Data protection
Mortgage Equity Partners has extensive policies and procedures to deal with the protection and prevention of misuse of non-public (private) information. We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline. Wherever we collect and process sensitive information, that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure manner. While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment and we have safeguards in place that establish protocols for passwords, employee access levels, and data storage.
Additionally, some of our website pages may contain links to third-party sites. While our contractual relationships provide equally for data safeguards, our privacy policy does not extend to these linked sites nor can we endorse the privacy practices of these third-party sites. In these instances, we advise visitors to these sites to conduct their own independent review of that third-party privacy protocol.
Although we strive to maintain extensive safeguards, policies, and procedures, data transmission over the Internet is not without risk and we cannot warrant or represent the security of the information that is transmitted to us and ultimately visitors do so at their own risk.
