These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website located at directlendingconnection.com (the “Site”), and any inquiry, consultation, application, or other services provided by Direct Lending Connection (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing the Site, submitting information through any form, scheduling a consultation, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Site or Services.
1. Nature of Our Services
Direct Lending Connection is not a lender. We operate exclusively as a strategic partner, consultant, and referral partner in commercial and business financing. Our role is to evaluate your financing needs, provide advisory and consulting services, and — where appropriate — refer or submit your information to independent third-party lenders, capital providers, and funding sources in our network.
We do not make credit decisions, extend loans, or fund transactions directly. Any financing product, rate, term, or offer is provided solely by an independent lender or capital provider, subject to that party’s own policies, procedures, and approval criteria.
2. No Guarantee of Approval or Funding
Submission of an inquiry, consultation request, application, or supporting documentation through the Site or to Direct Lending Connection does not guarantee approval, funding, or any specific loan amount, rate, term, or structure. All financing solutions are subject to independent lender review, underwriting standards, credit evaluation, documentation requirements, and final approval by the applicable funding source.
Direct Lending Connection makes no representation or warranty regarding the likelihood of approval, timing of funding, or suitability of any particular financing product for your business.
3. Consent to Share Information
By submitting information through the Site, contact forms, consultation scheduling tools, client portal, email, telephone, or any other channel, you expressly authorize Direct Lending Connection to collect, use, and share your information — including personal, business, and financial information — with affiliated entities and partner lenders for purposes of underwriting, review, due diligence, and funding evaluation.
This authorization includes sharing information with banks, alternative lenders, private capital sources, factoring companies, credit reporting agencies, underwriting platforms, and other third parties involved in evaluating or providing financing. Each such party maintains its own privacy practices and terms, which may differ from ours.
You represent that you have authority to provide this consent on behalf of yourself and any business entity or individual whose information you submit. If you provide information about a co-owner, guarantor, or other individual, you represent that you have obtained all necessary consent to do so.
For additional detail on how we collect, use, and protect information, please review our Privacy Policy.
4. Eligibility
The Services are intended for individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years of age and authorized to act on behalf of a U.S.-based business. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements and that all information you provide is accurate, complete, and not misleading.
5. Communications
By providing your contact information, you consent to receive communications from Direct Lending Connection and its representatives by telephone, email, SMS, and other channels regarding your inquiry or application, including through automatic telephone dialing systems and prerecorded or artificial voice technology, as permitted by applicable law. Standard message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of marketing communications as described in our Privacy Policy; operational communications related to an active inquiry may continue while we provide the Services.
6. Third-Party Lenders & Services
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, embedded scheduling or application tools, and references to independent lenders and service providers. Direct Lending Connection does not control and is not responsible for the actions, terms, privacy practices, or decisions of any third party. Your relationship with any lender or funding source is directly between you and that party.
7. No Professional or Legal Advice
Information on the Site and communications from Direct Lending Connection are provided for general informational and business development purposes only. They do not constitute legal, tax, accounting, or investment advice. You should consult qualified professionals before making financial decisions.
8. Intellectual Property
All content on the Site — including text, logos, graphics, images, and software — is the property of Direct Lending Connection or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our prior written consent.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Direct Lending Connection and its officers, employees, agents, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Site or Services, including any denial, delay, or terms of financing by a third-party lender. Our total liability for any claim arising from the Services shall not exceed the amount you paid to Direct Lending Connection for the specific service giving rise to the claim, if any.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Direct Lending Connection and its affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Site or Services, your violation of these Terms, or your submission of inaccurate or unauthorized information.
11. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last Updated” date at the top indicates when they were most recently revised. Material changes will be posted on the Site. Your continued use of the Site or Services after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising under these Terms shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
