Our Website and Cookies

Information We Collect Through Automatic Data Collection Technologies

As you navigate and interact with our Website, we utilize automatic data collection technologies to gather specific information about your device, browsing behaviors, and usage patterns, including:

• Details regarding your visits to our Website, encompassing traffic data, geolocation data, logs, communication data, and the resources you access and utilize on the Website.
• Information concerning your computer, mobile device, and internet connection, such as your IP address, operating system, browser type, clickstream patterns, the URL of the preceding website you visited before reaching ours, the duration of your visit, and the pages viewed during your time on our Website.
• Behavioral Tracking: We might also employ these technologies to compile insights about your online activities across time and various third-party websites or online services. This information might be associated with De-Identified Personal Information we collect. While we don't permit personalized third-party behavioral tracking, we may use De-Identified Personal Information to track users' click or browsing patterns.
• Keystrokes: We or our service providers might observe and collect keystrokes and cursor movements of Website visitors before purchasing a Product or Service from our Website (prior to having specific identifying information about you beyond your IP address). This information remains anonymous, and we don't initially link it to your identifiable identity. However, if you subscribe to receive our emails (e.g., through a popup box), we can subsequently link keystroke and cursor information to the provided email address. This data is used solely to enhance the Website for an improved user experience (e.g., better navigation, readability).

The automatically collected information is primarily statistical data, which may include Personal Information, and we may either maintain it or associate it with Personal Information obtained through other methods or from third parties. This data assists us in enhancing the Website and delivering more tailored Products and Services. It enables us to estimate audience size, analyze usage patterns, store preferences, enhance and customize the Website, accelerate search functions, and recognize returning visitors.

Cookie Notice/Policy

The technologies we utilize for this automatic data collection encompass cookies, local storage cookies, web beacons, pixel tracking, GIFs, and IP addresses. Each of these is detailed below.

Cookies (or browser cookies)

A cookie is a small file stored on your computer or mobile device's hard drive. It may contain various data, such as the server's name that placed it, a unique identification number, and an expiration date (in some cases). These cookies are managed by your web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or Google Chrome) on your device.

Our Website employs different types of cookies, each serving distinct purposes.

Essential Cookies

These cookies are indispensable for enabling you to navigate our Website and utilize its functionalities. They are necessary for services like shopping carts and electronic invoicing to function properly.

Performance Cookies

Performance cookies gather data about your interaction with our Website, such as the most frequently visited pages. This information empowers us to optimize the Website's performance and simplify navigation. Additionally, performance cookies allow our affiliates and partners to ascertain if you accessed our pages through their site and whether this visit resulted in using or purchasing a Product or Service from our Website, including the relevant product references. These cookies do not gather information that could identify you personally. All collected data is aggregated and thus remains anonymous.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies empower our Website to recall the choices you've made while browsing. For instance, we can store your geographical location in a cookie to display the corresponding regional content. Preferences like text size, font, and other customizable elements of the Website can also be remembered. Functionality cookies might also track viewed products or videos to prevent redundancy. The data collected by these cookies is incapable of identifying you and does not track your browsing activity on external sites beyond our control.

On certain pages of websites not managed by us, you might encounter third-party cookies.

We also utilize cookies to implement tracking technology on our Website. This enables us to showcase tailored advertising on our Website, comprehend which content sections interest you the most, and determine the preferred Product or Service categories. This tracking relies on De-Identified Personal Information data. We will not merge this data with your other Personal Information without your explicit consent. Some of our service providers are permitted to place cookies on our Website. These companies may offer you the choice to opt out of cookie usage in the future. For more information, please contact the relevant third-party provider.

You retain the ability to prevent future cookie usage at any time. By adjusting the appropriate setting in your browser, you can decline the acceptance of browser cookies. However, this action might impact your experience on our Website, potentially restricting access to certain sections. If your browser settings are not configured to reject cookies, our system will issue cookies when you visit our Website.

Local Storage Cookies: Certain functionalities of our Website may utilize local stored objects (or Adobe Flash cookies) to accumulate and store data about your preferences and navigation on our Website. These local storage cookies are not managed through the same browser settings as traditional browser cookies.

