By accessing the fmsi.biz website (the “Website”), you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions (the “Terms”). Please read these Terms carefully. If you do not agree to these Terms, please exit the Website immediately.

Loan Referral Service

Our loan referral service (the “Service”) connects consumers with prospective lenders participating in our network (the “Lender Partners”). To use the Service, you must complete an online request form (a “Request Form”) that requests personal information from you, including your name, address, telephone number, email address, social security number, bank account information, and employment information. Our collection and use of this information is subject to the Website’s Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms.

Credit Decisions

fmsi.biz is not a lender and does not make loans or credit decisions. fmsi.biz does not guarantee that any Lender Partner will offer you a loan or that any loan offer will contain any specific loan terms or conditions. fmsi.biz does not guarantee that the price, product, availability, rates, fees, or any other loan terms offered and made available by Lender Partners through the Service are the best terms available in the market.

Once you submit a Request Form, fmsi.biz shares your information with our Lender Partners. By submitting a Request Form, you understand and agree that you requesting loan offers from the Lender Partners. You are also agreeing that fmsi.biz and the Lender Partners may contact you by any means (including email, telephone, SMS, and direct mail) so that they may assist in processing your Request Form or provide information to you about additional offers now or in the future.

Lender Partners who receive your Request Form review your information in real-time to determine whether your information meets the Lender Partner’s underwriting criteria. Lender Partners may use your Request Form information to perform a credit check. This credit check may be a formal credit inquiry which leaves a record on your credit report and may affect your credit score (a “Hard Check”). Or it could be an informal inquiry which will not affect your credit (a “Soft Check”). These credit checks may be performed through TransUnion, Equifax, or Experian (the “Big Three”) or they may be performed through other alternative credit reporting agencies or data aggregators (such as Microbilt, Teletrack, DP Bureau, or DataX) that track consumer transactions with lending institutions. By submitting your Request Form, you agree to allow Lender Partners to review, verify, and research your information in such a manner.

If a Lender Partner determines that your Request Form meets its underwriting criteria, your browser will be redirected to the lender’s website. You understand and agree that, once you have been redirected to the lender’s website, fmsi.biz has no further involvement in the loan registration or decision process. Your interactions with the lender are subject to privacy policy, terms of use, and other policies or terms enforced by that lender.

Electronic Disclosure

By Submitting your Request Form you agree to receive notifications, disclosures, and other documents and communications both from fmsi.biz and from our Lender Partners. If you are connected to a Lender Partner, that lender may require you to execute an electronic loan contract. This electronic loan contract will be as binding as a loan contract in paper form. And your electronic signature will be as valid as a physical signature on a paper loan contract.

The lender may also require you to consent to receiving all notifications regarding your loan electronically. These electronic communications may include attempts to collect a debt.

Additionally, the lender may require you to access documents related to a loan, including your loan contract. By Submitting your Request Form you agree to this form of access.

The lender may allow you to withdraw your consent to electronic disclosures. Please contact the lender with whom you were connected to learn more about this process. Please note, however, that not consenting to receive electronic disclosures may affect your ability to receive a loan from a Lender Partner.

Accuracy

You represent that the information you provide to fmsi.biz, and ultimately, the Lender Partners, through your Request Form is accurate and truthful. If the information in your Request Form is not accurate and truthful, fmsi.biz may deny, suspend, or terminate your use of the Service.

fmsi.biz may change any information, features, or functions of the Service without prior notice. fmsi.biz may deny you access to all or part of the Service without prior notice if you engage in any conduct or activities that fmsi.biz determines, in its sole discretion, violate these Terms, the rights of fmsi.biz or any third party, or is otherwise inappropriate. fmsi.biz is not responsible for any errors or delays in providing Service caused by errors in the Request Form information provided by you or by any technical problems beyond its reasonable control.
