Protecting your privacy is important to O’Bannon Banking
Company and our employees. We want you to understand what information
we collect and how we use it. In order to provide you with a broad
range of financial products and services as effectively and conveniently
as possible, we collect and retain information about you only when
we reasonably believe that the information will assist us in managing
your accounts and services and in providing products, services
and other opportunities to you. One of the main reasons we collect
certain information is to protect your account and to identify
you when we conduct transactions with you. The information we collect
will also be used to comply with certain laws and regulations that
may apply to us and to help us understand your financial needs
as we design or improve our products and services. We will also
use your information to administer your account and transactions
and to provide you with products and services that will best assist
you. The following policy serves as a standard for all O’Bannon
Banking Company employees for collection, use, retention, and security
of nonpublic personal information.
What Information We Collect
We may collect “nonpublic personal information” about
you from the following sources:
- Information we receive from you
on applications or other loan and account forms;
- Information about your transactions with
us or others; and
- Information we receive from third parties such as credit
bureaus.
“Nonpublic personal information” is nonpublic information
about you that we obtain in connection with providing a financial
product or service to you. For example, nonpublic personal information
includes information regarding your account balance, payment history,
and overdraft history.
What Information We Disclose
We are also permitted by law to disclose nonpublic information
about you in certain circumstances to third parties, which are
not part of the O’Bannon Banking Company family of companies.
We do not sell or share customer information to unrelated third
parties for the third parties to use for their own purposes.
We do share information with companies that work for us. For
example, we may share information with companies that print checks
for us, mail customer statements or letters or provide data processing
services. These companies are acting on our behalf when they
provide these services and are obligated by contract to maintain
the information they receive in a confidential manner. They are
not authorized to use the information for any other purposes.
We also provide information:
When you authorize us to release
information;
To credit
reporting agencies;
To other parties when it
is necessary or helpful in completing a transaction you initiate,
including other financial institutions and networks involved
in processing your transactions;
- To comply
with a law, regulation, court order or subpoena;
- To
verify the existence of your account and general
information about the condition of your account for a merchant
or other financial institution;
- In response to an inquiry about whether a check you
have written on an account will clear;
- To local, state and federal authorities
if we believe a crime may have been committed
involving your account;
- To our independent
auditors, consultants or attorneys and to agencies
that regulate us.
We may disclose all of the information we collect as described
above to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf
or to other financial institutions with which we have joint marketing
agreements. Those third parties contractually agree not to use
the information for any other purpose.
If you decide to close your account(s) or become an inactive customer,
we will continue to adhere to the privacy policies and practices
described in this notice.
Our Security Procedures
We also take steps to safeguard customer information. We restrict
access to your personal and account information to those employees
who need to know that information to provide products or services
to you. Employees who violate these standards will be subject
to disciplinary measures. We maintain physical, electronic, and
procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to guard
your nonpublic personal information.
