The information will be used for the purposes of meeting your banking needs and requests, and providing services to you in the future.

We are taking the following steps to ensure the privacy and accuracy of the information collected from or about you: Ensuring your financial privacy is of vital importance to the Institution and its employees. The Institution limits employee access to confidential customer financial information to those with a business reason for knowing such information. Institution employees are trained to understand the importance of customer financial privacy and to properly handle confidential information. The Institution endeavors to maintain the most accurate and up-to-date customer records possible. If you find that your account information is not correct, current, or complete, please call or write us at the telephone number or address on your account statement and appropriate corrections will be made as soon as possible.

Additionally, information you submit via our online banking service is protected by encryption technology which scrambles account information to reduce the possibility of access by unauthorized individuals outside the Institution. To further protect your online banking service, the Institution requires the use of an ID and password.

You may review the information we collect about you and correct any errors in that information by reviewing account statements and any other correspondence from us and notifying us of any inaccurate or outdated information at the address or phone number on your statements.
