Internet Website Policy

Effective 06/23/2023

Our commitment to safeguard your privacy also extends to the Internet. If you are just browsing through our website, we do not request any personally identifiable information, nor do we collect unique identifying information about you, unless you voluntarily and knowingly provide us that information, such as when you send us an email or complete an application online for the E-Banking service. If you provide us this information, it is only used internally and in furtherance of the purpose for which it was provided.

Service providers hosting our E-Banking service may collect general information on our website visitors simply to help us provide banking and other financial services to you online. They collect information on our behalf for security and statistical purposes. The information collected for these purposes may include:

  • The date and time you access our site;
  • The name and version of your web browser;
  • The Internet service provider you used when you accessed our site;
  • Your Internet Protocol (IP) address;
  • The pages visited in the E-Banking service; and
  • The length of time you stayed on the site.

Our Apiture service provider uses cookies to collect this type of information on our E-Banking users and will utilize cookies for security purposes within our E-Banking service.

What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a very small text file sent by a web server and stored on your hard drive, your computer’s memory, or in your browser so that it can be read back later. Cookies cannot “read” information about you from your computer or be used to “steal” information about you; and cookies don’t carry viruses. Cookies are a basic way for a server to identify you (most cookies actually identify the computer you happen to be using at the time, not you personally). Cookies are used for many things from personalizing start up pages to facilitating online purchases. Cookies help sites recognize return visitors and they perform a very important function when you engage in secure Internet banking. For your security, our service providers do not store any of your personal information in cookies. The cookies used in our Internet banking system(E-Banking) are further described below.

E-Banking Cookies

Our E-Banking service uses encrypted cookies that do not pass to your computer’s hard drive. Instead, the cookie is stored in your computer’s memory, identifying only your computer while you are logged on. Only our service provider can read the information in these cookies. This E-Banking cookie allows us to process multiple transactions during your session without requiring you to reenter your pass code for each individual transaction. The cookies for E-Banking simply provide another level of security for our E-Banking service. When you log off, or close your browser, the cookie is destroyed. A new cookie is used for each session. That way, no one can use the prior cookie to access your account. For additional security, the cookie expires after 10 minutes of inactivity. It must then be renewed by reentering your pass code. We do not (and cannot) use this cookie to collect or obtain new personal information about you. You must allow your browser to accept this cookie so you can use the E-Banking service.

Internet Protocol(IP)Addresses

An IP address is a number that’s automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re on the Internet. Web servers, the computers that “serve up” Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address.

When collecting information for us, Apiture does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a user’s session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous.

Apiture can and will use IP addresses to identify an E-Banking customer when necessary for security purposes.

Email Policies

In the future we may send you email notices for certain required disclosures if you choose to accept electronic disclosures or account statements. We may also send you emails marketing our products and services. We will always provide you an opportunity to opt-in or opt-out of email advertising promotions.

We offer secure email through our Internet Banking service. You should use the secure mail service anytime you send us sensitive personal information.

Disclosure of Information to Third Parties

We do not disclose any nonpublic (private) personal information about our website visitors, former visitors, or E-Banking customers to anyone, except as permitted or required by law. We do not sell any of your personal information. We must provide certain customer account information with Apiture, our E-Banking service provider, so that we may process your E-Banking transactions. Apiture has a confidentiality agreement with us to protect your personal information to the same extent that we must do.

External 3rd Party Links

Our website may have numerous links to other 3rd party sites. These links to external third parties are offered as a courtesy and a convenience to our customers. When clicking on these links, you will see our logo and the name of the link, and will be advised: You are leaving Bank of New Madrid’s web site and will be redirected to another site. Bank of New Madrid does not control these sites and makes no warranty about their contents, products, or services.

Some third party merchants may also send you a cookie to collect data on your Internet usage and preferences. When you click on advertisements at third party sites, the advertising company may also send you a cookie. With the exception of our service providers, we do NOT have access to the information collected by any third party, nor can we control how they use this information.
