Cookies can last only for the duration of a session (session cookies) or for several days, months, or years (persistent cookies). They can be sent by a website (first party cookie) or by or on behalf of another entity (third-party cookies).
The following sections explain the different categories of cookies
SESSION COOKIES AND PERSISTENT COOKIES
There are session cookies and persistent cookies.
- A session cookie is deleted from a Visitor’s browser when the Visitor disconnects from or leaves a website or closes down his browser.

Each of these cookies may have a different identification number. Even though these cookies may have been initiated by the same website, or the same entity, they are independent of each other.

That similar cookie will remain in effect unless and until you delete that cookie in that other browser file.

Tags or “clear GIFs” or “web beacons” are transparent electronic images that are placed into the code of a website, an advertisement, an email, or a newsletter. IPR Holdings, Inc provides the coding for the IPR Holdings, Inc tags to its Customer, and each Customer installs the tags in the code of those pages of its website, advertisement, or email, for which it wishes to keep statistics.

Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants ‘Loan Refinancing Advertiser’ Disclosure
Student loan offers that appear on this site are from companies or third-party advertising affiliates from which Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants may receive compensation. This compensation may impact how and where products appear on this site (including for example, the order in which they appear or whether a student loan provider or loan consolidation company is “featured” on the site). Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants DOES NOT include all student loan companies or all types of offers that are available in the marketplace.
Pursuant to the contracts between Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants and the Partners or Affiliates on its Network, Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants may also receive information from the Partner or Affiliate regarding the status of your application including, but not limited to, the amount or disposition of your loan. Information specific to the Partner/Affiliate’s use of your information will be found in their specific Privacy Policy.
Potential savings may vary based on the interest rates, balances and remaining repayment term of the loans you are seeking to refinance. Your overall repayment amount may be higher than the loans you are refinancing even if your monthly payments are lower. Variable rate options will fluctuate over the term of your loan with changes in the LIBOR (or other index utilized by the lender) rate and will vary based on applicable terms and presence of a cosigner. Fixed interest rates may be based on applicable terms and presence of a co-signer. Additional terms and conditions, and rates are subject to change at any time without notice and may not be available in all states or for all types of current student loans. Such changes should only apply to applications taken after the effective date of change. PLEASE NOTE: Due to federal regulations, Lenders are required to provide every potential borrower with disclosure information before they apply for a private student loan. The Lender you select is required to provide you with an Application Disclosure and an Approval Disclosure within the application process BEFORE you accept the terms and conditions of your loan. Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants is not a lender or creditor, it does not offer, extend or alter credit terms. Only participating lenders can perform the full application and deliver the required disclosures. Please ASK YOUR LENDER about rates, terms, fees, and potential discounts that may be available for each product.
Please be advised:
- Certain federal and private student loans may not be eligible for consolidation/refinance.
- Certain consolidation/refinance plans may result in higher monthly payments or negative consequences (i.e. prepayment penalties).
- Consolidation/refinance may lead to other negative results, such as loss of grace periods.
- Loans in default generally cannot be consolidated until completion of a repayment trial plan so tell your lender if you are in default and determine relevant options (be wary of those asking for upfront fees as well)
- Other options or programs may fit your needs (i.e. personal loan, debt consolidation and/or debt relief). Consult your financial and/or tax advisor prior to making any decisions.
Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants is not a creditor as it does not offer, extend or alter credit; rather it is an online information portal and in some cases a market lead generator that allows consumers to shop and compare rates, terms and costs associated with financial products such as mortgages, auto loans, personal loans, student loans, etc. Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants does not originate or fund any product it markets; rather it associates with a network of lenders or Partners/Affiliates. You may choose to speak with one or more of these lenders or Partners/Affiliates to determine what your actual terms and savings may be. Only a lender can provide you with a formal application for credit, your inquiry form here is merely an expression of interest and/or intent to obtain credit or assistance. You must discuss your actual credit situation and fill out the lender’s required documents prior to obtaining an extension of credit. Network lenders/lenders found on our sites, platforms, and networks MAY NOT have the best or the lowest rates, so you are encouraged to continue to shop and compare additional lenders, credit unions, local financial institutions, etc., to ensure you are truly getting your best deal for your situation.
You should contact your tax professional or other financial advisors to determine if you can actually realize savings by refinancing when it can extend the life of your current loan. You should ask the lender about all terms, rates, fees and costs associated with each product and if you will realize a net tangible benefit from the same. All initial estimated savings are determined by trying to calculate what your rate may be; however, Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants does not have that information and cannot guarantee potential savings or that lenders will approve you for such product that would warrant those savings. Rates are not guaranteed and change daily. Lenders/Brokers/Dealers/Partners that perform the actual underwriting will have to determine if you meet their underwriting criteria which is unknown to Student Loan Debt Relief Consultants at the time of matching/offer/quote delivery. All amounts are estimates and examples only and do not represent an actual offer.
Free Referral Services
The offers that you are matched up with are from companies or people that we may receive compensation from. Based on our initial review of such companies or individuals, we feel comfortable introducing them to you. We won’t recommend something just because we’re offered payment to endorse or promote it. However, we do recommend that you shop around and compare services and costs with other companies while performing you own due diligence, especially since people’s experiences with companies differ and can change over time.
We may be compensated for the following:
- Referrals to consumers who use the online form or locator line that may provide expert answers to questions;
- Marketing tax resolution, credit correction, student loan, consumer law services such as FDCPA and bankruptcy assistance;

- Referrals to services that help consumers with tax resolution, credit correction, student loan, consumer law services such as FDCPA and bankruptcy assistance and that may negotiate settlements on their debts.
We are not attorneys and we don’t provide legal advice.

If you are already working with an attorney, we urge you to ask them your questions. After all, they will be familiar with your situation and the laws in your state.
