Terms of Use

Welcome to www.privatemoni.com. Private Money Lenders, LLC, a California limited liability company, together with its subsidiaries and other corporate affiliates (“PML,” “we,” or “us”), provides the website at www.privatemoni.com, including any subdomain (the “Site”), and together with the PML service and network, including any new features and applications (the “Service”).

You signify that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these terms of use (as they may be amended from time to time, the “Terms of Use”), regardless of whether you have created a borrower, investor, or other account on the Service, or whether you have applied for our products or services. For purposes of these Terms of Use, the term “you” includes you and any of your agents (such as a mortgage broker using the Service and acting on your behalf), and any principal (such as an LLC or other entity) on whose behalf you are acting when accessing the Site. If you are accessing the Service or applying for our products or services on behalf of an LLC, corporation, partnership, trust, or other person or entity, you represent that you have the authority to agree to these Terms of Use on behalf of the entity and that your use of the Site shall constitute the person or entity’s agreement. The term “User” means any individual, including you, as well as any business entity, who accesses or uses the Site, themselves or through an agent.

When using certain services, you will be subject to any additional terms applicable to such services that may be posted on the Service from time to time, including, without limitation, the Privacy Policy. All such terms are hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms of Use.

1. Changes to Terms of Use

We may make changes to these Terms of Use from time to time. If we do this, we will post the changed Terms of Use on the Service for your review. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Service after we have made any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use.

In addition to these Terms of Use, you may enter into other agreements with us or others that will govern your use of the Service or related services offered by us or others. If there is any contradiction between these Terms of Use and another written agreement you enter into applicable to specific aspects of the Service, the other written agreement shall take precedence in relation to the specific aspects of the Service to which it applies.

2. Eligibility

The Service is intended solely for Users who, if they are a natural person, are eighteen (18) years of age or older. Any registration by, use of, or access to the Service by anyone under 18 is unauthorized, unlicensed, and in violation of these Terms of Use. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older and that you agree to abide by all of the terms and conditions of these Terms of Use.

If you violate any of these Terms of Use, or otherwise violate an agreement between you and us, or for any other reason, we may terminate your account, delete your profile and any content or information that you have posted on the Service, and/or prohibit you from using or accessing the Service (or any portion, aspect, or feature of the Service), at any time in our sole discretion, with or without notice, including without limitation if we believe that you are under 18. You agree that we will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your account.

PML lends exclusively for business and investment purposes. We do not originate consumer mortgages, owner-occupied home loans, or any loan covered by the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), RESPA, or analogous state consumer-protection laws.

3. Registration data and account security

• Maintain and promptly update the Registration Data, and any other information you provide to us, to keep it accurate, current, and complete; and
• Be fully responsible for all use of your account and for any actions that take place using your account.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (i) immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security and (ii) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Service. You agree not to hold PML liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section.

4. Hardware and software requirements

In order to use the Service and to access and retain Disclosures and/or other documents electronically, you will need: a current version (the version of the software that we support and that is currently being supported by its publisher or the applicable platform) of an Internet browser we support, or a current version of the App; an Internet connection; a current version of a program that accurately reads and displays PDF files (such as Adobe Reader); a computer or electronic device and an operating system capable of supporting all of the above (“Your Device”); and a printer and/or storage device if you wish to print or retain any electronic documents.

Mobile devices

If you are accessing the Service and the Disclosures electronically via a mobile device (such as a smart phone, tablet, and the like), in addition to the above requirements you must make sure that you have software on your mobile device that allows you to print and save the Disclosures presented to you during the application process. These applications can be found for most mobile devices in the device’s respective app store. If you do not have these capabilities on your mobile device, please access the Service through a device that provides these capabilities.

The technology and software underlying the Service or distributed in connection therewith are the property of PML, our affiliates, and our partners (the “Software”). You agree not to copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, reverse assemble, or otherwise attempt to discover any source code, sell, assign, sublicense, or otherwise transfer any right in the Software. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by PML.

