Because this site wants to demonstrate its commitment to your privacy, it has agreed to disclose its information practices and have its privacy practices reviewed and audited for compliance by VeriSign.

We believe that consumers have a keen interest in privacy. We also believe that by disclosing a Web site's data policy, organizations can proactively address this concern and gain consumer confidence. Consumer confidence is of critical importance, particularly as it relates to Internet commerce. With this in mind, Queens Financial Mortgage Center has become a member of VeriSign and discloses its site privacy practices.

Queens Financial Mortgage Center, an Internet arm of Nationwide Mortgage Bankers and the Mortgage Joy Family of Companies may capture implicit information from users who visit our Web site for aggregate statistical analysis and site customization. Implicit information is data that we can gather about the user without asking them. Importantly, aggregate statistical analysis means that Queens Financial Mortgage Center reviews trends based on information as a whole, but does not do so in an effort to identify the individual identity of the visitor.

We also may solicit E-mail for site feedback, business development, press inquiries, and Human Resources inquiries. In select instances, this information may be shared with reputable third-party companies. However, Queens Financial Mortgage Center does not willfully disclose Human Resource information solicited from our Web site to third parties.

IP addresses may be logged to track a user's session. An IP address is the unique numerical identity of your computer. When we "log" an IP address, it means that our Web site associates a visit or series of visits to that unique numerical identity. Queens Financial Mortgage Center also uses cookies in order to assist in aggregate statistical analysis and sometimes provide site customization based on anonymous session tracking. In other words, Queens Financial Mortgage Center uses cookies to determine trends for users as a whole, but not as means to learn about your individual identity. Cookies, by themselves, cannot be used to determine the actual identity of users. On their own, they can be used to identify a computer, but not who is using that computer. Because of this, if Queens Financial Mortgage Center customizes the site based on cookies, we won't know who you are unless you tell us.
