Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses
An IP address is a number that's automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Web. Web servers-the computers that "serve up" Web pages-automatically identify your computer by its IP address.

FundsXpress does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a user's session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to FundsXpress and us.

FundsXpress may use IP addresses to audit the use of our site. FundsXpress can and will use IP addresses to identify a user when necessary for security purposes.

Visitors to the Website
Visitors to our website remain anonymous. We do not collect unique identifying information about you unless you voluntarily and knowingly provide us that information. We do not send website visitors a "cookie".

FundsXpress does collect and disclose general information to us about all visitors to both the website and portal, such as when you accessed our site, which pages you accessed in our website, and what Internet provider you used when you accessed our site.

You may elect to provide us with more specific information, such as when you give us feedback, register for the portal, or send us an email. If you provide us this information, it is only used internally and in furtherance of the purpose for which it was provided.

We do not disclose or sell to any third-party information that we collect or that is provided to us from visitors to our website. We do not send advertisements or email to someone who just visited our website.

Use of Cookies

Internet Banking:
When you log on to our Internet banking system, our service provider, FundsXpress, passes a cookie to your browser. The cookie only identifies your computer. FundsXpress does not (and cannot) use cookies to collect or obtain new personal information about you.

Instead, the cookie is stored in the memory of your browser, identifying your computer while you are logged on. Only FundsXpress can read the information in these cookies. When you log off, close your browser, or turn off your machine, the cookie is estroyed. 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.

This information would be disclosed only to help us develop more effective advertising programs and to assist us in offering products, services that should be of interest to you.

For example, such information might include: the number of users shopping on the Internet at a particular time of day, the number of users using AOL browsers, he number of users shopping for new cars, the number of users shopping for mortgage loans.

Improved marketing practices would allow us to only market products and services that may be of particular interest to you or save you money.
