Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy Statement At Security Bank – New Auburn (SBNA), we strive to make life easier for our customers. One way that we do this is by using customer information to provide our customers with superior service and convenient assess to the right products and services. We also recognize that our customers have important expectations regarding the use of that information.

SBNA recognizes and respects the privacy of its customers. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards and business practices regarding personal information about our customers and their accounts. As we conduct business with customers, the Bank feels it is ITS responsibility to protect customer privacy. Safeguarding customer information is a matter that we take seriously. That is why we at Security Bank have set forth the following principles to affirm our long standing commitment to confidentiality:

1. SBNA limits the collection, use and retention of customer information. The Bank collects, retains and uses customer information for the purpose of administering its business, providing customer service and products, and complying with legal and regulatory requirements. SBNA does not sell, exchange or share its customer information with outside organizations unless the 3rd party is essential in administering Bank business. The Bank may share certain non transactional information with its affiliates, but will honor any request from a customer that such sharing with our affiliates not occur.
    

2. SBNA strives to maintain accurate information. The Bank makes every effort to maintain the most up-to-date, complete and accurate customer and account information. If you believe any information retained by the Bank is inaccurate, please call us at (715) 237-2658. We will investigate the problem, and if it is determined that the information is incorrect, we will take appropriate action quickly and according to industry practices and applicable law.
    

3. SBNA limits employee access to information. Customer information is accessible only by employees authorized or having a legitimate business reason for such information. SBNA employees are governed by a code of conduct that includes the responsibility to protect the confidentiality of customer information and appropriate disciplinary measures to enforce that responsibility.
    

4. SBNA protects information via established security procedures. The Bank maintains appropriate security safeguards and procedures regarding customer information. This includes use of passwords and access codes to prevent revealing sensitive customer information to inappropriate or unauthorized sources.
    

5. SBNA restricts disclosure of account information. The Bank does not reveal specific information about customers or their accounts to unaffiliated third parties with the following exceptions:

   1. If the information is provided to help complete a customer initiated transaction.

   2. If the customer requests it.

   3. If the information is required for legitimate bank use, in accordance with applicable law and standard banking practices. This includes informationprovided to attorneys, collection agencies, and credit reporting agencies for the purposes of collecting debt, verifying a customer's existence, and verifying a customer's account(s) condition.

   4. If the information is required by or allowed by law (for example, a subpoena or court order to produce records regarding the customer's account relationship with the Bank.) In such instances, information provided is limited to that required by the specific law.

   5. If a bank auditor or examiner for the purpose of completing an official audit or regulatory examination of the bank requires the information.
