Privacy Policy

Effective on: (08/01/2006)

Law School Loans is a dba of EdFed.


Law School Loans is committed to protecting the privacy of our users, and we are firmly devoted to maintaining your trust in us. We work extremely hard at safeguarding our clients' important information and keeping it secure. Our privacy policy is designed to help you understand our genuine dedication to preserving your privacy.

Your personal information
Law School Loans limits the collection and use of customer information to that which is required to provide quality services to our customers. During the course of processing your loan application, we collect the following types of information:
  • Information we receive from you, such as your name, contact information, and social security number;
  • Information about your transactions with us, our affiliates, or relevant third-parties; and
  • Information that we obtain from the government's National Student Loan Data System, or in the case of private loans, information that we may obtain from a consumer credit reporting agency regarding your creditworthiness.
Law School Loans strictly limits the sharing of information about you and your application. Only authorized employees have access to your information. Each employee of Law School Loans signs a strict confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement to ensure your privacy. All employees are made aware of the importance of maintaining the privacy of our customers' information. We will not disclose information to third parties unless we have previously informed the customer, have been authorized by the customer, or are obligated by law.

Law School Loans will never sell any personal information about any of our customers to any third parties. We will never sell your e-mail address or any other contact information to any third parties for any purpose.

When you supply personal information about yourself for a specific purpose, we use the information for only that purpose (such as to provide the service or information you have requested.) By providing us with your personally identifiable information, you are thereby permitting us to immediately verify your eligibility (e.g. determine your creditworthiness, if applicable) for any and all of the services Graduate School Loans provides. Your contact information may also be used to contact you when necessary in order to respond to your inquiries regarding the service. Every communication with Law School Loans is held in strictest confidence and handled with integrity. Your personal information will not be disclosed to third parties under any circumstances, except as disclosed in this privacy statement.

Some of the financial services we offer require that we disclose certain information to particular third parties. This includes information we have received from you in your application such as your name and contact information, as well as information about your transactions with us, our affiliates, or relevant third-parties. We may disclose such information to third party financial service providers or non-financial companies that provide specific services or functions in the course of our business. Except as otherwise provided for by law, you may opt out of any disclosures that we might make by writing us at the following address: Law School Loans, 175 S. Lake Ave., Suite 200, Pasadena, CA 91101. If you have already submitted an application to us, we may continue to disclose any information that is necessary for the processing of your application, unless you specifically request the cancellation of your application and we receive such request at least three days before the disbursement of any funds.

Law School Loans is a dba of EdFed, one of the Juriscape companies, which include Attorney Research Group, BCG Attorney Search, CLE Authority, EdFed, Employment Crossing, General Counsel Consulting, Hound.com, JD Journal, JD2B, Judged, Law Firm Staff, Professional Authority, Resume Apple, and Southlake Properties LLC. Each company is a distinct and separately incorporated entity, and each company's databases and servers are maintained independently. Each employee of each company signs a strict confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement, ensuring that they do not disclose your private information to any other person or company. Your personal information will absolutely never be shared with any other Juriscape company.

Personally identifiable information is stored on our database and is not publicly accessible. All Law School Loans employees must sign non-disclosure contracts that ensure the confidentiality of all personally identifiable information before gaining access to such information. This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control, and meets or exceeds all industry standards for the protection and confidentiality of personally identifiable information. The site uses 128 bit SSL encryption to safeguard all financial information.

The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as your social security number) on our registration or application forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can send email us at privacy@LawSchoolLoans.com

Should any material changes be made to the manner in which we use personally identifiable information, Law School Loans will post the changes on this webpage.
