COLLATERAL RISK SOLUTIONS, INC. PRIVACY AND NONDISCLOSURE POLICY

 

Privacy Statement

• Collateral Risk Solutions, Inc. is very sensitive to privacy issues on the Internet. We believe it is important you know how we treat the information you may provide to us.

You may need to provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). We use this information for billing purposes and to fill your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this information to contact you.

How We Protect Your Personal Information

• CRS safeguards the security of the data you send us with physical, electronic, and managerial procedures. Likewise, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters, numbers and symbols, and make sure you use a secure browser.

 

• The CRS website uses industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on all web pages where personal information is required. When entering personal information, we strongly recommend an SSL-enabled web browser. Web browsers developed after Internet Explorer 3 and Netscape 3 use SSL version 3. (For the best experience at the CRS web site, recommend using Netscape 6, IE 5, or better browsers.) This protects the confidentiality of your personal and credit card information while it is transmitted over the Internet. On some areas of the CRS web site, users do have the option to use a non-SSL connection. We do this for compatibility for older browsers.

 

• When you enter credit card information on the CRS web site, we do not store credit card numbers on our servers. Credit card numbers are submitted to a credit card authorization service. This service provides CRS with credit card validation information only. We do not have access to your personal financial data.
