Users may be referred to herein as Business Affiliates or as You/Yours. If You access or use the Digital Property on behalf of a legal entity, references to You refer to both the individual user and such entity.

This policy may be updated at any time by replacement or updates, which may be without prior notification. Please refer to the last modified date from time to time for updates.

We use Non-PII and PII collected incident to the services We provide under contract with lenders, loan managers, and associated vendors (“Business Affiliates”). We also use information collected to coordinate with Business Affiliates to provide such services. We are provided PII by Business Affiliates and We disclose or share PII with Business Affiliates as provided in this privacy policy.

By using or accessing Our site and associated Digital Property, You are subject to the terms of this privacy statement and consent to these privacy practices, including Our use and disclosure of Your PII for the purposes described below.

Information Collected and Use: We collect both PII and Non-PII information through Our site. Business Affiliates should reference any agreements with Us to confirm how information is procured and handled independent of use of Our site or Our Digital Property.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information (“Non-PII”): Land Gorilla collects Non-PII about site and Digital Property use, including the number of unique visitors to Our site, the frequency of visits and authorization and access to Digital Property, public Internet Protocol address, browser type, referring or exit pages and URLs related to traffic, landing pages, and pages viewed. Data regarding use is reviewed summarily and not on an individual basis, nor is the data aggregated in an attempt to identify probabilistic identifiers. We may combine information of all users such that it is not personally identifiable as to any user. We gather this data to facilitate and improve the site and Digital Property function. Non-PII data helps Us improve Our products and business. We use standard technologies to collect information such as:

  • Log Information and IP Addresses: An IP address is the unique numeric identifier assigned to each computer browser accessing the Internet. We collect traffic data by tracking user IP addresses. An IP address, by itself, cannot identify You personally. Though when combined with other information provided by Your Internet service provider, Your IP address can be used to identify the computer originating a message, We do not use them as a source of probabilistic identifiers for any reason. When You use Our site or Digital Property or view content provided by Us on Our Site, We automatically collect and store certain information in Our server logs. We may track details of how and what Digital Property is accessed, date and time of access, IP address information described above, web pages that have been viewed, domain type, device event information such as crashes, system activity, hardware, settings, browser type, browser language, and referral URL.

  • Pixel Tags (Beacons): Pixel tags, also known as beacons or clear GIFs, are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users.
