Effective date: October 10, 2026
Credit & Income ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

SMS Data Protection Statement
No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
4. When We Share Information
We share information only in these limited cases:
Service providers that help us run Credit & Income, such as our website host, email and text message providers, our customer relationship software, and our payment processor. They may use your information only to provide services to us and must keep it confidential.
Legal requirements. If required by law, a court order, or a valid law enforcement request, or to protect our rights.
Business transfer. If Credit & Income is sold or merged, your information stays protected under this policy.
5. Data Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and secure backups. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
