Internet UseProtecting Your PrivacyFieldstone Mortgage Company is committed to protecting your privacy. You have chosen to do business with us and we recognize our responsibility and obligation to keep the information you provide us secure and confidential. You can be sure that our commitment to protect your financial and personal information will continue under the principles and online guidelines described below.
Working to Meet your Needs Through InformationWe hope that after reviewing the website, you will decide to apply for a loan online so that we can assist you in finding the best mortgage for your needs. When you apply online, we ask the same information that would be required in a handwritten, over-the-phone, or face-to-face application including, information about your employment, income, current residence, phone numbers, debts and monthly obligations, social security number and other personal information.
Keeping Your Information SecureWhen you fill out an application online, your personal information is encrypted using 128-bit secure sockets layer encryption technology before being sent over the Internet. This makes it virtually impossible for your information to be stolen or intercepted while being transferred through cyberspace. To offer further protection to its website users applying for a loan online, Fieldstone DOES use Cookies. Once received, your application is kept encrypted until we are ready to process it. You will receive a written copy of your application and will be asked to sign it at or before consummation of the loan transaction.
How and Why Information is SharedYour information is held in strict confidence with protection for you, both as a mortgage applicant and website user. We do NOT provide any information about you to any third party unless they are directly related to the loan process, like appraisers and mortgage professionals working on your application, and with our affiliates when allowable by applicable law. Just like a traditional lender, we will use your social security number, name, and current address to pull a credit report. We do NOT sell names or e-mail lists to third parties.
When Information is Collected and Not CollectedSome areas of our website require information, such as your email address and account number, to allow you to perform certain tasks (for example, track the status of your loan online.) In these cases, we collect information from you so that we can interact with you. Otherwise, you may browse the site anonymously and no personal information is collected. However, your visit itself, and how you use the web pages, may be recorded for marketing and statistical purposes to assist us in improving the website for future visitors. We gather and analyze data regarding usage of our website, including domain name, pages visited, length of user session, etc. to evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of our site.
No Date "Capture" with Planning ToolsThere are many planning tools throughout our website to help you make the financial decisions that are right for you in the privacy of your own home. We do not capture the personal information you provide on these planning tools, examples include the Mortgage Principal and Interest Calculator and the Debt Consolidation Calculator.
