Privacy Policy

 

This Privacy Policy explains what information Credit Range may process, why it is needed, how it may be transmitted, protected, retained, or shared, and what choices and rights users may have regarding their information.

By installing, opening, registering for, accessing, or using Credit Range, users acknowledge that they have read and understood this Privacy Policy. Users who do not agree with this Privacy Policy should discontinue use of the App.

Sharing and Disclosure of Information

 

Credit Range does not sell, rent, or trade users’ personal information.

 

Information may be shared only where reasonably necessary for service operation, account protection, compliance, or lawful requirements.

 

Recipients may include:

Service providers and partners are expected to process information only for authorized purposes and to apply appropriate confidentiality, security, and data-protection measures.

 

Information may also be disclosed where reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, protect users or accounts, enforce applicable terms, maintain service security, resolve disputes, or comply with lawful requests.

 

Third-Party Services

 

Credit Range may rely on third-party providers for identity verification, KYC, compliance, fraud prevention, security, hosting, storage, infrastructure, analytics, attribution, diagnostics, customer support, and other operational functions.

 

Third-party providers may process information only where necessary to provide their services to Credit Range or where required by applicable law.

 

External websites, applications, or services not controlled by Credit Range may maintain separate privacy policies. Credit Range is not responsible for the independent privacy practices of those external services.

 

Information Security

 

Credit Range applies reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal and technical information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

 

These measures may include:

 

• Encryption in transit

• Access controls

• Internal authorization procedures

• Internal permission restrictions

• System monitoring

• Periodic security reviews

• Technical safeguards for sensitive information

• Operational controls designed to reduce unauthorized access or misuse

 

Access to sensitive information is limited to authorized personnel or service providers with a legitimate operational, support, security, compliance, or legal need.

 

Although Credit Range applies reasonable safeguards, no digital transmission, storage method, or information system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users should also protect their device, account credentials, and verification information.

 

Storage and Retention

 

Credit Range retains information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

 

Retention periods may depend on:

Information collected for a particular verification, security, or technical process may be removed after that process is completed unless continued retention is necessary for legal compliance, regulatory requirements, fraud prevention, security, account protection, dispute resolution, enforcement of account-related obligations, or other lawful operational purposes.

 

When information is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymized according to applicable requirements and Credit Range’s data-retention practices.

 

Different categories of information may be retained for different periods depending on their purpose, sensitivity, account status, legal requirements, and security relevance.

 

Permissions and User Choices

 

Users may manage applicable App permissions through their Android device settings.

 

Depending on the Android version and permission type, permissions may be granted, denied, or withdrawn at any time.

 

Disabling a permission required for identity verification, KYC, document capture, face or liveness verification, device security review, fraud prevention, service-availability checks, account protection, eligibility review, or another account-related process may prevent that process from being completed or may limit access to certain Credit Range functions.

 

Users may also choose not to provide certain information. Where that information is required for verification, security, compliance, or account services, the relevant function may be restricted or unavailable.

 

User Privacy Rights

 

Depending on applicable law, users may have the right to:

 

• Request access to personal information processed by Credit Range

• Request correction of inaccurate information

• Request updates to personal information

• Withdraw applicable permissions

Privacy requests may be subject to identity verification and applicable legal, regulatory, security, fraud-prevention, account-protection, dispute-resolution, and compliance requirements.

 

Account and Data Deletion

 

Users may request deletion of their Credit Range account and eligible associated information through the Data Deletion section on the Credit Range website, or by contacting:

 

mail@creditrange.net

 

A valid deletion request will be reviewed and processed within 15 business days after receipt, unless additional time or continued retention is required by applicable legal, regulatory, fraud-prevention, security, dispute-resolution, compliance, or lawful operational requirements.

Credit Range does not knowingly collect or process personal information from individuals under the age of 18.

 

If we become aware that information from an individual under 18 has been processed, we will take reasonable steps to delete or restrict that information within a reasonable period, subject to applicable legal, security, fraud-prevention, or compliance requirements.
