Optimus Home Mortgage does not share nonpublic or public personal information. We will continue to protect your privacy.
Safeguarding your personal financial information and credit is as much a part of our business as originating loans. We recognize and are guided by the belief that protecting each person's right of privacy is fundamental to the quality of customer relationships. We cherish your business and the trust you place in us.
To offer you the financial products and service you need and desire we collect and use information about you. To help you better understand how your personal information is protected, we are providing you with this statement describing our practices and policies with respect to the privacy and confidentiality of customer information.
Our Privacy Disclosure Policy
We collect nonpublic personal information about you on applications or other forms during the application process, gathered from transactions or experiences with us, and obtained from other authorized sources such as consumer reporting agencies. All information collected and stored by Optimus Home Mortgage is used for specific business purposes such as originating your loan, complying with state and federal regulations, protecting against fraud and developing a better understanding of your financial needs to provide you with improved products and services.
Categories of Information We Disclose
We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about our customers or former customers to anyone, except as permitted by law. We are permitted by law to disclose such information about you to other third parties in certain circumstances. For example, we may disclose nonpublic personal information about you to third parties who assist us in obtaining your loan, to government agencies in response to lawful subpoena, to any customer or company, which you specifically authorize and to mortgage companies who are funding your loan.
We DO NOT disclose any of the information we collect as described herein to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or to other financial institutions with whom we have joint marketing agreements.
We DO disclose non public information (excluding your personal private information) to the various Real Estate Agents involved in any purchase transaction through our Loan Status Tracking system. The progress of your loan application through the various stages of processing are sent by email to these agents to keep them updated as to the status of your loan file. No personal private information is sent- but rather the dates items were requested and received by our office. (ie, appraisal, titlework, verifications etc.)
Confidentiality and Security
We understand that the protection of your nonpublic personal information is of utmost importance. Guarding your privacy is our obligation and Optimus Home Mortgage maintains strict procedures and policies to safeguard that privacy.
We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those employees who have a business reason to know that information to provide products and services to you. We educate our employees about the importance of confidentiality and customer privacy. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to guard your nonpublic personal information.