Any use of the Service or the Service Content other than as specifically authorized herein, without our prior written permission, is strictly prohibited and will terminate the license granted herein. Such unauthorized use may also violate applicable laws including without limitation copyright and trademark laws and applicable communications regulations and statutes. Unless explicitly stated herein, nothing in these Terms of Use shall be construed as conferring any license to intellectual property rights, whether by estoppel, implication, or otherwise. This license is revocable by us at any time without notice and with or without cause.

8. User content posted on the Service

You are solely responsible for the photos, profiles, messages, notes, text, information, contact information for you or others, or other content that you upload, publish, provide, or display (collectively, “post”) on or through the Service, or transmit to or share with other Users (collectively the “User Content”). You understand and agree that PML may, but is not obligated to, review and delete or remove (without notice) any User Content in its sole discretion, including without limitation User Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms of Use, might be offensive or illegal, or might violate the rights of, harm, or threaten the safety of, Users or others.

By posting User Content to any part of the Service, you automatically grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to PML an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, worldwide license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part), and distribute such User Content for any purpose, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such User Content, and to grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing. You may remove your User Content from the Service at any time. If you choose to remove your User Content, the license granted above will not expire.

Some Users may be authorized to review personal information (including credit data) and property data posted by other Users on the Service. If you have such authorization to review personal information of other Users, you are not authorized to disclose or otherwise use such information for any purpose other than assessing the creditworthiness of other Users and potential loans.

You acknowledge and agree that we may preserve content and may also disclose content if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal process, applicable laws, or governmental requests; (b) enforce these Terms of Use; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of PML, its Users, or the public.

9. Copyright complaints (DMCA)

If you believe that any material on the Site infringes upon any copyright which you own or control, you may send a written notification of such infringement to our Designated Agent at:

privacy@privatemoni.com

To meet the notice requirements under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the notification must be a written communication that includes the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site;
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material;
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted;
5. A statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Repeat-infringer policy

In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, PML has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the memberships or accounts of Users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also at our sole discretion limit access to the Service and/or terminate the accounts of any Users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

10. Third-party content, services, and links

The Service may contain links to other websites, merchandise, and services provided, owned, or operated by third parties (“Third Party Services”); these links do not imply our endorsement or approval of Third Party Services or any related material. The Third Party Services are not under our control and we are not responsible for the availability, content, products, services, advertising, or other materials available on the Third Party Services. The privacy policies of Third Party Services may provide less security than our website, so we strongly encourage you to read the third party’s privacy policy before sharing any information with that third party. All matters concerning Third Party Services are solely between you and the third party. We make no warranties or representations whatsoever with regard to any Third Party Service and we are not responsible or liable to you for any damages, losses, or injuries of any kind arising out of your use of any Third Party Service.

11. Consent to electronic transactions and disclosures

Because PML operates only on the Internet, you must consent to conduct business with us and receive disclosures electronically. You agree to receive electronically all documents, communications, notices, contracts, and agreements, including any IRS Form 1099, related to (i) any loans you may request or receive, (ii) your registration as a borrower or investor on our Site, (iii) any loans you may receive from us, (iv) your use of this Service, or (v) the servicing of your loan (each, a “Disclosure”). The term “IRS Form 1099” refers to any Form 1099 or other Form, Schedule, or information statement, including corrections of such documents, required to be provided pursuant to U.S. Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations and that may be provided electronically. The decision to do business with us electronically is yours.

Electronic communications

Any Disclosures will be provided to you electronically through privatemoni.com, either through the Service or via electronic mail to the email address you provided. If you require paper copies of such Disclosures, you may write to us at the mailing address provided below and a paper copy will be sent to you. If you do not consent to receive an IRS Form 1099 electronically, a paper copy of any IRS Form 1099 required to be delivered to you at no cost after the effective time of your failure to consent or revocation of consent will be sent to you. However, a fee may be charged for any additional or replacement copies of such IRS Form 1099. A request for a paper copy of any Disclosure will not be considered a withdrawal of your consent to receive Disclosures electronically. Any IRS 1099 Forms provided electronically will remain accessible through at least October 15 of the year in which such IRS Form 1099 is made available; after that time the IRS Form 1099 may no longer be accessible electronically. We may discontinue electronic provision of Disclosures at any time in our sole discretion.

