Bank of Hebrew Online Privacy Notice

 

Last updated March 5, 2019

Bank of Hebrew (BoHeb) operations rely on trust and your privacy is just as important to us as your finances. We conduct regular assessment reviews of our policies and operate in accordance with rigorous privacy standards to ensure that personal information we collect, use and/or share is protected. This Online Privacy Notice (“policy”) describes how BoHeb manages personal information about you when you interact with us online through our websites, mobile applications, event registration sites and social sites through your computer, smartphone, tablet or other mobile devices.

 

What this policy covers

This BoHeb policy covers how we collect personal information when you visit, use, or interact with BoHeb websites, mobile applications and other online services including our ads displayed through online services operated by us or non-affiliated third parties. It describes how we may use and share personal information collected to deliver products and services to you and for advertising or event management purposes as well as explains your privacy options and rights. Our online services are intended for and limited to Hebrews on the continent and in the diaspora outside Hebrew. The term “BoHeb” or “we”, “us” or “our” in this Notice refers to BoHeb Corporation and its banking and non-banking affiliates or subsidiaries in Hebrew and other countries we would have established a subsidiary prior to updating this policy.

By using our Sites, mobile applications, and other online services, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Notice. If you visit or use one of our online services in the United States or any country outside of Hebrew, your information may be processed in the U.S. or in the country you accessed the site from and transferred to BoHeb HQ. If you do not fit in with the audience, stop and do not use our services.

 

What this policy does not cover

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the websites, mobile applications, or other online services of the Corporation and its affiliates. It also does not apply to non-BoHeb companies, such as our co-branded partners, auto dealerships and auto-finance companies, or any third-party websites that we connect to online. BoHeb works with third-party providers who are contractually obligated to comply with our policies to protect information. However, if you visit or access one of these third-party provider sites or mobile apps, please review the online privacy practices of that site or mobile app to understand the specifics of how your online personal information may be collected, used and/or shared.

 

Updates to this Notice

This Notice is subject to change. We update this Notice periodically to comply with the most recent federal and local laws. Please review it whenever you have questions. If we make changes to this Notice, we will revise the Last updated date on this page.

 

Our Online Privacy Practices

Transparency about your personal information is very important to us, which is why we ask for your consent when required, otherwise by using our Site and Mobile Apps, you consent to the collection, use and sharing of your personal information subject to and consistent with applicable laws, regulations and other notices you may have received based on your relationship with us.

 

Linking to other sites

We may provide links to non-affiliated third-party sites, such as credit bureaus, service providers or merchants. If you follow links to sites not affiliated with, or controlled by BoHeb, you should review their privacy and security policies as well as other terms and conditions, as they may be different from those of our Sites and Mobile Apps. BoHeb does not guarantee and is not responsible for the privacy or security of these sites, including the accuracy, completeness or reliability of their information.

 

Protecting your personal information

Protecting your personal information is as important to us as protecting your finances. In order to protect personal information from unauthorized access and use, we use security measures that comply with applicable federal, national and state laws. These measures may include device safeguards, secured files and buildings as well as oversight of our third-party providers to ensure personal information remains confidential and secure. In the event of a data breach, we provide timely notification, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

We also acknowledge the importance of protecting privacy where children are involved. Our Sites and Mobile applications are not marketed to individuals under the age of 12, and we request that these individuals do not provide personal information through our Sites and Mobile Apps. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 12.

 

Accuracy of personal information

Keeping your personal information accurate and up to date is very important. If your personal information is incomplete, inaccurate or not current, please make the change directly from your account, update your KYC (confirm your credentials), use the Contact Us option on our Sites and Mobile Apps, or call or write to us at the telephone numbers or appropriate address for changes listed on your account statements, records, online or other account materials.

We may use these tools to collect information for debugging, fraud prevention, session management, and other necessary purposes.

These tools include:

  • Server logs. Server logs automatically record information and details about your online interactions with us. Server logs may record information about your visit to our website on a particular time and day.

You may be able to manage cookies on your device.
  • Pixel tags. A pixel tag (also known as a web beacon, clear GIF, pixel, or tag) is an image or a small string of code that may be placed in a website, advertisement, or email. It allows companies to set or read cookies or transfer information to their servers when you load a webpage or interact with online content.

Our mobile applications may include third-party software development kits (“SDKs”) that allow us and our service providers to collect information about your mobile app activity.

  • Third-party plugins. Our Online Services may include plugins from other companies, including social media companies (e.g., the Rogachat “Like” button). These plugins may collect information, such as information about the pages you visit, and share it with the company that created the plugin even if you do not click on the plugin. These third-party plugins are governed by the privacy policies and terms of the companies that created them.

Additional Information Third-party data sharing

Some companies may offer aggregation websites and services that allow you to share your data with them in order to consolidate your account information from different sources (such as your accounts with us or with other financial institutions) so that you can view it in one location or perform actions related to your accounts using their services. To do this, a third party may request you to authorize access to your BoHeb accounts by providing your BoHeb user ID and password or by providing your information-sharing consent directly to BoHeb.

• The third party may access, on your behalf, information about you, your BoHeb relationship, and your

accounts at BoHeb.

• You should use caution and ensure that the third party has appropriate policies and practices to protect the privacy and security of any personal information you provide or to which they are gaining access.

• Use of your information by the third party is governed by your agreement with them, not by BoHeb. We recommend reviewing the third parties’ policies before sharing your personal information to understand how they will use and store your account information. For example, look for whether they sell any of your personal information, and if your information will be transferred, processed, or stored outside of the United States.

• We are not responsible for the use or disclosure of any personal information accessed by any company or person to whom you provide your site user ID and password.

• If you share your BoHeb user ID, password or other information about your accounts with others, we will

consider that you have authorized any transaction or action initiated by using the access information you provide.

• If you decide to revoke the authority you have given to a third party, we strongly recommend that you change your BoHeb password to ensure that the third party cannot continue to access your account.

• You may revoke your consent for certain third parties through the Security Center within BoHeb Online Banking.
