Privacy Policy

Overview

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) applies to data collected by Lexington Capital Holdings, Inc. The Policy has two parts:

Part 1 provides our U.S. Privacy Policy, including our Privacy Policy for lexingtoncapitalholdings.com (“Website”), Part 2 is our California Supplement, which provides our California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) Privacy Policy. The CCPA provides various rights to consumers who reside in California with regard to personal information. A natural person, including a business owner or guarantor, is considered to be a consumer under the CCPA. Any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in Part 2.

Part 1: Lexington Capital Holdings US Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personal information and how you can access and update such information. For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means information that personally identifies you, including your contact information, IP address, and loan application information. A large portion of the Personal Information we collect, use, share, and store is sensitive in nature, including your social security number and financial account information (“Sensitive Personal Information”).

Information We Collect

We collect the following information from you:

Contact information such as name, business name, email address, mailing address, and phone number;
Financial information such as bank statements, credit card statements, your average bank balance, personal and business credit history, payment behavior, bank account information, and tax ID number;
Social security number;
Unique identifiers such as user name and password, and IP address;
Business information including company size, and business type, and
Beneficial ownership information*

In addition to collecting information via our Website and Mobile App, we may also conduct a site visit to collect information, and obtain information and external data used by lenders to process applications and complete and manage transactions, e.g., from credit reporting agencies and other vendors, as well as from social media. Once you are an Lexington Capital Holdings customer, we may reach out to you for, or otherwise obtain, information if you decide to renew your loan or as otherwise needed to provide the Service.

* When required in the U.S., we will collect information on the beneficial owners of our business customers for purposes of verifying their identity only. The U.S. Government implemented the beneficial ownership regulation to help deter financial crimes. By complying, we are doing part in upholding the regulation to protect the financial system. Pursuant to our privacy policies and procedures, we will maintain beneficial ownership information in our system of record.

We use the information we collect to:

Compile, save, use and analyze your Personal Information in both a personally identifiable form and as part of aggregated data;

Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides consumers, including owners/guarantors of small business loans (California residents), with specific rights regarding their personal information. Lexington Capital Holdings is providing these rights to California consumer residents who have provided their personal information as part of an Lexington Capital Holdings application or loan. This section describes the CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights:

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (“Request”), we will disclose to you:

The categories of information we collected about you.
The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information.
The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).

Deletion Request Rights:

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

Exceptions

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
Debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided by law.
Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code Section 1546 seq.).
Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the deletion of the information may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with expectations based on your relationship with us.
Comply with a legal obligation, such as retaining personal information collected to verify/identify under federal anti-money laundering laws (“AML”).
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access. Data Portability and Deletion Rights

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State or other state agency that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a Request related to your personal information.

You may only make a Request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The Request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate and respond to it.

We can’t respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a Request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a Request to verify your identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a Request in writing within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of the Request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we can’t comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide the information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or response to your Request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not, because you have exercised rights under the CCPA:

Deny you goods or services.
Charge you different prices 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.
