We regularly review our compliance with our Privacy Policy and enforce safeguards within the company.

We are committed to working with appropriate regulatory authorities to resolve any complaints regarding the transfer of Personal Information that we cannot resolve with you directly.

We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all pages where Personal Information is collected. This protects the confidentiality of your Personal Information while it is transmitted over the Internet.

For your own protection, you should exercise care with the information you share over the Internet. You should always use a secure browser and exercise good judgment in using passwords, such as using a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers, special characters, and you should avoid using the same or similar passwords across multiple sites. We recommend using a password between 12 and 16 characters long.

Our data retention for such information is seven (7) years.

We may reject requests to change or delete information that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort (for example, requiring the development of new systems or fundamental changes to existing systems), risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical (such as information stored on backups).

We work to protect data from accidental or malicious destruction. Accordingly, we may not immediately delete or change residual copies and we may not delete or change information from our backup systems. Unless a disproportionate effort is required, we will provide information access and correction without charge.

We will share your personal information with our service providers when it is necessary to process your requests, maintain your case, or report to credit bureaus or your creditors. You have the right to request the following up to two times in a 12-month period:

In addition, California residents have the following rights: (1) the right to request that Personal Information be deleted, subject to various exceptions including matters governed by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) or to comply with a legal obligation whether of general or specific applicability; (2) the right to request that Personal Information not be sold to third parties, if applicable; and (3) the right not to be discriminated against in light of choosing to exercise any of these rights.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us:

by submitting the California Data Requests form
by calling 800-461-4133

When you make any of the above requests, we will verify your identity and right to request the information by asking you for information we can match with our records such as your name, phone number, Social Security Number, or date of birth. We may also verify you using your system login or other reasonable authentication service such as knowledge based authentication.

We will provide the requested information within 45 days of the request in most cases. If we need additional time to complete your request, we will notify you within the first 45 days and may take an additional 45 days to complete your request.

You may authorize an agent to make a request under these rights on your behalf by completing a notarized Agent Authorization Form and submitting it with your California Data Request web form or mailing it to us at Accrue Credit Solutions Firm, Data Requests, 2875 South Decker Lake Drive, Suite 200, West Valley City, Utah 84119.

By exercising your rights, you will not be denied services, provided a lesser level or quality of service, or charged a different price for services, including through discounts, benefits, or penalties unless the price difference is reasonably related to the value provided to you by your data. However, if you exercise your right to have your personal information deleted, we will not be able to continue to provide service, as our services are dependent on that personal information.

Please note that whereas Accrue Credit Solutions provides credit counseling services, it is subject to obligations pursuant to the GLBA. The GLBA includes several definitions that will govern relevant privacy matters. Consequently, the terms “nonpublic personal information” or “personally identifiable financial information”, for example, will pre-empt the CCPA’s definitions of “personal information”, “sale”, or other important terms defined by the GLBA for matters involving services provided by Accrue Credit Solutions, its service providers, or agents.
