CHANGES TO PRIVACY STATEMENT

We reserve the right to make material changes to the substance of this Privacy Statement. We will post those changes through a prominent notice on the web site so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and to whom we will disclose it.

YOUR CALIFORNIA RIGHTS

A California resident who has provided personal information to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes ("California customer") is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. In general, if the business has made such a disclosure of personal information, upon receipt of a request by a California customer, the business is required to provide a list of all third parties to whom personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.

However, under the law, a business is not required to provide the above-described lists if the business adopts and discloses to the public (in its privacy policy) a policy of not disclosing customer's personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, as long as the business maintains and discloses this policy. Rather, the business may comply with the law by notifying the customer of his or her right to prevent disclosure of personal information and providing a cost free means to exercise that right.

As stated in this policy, you have agreed to allow us to share information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes until you remove your information and thus, agreement for such disclosure. To prevent disclosure of your personal information for use in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt in to such use when you provide personally identifiable information on one of our sites or contact us via email to remove your information from our database. Please note that whenever you opt in to receive future communications from a third party, your information will be subject to the third party's privacy policy. If you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly, as we have no control over how third parties use information. You should always review the privacy policy of any party that collects your information to determine how that entity will handle your information.

California customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by e-mailing incometaxadvances@greenleafloans.com. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail address.

Secure & Private Service

Income Tax Advances is an online lender that provides safe and secure refund anticipation loans to consumers who have their paycheck direct deposited into a checking or savings account. Since we base your refund anticipation loan off your income you are never required to supply a copy of your income tax return and you can apply even before you file your taxes and you can apply right here online. We collect information about your bank account details, as well as employment details, and we keep all data confidential. We only use it to process your online income tax loan. Your information is always safe when you apply for Income Tax Advances Online.

Through encryption and high levels of data security, we protect you and we keep your information safe. Our systems have been developed to guard against identity theft. We understand how valuable your personal details are: your social security number, bank account number, address and phone numbers, etc.

Loan Terms: Income Tax Advances works with many lenders and does it's very best to match you with the lender with the best loan terms based on the information you provide on the application. All repayment terms are provided by the lender and therefore all questions concerning loan terms should be addressed directly with the lender you are matched with. For more information simply click on "Rates and Fees" located at the bottom of every page.

Tax Filing: Income Tax Advances or its lenders do not file your taxes for you, do not receive your tax refund directly and do not request copies of your tax returns. Due to the potential of the IRS either keeping or delaying your tax refund we must place the repayment of the loan to be due on one of your pay dates for your protection. Further, since we do not file your taxes or know for certain the amount you will be refunded from the IRS, we must base your Refund Anticipation Loan amount on your income and cap the maximum loan amount at $1500.

Bank Account Required: In order to receive a loan you must have a bank account where the Refund Anticipation Loan can be deposited and repayment drawn from. In most cases the loan will be direct deposited into your bank account within 1 business day and repayment will be auto drafted from the same bank account. We want you to be aware of this so you deposit enough of your refund into your bank account to cover the loan and fees. If you wish to request to renew, extend or refinance your loan then you must contact the lender who will be there to assist you. A loan renewal, extension or refinance will most likely result in additional fees, charges or interest which you should discuss with your lender.

Income Tax Advances provides online refund anticipation loan services of one type or another in almost all 50 states. However, some states only allow for issuing of refund installment loans or refund lines of credit.

All Income Tax Advance lenders act as a credit service organization or credit access businesses (CSO/CAB) in Texas and are not the lender - loans there are made by third-party lenders in accordance with Texas Law.

This is an invitation to submit a refund anticipation loan application, not an offer to make a refund anticipation loan. No person applying is guaranteed to receive either a refund anticipation loan, tax refund loan in 1 hour, tax refund installment loan or tax refund line of credit.
