At Presidential, we are committed to protecting the privacy of our customers' information. We know that your financial information is personal. Our goals are to serve you as effectively and conveniently as possible and to ensure that information you share with us remains confidential. As part of our commitment, we have adopted the following Privacy principles and have implemented them at all levels of our organization. Click here to see our full Privacy Policy.
1. Privacy
of Information-Customer Expectations
Trust, privacy, and confidentiality are the most important part of our commitment
in meeting customer expectations of how we use the information we obtain. We
will maintain standards to ensure that your information is private and secure
at all times.
2. Employee
Access to Information is Limited
Presidential has policies and procedures in place that limit access to your
personal information to those employees with business reasons for knowing such
information. We have appropriate policies to enforce employee responsibilities
regarding the privacy of customer information. Our employees are aware it is
inappropriate to discuss the affairs of customers and their finances, except
with other Bank employees and outside professionals retained by the Bank, and
then only to the extent necessary for business purposes.
3.
Use, Collection, and Retention of Customer Information
We collect, retain, and use information about you in order to conduct our business
with you, satisfy legal reporting requirements, and administer our internal
operations. We may routinely collect or retain information that includes your:
(1) name, address, telephone number, social security number, annual income,
current and past employers; (2) answers to questions on deposit and loan applications;
and (3) deposit and loan balances, overdraft history and payment history with
us. We collect information from consumer reporting agencies regarding credit
and checking account histories.
We do not provide information to outside parties unless it is in direct support of your account activities. We do not sell our information to companies that offer other products and services. When we collect information about you, we do so only for a specific business purpose.
When you end your customer relationship with us, or when we end our customer relationship with you, we will treat the information we have about you as if you were still our customer.
4.
Accuracy of Information
Maintaining the accuracy of your personal
information is important. We have procedures to help assure that your personal
information is accurate, current, and complete. We also have procedures to correct
inaccurate information in a timely manner. If you discover any information we
have about you that is incorrect, please let us know.
5.
Security of Consumer Information Collected
Presidential maintains security standards and procedures regarding unauthorized
access to customer information. We constantly update and test our technology
to improve the protection of our customer information and to protect the integrity
of our systems. We do not provide information about you to anyone without first
verifying who they are and whether they may have legal access to the information.
We ask you to closely review your account and loan statements and contact us right away if you believe that someone has improperly accessed financial information about you.
6. Disclosure
of Account Information is Restricted
We do not reveal specific information about your accounts or other personally
identifiable data to parties outside our organization except for the performance
of bona fide corporate due diligence supported by a confidentiality agreement,
or under the following circumstances:
7.
Maintaining Your Privacy When We Do Business Outside Our Organization
It is sometimes necessary to provide personal information about you to a party
outside our organization.
Some examples are when we hire a vendor or service company to prepare your account statements, process checks, or to provide support for one or more of our products or services. When we work with outside businesses or companies, we require them to safeguard your personal and confidential information. These vendors must abide by applicable law.
We do not sell our customer lists. Presidential does not share information with vendors who wish to provide special offers of financial products and services, such as insurance companies or credit card issuers.
8.
Changes
Our privacy principles may change from time to time, so please check our web
site regularly to view the most current version.
9. Complaints
Because of Presidential's high commitment to confidentiality of customer information,
complaints relating to this policy should be forwarded directly to Presidential's
Compliance Officer, for prompt consideration.
