First Credit Union (“we”, “our”, or “us”) collects only relevant personal information about our members and potential members (“you” or “your”) that the law allows, or requires us to have to conduct our business. Personal information is collected from you at the time an application for credit union membership, a loan or share savings account is submitted to us, at the time transactions are conducted through our digital banking services, and at the time you provide information via e-mail (including the name, e-mail address, and any other information on the e-mail header).
For your protection, we use a process called SSL (Secure Socket Layer) to secure digital credit union sessions taking place on secure pages. SSL encryption converts our Internet secure page communication between you and us – from your password to your money transfer requests – into a string of encrypted characters. Only we and your computer can decode the information. This process safeguards your digital credit union transactions from intruders. We will deny members using a browser that is not set up with SSL encryption access upon login.
Also, First Credit Union is registered with DigiCert, a digital signature company, insuring that when you visit our web site it will be the credit union’s web site and not an intruder acting in our name.
For further information regarding our policies and practices for safeguarding non-public personal information about you please refer to our Privacy Policy.
