor on your mortgage loan. All non-affiliated third parties are subject to the same level of confidentiality as MegaStar Financial Corp. when it comes to the protection and security of your personal information.

MegaStar Financial Corp. may share certain information with non-affiliated third parties where you have given MegaStar consent to do so or to third party marketing vendors in order to stay in communication with you after your requested loan transaction has closed. The information MegaStar may provide includes your name, property address, and email. However, MegaStar does not share any personal identifying information, like your social security number or government identifier, with any non-affiliated third party except as stated above.

Our sites may contain links for other services that we feel you may have an interest in. We believe these sites share a similar commitment to consumer privacy and urge you to review their privacy policy when visiting their sites. We cannot, however, be responsible for their privacy practices.

What is our policy relating to former customers?

Our policy regarding the collection and use of information about former customers is the same as that regarding the collection and use about existing customers. Over time, in compliance with certain state and federal laws and contractual obligations, we will delete your information from all of our systems. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at: [email protected]com or follow the Request to Know/Delete process outlined below.

How do we protect your information?

We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those of our employees who need to know that information in order to provide products or services to you. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to protect your nonpublic personal information.

Transferability of Information

In the event we go through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or portion of our assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred. You will be notified by means of notice on our site for thirty (30) days of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information. For more information, please refer to the section labeled “Privacy Notice Changes,” below.

A Special Note Regarding People Under 18 Years Old

Consumers under the age of 18 must not send any personal information to us – including but not limited to information such as name, address or e-mail address.

Requests to Delete and Gramm-Leach-Bliley Exemption
