Privacy
Policy
The following privacy principles were extablished
to maintain the security, integrity and confidentiality
of your personal financial information.
The type of information we collect -
We routinely collect and retain the information
we obtain from your account applications, transaction
history (for deposits, loans, credit cards, etc.)
and from consumer reports. This information helps
us:
-
To establish and administer
your accounts. (Example: We ask for personally
identifying information
to protect your accounts from fraud.)
-
To satisfy
certain regulatory requirements. (Example:
When you open an account that pays
interest, we are required by the Internal
Revenue Service to obtain your social security
number.)
-
Better understand you so that we may provide
you with additional or improved products and
services. (Example: We require information concerning
your credit history and your assets to determine
if you qualify for loan approval.)
| We do not share our current or
previous customers' nonpublic personal information
with affiliates or with nonaffiliated third
parties except as permitted or required by
law. |
How is that information protected?
Access to your personally identifiable financial
information is limited to employees with a specific
business reason for utilizing this data. Our employees
are educated about the importance of maintaining
confidentiality and customer privacy. If necessary,
we take appropriate disciplinary steps to enforce
our employees' responsibility to protect your very
personal information.
In order to prevent unauthorized access to your
information, we maintain security standards and
procedures that conform with industry practices.
These security standards and procedures are routinely
tested to verify the integrity of our systems.
