At Community Bank, safeguarding your personal and financial information is a core principle of our operations. We understand that trust is fundamental to our relationship, and our privacy policy reflects our unwavering dedication to maintaining the confidentiality and security of your data. This commitment extends across all our services, from online banking to in-branch interactions, ensuring that your privacy is respected at every touchpoint.
We adhere to strict regulatory standards and internal policies designed to protect your sensitive information. This includes compliance with federal laws such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), which mandates how financial institutions handle nonpublic personal information.

This information may include identifiers like your name, address, Social Security number, and contact details, as well as financial information such as transaction history, account balances, and creditworthiness. We collect this data through several methods:
We use this information primarily to process your transactions, service your accounts, provide customer support, and offer relevant financial products.

Community Bank employs multiple layers of security to protect your personal and financial information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. Our security measures include physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards. This means using encryption for online data transmission, maintaining secure computer networks, and restricting employee access to customer information to only those who need it to perform their job functions. We regularly conduct security audits and employee training to ensure our defenses are current and effective.
You also have important rights and choices regarding your personal data. You can typically review and update your contact information by logging into your online banking portal or visiting a branch.
