Health Midwest Credit Union recognizes
the importance of protecting the privacy of personal information about
our members and it is our goal to protect that information in every way
we interact with members, whether it be in a branch, at one of our
ATM's, on the telephone, or online through the Internet. We shall
continue to protect information entrusted to us by our members and will
not sell member information to non-affiliated third parties.
We limit the collection and use of member
information that we require to deliver quality member service, which
includes advising members about our products and services, and to help
us to respond to member questions and applications, as well as provide
account information members may request. Health Midwest Credit Union
does not share information about our members with other companies except
in an effort to provide member service either through the credit union
or to make special offers available that we feel may be of interest to
our members. If any of our vendor relationships require disclosure of
member information in order to provide service to our members, we will
require that the vendor not use member information for any other
purpose.
Members also have a responsibility in
protecting their privacy. Members are advised to protect account
numbers, plastic card numbers, PIN's (personal identification numbers)
or passwords. Members will want to exercise caution when disclosing
account numbers, social security numbers, etc. to other persons. Members
are encouraged to keep information with us current to enable us to
deliver account information and to enable us to contact them immediately
if we should detect potentially fraudulent or unauthorized activity.
Health Midwest Credit Union may disclose
information on member accounts or information contained in member files
to an appropriate third party, such as a credit bureau. We may also
provide information to regulatory authorities or law enforcement in
accordance with applicable law.
Members are encouraged to contact the
Health Midwest Credit Union with any questions that they may have
regarding credit union policies.
