3. Information we may collect
If you contact us via the broker referral form or support email, we may collect your name, email address, and the message content you provide. This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry.

We use contact information only to respond to enquiries and, where you have consented, to connect you with an Equilend mortgage broker.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share your contact details with an Equilend-affiliated mortgage broker if you expressly request a consultation.
