WHAT WE DO WITH YOUR INFORMATION

Financial companies choose how they share your personal information. Federal law gives consumers the right to limit some but not all sharing. The types of personal information we collect and share depend on the product or service you have with us. This information can include your social security number, contact information, income, account information, account balances, payment history, credit history, transaction history, medical information and credit scores.

All financial companies need to share customers' personal information to run their everyday business. In the section below, we list the reasons SWBC chooses to share and whether you can limit this sharing.

You CANNOT limit the information we share for:

  • Our everyday business purposes—such as to process your transactions, maintain your account(s), respond to court orders and legal investigations, or report to credit bureaus.
  • Our marketing purposes—to offer our products and services to you
  • Joint marketing with other financial companies
  • Our affiliates’ everyday business purposes—information about your transactions and experiences

You CAN limit the information we share for:

  • Our affiliates’ everyday business purposes—information about your creditworthiness
  • Our affiliates to market to you

Why can't I limit all sharing?

Federal law gives you the right to limit only:

  • Sharing for affiliates’ everyday business purposes—information about your creditworthiness
  • Affiliates from using your information to market to you
  • Sharing for non-affiliates to market to you

State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit sharing.

For California Residents:

In accordance with California law, we will not share information we collect about you with companies outside of our corporate family, except as permitted by law, with your consent, or to service your account. We will limit sharing among our companies to the extent required by California law.