Web Beacons: Our Website pages and emails may contain tiny electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs). These elements enable us, for instance, to tally users who have visited specific pages or opened an email, and provide other relevant website statistics (such as tracking the popularity of specific website content and confirming system and server integrity).

Pixel Tracking: Alongside the use of cookies, our Website may employ "pixel tracking," a prevalent method also utilized in connection with advertisements on external sites. Pixel tracking entails the use of pixel tags, which are invisible to users and consist of concise lines of computer code. These tags measure the effectiveness of advertisements and generate both aggregate and specific usage statistics. A "pixel tag" is an undetectable tag positioned on particular website pages to monitor an individual user's activity. We may access these pixel tags to identify activities and interests, enhancing our ability to match our products, services, and offers with your preferences. For instance, if you reach our Website through an advertisement on another site, the pixel tag lets the advertiser track that their advertisement directed you to our Website. Additionally, if we link you to another website from our Website, we might determine that you engaged with a third-party website. This data is gathered to enhance our marketing, research, and other activities.

GIF: We may employ small images referred to as clear GIFs to monitor user behavior, including collecting statistics about email openings.

IP Address: When you access the Website, our servers (or those of our service providers) automatically capture specific log file details provided by your browser. These server logs might encompass data such as the web pages you accessed on the Website, your internet protocol ("IP") address, browser type, and other insights into your interactions with the Website. Typically, these log files are regularly purged.

Information We Collect from Third Parties

We may gather information that others provide about you when you utilize the Website or acquire data from alternative sources, and then combine it with the information we collect via the Website.

• Third Party Services: If you link, connect, or log in to your account using a third-party social media service (such as Facebook, Google, Instagram, Yelp, etc.), that service may transmit us information such as your registration and profile details from their platform. The nature of this information may vary and is governed by the terms of that service or your privacy settings within that service.
• Other Sources: Subject to the extent allowed by applicable law, we may receive supplementary information about you, such as demographic details or fraud detection insights, from third-party service providers and/or partners. This information could be combined with the data we already possess about you. For instance, we might receive background check outcomes or fraud alerts from service providers like identity verification services, which contribute to our fraud prevention and risk assessment endeavors. Additionally, through partnerships, we might receive information about your interactions both on and off the Website, as well as insights from our partner advertising networks. Such third-party providers encompass various functions, including backend processing, order fulfillment, automation, video hosting platforms, email management, authentication, form handling, website usage tracking, calendar invitation and scheduling management, and database hosting and maintenance.

Third-Party Use of Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

Certain content or applications, including advertisements, on the Website are furnished by third parties, such as advertisers, ad networks and servers, content providers, and application providers. These third parties may employ first-party or third-party cookies independently or alongside web beacons and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your interactions with our Website.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies: A first-party cookie is a cookie established by the domain name visible in your browser's address bar. Conversely, a third-party cookie is placed on a domain name distinct from the one visible in your browser's address bar. These cookies might be set when side resources (like images, JavaScript, iframes, etc.) load from a different domain or via an AJAX HTTP request to a third-party server. The data collected by these cookies, whether first-party or third-party, could be associated with your Personal Information. Alternatively, they might accumulate data, including Personal Information, about your online activities across various websites and online services, essentially tracking these activities. This information could be employed for delivering interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.

Third-Party Tracking Technologies: We lack control over the tracking technologies utilized by these third parties and how they are employed. If you have inquiries regarding a specific advertisement or targeted content, it is advisable to contact the responsible provider directly. Further details on opting out of third-party advertiser tracking mechanisms can be found here.

