Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 21, 2026
This policy explains what information The Agent Advance collects through theagentadvance.com, how we use and share it, how we protect it, and the choices you have.
Who we are
theagentadvance.com is operated by Agent Advance, LLC (“The Agent Advance,” “we,” “us” or “our”). We provide commission advances to real estate agents and brokers who have a home under contract.
Information we collect
When you apply for an advance, you give us:
- Your full name, address, phone number and email address
- Your company and/or brokerage
- The address of the home under contract and the advance amount you request
- The documents you upload: your purchase contract and your compensation agreement
These documents usually include details about the sale, such as the price and the closing date, and information about other people involved, such as the buyers and sellers. We use that information only to review and service your advance.
We also keep what you share with us when you call, text or email us. Calls and texts to our phone number go through our phone service provider, which logs your phone number and details such as the date, time and length of a call. We use this to respond to you and to see how people find us. We do not record calls.
When you visit the site, our website host automatically receives the technical details every browser sends, such as your IP address, browser type, the page requested, and the date and time. This is used to deliver the site and keep it secure.
Cookies and tracking
This website does not use cookies for advertising or analytics, and it does not load tracking tools from other companies. Our explainer video and our fonts are stored on this site, so watching the video does not send your information to a video service.
How we use your information
- To review your application and confirm the details of the sale and your commission
- To contact you about your application and your advance
- To prepare, fund and keep records of your advance
- To arrange repayment of the advance from your commission at closing
- To meet our legal, tax and accounting obligations
- To prevent fraud, spam and misuse of the site
- To tell you about our services, if you agree to hear from us. You can opt out at any time.
How we share your information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with other companies for their own marketing. We share it only as needed to run our business:
- Service providers. These are companies that host this website, receive and store form submissions, filter spam, deliver email, handle our phone calls and text messages, and provide banking or payment services. They may use your information only to do that work for us.
- People involved in your sale. This means your brokerage and the closing attorney or title company handling your closing, so we can confirm the transaction and be repaid from your commission at closing.
- Legal reasons. We share information when the law requires it, such as for a court order or subpoena, or when it is needed to protect our rights, prevent fraud, or keep someone safe.
- Business changes. If our business is sold, merged or reorganized, your information may transfer as part of that change, and this policy will continue to apply to it.
Text messages
If you give us your mobile number, we may text you about your application or your advance. Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to stop receiving texts, or HELP for help. We do not sell, rent or share your mobile number or your consent to receive texts with any third party for their marketing.
How we protect your information
Information you send through this site, including uploaded documents, travels over an encrypted (https) connection. Access to applications is limited to the people who need it to review and service advances. No website or storage system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
How long we keep your information
We keep your information for as long as we need it to review your application, provide and collect your advance, and meet our legal, tax and accounting requirements. When we no longer need it, we delete it or remove the details that identify you.
Your choices
- You can ask to see the personal information we have about you, or ask us to correct or delete it. Some records we are required by law to keep.
- You can opt out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us.
- You can stop text messages at any time by replying STOP.
Depending on where you live, state law may give you additional privacy rights. To make any request, contact us using the details below. We may need to confirm your identity before we act on it.
Children
This site and our services are for licensed real estate professionals. They are not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version on this page and change the effective date at the top.
