In this policy, "Service" refers to the Hope Relief loan consultancy and facilitation platform. Our goal is to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. If there are any terms in this privacy policy that you do not agree with, please discontinue use of our Sites and our services immediately.

2. Information We Collect

• Automated Technologies: As you interact with our website, we may automatically collect Technical Data about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns. This is collected using cookies, server logs, and other similar technologies.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

These pixels help us:
