Website Terms and Conditions

In these Terms and Conditions, the terms ‘we’ or ‘us’ or ‘the Credit Union’ refer to Community Credit Union Limited.

Access to this website and the use of information contained on it is governed by the Terms and Conditions set out below. These Terms and Conditions are important and are for the protection of both you and the Credit Union. Please take the time to read the Terms and Conditions carefully. By accessing and using the site you will be deemed to have accepted these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, you may not continue to access and use this website or any of the features hereon, including but not limited to the web loan enquiry website.

By submitting a web loan enquiry through this website you acknowledge and confirm:

1. The information given by me is made for the purpose of applying for and obtaining a loan,

2. The information provided is true to the best of my knowledge and belief,

3. This web loan enquiry does not constitute an offer by the Credit Union and that any future offer is subject to the underwriting procedures of the Credit Union and the Terms and Conditions of any Credit Agreement,

4. Any pricing quoted in the web loan enquiry is indicative and may vary from the price quoted in any future Credit Agreement; and

5. You are fit to follow your normal occupation or duties.

Through our interactions with you the Credit Union will collect personal information, for example when you open an account; make a deposit; or apply for a loan. We will also collect information from others, such as credit bureaus (like the Irish Credit Bureau (“ICB”) and/or the Central Credit Register (“CCR”)). To protect your information, we use security measures that comply with Irish law.

It is a necessary condition of a loan application that satisfactory credit checks and assessments be conducted by the Credit Union. These will include checks with a credit bureau or credit reference agency (such as the ICB and/or CCR) throughout the application process. Consequently, where an individual enters a credit agreement with an ICB and/or CCR member, details of the individual’s performance in complying with the terms of the agreement are input to the ICB and/or CCR database, which may be accessed by all member institutions of ICB and/or CCR. Each time a person applies for credit from an ICB and/or CCR member, that institution accesses the ICB’s and/or CCR’s ‘credit file’ to ascertain the applicant’s performance under any pervious credit agreement with ICB/CCR or members.

By submitting a web loan enquiry through this website you authorise the Credit Union to:

1. Process and retain data provided by you in respect of this application, to verify the information provided and to use it for the administration of any loan if approved;

2. Seek and to provide credit reference searches, to record details of any transaction relating to a loan or other credit agreement which may result from this application with a credit reference agency (for example the Irish Credit Bureau and/or Central Credit Register) for a period of 5 years from the date of closure of the loan and ICB and/or CCR to record, retain and disclose to its members details of such searches for a period of one year;

3. Process any information relating to you, either contained in this web loan enquiry or otherwise, for the purpose of assessing applications and administering any accounts you maintain with the Credit Union; and

4. Permit the Credit Union and/or the ICB and/or CCR to disclose any material misstatement of fact contained in the application for financial accommodation to its members and relevant bodies and consent to any such application being processed, recorded and retained by ICB and/or CCR.

We try to make sure that the information we have about you is accurate and up-to-date. Sometimes we may ask you to verify that the information we have remains accurate. If your information changes or you believe we have information which is inaccurate or not up-to-date, please let us know and we will change it.
