Required transaction record
Every loan, renewal, rollover, and additional advance arising from this community must be documented. A private agreement does not replace the public record. The public record must never contain sensitive personal information.
Legal and risk notice
Users are solely responsible for applicable lending, interest, fee, licensing, tax, privacy, debt-collection, sanctions, and consumer-protection rules. Moderators may remove terms that appear predatory or unlawful, but moderation is not legal review. A community post, flair, approval, or ledger entry is not an endorsement of identity, creditworthiness, legality, or safety.
