Security State Bank Privacy Policy

Security State Bank is committed to protecting the privacy of its clients.


I. DISCLOSURE OF CUSTOMERS INFORMATION

Security State Bank will not share and/or sell individual customer information to any unaffiliated third party for marketing purposes.

Customer information will only be disclosed to authorized account holders, and only after identification of that account holder has been verified. Verifying information may include social security number, date of birth, place of birth, mother's maiden name, signature, and/or other identifying information. If the information request is made over the telephone and we are uncertain about the identity of the person requesting the information, we will ask that the request be made in writing or in person.

Security State Bank employees will not share personal or financial customer information with unaffiliated third parties except when legally required (in order to comply with federal or state laws/regulations, and government or court orders) or when legally permitted to serve the customer's interest (such as disclosure to reputable credit reporting agencies). Information will only be disclosed to third parties under the following conditions:

  • Where it is necessary to complete a transaction initiated by a customer.

  • In order to report the existence and condition of an account to companies such as reputable credit bureaus or merchants.

  • In order to comply with government or court orders.

  • If we have the written permission of the account holder.

 
Security State Bank will provide certain customer information to unaffiliated third party companies that we hire to provide us operational support. These unaffiliated third party companies provide services that allow us to complete transactions, such as real estate loans. Examples of these services include, but are not limited to, appraisals, title searches, flood certifications, and credit reports. Security State Bank will not knowingly do business with any unaffiliated third party provider or company that uses or sells this information for marketing purposes.


II. COLLECTION, RETENTION AND USE OF INFORMATION


Security State Bank may collect, retain and use personal information about customers (for example, we will obtain a credit report for an auto loan), but only as we believe is reasonably useful in administering our business and to provide products, services and other opportunities to customers.

III. MAINTENANCE OF ACCURATE INFORMATION


We will correct known inaccurate information in a timely manner.


IV. EMPLOYEE ACCESS TO INFORMATION AND ENFORCEMENT


All Security State Bank employees are educated on the importance of confidentiality and customer privacy. They are trained to learn and follow our Privacy Statement. Employees with access to customer information are required to adhere to the Privacy Statement.

Any employee that violates the Privacy Statement will be subject to disciplinary measures (warnings, suspensions, reprimands) and possible termination of employment.

Employees of Security State Bank will only have access to customer information on a need to know basis.

Security State Bank recognizes the trust you have placed in us, and our responsibility regarding your financial privacy. It is our responsibility to keep your sensitive financial and personal information confidential.

Web Site Security

Security State Bank will implement technology to help assure that any sensitive personal information you provide us or any account information you receive on-line is done in a safe and secure manner. Special secure-connection hardware and software (commonly called "firewalls") will be in place to help assure the security of on-line communication of your information. Additionally, we will implement procedures to help assure that only authorized Security State Bank employees may view the information you share with us. This is accomplished by limiting access to that information (via access capability and password control) to only those employees having a legitimate business purpose for viewing or responding to your information or inquiries.

This is the same procedures we follow for our customers that utilize other banking methods, such as telephone banking or branch banking.

Web Site Privacy

Our Web Site includes sections that are public (not password protected) and areas that are password protected (for example, individual banking areas).

When any person visits the public areas of our Web Site, we may collect certain basic information, such as how many people visited our site and what pages were visited.

Unlike the personal information that you provide and view with respect to your personal banking relationship (which is subject to the security procedures described above), all of the information we may gather in the public areas of our Web Site is general. We use this general information to determine which parts of our Web Site are most popular, how people access our site, how we can improve the content of our Web pages, and how we can improve service to our customers.

Your Control of Your Personal Information

We do not share information with any third parties (other than as required by law, regulation or contractual obligations), so you should not receive information from another company as a result of providing information to Security State Bank.
