INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU 

We collect information about you to help us serve your financial needs to provide you with quality products and services and fulfill legal and regulatory requirements. We consider all information about you in our possession to be personal information, even if you cease to be a customer. The personal information we collect about you may include among other things: 

  • Identifying information, such as your name, age, address, phone number, and social security number.
  • Employment information.
  • Financial information such as your income, assets, and liabilities, as well as information about your savings, investments, insurance, and business.

These sources may include among others, employers, attorneys, banks, lenders, title insurers, insurance companies, credit reporting agencies, our Company’s mobile services, and online web applications.

INFORMATION COLLECTED VIA TECHNOLOGY

Cookies – Similar to other online services, we utilize cookies to gather data. Cookies refer to small bits of data that a website transfers to your computer’s hard drive while you browse the website. We may use both session cookies (that expire after you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (that stay on your computer until you remove them) to provide you with a more personalized and engaging experience on our website. This information is collected to enhance your user experience and customize your interactions with us to meet your specific interests and requirements. Additionally, we may also collect information about your email interactions, such as the links you click and your interactions with linked sites.

Information Collected by Our Servers – To enhance the usefulness of our website and services, we collect information from you through our servers (which may be hosted by a third-party service provider). This information may include your browser type, operating system, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address (a unique number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you access the Internet, and may vary from session to session), domain name, and/or the date and time of your visit.

Log Files – Like most websites, we automatically collect certain information and store it in log files. This data includes IP addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (“ISP”), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. The information is utilized to prevent fraud, analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, gather demographic information about our user base, and personalize our service to better suit our users’ preferences.

Google Analytics – We utilize Google Analytics to examine how users use our website. This tool uses Cookies to gather data, such as how frequently users visit the site, what pages they view, and what other websites they accessed prior to visiting ours. The information we obtain from Google Analytics is used solely to enhance our website and services. Google Analytics only collects the IP address assigned to you during your visit to the site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not merge the information produced by Google Analytics with your Personal Data. While Google Analytics places a persistent Cookie on your web browser to recognize you as a unique user on subsequent visits, only Google can use this Cookie. Google’s capacity to utilize and distribute data acquired by Google Analytics about your use of our site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act gives you the opportunity to limit the sharing of “non-experience information” among our affiliates. “Non-experience information” includes information that is used, expected to be used, or collected for the purpose of establishing your eligibility for consumer credit, insurance, or deposit accounts, and is not related solely to your transactions or other experiences with us, including information:

  • From your applications, such as your income or marital status;
