PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY.
BY VISITING AND USING THIS WEBSITE AND ANY WEBSITES, WEB PAGES AND SERVICES OPERATED BY CERTIFIED TITLE COMPANY, LLC OR ITS AFFILIATES (“CERTIFIED TITLE,” “WE” OR “US”) THAT ARE LINKED (“CERTIFIED TITLE SITES”), YOU ARE AGREEING TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY.
Your use of and access to the Certified Title Sites is expressly conditioned on your acceptance of the following terms and conditions. If you do not or cannot agree with any part of the following terms and conditions, you may not use or access the Certified Title Sites. Please note that this privacy policy only applies to the information that we collect via the Certified Title Sites.
COMPANY POLICY. The privacy of your non-public personal information is important to us. We use safeguards to protect your privacy and confidentiality. This policy discusses information we collect and the manner in which it is used. We reserve the right, at any time, to add to, change, update or modify our privacy policy simply by posting such change, update or modification on the Certified Title Sites. Any such change, update or modification will be effective immediately upon posting on the Certified Title Sites.
We use good-faith efforts to maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to guard your non-public personal information. However, while we strive to protect your personal information, we do not ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
INFORMATION COLLECTION. If you do nothing during your visit but browse through the Certified Title Sites and read the information contained on the web pages, we may gather certain information about your visit automatically. This information does not identify you personally. We may automatically gather the Internet domain (for example, “companyx.com” if you use a private Internet access account), IP address (an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the web) from which you access Certified Title Sites, and the date and time you access Certified Title Sites, and the pages you visit.
We may collect non-public personal information from you when you voluntarily provide personally identifiable information to us through Certified Title Sites, such as when ordering services/products and accessing account-specific or other profile information. We may collect information about your transactions that we secure from our files and from our affiliates. We may collect information that we receive from consumer reporting agencies. We may collect information that we receive from others involved in your transactions, such as real estate professionals or lenders. We limit use of such information to the purposes for which the information was provided, except as described below. However, we reserve the right to use such information for marketing/product development research and other similar purposes and/or to contact you regarding additional services or products that you may find useful.
We may also release your information to others when we believe, in good faith, that such release is reasonably necessary to (i) comply with law, (ii) enforce or apply the terms of any of our user agreements, or (iii) protect the rights, property or safety of Certified Title, Certified Title’s users or others. We may also sell, transfer and disclose your information as part of a business divestiture, sale, merger, or acquisition of all or a part of our business.
If you send an electronic mail (email) message that includes personally identifiable information, for example, in an email message containing an inquiry, we will use that information to respond to your inquiry. Remember that email is not necessarily secure against interception or other disclosure. If your communication is very sensitive, or includes information such as your bank account, charge card or social security number, you should not send it in an email.
We may use “cookies” to improve our service to you. Cookies may help us recall a previous visit. The cookies we use do not collect personally identifiable information, and we do not use them to determine your identity.
Cookies are small files stored in your computer’s hard drive by your web browser. When you access Certified Title Sites, our computer server will access these cookies so that it can recognize your computer, and make using the website easier for you. For example, cookies allow us to remember your username and password to save you having to retype it every time you visit Certified Title Sites.
Our employees and agents may view information that you provide us in order to perform their jobs and service you. We do not authorize access to non-public personal information about you to those individuals who do not need to know that information in order to provide products or services to you, or as otherwise provided herein.
We may disclose any information that we collect about you to our affiliates or non-affiliated third parties as permitted by law. We also may disclose information about our customers or former customers and others to the following types of non-affiliated companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or with whom we have joint marketing agreements, such as financial service providers such as companies engaged in banking, consumer finance, securities and insurance, or non-financial companies such as envelope stuffers and other fulfillment service providers.