Google

• Google Analytics: We utilize Google Analytics (visit Google’s website) and potentially other analytics services, along with some third-party service providers, to gain insights into the usage of our Website and Services. These service providers may place their own cookies in your browser. Our Privacy Policy pertains to our use of cookies and not the usage by third parties.
• Google AdSense Advertising: Our website incorporates Google AdSense Advertising or similar search engine and display network advertising. Google's advertising principles are available here to ensure a positive user experience. We've implemented features like (a) Remarketing with Google AdSense and (b) Google Display Network Impression Reporting.
• Google DART Cookie: Google, acting as a third-party vendor, employs cookies to serve ads on our Website. The DART cookie enables Google to show ads to users based on their previous visits to our Website and other sites on the Internet. Users can opt-out of the DART cookie by accessing the Google Ad and Content Network privacy policy.
• Cookie Interactions: We and third-party vendors like Google employ first-party cookies (such as Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (like the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together. This helps compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions linked to our Website.
• Google DoubleClick Cookie: We collaborate with Google's DoubleClick Cookie, a third-party vendor utilizing cookies to deliver ads on our Website. The DoubleClick cookie enables Google and its partners to provide users with ads tailored to their visits to our Website or other online platforms. Users can opt out of the DoubleClick Cookie for interest-based advertising via the Google Ads Settings web page here.
• Google Maps/Google Earth: Google Maps (including Google Maps API(s)) and Google Earth are used on our Website. These services may request access to your geolocation and are subject to their own terms of use and privacy policy.

Why Do We Collect Personal Information? 

Text Messages

You hereby provide consent to receive informational and marketing communications and messages from us and our service providers regarding mortgage services. These communications may be conveyed by live agents, artificial, automated, or pre-recorded voices, via email, and through Short Message Service ("SMS") text messages to the phone number you have provided, whether it is your residence, mobile, or another contact number (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Contact Info"). Such communications may be initiated manually or by automated telephone dialing systems. In relation to SMS messages, you acknowledge that standard message and data rates may be applicable.

This consent extends even if your Contact Info is listed on our or our service providers' Do Not Call / Do Not Email List, a State or National Do Not Call Registry, or any other Do Not Contact List. You agree to promptly notify us if you cease using a specific number or address that you have previously provided to us. It is important to note that granting consent for the contact described in this section is not a requirement for purchasing our services, and you acknowledge your ability to withdraw this consent at any time. To do so, you can send an email to unsubscribe@usanationaljustice.com.

You also acknowledge that automated messages or artificial/prerecorded voices may be utilized when the call is answered, whether by you or another individual. Additionally, you agree and acknowledge that we and/or our service providers may listen, record, and retain call recordings between us, our service providers, and you for quality assurance or other lawful purposes, without prior notice, as permitted by relevant laws.

Our services might include SMS messages, with the potential of delivering up to five messages daily to your wireless device. These messages may pertain to your information, purchases, Website updates, surveys, or other informational and service-related matters, including critical security updates. You maintain the option to discontinue these messages by replying "STOP" to the SMS message received. Upon sending "STOP," an SMS message confirming your unsubscribed status will be sent. Subsequently, you will no longer receive SMS messages from us. Should you choose to rejoin, simply follow the initial signup process, and SMS messages will resume. For assistance, respond to a text with "HELP." Message and data rates may be incurred, contingent upon your cell phone plan. Carriers bear no responsibility for delayed or undelivered messages. Alternatively, you may submit a request to halt SMS messages by sending an email to us, specifying the email address and phone number associated with your registration.

Social Media Plugins

We incorporate social media application program interfaces or plug-ins ("Plug-ins") from various social networks, including but not limited to Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Xing, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Pinterest, and possibly others, into our Website. If you choose to register as a user on our platform, you might have the option to sign in using your Facebook or other social media site credentials.

For instance, when you visit our Website, these Plug-ins establish a direct link between your browser and the respective social network's server. This enables the social network to receive information about your visit to our Website, including your IP address. If, while logged into your Facebook account, you click the "Like" button on our Website, you can associate our Website's content with your Facebook profile. Consequently, Facebook may link your visit to our Website with your user account. Please be aware that as the Website provider, we do not receive any information about the content of the data transmitted or its utilization by Facebook. If you prefer Facebook not to link your visit to our Website with your user account, we recommend logging out of your Facebook account.

By taking this action, you grant us permission to access certain information from your social media site account, which can include your public social media profile (subject to your privacy settings on the social media site), email address, interests, likes, gender, birthday, education history, relationships, current city, personal description, photos, friend list, and details about your social media site friends who may share common connections with other users. Plug-ins may automatically transmit information about you to the respective platform without requiring any action on your part. This information could encompass your user identification number on the platform, the website you are currently visiting, and more. Engaging with a Plug-in leads to the direct transfer of information to that Plug-in's corresponding social network, potentially rendering such information visible to others on that platform.

