Lady's First Group ("Lady's First," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit ladysfirstgroup.com or apply for funding through us, how we use it, and the choices you have. Lady's First Group is a funding facilitation service that helps women-owned businesses — including the many that traditional banks turn away — access the capital they need through a network of funding partners. We are not a bank.
By using our website or submitting an application, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
We do not obtain a credit inquiry to pre-qualify your request. A credit inquiry — which may affect your score — is performed only if you choose to move forward and expressly authorize it as part of accepting an offer.
If you apply or opt in, we may contact you by email, phone, or text message about your request and our services. Message and data rates may apply to text messages. You can opt out of marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in the email or by writing to hello@ladysfirstgroup.com, and you can stop text messages by replying STOP. We may still send transactional messages related to an active application.
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work as intended if you do.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards — including SSL/TLS encryption in transit — designed to protect the information you share with us. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We keep your information for as long as needed to provide our services, maintain business and accounting records, resolve disputes, and meet our legal obligations. When it is no longer needed, we take steps to delete or de-identify it.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to opt out of certain sharing. To make a request, email hello@ladysfirstgroup.com. We will respond consistent with applicable law and may need to verify your identity before acting on your request.
Our site and emails may link to third-party websites or services we do not control, including our application provider and funding partners. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and we encourage you to review them.
Our services are intended for business owners and are not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and post the changes on this page. Your continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
