A secured loan is a loan in which the borrower pledges some
asset (e.g. a car or property) as collateral for the loan, which
then becomes a secured debt owed to the creditor who gives the
loan.

When a debt or loan is personally secured, it means that the
person who took out the loan has used something as security in case
they default on the loan. A mortgage is an example of a secured
loan.
