Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 19, 2026
This policy covers brianpoetschlag.com (the "site"), operated by Brian Poetschlag, a mortgage loan originator (NMLS #487617) at West Capital Lending, Inc. (NMLS #1566096). If you apply for a loan, West Capital Lending's own privacy notice also applies, and it governs how your loan file is handled.
What we collect
Information you give us. When you use the contact form or the lead form, we collect what you enter: your name, email, mobile number, property state, address, city, ZIP, the loan goal you select, the cash amount you're looking for, and your consent choices. When you book through the calendar, the booking tool collects your name, contact details and the time you choose.
Information the tools use. The Equity Snapshot and the HELOC payment calculator run in your browser. The numbers you type into them are not sent to us unless you also submit a form.
Information collected automatically. Like most sites, we collect basic technical data such as your browser type, device, pages visited, referring site and approximate location from your IP address. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used.
We don't ask for your Social Security number, bank account numbers or date of birth through this site, and please don't send them by email or text.
How we use it
- To answer your inquiry, prepare a loan comparison, and follow up by call, text or email as you requested.
- To schedule and confirm appointments.
- To improve the site and understand which pages help people.
- To meet legal, licensing and record-keeping requirements.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your mobile number or text-messaging consent with third parties or affiliates for their marketing purposes.
Where it goes
Form submissions go into the customer relationship management system West Capital Lending uses (GoHighLevel), so Brian and his team can follow up. The booking calendar is provided by the same system. Analytics data is processed by Google. These providers handle data on our behalf under their own security and privacy terms. If you move forward with a loan, your information is shared with lenders, credit bureaus, appraisers, title and escrow companies and others as needed to process it, as described in West Capital Lending's privacy notice.
Calls and texts
If you give consent on a form, Brian Poetschlag of West Capital Lending may contact you by call, text and email about your inquiry, including by automated means. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out of texts at any time, or HELP for help. See West Capital Lending's SMS terms for details.
Your California privacy rights
If you're a California resident, you may have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use it, to request deletion or correction, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We don't sell personal information. Some information tied to a loan application is covered by federal financial privacy law (the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) rather than the California Consumer Privacy Act. To make a request, email bpoetschlag@westcapitallending.com or call (714) 713-3133. We'll verify your identity before acting on it, and we won't treat you differently for asking.
Cookies
The site uses a small number of cookies for analytics and for the booking and form tools to work. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site still works without analytics cookies.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections for every page and form. No website or email system is perfectly secure, which is why we ask you not to send sensitive financial documents through the site.
Children
This site is for adults. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
Changes
We'll update this policy when our practices change and change the date at the top.