Scope of consent

Your consent to receive Disclosures and transact business electronically, and our agreement to do so, applies to any transactions to which such Disclosures relate, whether between you (or your agents) and us. Your consent will remain in effect for so long as you are a User and, if you are no longer a User, will continue until such time as all Disclosures relevant to transactions that occurred while you were a User have been made.

Withdrawing consent

You may withdraw your consent to receive Disclosures electronically by contacting us at the address below. However, once you have withdrawn your consent you will not be able to submit loan requests on our Service. If you have a pending loan request on our Service when you withdraw your consent to receive Disclosures electronically, we will terminate your request and remove it from our system. If you have already received a loan, all previously agreed-to terms and conditions will remain in effect, and we will send Disclosures to your verified address provided during registration.

If you withdraw your consent to receive IRS Forms 1099 electronically, we will confirm your withdrawal and its effective date in writing by email. Such withdrawal will take effect for the calendar year in which it is made so long as such withdrawal is made before November 1 of such calendar year.

12. Mobile messaging terms and conditions

PML operates a mobile-messaging program (the “Program”) subject to these Mobile Messaging Terms and Conditions (“Mobile Messaging Terms”). The Program and our collection and use of your personal information are also subject to our Privacy Policy. By enrolling, signing up, or otherwise agreeing to participate in the Program, you accept and agree to these Mobile Messaging Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Cellular phone contact policy

By providing us with a telephone number for a mobile device, including a number that you later convert to a mobile-device number, you are expressly consenting to receiving communications — including but not limited to prerecorded or artificial-voice message calls, text messages, and calls made by an automatic telephone dialing system — from us and our affiliates and agents at that number, about any product or service offered by PML. This express consent applies to each such telephone number that you provide to us now or in the future. Calls and messages may incur access fees from your mobile services provider. You understand that you need not provide this consent as a condition of obtaining goods or services from PML, and that you may decline to provide or revoke your consent at any time by emailing compliance@privatemoni.com or by any other method that reasonably ensures we receive your revocation.

Program description

We may send promotional and transactional mobile messages in various formats through the Program. Promotional messages advertise and promote our products and services and may include promotions, specials, other marketing offers, and loan reminders. Transactional messages relate to an existing or ongoing transaction and may include order notifications and updates, appointment reminders, and other transaction-related information. Mobile messages may be sent using an automated technology, including an autodialer, automated system, or automatic telephone dialing system. Message frequency will vary but will not exceed three messages per month. You agree that we, our affiliates, and any third-party service providers may send you messages regarding the foregoing topics or any topic and that such messages and/or calls may be made or placed using different telephone numbers or short codes. We do not charge for mobile messages sent through the Program, but you are responsible for any message and data rates imposed by your mobile provider.

Opt-in

By providing your mobile-phone number to us, you are voluntarily opting in to the Program and you agree to receive recurring mobile messages from us at the mobile-phone number associated with your opt-in, even if such number is registered on any state or federal “Do Not Call” list. You agree that any mobile-phone number you provide to us is a valid mobile-phone number of which you are the owner or authorized user. If you change your mobile-phone number or are no longer the owner or authorized user of the mobile-phone number, you agree to promptly notify us at info@privatemoni.com. Your participation in the Program is not required to make any purchase from us and your participation is completely voluntary.

