PerformLine's Web Monitoring for Compliance

For consumer finance companies, ensuring regulatory and brand compliance across the web is critical. Yet, achieving comprehensive compliance is impossible with just manual review. 

Manual review is time-consuming, tedious, and prone to human error. And, not only do you have to review and monitor the pages you know about, but what about the thousands of other pages mentioning your brand and products that you don’t know about?

PerformLine’s Web Monitoring solution allows consumer finance companies to monitor known pages and discover unknown brand placements across the web and streamline the compliance monitoring processes at scale, thus reducing risk, increasing efficiency, and providing significant cost savings.

Here’s why leading organizations use PerformLine’s Web Monitoring for compliance—and why you should, too.

The Importance of Monitoring Across the Web for Compliance

The internet is like the wild wild west—you never know who’s mentioning or promoting your brand or what they’re saying. Whether intentional or not, any misleading or deceptive information put out by third parties can be damaging to your brand and harm consumers.

Monitoring the web for regulatory and brand compliance can help consumer finance companies:

  • Ensure compliance with regulations including Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices (UDAAP), fair lending laws, and other industry-specific guidelines
  • Discover unknown brand mentions to ensure that products and services are being promoted accurately and compliantly, everywhere they appear
  • Mitigate risk by identifying and remediating potential compliance issues before they become larger problems
  • Safeguard brand reputation by proactively identifying and addressing any misleading or non-compliant content associated with your brand to protect consumers
  • Avoid enforcement actions and costly fines by ensuring that partners, affiliates, and other third parties adhere to regulations and brand guidelines
  • Builds consumer trust by ensuring that consumer protection laws are being followed and consumers are being treated fairly
