Privacy Policy
Effective Date — July 31, 2025
1. Who We Are
CompareCashAdvance.com ("we," "our," "the Site") is owned and operated by Falcon Media LLC. We operate solely as a personal-loan lead generator and independent comparison service that helps visitors discover cash-advance and earned-wage-access ("EWA") products offered by third-party providers. We are not a lender and do not broker or fund loans. We may receive compensation when you click an offer or complete a transaction with a partner.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Policy explains how we handle information when you:
- visit or interact with the Site;
- answer optional screening questions (e.g., "How much do you need?" or "EWA vs. Cash Advance"); or
- click an offer that takes you to a third-party provider.
3. Information We Collect
We purposely keep data collection minimal and do not ask for or store personally identifiable information ("PII") such as your name, email address, phone number, Social Security number, or bank details.
| Category | Examples | Why we collect it |
|---|---|---|
| Non-PII analytics & technical data | truncated IP address, browser type, device ID, pages viewed, time on page, referring URL | Site performance, fraud prevention, audience measurement (Google Analytics) |
| Preference inputs | Loan-amount range, product type (EWA vs. Cash Advance) | Show the most relevant third-party offer |
Analytics data are anonymized or aggregated so they cannot reasonably identify you.
4. Cookies & Similar Technologies
We use first-party and third-party cookies (e.g., Google Analytics, Google Ads) to:
- understand how visitors use the Site;
- measure ad-campaign effectiveness;
- prevent duplicate impression counts.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings; the Site will still function, but analytics accuracy may be reduced.
Global Privacy Control (GPC). If your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out of analytics cookies for that session.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade data. Non-PII analytics reports may be shared with service providers (hosting, analytics) under confidentiality obligations. When you click an offer link, you leave our Site and provide information directly to that third-party provider under its own privacy policy.
6. Third-Party Links & Affiliate Disclosure
Our comparison pages link to external websites we do not control. We may earn a referral fee when you click a link or complete an action with a partner. Review each provider's privacy policy and terms before submitting personal information to them; this Policy no longer applies once you leave CompareCashAdvance.com.
7. Data Security
We use industry-standard safeguards (HTTPS, firewall, least-privilege access) to protect data stored on our servers. No website can guarantee absolute security, but we strive to protect information in our possession.
8. Your Privacy Choices
- Analytics opt-out — Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or disable cookies.
- Global Privacy Control (GPC) — We honor GPC signals as an opt-out of analytics tracking.
- "Do Not Track" — We do not alter behavior in response to DNT signals, but we collect only non-PII.
- California (CCPA/CPRA) — Because we do not collect PII or sell data, we are largely exempt from CCPA sale/share requirements. If you believe non-PII we hold could identify you, contact us (Section 11) to request deletion.
9. Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for U.S. consumers 18 years or older. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you become aware of such data, contact us and we will delete it.
10. Policy Updates
We review this Policy at least once every 12 months. We may update it sooner if legal or operational requirements change. Changes become effective when posted here with the "Effective Date" above. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the revised Policy.
