Internet Privacy Notice

Personal Information Collected

Our website does not collect personal identifying information about you except when specifically and knowingly provided by you. Once you have provided personal identifying information, it will be used for the purpose as described at the point of data collection. All such information will then be subject to the provisions of our Privacy Notice.

General Information Collected

For each visitor to our web pages, our web server automatically recognizes a user's software information, such as domain name (i.e. aol.com, msn.com), browser and operating system without identifying the user. We also aggregate information on these visits to our site that tells us such things as: how many visitors we had, what sites they came from, which of our pages they visited, how long they stayed at each site, and the total time of their visits.

The general information we collect is used to analyze and improve the content of our site. It is not shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

If you send us email, your return address will be displayed in the header we receive. We will use this information to respond to your inquiry and we will keep your message as a record of our contacts. We will not share that information with outside companies or agencies unless it is necessary for us to do so in order to respond to your email or carry out a request therein, or unless we are required to so by law or court order.

Cookie Technology

A cookie is a piece of data given to a browser by a web server. We set a cookie each time you log onto Harrington Online Banking. This cookie is merely an anonymous number that identifies the user's session. It does not store any personally-identifiable information. We only use cookie technology to strengthen banking security in the following way:

While you are connected to the Harrington Online Banking site, the cookie is constantly monitored to ensure that we are communicating with the machine that logged in. If this cookie connection is interrupted (as may occur if an intruder intercepts your information), Harrington Online Banking will cancel the connection. Although the cookie may remain on your hard drive after you have completed your session, the cookie expires and stops collecting information when you properly exit or time out of Harrington Online Banking. This prevents someone else from using the same computer to access your session. When you log onto Harrington Online Banking the next time, the old cookie will be replaced by a new cookie. At the end of any session, you may remove this cookie without affecting your future sessions.

Children's Online Privacy

Harrington Bank, FSB does not knowingly collect or solicit data from children under 13, and we do not knowingly market to children. We recognize that protecting children's identities and privacy online is important and that the responsibility to do so rests with both the online industry and parents.
Because we have no way of distinguishing the age of individuals who access our website, we collect the same general information we collect from any website user as well as personally-identifiable information from individuals under the age of 13 if they provide it. If such information is received via email, we will respond to the communication as warranted but only retain the information in accordance with our general information collection policy. If an individual under the age of 18 provides us with personally-identifiable information through an internet account application, the application will be declined and all related information would only be maintained as required or allowed by law.

Links On Our Website to Third Party Websites

We are not responsible for the content or the privacy policies of websites to which we may provide links. We do not endorse, certify, or validate the content of any third party website. These links are provided for informational use only and users of our website are cautioned to use appropriate judgment when following a link to any third party website.

We reserve the right to introduce new services or practices that may require a change to the provisions of this notice. We are committed to updating our Internet Privacy Notice promptly to keep you informed on how we use information you give us.
