Collecting Personal Information
When you make a purchase from us, we will ask you for your name, home address and phone number.

We require this information in order to process your purchase. If you choose to make a payment over the phone, we will require the security code off the back of your credit card. This is to confirm your identity on the phone.
In addition to your name, address and phone number, if you are applying for credit, we, on our own behalf and as agent for CitiFinancial Canada, Inc., collect additional personal information as provided for on the application form insofar as it relates to your credit history and creditworthiness.