Opt-out and support

You may opt out of the Program at any time. If you wish to opt out and stop receiving mobile messages from us, or you no longer agree to these Mobile Messaging Terms, reply STOP, QUIT, CANCEL, OPT-OUT, or UNSUBSCRIBE to any mobile message from us. You may continue to receive text messages for a short period while we process your request and you may receive a one-time opt-out confirmation message. You understand and agree that the foregoing is the only reasonable method of opting out. If you want to join the Program again, just sign up as you did the first time, and we will start sending messages to you again. For support, reply HELP to any mobile message from us.

Our mobile-messaging platform may not recognize requests that modify the foregoing commands, and you agree that we and our service providers will not be liable for failing to honor requests that do not comply with the requirements in these Mobile Messaging Terms. We may also change the telephone number or short code we use to operate the Program and we will notify you of any such change.

Disclaimer and modifications

The Program is offered on an “as-is” basis and may not be available in all areas, at all times, or on all mobile providers. You agree that neither we nor our service providers will be liable for any failed, delayed, or misdirected delivery of any mobile message or information sent through the Program. We may modify or cancel the Program or any of its features at any time, with or without notice. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may also modify these Mobile Messaging Terms at any time. Any such modification will take effect when it is posted to our website.

13. Promotions and referral program

From time to time, we may offer promotions or special opportunities (“Promotions”) on our Site. Promotions may come in the form of incentives, such as credits or fee discounts. We may set or change the incentive types, amounts, terms, restrictions, and qualification requirements for any Promotion in our sole discretion and we reserve the right to cancel any active Promotion at any time. We also reserve the right to withhold or deduct credits or benefits obtained through a Promotion in the event that we determine or believe that the redemption of the promotion or receipt of the credit or benefit was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of the applicable promotion terms or these Terms of Use.

Referral program

As part of a Promotion, we may offer you incentives to refer third parties, including real-estate agents, to the PML community (a “Referral Program”). When you enter such a Referral Program or respond to such opportunity, we may require the submission of your name, e-mail address, postal address, and other personally identifiable information. Any information collected by PML under a Referral Program shall be governed by PML’s Privacy Policy.

Referrer eligibility

To be eligible to participate in a Referral Program as a referrer, you must meet the eligibility requirements in these Terms of Use. Any referred real-estate agent or third party must meet the eligibility requirements as well. Referred real-estate agents are also required to have all the legally necessary licenses, registrations, approvals, or exemptions for their practice in order to be eligible to participate in a Referral Program. If you violate these Terms of Use or the specific terms and conditions of a Referral Program, PML may suspend or terminate your ability to participate in such a Referral Program under any or all of your accounts.

How to refer new Users

You may invite individuals to become new Users directly through the applicable portion of the Site by entering or providing PML with your invitee’s contact information. Inviting an individual through our Site may generate an automatic invitation text (SMS) or email (the “Invitation”) to the person, which may be sent via email, through your phone number, or a number controlled by PML. You represent that you have the necessary consent from your invitee to send them the Invitation.

Referral rewards

You may be eligible to earn a referral incentive (“Referral Reward”) for each referred party, subject to these Terms of Use and the terms and conditions of the specific Referral Program. You and the referred individual must satisfy these Terms of Use and the applicable terms and conditions for the Referral Program (“Reward Criteria”) for you to qualify for the Referral Reward. Referral Rewards are set by PML in its sole discretion and are subject to change at any time. The Reward Criteria may vary by market or within a particular market. Only one person can earn a Referral Reward for a single referral. In the event that multiple persons claim credit for a particular referral, PML has full discretion to determine which person earned such referral.

14. Commercial use

Unless otherwise expressly authorized herein or in the Service, you agree not to display, distribute, license, perform, publish, reproduce, duplicate, copy, create derivative works from, modify, sell, resell, exploit, transfer, or upload for any commercial purposes, any portion of the Service, use of the Service, or access to the Service.

User disputes

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other Users. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor disputes between you and other Users.

