Legal
Welcome to Pari, an intra-family lending platform operated by Pari Finance Inc. (“Pari,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Pari website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”). By creating an account or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms in full. If you do not agree, you may not use Pari.
Pari is designed to facilitate private lending among family and friends. Pari does not lend money, broker loans, or guarantee repayments. All loan terms and agreements are private arrangements between individual users. Pari serves as a tool to track, manage, and record loans between trusted individuals. You agree not to use Pari for commercial lending, payday lending, or lending to unknown parties.
Pari may charge a service fee or processing fee on certain transactions (e.g., loan creation, disbursement, or repayment) as disclosed within the Platform. Fees are automatically calculated and displayed prior to payment. Pari uses its bank partners and Stripe Inc. to facilitate payments and subscription processing. Pari does not store payment card or bank account credentials directly.
Pari integrates with Plaid Inc. and its bank partners for bank connectivity, identity verification, and payment transfers:
You agree to comply with Plaid’s and our bank partners’ terms when using their services through Pari.
Pari partners with registered investment advisory (RIA) firms and other financial advisory firms to make the Platform available to their clients. If you access Pari through a partnered advisory firm, that firm is an independent third party. It is not an agent, employee, or affiliate of Pari, and Pari is not an agent or affiliate of the firm.
Advisory firms do not originate, underwrite, guarantee, or service loans made through the Platform, and Pari does not provide investment, tax, or legal advice on behalf of any advisory firm. With your consent or as permitted by law, Pari may share limited account or activity information with the advisory firm through which you enrolled, so the firm can support you in using the Platform. Your relationship with your advisory firm is governed by your separate agreement with that firm.
Pari uses automated systems, including artificial intelligence and machine learning models (“AI Underwriting Tools”), to help assess loan requests, for example, by analyzing repayment capacity and generating risk insights that users may consider when structuring a loan.
Consent to access banking data. By linking a bank account and using the Platform, you authorize Pari to access, retrieve, and process your banking data, including account information, balances, and transaction history obtained through Plaid, for the purpose of operating the AI Underwriting Tools and providing loan-related insights.
Consent to improve and benchmark our systems. You further grant Pari permission to use your banking data, loan performance data, and related Platform activity to train, improve, test, and benchmark our underwriting models and overall underwriting system. Where reasonably practicable, data used for these purposes will be de-identified or aggregated.
Informational only. Outputs of the AI Underwriting Tools are informational and do not constitute credit decisions, credit scores, financial advice, or a guarantee of repayment. Users remain solely responsible for deciding whether, and on what terms, to lend or borrow. You may withdraw bank account access at any time by unlinking your account, though doing so may limit or disable certain Platform features.
Your privacy is governed by the Pari Privacy Policy. By using Pari, you consent to the collection and use of data as described there. Pari may access, process, or store limited financial data as needed to enable transactions through our bank partners and Plaid, operate and benchmark the AI Underwriting Tools described in Section 8, prevent fraud or misuse, and comply with applicable laws. Pari does not sell or rent personal information.
While using Pari, you agree not to provide false or misleading information; use the Platform for illegal, fraudulent, or commercial purposes; interfere with or disrupt Platform operations or security; attempt to access another user’s account or data; or engage in harassment, abusive behavior, or harmful conduct toward other users. Violations may result in account suspension or termination without notice.
Pari is not a bank, lender, credit bureau, or financial advisor. All lending activity occurs between users and at their own risk. Pari is not a party to any loan made through the Platform and does not guarantee repayment, enforce contracts, or assume responsibility for losses or disputes between users.
No liability for missed payments or defaults. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pari shall have no liability whatsoever for any missed, late, or partial payment, or for any borrower default, insolvency, or failure to repay any loan, in whole or in part. Lenders bear the full risk of non-repayment. Outputs of the AI Underwriting Tools are provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pari, its officers, employees, and affiliates from any claim, loss, or liability arising out of your use of the Platform, your financial transactions (including any missed payment or loan default), or your violation of these Terms.
You may close your account at any time, provided the account has a zero balance, which can be achieved through full payment or loan forgiveness from both parties. Pari may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, engage in fraud, or act in a way that harms other users or Pari’s integrity. Sections regarding data, liability, indemnification, and intellectual property survive termination.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA. Any dispute or claim arising from these Terms or your use of Pari will be resolved through binding arbitration in Delaware, unless otherwise required by law.
We may modify these Terms from time to time. If significant changes occur, we will notify users via email or in-app notice. Your continued use of Pari after such notice means you accept the updated Terms.
