FCSLA Privacy Policy

In compliance with federal law and regulation, we are required to provide each member with information regarding the practices we have in place to protect the privacy of our members. We recognize that the protection of the privacy of our members is of the utmost importance.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT
In the process of becoming our member you (or someone representing you) provided the First Catholic Slovak Ladies Association with certain nonpublic personal information, such as your name, age, residence, marital status and social security number. If you have applied for life insurance, you may also have provided us with employment and medical information and may have authorized us to obtain further information concerning your health history. With your authorization, we have collected only the minimum amount of information necessary to underwrite your application.

INFORMATION SECURITY
We maintain the highest levels of confidentiality concerning your nonpublic personal information. Our employees have been trained in the careful handling and protection of such information. They understand that improper disclosure of nonpublic personal information is a serious matter with severe consequences. If we should find it necessary to retain another organization to assist us with our operations, we will require that it maintain the same strict standards of confidentiality as we do. In addition, we maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect the nonpublic financial information of our members.

INFORMATION WE DISCLOSE
We are a fraternal benefit society that has always been committed to protecting the privacy of its members. There are no affiliated financial institutions or third party non-affiliates which have access to your nonpublic personal information, except pursuant to your authorization. We never sell lists of the names and addresses of our members to any vendor of goods or services. Of course, we must comply if we are required to disclose information in connection with civil or criminal litigation. Those instances are rare.

Our policy of protecting the security of nonpublic personal information also extends to former insureds who no longer have coverage with us. Please be assured that the information in our insurance and annuity files will always be available to our members for modification, correction or change when a written request is submitted. Our policy is not to disclose financial information over the phone.

Please contact us if you have any questions.
