  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
  • Opt-Out: Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information
  • Correction: Correct inaccurate information

You can submit a request by emailing privacy@profundingoptions.com or completing our Data Request form. We will verify your identity and respond within 45 days. If we require additional time to process your request, up to a maximum total of ninety (90) days from the date the request is received, we will notify you of this and inform you of the reason for requiring the additional time.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.

Verifiable Consumer Request Requirements

The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows Pro Funding Options to verify, to a reasonable degree of certainty, that you are the person about whom Pro Funding Options collected personal information (or your authorized representative), which may include multi-factor authentication of identifying information provided by you. Such authentication may be conducted and verified independently or in combination with a comparison of personal information already maintained by Pro Funding Options, if any; and
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows Pro Funding Options to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm that the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us, but we must also be able to confirm the personal information relates to you. However, we do consider requests made through your password protected account sufficiently verified when the request relates to personal information associated with that specific account.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights as described above. Unless permitted by the law, Pro Funding Options will not:

  • Deny you goods or services
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties
  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services
  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services

We endeavor to safeguard and protect your information.

Important: Please be advised that, although we take commercially reasonable technological precautions to protect your data, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure; therefore, we cannot and do not warrant that your information will be absolutely secure.
