Information we Collect on our Site
You can visit all public areas of our site without providing any personal information about yourself. Our web site collects only non-personal information based on a visitor’s Internet Protocol (IP) address (this is not personally identifiable). Information collected includes the date and time of visit, the type of Internet Browser used to access the site, the referring address (the link a visitor uses to access the site). This data is used to create statistics on site usage and improve online services.

Web Banking
Our web banking system uses a technique called a ‘cookie’ to maintain a connection with you. A cookie is a small amount of information, stored on your PC in an encrypted form that is sent to and from our web banking server.

The cookie provides us with information that enables us to ensure that each request for information really came from you and we deliver the information only to you. The cookie also lets us know when to time-out your connection if no instructions or activity has occurred for two minutes.

Links to Other Web Sites
Our web site contains links to other web sites that are part of, affiliated with, or have
a business relationship with EDCU. When you leave our site to visit one of these other sites, the only information transferred to the new site is the fact that you came from EDCU’s web site (the referring address). Transmission of this referring address allows other sites to monitor their own web traffic, but does not disclose any personal information about you.
