WeFinance Co. (the “Company”) is committed to maintaining robust privacy protections for its users. Our Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is designed to help you understand how we collect, use and safeguard the information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our Service.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Service” refers to the Company’s service which can be accessed via our website at www.wefinance.co. in which users can participate as borrowers and lenders in direct peer-to-peer loans. The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Company. “You” refers to you, as a user of Service. By accepting our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use (found at www.wefinance.co/terms), you consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
To activate the Service you do not need to submit any Personal Information. To use some components of the Service thereafter, you do not need to submit further Personal Information. However, in an effort to improve the quality of the Service, we track information provided to us by your browser or by our software application when you view or use the Service, such as the website you came from (known as the “referring URL”), the type of browser you use, the device from which you connected to the Service, the time and date of access, and other information that does not personally identify you. We track this information using cookies, or small text files which include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to a user’s browser from our servers and are stored on the user’s computer hard drive.
Sending a cookie to a user’s browser enables us to collect Non-Personal information about that user and keep a record of the user’s preferences when utilizing our services, both on an individual and aggregate basis. For example, the Company may use cookies to collect the following information: Views on existing loan listings, views on informational resources provided by the Service, information provided in a loan listing or pledge currently in process.
The Company may use both persistent and session cookies; persistent cookies remain on your computer after you close your session and until you delete them, while session cookies expire when you close your browser.
In addition to the information provided automatically by your browser when you visit the Site, to become a user of the Service you will need to create a personal profile. You can create a profile by registering with the Service via Facebook Login. Additional methods of registration may also be made available in the future at our discretion.

Personal Information:
Except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, we do not sell, trade, rent or otherwise share for marketing purposes your Personal Information with third parties without your consent. We do share Personal Information with vendors who are performing services for the Company, such as the servers for our email communications who are provided access to user’s email address for purposes of sending emails from us, or payment processing services in the course of carrying out the terms of a loan made with the Service. Those vendors use your Personal Information only at our direction and in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We may also share personal information in the process when doing so is necessary in the proper execution of aspects of the service you voluntarily choose to participate in. For example, if you choose to make a loan pledge on our platform, your full name may be shared with the borrower in order that you both are furnished with a proper loan contract, and a copy of the contract with your electronic signature may be made available to the other party.
We only execute financial transactions with the information you provide us as you authorize us to do so when using the service. However, we do perform routine passive non-financial transactions with the data you provide us in cases where we can improve your use of the Service by doing so. For example, if you provide us with account information for a payment vendor, we may interact with that vendor’s services to ensure that the information we need to process your transactions on the Service is accurate and contact you if that is not the case.
In general, the Personal Information you provide to us is used to help us communicate with you. For example, we use Personal Information to contact users in response to questions, solicit feedback from users, provide technical support, and inform users about promotional offers.
Non-Personal Information:
In general, we use Non-Personal Information to help us improve the Service and customize the user experience. We also aggregate Non-Personal Information in order to track trends and analyze use patterns on the Site. This Privacy Policy does not limit in any way our use or disclosure of Non-Personal Information and we reserve the right to use and disclose such Non-Personal Information to our partners, advertisers and other third parties at our discretion.
In the event we undergo a business transaction such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your Personal Information may be among the assets transferred. You acknowledge and consent that such transfers may occur and are permitted by this Privacy Policy, and that any acquirer of our assets may continue to process your Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
