We use interest-based advertising to deliver advertisements and other targeted content to you, including through third-party advertising companies which we may permit to track your visits to the sites. These third parties may use these technologies to collect information about you when you use the sites and your other online activities. They may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. They may also use persistent identifiers to track your Internet usage across other websites and devices in their networks beyond the sites. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based advertising or other targeted content.

You can learn more about the options available to limit these third parties’ collection and use of your information by visiting the websites of the Network Advertising Initiative and the Digital Advertising Alliance, as well as the web pages for Facebook’s ad preferences tool og privacy policy. If you choose to opt-out via web-based tools, a cookie will be placed on your browser indicating your decision. This cookie is specific to a particular device and browser, so if you use different browsers or devices, you will need to opt out of each. In addition, because the opt-out is facilitated via cookies, if you clear your cookies you will need to opt out again.

Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell any of your Personal Information, including your name, mailing address or email address, to any companies.

Psalms Finance also does not disclose your Personal Information to third parties, except as described in this policy. Third-party disclosures may include sharing such information with non-affiliated companies that perform support services for your account or facilitate your transactions with Psalms Finance, including those that provide professional, legal or accounting advice to Psalms Finance. Non-affiliated companies that assist Psalms Finance in providing services to you are required to maintain the confidentiality of such information to the extent they receive it and to use your Personal Information only in the course of providing such services and only for the purposes that we dictate.

We may also disclose your Personal Information to fulfil your instructions, to protect or exercise our rights and interests and those of our business partners, or as part of a corporate transaction with a successor or affiliate or in connection with any acquisition, merger, or sale of equity or assets, or pursuant to your express consent. Under limited circumstances, your Personal Information may be disclosed to third parties as permitted by, or to comply with, applicable laws and regulations or as required by law enforcement officials; for instance, when responding to a subpoena, court order or similar legal process, to protect against fraud and unauthorized transactions, and to otherwise cooperate with law enforcement or regulatory authorities.

Your Choices

Psalms Finance will review any request for access to or deletion of your Personal Information, and/or correct or amend any of the Personal Information you have provided to us, but Psalms Finance reserves the right to deny such requests as allowed by law. You can make a request by calling 646 583 3045 or emailing us at privacy@psalmsfinance.com. Please include your name, address, and/or email address when you contact us. We will not treat you any differently should you request access to or deletion of your personal information.

We will let you know if your request is denied. Access can be denied when, for example: giving one person access would compromise another’s privacy rights; disclosure is likely to interfere with the safeguarding of national security, defence, or public security; or disclosure could interfere with law enforcement or legal actions. These are only examples, and access may be denied in other situations in compliance with applicable laws.
