Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect certain technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring and exit pages, and general usage data (such as pages viewed and time spent on the Site). We may use cookies or similar tracking technologies for this purpose. You can typically adjust your browser settings to decline cookies, though doing so may limit some functionality of the Site.

Information From Third Parties

If your application or inquiry involves a lender, credit bureau, or other third-party service provider, we may receive information about you from those parties in order to assist with your mortgage or real estate transaction, such as credit reports, verification of employment or income, or property valuation information.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiry and communicate with you about our services;
  • Assist in the processing of a mortgage loan application or real estate transaction, subject to formal application and underwriting by the applicable lender;
  • Verify your identity and the accuracy of information you provide;
  • Comply with applicable federal and state laws, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 U.S.C. § 6801 et seq.), TRID/RESPA requirements, and California DRE regulations;
  • Maintain internal records for regulatory, audit, and quality-assurance purposes;
  • Detect, investigate, and prevent fraud or other unlawful activity; and
  • Improve and maintain the Site.

We do not use your information for any purpose materially different from those described above without providing you notice or obtaining consent where required by law.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information for money and do not act as a data broker. We may share your information with:

  • Lenders, wholesale lenders, and other licensed mortgage professionals involved in processing your inquiry or application;
  • Jotform, our third-party form and e-signature service provider, which processes and stores form submissions and signed documents on our behalf;

  • Government agencies or regulators, where required by law or in connection with a regulatory examination; and
  • Professional advisors, such as attorneys or auditors, where necessary to protect our legal rights or comply with legal obligations.

We require that third parties who receive your information use it only for the purposes for which it was shared and handle it consistent with applicable law.

5. Electronic Signatures and Form Processing

If you sign a document electronically through the Site, that signature is captured and processed through Jotform’s e-signature feature. Your signed document, along with associated identifying information such as timestamp and IP address, is stored by Jotform and transmitted to us. Please refer to our Terms of Use & Consent Disclosure, presented on the application page, for additional information about electronic signature consent. Our general site-wide Terms of Service are available at andraderes.com/terms.

6. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of your information.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, including any applicable regulatory retention requirements. Mortgage loan application and related documentation is generally retained for a minimum of three years and up to seven years, consistent with federal and state recordkeeping requirements applicable to mortgage brokers.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your state of residence, you may have rights to know what personal information we have collected about you, to request correction or deletion of certain information, or to opt out of the sale or sharing of certain personal information, such as rights available to California residents under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).
