Online privacy, security and information gathering policy
Last updated: March 1, 2022
CIBC U.S. is committed to safeguarding your confidential information and maintaining the security of our online products and services. In addition to this statement, please review CIBC Bank USA's full Privacy Notice. It addresses our general policies for collecting and sharing customer information.
Security
We maintain appropriate physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the security, integrity and privacy of your personal information. Information you submit through the CIBC U.S. website is encrypted to industry standards. No confidential or personal information should be sent through regular email since those email transmissions may not be secure.
We continually review our security safeguards in order to protect customer information we gather, transmit and store in connection with our online products and services. Remember to educate yourself on scams and threats and keep your computer operating system and data security software up to date. We'll never ask for personal identifying information, login or password information in an email message. Also, never select an unverified link in an email message. To learn more about protecting yourself, review fraud prevention. Also, to protect yourself against online fraud, review and download Trusteer Rapport. Trusteer Rapport is a free online banking security software.
Information gathering
We obtain information about our clients and website users online when you provide your information to us directly to complete online forms or obtain online services or indirectly as part of the information we collect on our websites. One example of information we collect indirectly is information collected through our internet access logs. When you access our website, your internet address is automatically collected and is placed in our internet access logs. We may also record the URLs of the websites and pages you visit before, during and after your visit to our website, the times and dates of these visits, information about the computer hardware and software you use, and other information that may be available.
We may collect information directly from you in a number of ways, including through the use of cookies. Cookies are small files of information which save and retrieve information about your visit to the website. This includes how you entered our website, how you navigated through the website and what information you viewed. The cookies we use identify you merely as a number. We use cookies to record information on customers’ visits and use of our websites in order to administer and improve our websites. We don't use cookies to store or transmit any personally identifiable information.
Temporary “session” cookies are also used to facilitate customer navigation within our website. Session cookies are deleted once you close your internet browser. We may also use “persistent” cookies that are retained on your computer after your visit ends so we can identity your preferences and enhance your next visit to our website.
In addition, cookies help us manage and monitor internet traffic from third-party websites to ours and identify which areas of our website are used most often and for how long. We may provide this type of aggregate information to non-affiliated application service providers that compile statistical or other information for us. This feedback and analysis lets us continually update our website.
We also collect information directly when you voluntarily submit it to us and offer you the opportunity to sign up for electronic services or notifications. In addition to our cookies, we may use cookies from advertising partners, transparent GIFs or web beacons to help us gather information about the effectiveness of our advertising. We don't gather personally identifiable information from this use and it doesn't affect how we protect your information.
You can block cookies by changing the settings on your internet browser or by using software programs specifically designed to block cookies. You should be aware that blocking cookies or using certain security software settings may prevent you from logging onto your accounts or limit your online activities. If you use “do not track” signals while visiting our website, we won't collect information about your visit, nor will any third-party included on our site.
The mobile application requests access to information stored on your device such as location, camera, contacts, or other features you are enrolled in to enrich and simplify your own user experience and improve our services, as well as provide additional security to protect your account. It is important for you to understand that: Before granting access to this information, you will be prompted to give the application that permission. If you do not wish to grant that permission, you may decline. If you later change your mind, those permissions can be updated in your device's settings. Some examples of information your mobile app will request access to are: Location used to provide you directions to our bank branch and ATM locations when using our app, contacts used for peer to peer transfers when using our app, and camera used for Remote Deposit Capture when using our app.
