# Lender data-boundary checklist

Updated 2026-07-23.

## Purpose

What information will a practice lender and its partners receive, and on what terms?

## Who uses this

Borrower and independent transaction counsel

## Records to gather

Lender application/disclosures; recipient and referral terms; comparable loan proposals; data-use, retention, and appraisal-access terms.

## Steps

1. Use Identify every recipient to map entities, purpose, data, authorization, retention, and onward disclosure.
2. Apply Protect the negotiation ceiling and adapt Ask in writing with counsel to the actual transaction.
3. Compare the actual loan on common terms and review the stated legal scope with the relevant documents.

## Key terms

- **Negotiation ceiling**: Maximum financing or liquidity information that may affect bargaining if disclosed.
- **Global cash flow**: Lender-defined analysis including relevant borrower and related obligations, requiring review of its assumptions.
- **Reliance rights**: Who may rely on an appraisal or valuation under its engagement terms.

## Fictional example

Fictional example: The borrower asks whether a contractor will receive the maximum loan approval or only the approved project scope and obtains a written recipient description.

## Next action

Obtain written answers about material recipients and compare documented proposals before disclosing beyond the agreed purpose.

## Limits

This Markdown checklist is a documentation aid, not a legal demand or conclusion that consumer privacy rules govern a business loan.

## AI coaching

Help me complete this DenQAI file using the context below. Explain the supplied fictional example first, then ask one question at a time about my permitted fictional or aggregate, non-identifying inputs. Treat missing values as unknown, not zero. Keep example values separate from my case. Do not invent records, source verification, contract terms or professional conclusions. Identify the missing evidence and responsible reviewer before the next action.

## AI review

Review my permitted fictional or aggregate, non-identifying draft against the DenQAI file context below. Check the actual fields, units, periods, evidence and unresolved contradictions. Use arithmetic only where the stated model supports it; a CSV has no embedded formulas. Keep missing values unknown and separate facts, assumptions and the fictional example. Return specific corrections, questions for the responsible reviewer and the next action; do not invent professional approval.
