PRIVACY POLICY
We value our customers and are committed to protecting the privacy of personal information. In keeping with that philosophy, First Hawaii has adopted this Privacy Policy to ensure the continued protection of customers’ non-public personal information and inform the public about the measures First Hawaii takes to safeguard that information.
Who is Covered?
Any person who provides First Hawaii information through our website or any application portal is covered by this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy only applies to information collected through First Hawaii’s website or application portals and not to information collected offline. This Privacy Policy applies even if you are no longer a First Hawaii customer.
What We Collect
As part of the normal course of business serving our customers, we may obtain non-public personal information directly from customers and may use this information to collect additional information from customer-related transactions, or from third parties such as lenders, appraisers, surveyors or other similar entities.
We Use Cookies
If your web browser allows it, we use Cookies (small local files) to recognize your browser and retain certain browsing and preference information.
Who Can Access Personal Information?
We use our best efforts to ensure that no unauthorized parties have access to personal information. We only provide access to personal information for those employees who need to know that information to provide products or services to you. We use our best efforts to train and supervise our employees and agents to ensure that your information is handled responsibly and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We maintain federally-compliant safeguards to protect your non-public personal information.
How Do We Use Your Information?
First Hawaii will use your information to process the transaction, product, or service that you have requested. We may use your information for other purposes as permitted by law, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, site improvement, and other communications with you. We may also use your contact information (including email) to provide periodic updates about your order, along with periodic company news, updates, product, or service information.
We Do Not Sell Customer Information
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your non-public personal information. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting and marketing our business, or providing services to customers, as long as those third parties agree to keep customer information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce site policies, or protect the rights, property, or safety of others.
