To exercise the access and data portability rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by contacting us at support@prizmfunding.com or 855-747-2700.

Only you, or a person authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

• Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information.

For data portability requests, we provide your personal information in a format that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance either in writing, electronically, or through your account.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.
