Understanding Cookies, Web Beacons and Other Technologies
ANB, or our service providers, and other companies we work with may deploy and use cookies, web beacons, local shared objects and other tracking technologies for various purposes, such as fraud prevention and monitoring or advertising and marketing campaign performance. Some of these tracking tools may detect characteristics or settings of the specific device you use to access our online services.
“Cookies” are small amounts of data a website can send to a visitor’s web browser. They are often stored on the device you are using to help track your areas of interest. Cookies may also enable us or our service providers and other companies we work with to relate your use of our online services over time to customize your experience.
Clear GIFs, pixel tags or web beacons, which are typically one-pixel, transparent images located on a webpage or in an email or other message, may be used on our sites and in some of our digital communications (such as email or other marketing messages). They may also be used when you are served advertisements, or you otherwise interact with advertisements outside of our online services. These are principally used to help recognize users, assess traffic patterns and measure site or campaign engagement.
Local Shared Objects, sometimes referred to as “flash cookies” may be stored on your hard drive using a media player or other software installed on your device. Local Shared Objects are similar to cookies in terms of their operation, but may not be managed in your browser in the same way.
Keep in mind that because cookies are stored by your browser, if you use different browsers on your computer, or multiple computers and devices that have browsers and you do not wish to have cookies collect information, you will need to opt out from each browser on each of the computers and devices that you use. Please note that even if you opt out of those preferences, you may still receive advertisements from us; they just won’t be customized based on your web-browsing activities on third-party websites.
Linking to Third-Party Websites
ANB may provide links to websites that are owned or operated by other companies (“thirdparty websites”). When you use a link online to visit a third-party website, you will be subject to that website’s privacy and security practices, which may differ from ours. You should familiarize yourself with the privacy policy, terms of use and security practices of the linked third-party website before providing any information on that website.
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
The Federal Trade Commission adopted a regulation (16 CFR 313) to implement the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which governs the collection and use and/or disclosure of personal information from and about children on the internet.
ANB does not purposefully or knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 on any Bank website by either requesting that children make personal information publicly available, enabling children to make personal information available or through the passive tracking or use of any identifying code linked to an individual.
For more information about the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), visit the FTC website: www.ftc.gov.
Security
We use reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to protect and limit access to personal information. This includes device safeguards, secured files, encryption and buildings/branches.
Please note that information you send to us electronically may not be secure when it is transmitted to us. We recommend that you do not use unsecured channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us.
Updating Your Information
Keeping your account information up to date is extremely important. You may review or update certain account information by logging in and accessing your account(s). If you cannot change the incorrect information online, or you prefer to request changes offline, please use the Contact Us option on our site or call or write to us using the contact information listed on your account statements, records, or other account materials. You can also speak to one of our branch representatives, your financial advisor, or your digital banking representative.
Changes to this Digital Privacy Policy
We may change this Digital Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will let you know by appropriate means such as by posting the revised policy on this page with a new “Last Updated” date. Any changes will become effective when posted unless indicated otherwise.
