Current Online Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 15, 2023

This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains how Finco Services, Inc. d/b/a Current and its affiliates and agents (“Current”) may collect, use and disclose information we obtain through the Current Service. All references to “Current,” “we” or “our” in this Policy shall include affiliates, which shall mean any entity or person, directly or indirectly, owning a controlling interest in, owned by, or under common ownership control with, Finco Services, Inc. d/b/a Current, including Finco Advance LLC.

The “Current Service means any websites, mobile applications, and other services under the control of Current, or in connection with providing an online or digital platform for Current's services, which includes the Paycheck Advance Service as well as the provision of a digital platform on which customers can convert personal funds into digital vouchers redeemable at third party providers of goods and services.

“Personal Information” means information that alone or when in combination with other information may be used to readily identify, contact, or locate you, such as: name, address, email address, phone number, or financial transactions. We do not consider Personal Information to include information that has been anonymized so that it does not allow a third party to easily identify a specific individual.