It is important to note that the privacy policies governing Plug-ins are dictated by the respective social network's terms and conditions, not our Privacy Policy. For detailed insight into the privacy practices of a particular platform, you can consult the privacy policy available on their official website.

In instances where we comply with legal requests without prior notice due to these reasons, we will endeavor to notify the affected user after the fact if we determine in good faith that we are no longer legally restricted from doing so, and if the risk scenarios mentioned in this paragraph are deemed not applicable.

The identity and categories of such third parties are likely to change during the lifespan of your account. We stipulate that our third-party service providers only use your Personal Information as required to offer the requested services to us, and each service provider adheres to a set of terms aligned with the relevant sections of this Privacy Policy.

Such information, as well as non-Personal Information, may be aggregated for system management and to monitor Website usage.

This disclosure aims to facilitate considerations of mergers, divestitures, restructuring, reorganizations, dissolutions, changes in control, or sales/transfers of some or all of our assets (referred to as a "Transfer"), whether as a going concern or within bankruptcy, liquidation, or other legal proceedings where our Personal Information constitutes part of the transferred assets. You agree to, and hereby consent to, our assignment, transfer, conveyance, and/or licensing (via contract, merger, or operation of law) of any or all rights, either wholly or partially, in or to Transferred Information, including your consents. This can occur with or without your notice and without requiring your additional consent.

We cannot guarantee the use or transfer of Transferred Information during scenarios like bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership, or an assignment for the benefit of creditors. By sharing any Personal Information, you explicitly consent to the use and/or transfer of Transferred Information in conjunction with a Transfer. Furthermore, except as legally mandated, we bear no responsibility for any security breaches by third parties or actions taken by third parties who receive Transferred Information disclosed to us.

Data Transfer/Access Outside of the United States

Our headquarters are located in both Canada and the United States. The Personal Information gathered by us or our service providers might be stored and processed on servers located within or outside the United States, as well as in facilities across the globe where we and our service providers operate. Consequently, certain information may be accessible to individuals or entities outside the United States who are engaged in providing services for us. This means that we and our service providers may transfer your Personal Information to, or access it from, jurisdictions that may not offer data protection standards equivalent to those in your home jurisdiction. We will take reasonable measures to ensure that your Personal Information benefits from an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions where it is processed.

Security

We have established safeguards designed to protect your Personal Information against accidental loss and unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. Your Personal Information is stored behind secure networks and firewalls, and it is accessible only to our authorized personnel and a limited number of Service Providers who possess special access privileges and are bound to maintain its confidentiality. Regular security scans are conducted on our Website to identify and address any potential vulnerabilities, ensuring a secure browsing experience.

Any payment transactions you make will be conducted through third-party payment processors or gateways that employ appropriate security protocols to safeguard your information. We do not collect or retain complete credit card numbers.

Our agents, contractors, service providers, and partners who require access to your Personal Information to fulfill services on our or your behalf are also obligated to maintain its confidentiality in line with this Privacy Policy. They are prohibited from disclosing the information to external parties or using it for any purpose other than providing the services as required by us or our agreement with them.

The security of your information also depends on your actions. Maintaining good internet security practices is crucial. When you have password-protected access to your account or specific parts of the Website or Services, it's your responsibility to keep your password confidential and not share it with anyone. Preventing unauthorized access to your account and Personal Information is important. Choose and safeguard your password properly and restrict access to your computer, mobile device, and browser by logging out after using your account.

If your email or social media accounts are compromised, they could be used to gain unauthorized access to your account with us if you've shared those details or granted access through those accounts. In case of such a compromise, promptly update your account credentials with us, especially ensuring that the compromised account can't grant access to your account with us.

Information shared in public areas might be visible to other users. Be cautious when sharing sensitive information. We will never request your password or other account login details via email. If you receive such an email, please forward it to us for investigation.

Data Retention

The duration for which we keep your Personal Information is contingent upon the purposes for which we utilize it. We will hold onto your Personal Information for the duration of your active account or as long as you remain a registered user of our Services. Additionally, we may retain it for other legitimate business motives, such as tax, legal, or operational necessities. After these periods, we will not retain your information for longer than what is stipulated by applicable law, our records retention policy, or what's reasonably needed for internal reporting, reconciliation, or to fulfill any information requests you may have. This retention timeline is subject to potential adjustments based on our periodic review.

