Privacy Policy
Effective June 4, 2026
MCA Guide (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates mcaguide.ai, an independent comparison and matching service that helps business owners evaluate merchant cash advance and related funding providers. This policy explains what we collect, how we use and share it, and your choices. By using the site or submitting a request, you agree to this policy.
1. Information we collect
- Business and contact details — business name, your name, email, and phone number.
- Funding details — monthly revenue range, amount needed, timing, and industry.
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, and pages viewed, collected automatically via analytics.
Please do not submit full Social Security numbers, bank login credentials, or full account numbers through this website.
2. How we use your information
- To match you with funding providers that may fit your needs.
- To contact you about your request and your matched options.
- To operate, secure, and improve the site.
- To comply with legal obligations.
3. How we share your information
MCA Guide is a comparison and matching service, not a lender. When you submit a request, we share your details with the provider(s) we match you with so they can evaluate and contact you. Their own privacy policies then govern their use of your data. We use service providers (such as hosting and analytics vendors) who process data on our behalf. We do not sell your personal information and do not broadcast your contact details to an open pool of brokers. We may disclose information if required by law.
4. Cookies and analytics
We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand site usage. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
5. Phone and email contact
By submitting the form, you agree that we and the matched provider may contact you by phone, text, or email about funding options, including at the number you provide. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out anytime by replying STOP, unsubscribing, or contacting us.
6. Retention and security
We keep your information only as long as needed to provide the service and meet legal requirements, and use reasonable safeguards. No system is 100% secure.
7. Your choices and rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your information, and ask us to stop contacting you. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights (for example under the CCPA/CPRA). Email [email protected].
8. Children
The service is for business owners and is not directed to anyone under 18.
9. Changes
We may update this policy. The “Effective” date reflects the latest version.
