Because we value your patronage, we
want to address any privacy concerns you may have.
To that end, we have set forth our privacy policy for handling the
information you share with us online. We want
your decision to do business with us to be an informed one.
1. Collecting
Information
When you visit our Website, we may
collect information about you that you voluntarily choose to share
with us. This identification information may
include, but is not limited to, your name, your physical address,
your e-mail address, your telephone and fax numbers, details of
your real estate and lending needs and preferences, and other
details of your life.
What may be less obvious to you is
that, when you visit our Website, we may collect data involving
your usage through the use of "cookies" (i.e. small text
files placed on your computer by a Website), Web server logs, and
other Web tools. This technology allows us to
customize your online experience, as well as track your Internet
use. The tracking data we collect may include,
but is not limited to, the date and time you visit, the time you
spend, the Web pages you view, the other Websites you visit, your
search queries, and basic information about your computer, such as
your Internet Protocol ("IP") address, your domain name,
your browser type, and the name of your Internet service provider.
You may deactivate cookies if you do not want your browsing to be
tracked, but doing so may hinder your online experience.
When visiting our Website, you may
be directed, through hyperlinks, to other Websites that are beyond
our control. Furthermore, when you are visiting
our Website, other companies, such as third party advertisers and
sponsors, may be gathering information about you.
This Privacy Policy does not cover the collection of information
by those other companies and Websites. Although
we encourage third parties to provide their own privacy policies,
we are not responsible for their activities, such as how they
handle the information they collect online.
2. Using Information
Collected
We primarily use the identification
information you voluntarily share with us to customize your online
experience and to do what you have asked of us.
We also use your identification information to tell you about our
products and services, but you may instruct us not to send
communications to you by following the procedure indicated below
under "Contacting Us." On occasion,
we use your identification information to validate your identity.
As for usage tracking data, we primarily use that information to
operate and improve our Website, and to further our marketing
efforts.
As a general rule, we do not share
your information with unaffiliated third parties.
We may, however, share your information with our own personnel and
our service providers to the extent necessary to fulfill your
requests. We may also share your information
with our affiliates, but we will not share it with unaffiliated
third parties for direct marketing purposes. We
reserve the right to disclose your information under limited
circumstances, such as to cooperate with law enforcement or
judicial authorities as required by law or legal process, to
protect our own legal rights, or to protect the public good.
Whenever you are online, you run
the risk that the information you give out will fall into the
wrong hands. Although we implement and maintain
reasonable security procedures and practices to safeguard your
privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you
provide to us. We accept no responsibility or
liability for the activities of third parties.
3. Updating
Information
If you would like to review the
information about you that we have collected through our Website,
or to change that information, you can make that request by
following the procedure indicated below under "Contacting
Us." We may require that you verify your
identity before we process your request.
4. Updating Our
Privacy Policy
We may, from time to time, change
our Privacy Policy. We will notify you of any
changes by posting our updated Privacy Policy on our Website and
inserting a new "Effective Date."
5. Contacting Us
If you would like to send us a
request as indicated above, or if you have any other questions or
concerns regarding our Privacy Policy, you may contact us by
