A. Our Commitment to Privacy
Entrust Cash Advance and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities (collectively, (“Entrust”) realize the importance of respecting and protecting your privacy.
This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) discloses the information that Entrust gathers on the network of web sites that Entrust owns and/or operates (collectively, the “Sites”), as well as ways in which Entrust processes and, sometimes, shares such information and how you can correct or change that information. As of the date that this Privacy Policy was last updated, Entrust’s Sites include https://www.EntrustCashAdvance.com and https://www.EntrustMS.com (collectively, the “Sites”).
Except where otherwise expressly indicated herein or on a Site, this Privacy Policy applies only to information collected on the Sites and does not apply to information collected outside of the Sites. Before using or submitting information to any of the Sites, please review this Privacy Policy carefully.
Certain areas of Entrust’s Sites contain information intended only for users who create an account, join or otherwise register to use any of the Sites (“Registered Users”) and Entrust reserves the right to limit these areas to Registered Users. This Privacy Policy addresses Entrust’s privacy practices relating to general use of the Sites, as well as use of the Sites by Registered Users.
B. Information Entrust Collects
Entrust collects the following types of information from users of the Sites:
1. Personally Identifiable Information
Entrust may receive and store any information that you enter on any of the Sites or provide to Entrust in any other way that would allow Entrust to identify you or contact you (collectively “Personally Identifiable Information”). The Personally Identifiable Information that you provide will be used by Entrust only in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Examples of Personally Identifiable Information Entrust may collect from you and use are:
- your name, address, phone number(s), e-mail address, date of birth, nationality and gender if you are a Registered User or are otherwise asked to provide such information
- the names and e-mail addresses of those who communicate with Entrust by e-mail
- information you provide about yourself, including, but not limited to your name, e-mail address, date of birth, nationality, gender and preferences, that you provide when you register.
2. Automatic Information
Entrust may receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with Entrust through the Sites. We automatically receive and record your browser information, operating system information, IP address, cookie information and the page you requested. This information will not be stored in a manner that is personally identifiable with you and may include the following:
(a) Aggregate Information
In connection with your visit to any of the Sites, Entrust may automatically collect usage information, such as the numbers and frequency of users and their characteristics and information about similar groups of users, such as parents, certain age groups or users that live in a particular geographical area. This data is only used in the aggregate as a statistical measure and not in a manner that would identify you personally. Aggregate information generally is collected through the use of cookies.
(b) Cookies
Entrust uses “cookies” to help you access and navigate the Sites more efficiently and to statistically monitor how many people are using the Sites. A “cookie” is a small file or tool stored on your hard drive containing information that allows Entrust to deliver customized information to you. If you become a Registered User, Entrust may use cookies to store your e-mail address, user name, preferences and password so that Entrust can identify you when you return to the Sites, track your use of the Sites and customize the Sites for you. You may set your browser to notify you of or decline the receipt of cookies. Certain features of the Sites may not, however, function properly or be available if your browser is configured to disable cookies.
Entrust uses both “session” and “persistent” cookies on the Sites. Session cookies are temporary bits of information that are erased once you exit your web browser or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies are more permanent bits of information that are placed on the hard drive of your computer and stay there unless you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of reasons, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (i.e., username and password), helping to determine what areas of the Sites you find most valuable and customizing the Sites based on your preferences on an ongoing basis.
Many companies offer programs that help you to visit web sites anonymously. While Entrust will not be able to provide you with a personalized experience if Entrust cannot recognize you, Entrust wants you to be aware that these programs are available.
(c) Information Collected by Third Parties
Entrust may allow third parties to display advertisements on the Sites. Entrust and these third parties may use tracking technologies, such as cookies to collect information about users who view or interact with these advertisements and connect to the Sites.
(d) Ad Servers
Entrust, its partners and/or advertisers may use third party ad servers to serve or present the ads that appear on the Sites and to conduct research about the advertisements. Any of these ad servers may collect non-personal information, such as your browser, operating system, date/time of viewing, IP address and clickstream data. Entrust cannot control the activities of such advertisers or web sites. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS POLICY DOES NOT COVER THE COLLECTION AND USE OF INFORMATION BY SUCH AD SERVERS. Below is a representative list of ad servers and a link to their privacy policies.
(e) E-mail Communications
When you send an e-mail to Entrust, either through a form on a Site or otherwise, Entrust may retain your e-mail address and the contents of the e-mail that you send. This Privacy Policy does not apply to content, business information, ideas, concepts or inventions that you send to Entrust by e-mail. Please refer to Entrust’s for Entrust’s policy with respect to such information. If you want to keep the information in your e-mail(s) or posting(s) private or proprietary, please do not send such information in an e-mail or otherwise post such information to Entrust. To help Entrust make its e-mails more interesting and helpful, Entrust also may receive a confirmation when you open an e-mail from Entrust if your computer supports this type of program.
C. How Entrust Uses Information

4. Sale or Transfer of Information
In the event of a sale, merger, liquidation, dissolution or sale or transfer of substantially all of the assets of Entrust or any Site, personal Information and/or other information collected about you from the Sites may be sold, assigned or transferred to the party acquiring all or substantially all of the equity and/or assets of Entrust or any Site in order to permit the party to continue the operation of the applicable Site, including the Registered User Areas.

Entrust encourage you to review and understand the privacy policies of these web sites before providing any information to them.

Therefore, although Entrust takes steps to secure your information, Entrust does not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information, searches or other communications will always remain secure. In the event of a breach of the confidentiality or security of your information, including your Personally Identifiable Information, Entrust will notify you as necessary and if possible so you can take appropriate protective steps. Entrust may notify you under such circumstances using the e-mail address(es) that Entrust has on record for you and/or by regular mail (if available).

Entrust does not knowingly market to, solicit information, accept service or collect information from children under the age of 18. In the future, the Sites may ask users for their birth dates to ensure that the Sites are not collecting information from children under age 18 or to identify when additional steps may need to be taken in connection with information collected from children under age 18. When a Site has actual knowledge that it collects information from children or offers a service directed toward children, it will comply with applicable laws, including the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act.
