  9. A Borrower will be given an option to exit digital loan by paying the principal and the proportionate APR without any penalty during the cooling off\/look-up period. The period will not be less than 3 days for loans having tenor of 7 days or more and 1 day for loans having tenor of less than 7 days.<\/li>\n
  10. REs will ensure that all the collection of data by their DLAs and LSPs must be taken with the explicit consent of the borrower. On time access will be taken for camera, microphone, location.,etc only for the purpose of KYC with the consent of the borrower.<\/li>\n