15. Disclaimers

PML does not guarantee the accuracy of any User Content or Third Party Services. Although we provide rules for User conduct and postings, we do not control and are not responsible for what Users post on the Service and are not responsible for any offensive, inappropriate, obscene, unlawful, or otherwise objectionable content you may encounter on the Service or in connection with any User Content or Third Party Services. PML is not responsible for the conduct, whether online or offline, of any User of the Service. We cannot guarantee and do not promise any specific results from use of the Service to obtain a loan.

The Service may be temporarily unavailable from time to time for maintenance or other reasons. PML assumes no responsibility for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications-line failure, theft, destruction, or unauthorized access to or alteration of, User communications. PML is not responsible for any problems or technical malfunction of any telephone network or lines, computer online systems, servers or providers, computer equipment, software, failure of email or players on account of technical problems or traffic congestion on the Internet or on the Service or combination thereof.

PML reserves the right to change any and all content contained in the Service at any time without notice, including, without limitation, permanently discontinuing any portion of the Service. Reference to any products, services, processes, or other information, by trade name, trademark, manufacturer, supplier, or otherwise, does not constitute or imply endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation thereof, or any affiliation therewith, by PML.

16. Limitation on liability

Certain federal and state laws do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages or limitations on implied warranties. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights.

17. Governing law; venue and jurisdiction

By visiting or using the Site and/or the Service, you agree that the laws of the State of California, without regard to any principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Terms of Use. You and PML agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located within Los Angeles County, California.

18. Arbitration, waiver of jury trial, and class-action rights

At our or your election, all disputes, claims, or controversies (“Claims”) arising out of or relating to the following shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration to be conducted before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or its successor: (a) Claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and us, including but not limited to your use of the Site or the Service, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory; (b) Claims that arose before this or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); (c) Claims that are currently the subject of purported class-action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; and (d) Claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms of Use.

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, arbitration will be held in Los Angeles, California, before a single arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties, or if the parties cannot mutually agree, a single arbitrator appointed by AAA, and will be conducted in accordance with the current rules and regulations promulgated by AAA unless specifically modified in these Terms of Use. The arbitration must commence within forty-five (45) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by either party. The arbitrator’s reasoned decision and award will be made and delivered within sixty (60) days of the conclusion of the arbitration and within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator.

The arbitrator will not have the power to award damages in excess of the limitation on actual compensatory, direct damages set forth in these Terms of Use and may not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under these Terms of Use, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages. The arbitrator may, in his or her discretion, assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party) against any party to a proceeding. Any party refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrators will be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief, any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the purpose of avoiding immediate and irreparable harm.

By entering into these Terms of Use, you and PML are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. These Terms of Use evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use.

If we change this Arbitration section after the date you first accepted these Terms of Use (or accepted any subsequent changes), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the date such change became effective. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing to arbitrate any dispute between you and us in accordance with the provisions of this section as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Use.

19. Indemnity and submissions

Indemnity

You agree to release, indemnify, and hold PML, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, agents, contractors, partners, and employees, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of or in connection with your User Content, any Third Party Services or related content you post or share on or through the Service, your use of the Service, your conduct in connection with the Service or with other Users of the Service, or any violation of these Terms of Use or of any law or the rights of any third party.

Submissions

You acknowledge and agree that any questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, feedback, or other information about the Service (“Submissions”), provided by you to us are non-confidential and shall become the sole property of PML, and you hereby make all assignments necessary to accomplish such ownership. PML shall own exclusive rights, including all intellectual property rights, and shall be entitled to the unrestricted use and dissemination of these Submissions for any purpose, commercial or otherwise, without acknowledgment or compensation to you.

20. Other

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and PML and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and PML with respect to the Service. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third-party services, third-party content, or third-party software. The failure of PML to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision in that or any other instance. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid, the remainder of these Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Use without the prior written consent of PML, but we may assign or transfer these Terms of Use, in whole or in part, without restriction. Section titles are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail.

USA Patriot Act

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money-laundering activities, federal law requires we obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who creates a relationship with us.
