Effective Date: March 6, 2024
This Privacy Policy describes how Capital Home Mortgage processes information collected on our websites and applications (including mobile) or through your online interactions with us (collectively, our "Services").
In some circumstances, we may provide you with additional or supplemental privacy notices to the extent they apply to you because of the products and services you obtain from us or different laws that may apply to you. Some states may provide additional privacy rights. Please refer to the Additional Information Regarding Your State Privacy Rights section to learn more.
By using any of our Services, you acknowledge the privacy practices we describe in this Capital Home Mortgage Privacy Policy. You also acknowledge that you have read this policy and other policies described.
We collect information you provide to us. For example, we collect information from you when you create a Capital account, fill out a form or otherwise submit content through our Services, are referred to us via one of our third-party professional partner relationships, make a purchase, communicate with us via third-party platforms, participate in a contest, promotion or survey, request customer support or information about our Services, or otherwise communicate with us.
The specific information we collect depends on the context in which you provide it, and could include:
• Name
• Email address
• Postal address
• Phone number
• Social security number
• Location and approximate value of your property
• Vehicle information, such as make, model, VIN and vehicle features
• Age and/or date of birth
• Demographic information, such as race, ethnicity and gender gathered pursuant to federal requirements
• Related loan products or services you have used in the past
• Financial information, such as income, assets and net worth
• Home ownership status and employment status

We automatically collect certain information about your interactions with us or our Services, including:
Transactional Information: When you make a purchase or complete a transaction, we collect information about the transaction, such as product or service details, financial details and the date and location of the transaction.
Device and Usage Information: We collect information about how you access our Services, including data about the device and network you use, such as hardware model, operating system version, mobile network, IP address, unique device identifiers and device regional and language settings, browser type, and app version. We also collect information about your activity on our Services, such as access times, pages viewed, links clicked, products and services considered, and the page you visited before navigating to our Services.
Your Content: As you allow through your device or application, we may collect information and content stored on your device, such as photos.
Location Information: In accordance with your device permissions, we may collect information about the precise location of your device. You may stop the collection of precise location information at any time (see the Your Choices section below for details).
Information Collected by Cookies and Similar Tracking Technologies: We (and those who perform work for us) use tracking technologies, such as cookies and web beacons, to collect information about your interactions with the Services.
Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory that help us improve our Services and your experience, see which areas and features of our Services are popular and which emails and advertisements you view, authenticate users, reconstruct or observe activity relating to a session or by a user for troubleshooting, issue resolution, and other purposes, and count visits to our websites.
Web beacons (also known as "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs") are electronic images that we use on our Services and in our emails to help deliver cookies, count visits, and understand usage and campaign effectiveness. In our mobile apps, we may also use technologies that are not browser-based like cookies.
For example, our apps may include software development kits (known as SDKs) which are code that sends information about your use to a server. These SDKs allow us to track our conversions, bring you advertising both on and off the Service, and provide you additional functionality. For more information about these tracking technologies and how to disable them, see the Advertising and Analytics section below.
We obtain information from third-party sources in certain situations. For example, we may collect information about you from identity or other verification services, credit bureaus (including your credit report), advertising networks, mailing list providers, service providers and data brokers. Our Services also may allow or require you to integrate or connect your Rocket account with third-party services through service providers (such as Plaid).
The information we receive from such third parties varies depending on the information made available by those entities. Examples of the types of information we receive include financial account information, information about account balance, information about credit accounts, information about loan accounts, information about investment accounts, identifiers and information about account owners, information about account transactions and employment information.
Additionally, if you create or log into your Rocket account through a third-party platform, such as Facebook or Google, we'll have access to certain information from that platform, such as your name, birthday, and profile picture, in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by such platform.
We may derive information or draw inferences about you based on the information we collect. For example, we may make inferences about your location based on your IP address or city or postal code or infer that you are looking to purchase certain products based on information you provide to us and your browsing behavior and past purchases.
In some instances Capital enables you to use Plaid Technologies, Inc. to gather data from financial institutions. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that your information will be processed in accordance with the Plaid Privacy Policy and you grant Capital and Plaid the same rights, power and authority as specified therein.
We use the information we collect to provide our Services to you.

We also share personal information to work with third parties to serve ads to you as part of customized campaigns on third-party platforms (such as Facebook).
