Because we value your patronage, we want to address
any privacy concerns you may have. To that end, we
have set forth our privacy policy for handling the
information you share with us online. We want your
decision to do business with us to be an informed
one.
1. Collecting Information
When you visit our Website, we may collect
information about you that you voluntarily choose to
share with us. This identification information may
include, but is not limited to, your name, your
physical address, your e‑mail address, your
telephone and fax numbers, details of your real
estate and lending needs and preferences, and other
details of your life.
What may be less obvious to you is that, when you
visit our Website, we may collect data involving
your usage through the use of “cookies” (i.e. small
text files placed on your computer by a Website),
Web server logs, and other Web tools. This
technology allows us to customize your online
experience, as well as track your Internet use. The
tracking data we collect may include, but is not
limited to, the date and time you visit, the time
you spend, the Web pages you view, the other
Websites you visit, your search queries, and basic
information about your computer, such as your
Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, your domain name,
your browser type, and the name of your Internet
service provider. You may deactivate cookies if you
do not want your browsing to be tracked, but doing
so may hinder your online experience.
When visiting our Website, you may be directed,
through hyperlinks, to other Websites that are
beyond our control. Furthermore, when you are
visiting our Website, other companies, such as third
party advertisers and sponsors, may be gathering
information about you. This Privacy Policy does not
cover the collection of information by those other
companies and Websites. Although we encourage third
parties to provide their own privacy policies, we
are not responsible for their activities, such as
how they handle the information they collect online.
2. Using Information Collected
We primarily use the identification information you
voluntarily share with us to customize your online
experience and to do what you have asked of us. We
also use your identification information to tell you
about our products and services, but you may
instruct us not to send communications to you by
following the procedure indicated below under
“Contacting Us.” On occasion, we use your
identification information to validate your
identity. As for usage tracking data, we primarily
use that information to operate and improve our
Website, and to further our marketing efforts.
As a general rule, we do not share your information
with unaffiliated third parties. We may, however,
share your information with our own personnel and
our service providers to the extent necessary to
fulfill your requests. We may also share your
information with our affiliates, but we will not
share it with unaffiliated third parties for direct
marketing purposes. We reserve the right to disclose
your information under limited circumstances, such
as to cooperate with law enforcement or judicial
authorities as required by law or legal process, to
protect our own legal rights, or to protect the
public good.
Whenever you are online, you run the risk that the
information you give out will fall into the wrong
hands. Although we implement and maintain reasonable
security procedures and practices to safeguard your
privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any
information you provide to us. We accept no
responsibility or liability for the activities of
third parties.
3. Updating Information
If you would like to review the information about
you that we have collected through our Website, or
to change that information, you can make that
request by following the procedure indicated below
under “Contacting Us.” We may require that you
verify your identity before we process your request.
4. Updating Our Privacy Policy
We may, from time to time, change our Privacy
Policy. We will notify you of any changes by posting
our updated Privacy Policy on our Website and
inserting a new “Effective Date.”
5. Contacting Us
If you would like to send us a request as indicated
above, or if you have any other questions or
concerns regarding our Privacy Policy, you may
contact us by e‑mail at
billjordan@jordanlink.com or call us at (559)
733-9696.
6. Effective Date:
This Privacy Policy is effective as of January
15, 2005.
