We will also process your willingness to request formal approval from third party finance companies able to contract directly with you on terms based upon the illustration provided. If approved, we will assist with the preparation of documentation based upon the information collected, and indicate the status of progress with the dealer to facilitate delivery.
We may share your personal information with our dealers, service providers and other contractors used by us to fulfil your interest in using third party finance as a preferred payment choice, should this be available. We only use reputable third parties to consider online credit applications and ensure that they are accredited to do so.
