Alta Mortgage Corporation Privacy Statement
Your Privacy
At Alta Mortgage Corporation, respecting the privacy and security
of your personal information is important to us. We know, however,
that not everyone who takes their privacy seriously is necessarily
well-versed in "legal or regulatory-ese." There are
plenty of legal terms in Alta Mortgage Corporation's own privacy
policy, which you will find on the following pages. We urge
you to read it carefully, and make note of your rights under
this policy. We've tried to provide easy-to-understand explanations
of the most frequently used legal terms -- terms we are required
to use to ensure clarity and consistency. We want to make sure
that your personal information is protected, and that you understand
the policies that protect you. You'll find the same terms used
in many companies' privacy policies.
Cookies & Browsers
This site uses a feature of your browser called a "cookie"
to assign a "User I.D.". Cookies, by themselves, cannot
be used to find out the identity of any user. Your Alta Mortgage
Corporation User ID automatically identifies your computer -
but not you - to our servers when you visit altamortgage.com
or other Alta Mortgage Corporation Web sites. Unless you specifically
tell us who you are (for example by completing an application),
if you are just browsing our site, we will never know who you
are even though we assign you a cookie. This site contains links
to other sites. If you use a link to visit the site of another
company, we cannot be responsible for the privacy practices
or the content of that company or its site.
Safeguarding Customer Information
We only grant access to nonpublic personal information about
you (such as your name, address, social security number and
credit history) to company employees and affiliated and non-affiliated
service providers so that they can provide or offer products
and services to you, process and service your accounts, and
administer our business.
Our Code of Conduct requires that your information remain confidential.
Even if you are no longer our customer, we will continue to
treat your nonpublic personal information in the same way as
if you were still a customer. In addition, we maintain physical,
electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal
standards to guard this personal information. Some state laws
may further restrict the sharing of your nonpublic personal
information.
Collection of Information
We collect nonpublic personal information about you from the
following sources:
