At Eagle Bank we are concerned about the security
of your personal information. Just like you,
we want all your personal information kept
that way - personal and private. If you check
out our Privacy Policy, you'll see we do not
give out information about you to a third party
unless it is necessary to provide a service
or product you requested. We never give your
e-mail address to anyone. Your personal and
account information is secure and private.
When you give us information about yourself
over our Web site, we use it to verify who you
are, to keep your account with us secure, and
to complete your transaction requests. Your personal
information is private and we respect your privacy. To protect your personal information from exposure
to unauthorized persons, we use industry-encryption
methods to transmit your personal registration
information from your computer to ours across
the Internet, and we restrict access to any transactional
portions of our Web site to computers running
Web browsers that support Secure Socket Layer
("SSL") protocol. To use this protection
technology, you need to have an SSL-capable browser,
such as Netscape Navigator 4.5 or higher, Microsoft
Internet Explorer 4.5 or higher. These browsers
will automatically activate the technology when
you log on to our Web site. Our Web site was developed with a focus on security
mechanisms designed to address information security
issues. These mechanisms depend upon security
firewalls and intrusion detection systems. Firewalls provide the highest level of perimeter
security, only allowing traffic that is recognizable
as "safe". Unsafe traffic is dropped,
logged, and the appropriate personnel are notified.
An intrusion detection system provides sophisticated
real-time detection mechanisms, by monitoring
all inbound traffic. It instantly identifies,
logs and alerts administrators to unauthorized
use, misuse, and abuse of our systems by internal
saboteurs and external hackers. When suspicious
events are recognized, it is logged and the appropriate
personnel are notified immediately. Please remember that you play an important part
in security as well. Your password to access
Eagle OnSite, which you select at the time you
complete your registration and every 90 days
thereafter, should never be shared with anyone.
And after you finish using Eagle OnSite, you
should log off and exit your browser so no unauthorized
persons can use Eagle OnSite with your name and
account information. We also recommend you not
store secured pages in your cache or leave your
computer unattended while you are logged into
Eagle OnSite. Remember that any information you voluntarily
disclose on-line in any news or message postings,
discussion groups or chat rooms may be collected
and used by others without your permission. Furthermore,
if you provide any information to parties who
operate Web sites that are linked to or from
our site, different rules may apply to their
collection, use or disclosure of your personal
information. We encourage you to review the privacy
policies connected with these sites before revealing
any sensitive or personal information. Regardless of the precautions taken by you or
us, "perfect security" does not exist
on the Internet. We cannot (or anyone else currently)
ensure or warrant the security of any information
you transmit to us via the Internet. Links in
this website will allow you to leave the Eagle
Bank website. Eagle Bank is not responsible