Upon the conclusion or deactivation of your user account, we may maintain your profile details and all information shared in public areas of the Website. Although we may retain your Personal Information and other data post-account termination or deactivation, we will treat it as confidential as outlined in the Terms and this Privacy Policy, and in compliance with relevant laws. We possess the right to delete all your Personal Information and other data upon termination of your user account without prior notification.

We may choose to retain De-Identified Personal Information for a duration that we consider suitable.

Your Consent is Important to Us

Maintaining your privacy is of utmost importance to us, which is why we gather, utilize, and reveal your Personal Information only with your consent. Depending on the sensitivity of the information, your consent may be expressed, implied, or deemed (through an opt-out method). Express consent can be granted orally, electronically, or in writing. Implied consent arises when your actions or inaction reasonably indicate agreement. For instance, when you engage in an agreement with us, we assume your consent for collecting, using, and disclosing your Personal Information for tasks connected to that agreement, as well as any other purposes communicated to you at that juncture.

Typically, we will request your consent during the point of collecting your Personal Information. In specific situations, we might obtain your consent after collection but before employing or revealing your Personal Information. If we intend to utilize or disclose your Personal Information for a purpose not previously specified (as outlined in this Privacy Policy or separately), we will strive to notify you of that purpose before executing such use or disclosure.

However, as previously detailed, we may gather, use, or disclose your Personal Information without your awareness or consent as allowed or required by applicable laws or regulatory stipulations.

Choice/Opt-Out

You have the right to modify or retract your consent at any point, taking into account legal or contractual obligations and providing reasonable notice. To do so, you can get in touch with our Privacy Officer using the contact details provided below. Any communications related to changing or withdrawing your consent should be in written form and directed to our Privacy Officer.

However, please note that in specific situations, withdrawing your consent might impact our ability to continue offering products or services that require the collection, use, or disclosure of your Personal Information.

Unless you inform us otherwise, we will assume that you have granted consent for the collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information in accordance with the explanations provided in this Privacy Policy.

How is Your Personal Information Protected?

We strive to uphold suitable physical, technical, and procedural measures tailored to the sensitivity of the specific Personal Information. These precautions are intended to mitigate the risks of loss, unauthorized access, copying, use, alteration, or disclosure of your Personal Information.

Ensuring the security of your Personal Information is a top priority for us. If you encounter any incident involving the loss, unauthorized access, or disclosure of Personal Information under our custody or control, please promptly inform our Privacy Officer.

Updating Your Personal Information

Maintaining accurate and up-to-date information in our records is crucial. Should your Personal Information change while our relationship is ongoing, kindly notify our Customer Care department about the update. If you encounter any challenges with the Customer Care department, please feel free to reach out to our Privacy Officer using the provided contact details.

There might be cases where we cannot accommodate your request to modify your Personal Information. Instead, we may choose to add an alternative note to the relevant record in such situations.

Access to Your Personal Information

You have the option to request access to your Personal Information. If you wish to review, verify, or correct your Personal Information, please get in touch with our Customer Care department. In the event that our Customer Care department is unable to assist, please reach out to our Privacy Officer using the provided contact details. It's important to note that any such requests should be submitted in writing.

When making a request to access your Personal Information, please be aware that we might ask for specific details to confirm your identity and your right to access. This will also help us locate and provide you with the relevant Personal Information we hold about you. There could be a fee associated with accessing your Personal Information, which we will inform you about in advance. If you require guidance in formulating your request, you can contact our Customer Care department. If the Customer Care department is unable to assist, please connect with our Privacy Officer using the provided contact information.

While you have the right to access your Personal Information, it's important to understand that this right is not absolute. In some cases, applicable laws or regulatory requirements might allow or compel us to decline providing certain or all of the Personal Information we hold about you. Additionally, there could be instances where the Personal Information has been disposed of, erased, or anonymized in accordance with our obligations and practices for retaining records.

In situations where we cannot grant you access to your Personal Information, we will make an effort to provide you with an explanation, considering any legal or regulatory limitations.
