IBC Bank Privacy Statement

Enhanced Security Program

The increased use of online banking and financial services and the surge of identity theft have prompted Federal regulators to mandate security enhancements for internet-based financial services for all financial institutions. We want to keep your information safe and secure, so these security enhancements continue to be a top priority for us. These changes are designed to validate authorized users for your account and thus help provide even greater security for your financial information. For Internet-based financial products and services, single-factor authentication - such as User ID and Password provided at login - may be insufficient as the only validation for identity. Therefore, we will ask for additional information to be used intermittently when logging into your account.

FAQ

  • Why is IBC requesting this additional information? In keeping with the Federal regulator's mandate, we will request additional information which will be stored in IBC Bank Online for future use in helping to confirm your identity. Beginning soon, after you log in to IBC Bank Online using your usual User ID and Password, you will be greeted with a new security page. This page will prompt you to select and provide answers to several security questions.

Remember, It is not IBC Bank's practice to share your name with any contacts outside our firm in a manner inconsistent with our Privacy Policy.

What Personal Information we collect and Why
Here we describe what information is collected and reasons for collecting it. The categories of information collected are as follows:

Site visit trackers
Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to track their journey through the website.

Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer's IP address, which could be used to personally identify you, but Google does not grant us access to this. We consider Google to be a third-party data processor (see section below).

GA makes use of cookies, details of which can be found on Google's developer guides. Our website uses the analytics.js implementation of GA. Disabling cookies on your internet browser will stop GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages within this website.

In addition to Google Analytics, this website may collect information (held in the public domain) attributed to the IP address of the computer or device that is being used to access it.

Email links
We only receive an email when a user mails us using an email link. There are no third-party data processors or intermediaries involved.
The data is collated into an email and sent to us over the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL) meaning that the email content is encrypted before being sent across the internet. The email content is then decrypted by our local computers and devices.

Revenue Recovery Emails
As part of Revenue Recovery model, we work with re-marketing service companies to send notification messages if you have abandoned your cart without making a purchase. This is for the sole purpose of reminding customers to complete the purchase if they'd wish to. The re-marketing service companies do a real-time capture of your email ID and cookies to send an email invite to complete the transaction if the customer abandons the cart. However, the email ID of the customer is deleted from their database as soon as the purchase is complete.

"Do Not Sell My Data" - why we don't have it
