About Cornerstone

Cornerstone Lending Group Inc. ("Cornerstone," "we," "us") provides multifamily and commercial real estate financing advisory services, investment-property financing and select residential financing services. California DRE Corporation License #02216094; NMLS #2508655.

This Privacy Policy describes information collected through our website and financing inquiry process. A website inquiry is not a formal application for credit. This policy does not replace any financial privacy notice required for a subsequent financing transaction.

For privacy questions or requests, contact info@cornerstone-lg.com, (949) 818-7940, or 18200 Von Karman Avenue, Suite 450, Irvine, CA 92612.

Information we collect

Information you provide. Our inquiry form collects your name and email address. You may also provide a telephone number, company, financing type, property city and state, requested loan amount and message. We may receive additional information through correspondence about your inquiry.

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, tax returns, identification documents or other sensitive personal or financial information through the website inquiry form.

Visit and inquiry-source information. When available, we collect the original landing page, referring website, campaign parameters and advertising click identifiers, the page and link used to begin an inquiry, the submission page and any associated transaction selected on our website. These details help us understand how visitors reach us and which pages generate inquiries.

Technical and usage information. Our hosting and related service providers may process IP addresses, browser and device information, page visits, interactions with website controls, diagnostic events and performance information. This includes usage and interaction telemetry supplied by Lovable hosting.

How we use information

We use information to respond to financing inquiries, communicate about the requests submitted, evaluate financing options, facilitate potential transactions and maintain related records. We also use visit and inquiry-source information to understand website activity and the effectiveness of marketing efforts, and technical information to operate, protect and improve the website, diagnose problems and comply with applicable obligations.

Cornerstone may contact you by email or telephone regarding your financing inquiry. Submitting an inquiry does not automatically enroll you in Constant Contact or other unrelated marketing campaigns and does not authorize unrelated promotional or automated marketing calls.

Marketing communications

Cornerstone conducts outbound email marketing through Constant Contact separately from website financing inquiries. Marketing emails identify the company, include a physical mailing address and provide an unsubscribe option. You may use that option or contact us about your communication preferences. Cornerstone does not conduct marketing text-message campaigns.

Responses concerning your inquiry are distinct from promotional campaigns. You may contact us about your inquiry-related communication preferences, subject to communications or records required by law.

Cookies, browser storage and hosting services

We use Lovable hosting and managed services for the website, inquiry records and operational email notifications. Optional Visitor analytics and Click tracking are disabled. Verification of the published website found no optional Lovable interaction-telemetry requests. Hosting services may still process connection information and operational or security logs and use cookies for site operation and deployment. Browser session storage preserves visit attribution and carries inquiry-source information during a browsing session. Staff sign-in also uses browser storage for authentication.

Our website loads Google Fonts resources to display its typography. The font provider receives connection information necessary to deliver those resources. Google states that Google Fonts data is kept separate from other data and is not used to create end-user profiles or for advertising. The website does not currently use owner-installed Google Analytics, advertising pixels or an embedded Constant Contact subscription form.

With optional analytics disabled, our verified website configuration does not enable third-party collection of identifiable visitor activity over time and across different websites for behavioral tracking. This statement describes the website configuration, not a guarantee about every independent practice of hosting or font providers. Essential hosting and font requests may still disclose connection information to those providers.

The website does not implement a separate response to browser Do Not Track signals. Optional analytics are disabled regardless of that signal; essential hosting operations, font requests and inquiry attribution are not switched off by it. We do not promise that Global Privacy Control signals disable all hosting or provider processing.

You can use browser settings to clear or restrict cookies and browser storage. Restrictions may affect some website functions. Applicable browser-based privacy preferences are subject to the requirements of applicable law.

Information sharing

Inquiry information is stored in our website systems and sent to Cornerstone's designated inquiry mailbox. Authorized administrators may view and manage website inquiry records; authorized personnel may handle information through our mailbox and financing workflow.

We may disclose information to providers that support hosting, data storage, email delivery, security, technical services and communications.

To evaluate financing options and facilitate potential transactions, we may share relevant inquiry and financing information with prospective lenders, capital sources and other financing partners, as appropriate to the financing request and subject to applicable legal requirements. This evaluation may involve approaching prospective financing partners without a separate request to contact each individual provider. Sensitive information remains subject to applicable safeguards, restrictions, notices and authorizations, including additional requirements that may apply to residential or consumer financing.

We may also disclose information as required by law, legal process or regulatory obligations, or as lawfully necessary to protect rights, safety or our website.

California privacy rights and requests

California residents may have rights concerning their personal information under applicable law. Where the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, applies, these may include rights to know and access, correct or delete personal information; opt out of sale or sharing; limit certain uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information; and receive non-discriminatory treatment for exercising applicable rights. Certain information or processing may be exempt or subject to other privacy laws.

To make a privacy request, contact info@cornerstone-lg.com or (949) 818-7940. We will evaluate requests under applicable law, verify identity as appropriate and explain any lawful limitations. Authorized-agent requests are subject to applicable verification requirements. Records may be retained where permitted or required by law.

Residential and consumer financing

Additional federal or California financial privacy rules, disclosures or authorizations may apply if you proceed to a residential or consumer financing transaction, depending on the transaction, information and Cornerstone's role. Applicable notices and authorizations are separate from this website policy and must be addressed at the legally required stage.

Retention

We retain information as appropriate to respond to inquiries, administer financing-related records and meet applicable legal, licensing, dispute-resolution and legitimate operational requirements. Retention depends on the information, its purpose and applicable obligations. Deletion requests are reviewed under applicable law and may be subject to required recordkeeping or other lawful exceptions.

Security

We use access restrictions and other reasonable safeguards designed to protect information. No internet transmission, email system or storage arrangement can be guaranteed completely secure. Please do not send sensitive documents through the public inquiry form.

Other websites and children

Other websites linked from this site have their own privacy practices. This website is intended for people seeking financing information and is not directed to children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information so we can review appropriate action.

Policy updates

We may update this policy by posting a revised version and effective date. Material changes will be addressed as required by applicable law.
