2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with our comparison tools and digital application, we may collect and process the following categories of data:
- Loan Parameters: Requested loan amount (e.g. €1,000 to €75,000), desired repayment term (e.g. 36 to 84 months), and purpose of financing (such as personal use, vehicle purchase, debt consolidation, or home renovation).
- Contact & Identity Data: Full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and phone number when requesting quotes or initiating an application.
- Financial & Employment Details: Employment status, monthly net income, living expenses, and existing loan obligations required by partner banks to evaluate affordability.
- Technical Usage Data: IP address, device type, browser specifications, and timestamps collected automatically during server communication for security and fraud prevention.
3. Purpose of Processing & Legal Basis
We process your data strictly on legitimate legal grounds pursuant to Art. 6 GDPR:
Processing loan inquiries, calculating representative interest rates, and transmitting your application request to partner banks.
Platform stability, prevention of automated bot abuse, security auditing, and continuous UX optimization.
4. Partner Banks & Third-Party Data Sharing
To present real-time rates and pre-approved loan quotes, your inquiry parameters are securely transferred to licensed financial partners and credit institutions.
Credit Bureau Neutrality: Inquiries made through cashXcredit for comparison purposes are submitted with a credit-score neutral inquiry flag ("Konditionsanfrage"). This ensures that querying multiple options does not degrade your credit score.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to marketing third parties under any circumstances.
5. Pricing, Fees & Transparency
cashXcredit is committed to full financial clarity:
- Comparing loans, viewing offers, and submitting eligibility checks is 100% free with no obligation.
- Representative APR ranges between 9% and 10% depending on lender evaluation and creditworthiness.
- A one-time service, documentation, and processing fee of 10% of the loan amount is clearly calculated into the repayment schedule only upon contract finalization. No surprise fees.
6. Data Security & Retention
We employ strict technical and organizational measures (TOMs), including TLS encryption, end-to-end authentication, and database access controls.
Data is retained only as long as required to fulfill the requested loan mediation or to satisfy statutory retention obligations (e.g. tax and commercial record retention periods under European financial regulations).
