Privacy Policy
The same rules apply to former customers as apply to current customers. When we use the terms “nonpublic personal information,” we mean personally identifiable information that is not publicly available, such as your name, address, phone number, social security number, credit score and credit history, and credit card information and balances.
Information We Disclose
Sharing Information with Our Affiliates: Unless you tell us not to (called “opt out”), we may share all of the information we collect, as described above, with companies in our corporate family (called “affiliates”). Our affiliates include financial service providers, such as other non-profit credit counseling agencies.
Sharing Information with Nonaffiliated Third Parties: Unless you tell us not to (called “opt out”), we may share all of the nonpublic personal information we collect, as described above, with nonaffiliated companies outside our corporate family. We will share this information when we believe these other companies are able to extend services or products that might be of value to you. These other companies may be financial service providers (such as insurance agents).
We also may disclose any nonpublic personal information to anyone as permitted by law. For example, we disclose information about you to third parties with your consent or at your direction or if disclosure is necessary to effect, administer, or enforce your transaction with us. For example, we will share your loan repayment data with the credit reporting agencies and service providers that assist us with the functions that we provide on your behalf pursuant to the service for which you have engaged us. In addition, we may disclose all of the information we collect, as described above, to companies that perform services and functions, including marketing services, on our behalf and we may disclose some of this information to other financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing agreements.
Protection of Your Information
We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those employees who need to know that information to provide products or services to you. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to guard your nonpublic personal information.

Note: Even if you direct us not to share information with companies outside our corporate family, we may disclose nonpublic personal information as permitted by law and to companies that perform services and functions, including marketing services, on our behalf. We also may disclose some of this information to other financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing agreements.
