YOUR CHOICES REGARDING YOUR INFORMATION

You have several choices regarding use of information on the Services.

(a) How We Respond to “Do Not Track” Signals. Some web browsers transmit “do not track” signals to the websites and other online services with which your web browser communicates. There is currently no standard that governs what, if anything, websites should do when they receive these signals. Capitol Bank currently does not take action in response to these signals. If and when a standard is established, Capitol Bank may revise its policy on responding to these signals.

(b) Access, Update, or Correct Your Information. You can access, update or correct your information by changing preferences in your account. To take any of these actions, or for any additional requests, you should contact Capitol Bank.

(d) Opting Out of Location Tracking. If you initially consented to the collection of geo-location information through the Services, you can subsequently stop the collection of this information at any time by changing the preferences on your mobile device.

SAFEGUARDS AND RETENTION

Capitol Bank implements reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures in an effort to safeguard the information in our custody and control against theft, loss, and unauthorized access, use, modification and disclosure.

Federal laws and regulations require that U.S. financial institutions retain original, active, and historical records. Your personal and financial data will be retained for a period of five to ten years, depending on applicable laws, regulations, and legitimate business needs.
