Cookies, web beacons and other technologies

We sometimes collect anonymous information from visits to our sites to help us provide better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on Genesis Bank & Statutory Trust websites, but we do so in ways that keep the information anonymous. This anonymous information is sometimes known as clickstream data. Genesis Bank & Statutory Trust and websites or its analytic vendors may use this data to analyze trends and statistics to help us provide better customer service.

Also, when we collect personal data from you in connection with a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in an anonymous format and combine it with other anonymous information such as clickstream data. This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. None of this information is reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner, you can either disable your cookies or opt out at the order or request page.

We collect the anonymous information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use of various technologies, including one-called cookies. A cookie is an element of data that a website can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your system. Some Commercial Bank pages use cookies, sent by Commercial Bank or its third-party vendors, or other technologies to better serve you when you return to the site. You can set your browser to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it. You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some areas of some sites may not function properly.

Some Genesis Bank & Statutory Trust websites also use web beacon technologies to better tailor those sites to provide better customer service. These web beacons are placed on a number of pages across Commercial Bank Web sites. When a visitor accesses these pages, an anonymous notice of that visit is generated which may be processed by us or by our vendors. These Web beacons work in conjunction with cookies. If you do not want to associate your anonymous cookie information with your visits to these pages, you can set your browser to turn off cookies.

If you turn off cookies, web beacon technologies will still detect anonymous visits to these pages, but the notices they generate cannot be associated with another anonymous cookie information and are disregarded.
