Terms for using The Lenders Network.
The Lenders Network is a loan comparison and education platform, not a lender. These Terms of Use explain the rules for using our websites, tools, and services, and how our independent role affects your relationship with lenders you may choose to work with.
- By using our sites, you agree to these Terms and any additional notices we present.
- The Lenders Network does not make loans; independent lenders do. We help you compare them.
- We may share your information with lenders when you ask us to connect you.
- Your loan, if any, is governed by your agreement with the lender, not by these Terms alone.
These Terms work together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Service Disclaimer, and Partner Transparency pages.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and The Lenders Network. By accessing or using our websites, tools, content, or services (together, the “Services”), you:
- Confirm that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms; and
- Agree to our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and any additional terms or disclosures we present in connection with specific features.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Services.
2. Eligibility and intended users
The Services are intended for individual consumers who are:
- At least 18 years old; and
- Using the Services for personal, family, or household purposes related to home loans or related topics.
The Services are not intended for children or for use by automated bots other than standard search engine indexing. By using the Services, you represent that you meet any applicable age and eligibility requirements.
3. Our Services and non‑lender status
The Lenders Network is a loan comparison and education platform. We are not a bank, credit union, mortgage lender, or broker of record. We do not:
- Take formal mortgage applications in the way a lender or broker does.
- Underwrite, approve, deny, or fund mortgage loans.
- Set your interest rate, APR, or closing costs.
- Act as your agent, fiduciary, or financial advisor.
Instead, we:
- Provide educational content and tools about home loans and related topics.
- Allow you to request contact from independent mortgage lenders and other service providers.
- Receive compensation from partners for marketing and lead‑generation services, as described in Partner Transparency and Advertising Disclosures.
Any loan you obtain is made by an independent lender you choose, on terms you negotiate with that lender. The Lenders Network is not a party to your loan documents.
4. Your responsibilities when using the Services
When you use The Lenders Network, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information where required (for example, in forms or inquiries).
- Use the Services only for lawful purposes and in compliance with these Terms and applicable law.
- Evaluate any loan offers independently and carefully review all lender disclosures before making decisions.
- Maintain the security of any information you use to communicate with us (such as email accounts or devices).
You are solely responsible for decisions you make based on information obtained through the Services, including decisions to apply for or accept a loan from any lender.
5. Relationships with lenders and other partners
The Lenders Network maintains commercial relationships with independent lenders, brokers, and other partners. These partners may:
- Appear in comparison tools, listings, or educational content.
- Receive your information when you request contact or indicate interest in their products.
- Compensate us for marketing, traffic, or leads.
We do not guarantee that:
- Our partners represent every available option in the market; or
- The lenders you see are the best or only ones suitable for your situation.
Inclusion or prominence of a lender or offer in our Services is not a personal recommendation or an endorsement. You are free to obtain quotes from lenders outside our network at any time.
6. No financial, legal, or tax advice
The information we provide is for general educational and marketing purposes. It is not:
- Personalized financial advice;
- Legal advice or tax advice; or
- A substitute for professional counseling tailored to your situation.
You should consult your own financial advisor, attorney, tax professional, or other qualified expert before making significant financial decisions, including taking out or refinancing a mortgage.
7. Communications and contact consent
By submitting your contact information through our forms or tools, you understand that:
- The Lenders Network may contact you using the details you provide (for example, by phone, text, or email) about your requests and related services.
- We may share your information with independent lenders and other partners so they can contact you about their products, subject to applicable law and the disclosures on each form.
You can manage many of these communications through our Contact Preferences and Do Not Call pages and through options provided directly by lenders.
The exact consent language on a given form is important. Always read it carefully before submitting your information.
8. Prohibited uses
You agree not to use the Services to:
- Engage in any unlawful, fraudulent, or abusive activity.
- Scrape, harvest, or collect data from the Services in bulk, except as allowed by law and our robots.txt.
- Reverse engineer, modify, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems.
- Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
- Interfere with or disrupt the operation or security of the Services.
We may suspend or terminate access to the Services for any user we reasonably believe is violating these restrictions or otherwise misusing the platform.
9. Content, intellectual property, and permitted use
The Services, including text, graphics, logos, icons, tools, and other content, are owned by or licensed to The Lenders Network and are protected by intellectual property laws.
You may:
- View and use the Services for your personal, non‑commercial use.
- Print or download reasonable portions for your own records.
You may not, without our prior written permission:
- Copy, reproduce, distribute, or publicly display substantial portions of the Services.
- Use any content for commercial purposes other than evaluating or obtaining services for yourself.
- Use our trademarks, logos, or branding in a way that suggests endorsement or affiliation.
For concerns about copyright or misuse of content, please see our Copyright & IP Policy.
10. Third‑party content, links, and tools
The Services may contain:
- Links to third‑party websites or apps;
- Content, tools, or calculators provided by third parties; or
- References to third‑party products, services, or offers.
We do not control and are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third‑party sites or services. Inclusion of a link or reference does not mean we endorse or recommend that third party.
Your use of any third‑party service is solely between you and that third party, subject to its own terms and policies.
11. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided on an “as‑is” and “as‑available” basis. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we do not warrant that:
- The Services will always be error‑free, secure, or available without interruption.
- Any information (including rates, fees, or product details) is always current, complete, or accurate.
- Any particular lender, loan, or outcome is suitable for your needs.
The Lenders Network does not guarantee that you will be approved for a loan, receive any particular offer, or achieve any specific financial outcome by using the Services.
Additional disclaimers specific to our comparison and educational content are described in our Service Disclaimer.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Lenders Network and its owners, employees, and agents will not be liable for any:
- Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages; or
- Loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill,
arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the extent we are found liable for any claim connected to the Services despite these limitations, our total liability will be limited to the amount, if any, you paid directly to us for the use of the Services during the twelve (12) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim.
13. Your indemnification obligation
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Lenders Network and its owners, employees, and agents from and against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your use of the Services; or
- Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law or regulation.
14. Governing law and dispute resolution
Unless otherwise required by applicable law, these Terms and any disputes arising out of or relating to your use of the Services will be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict‑of‑law principles.
You agree to first contact us to try to resolve any concern informally. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it will be handled in a manner consistent with applicable law and any dispute‑resolution mechanisms we are required to provide. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you may have under consumer protection laws that cannot be waived.
15. Changes to the Services and these Terms
We may modify or discontinue parts of the Services at any time, with or without notice, as long as we comply with applicable law.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice (for example, by posting a banner) where required. Your continued use of the Services after updated Terms take effect means you acknowledge the changes, to the extent permitted by law.
16. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe that:
- You have violated these Terms or any applicable law; or
- Your use of the Services poses a risk to us, our users, or our partners.
You may stop using the Services at any time. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (such as disclaimers, limitations of liability, and dispute provisions) will continue to apply.
