On the Client Portal, users will provide us their UserID and Password to gain access. This information is used to securely identify the user to gain access to privileged debtor information.
On the "Become a Client" form, users may provide contact information (such as name, address,
email address, phone number, etc.). This information is used to allow us to make contact with user to arrange for a consultation.
Log

data to third parties only when: the user requests/requires it, the disclosure
is required by law, or it is necessary to process transactions
and provide our services to the client.
Links to Other Web Sites
This web site may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we
at ProCor are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.
We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read
the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally
identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this Web site.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect the users' information.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, this information
is protected both online and off-line. We caution users to only send
confidential information by using the encrypted forms provided on this site,
by phone or by postal mail only. E-MAIL IS NOT CONSIDERED A SECURE WAY
TO SEND INFORMATION OVER THE INTERNET. When our online forms
asks users to enter sensitive, personally identifiable information, that information
is encrypted (128 bit key) and is protected with the best encryption software in the
industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our Client Portal,
the lock icon on the bottom of web browser such as Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to unlocked,
or open, when the user is just 'surfing.'
While we use SSL
encryption to protect sensitive information online, we have established
security measures in place to protect user information off-line. All
of the user information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above,
is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information
to perform a specific job (for example, our associates, account managers
or customer service representatives, auditors) are granted access to
personally identifiable information.
Our offices have
secured access to the buildings and equipment. Computers and computer
terminals are password protected. Employees gain access to their computers
and terminals by logging onto the system. Our employees must log off
the system when they leave their computers.
All employees are
kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Any time new
policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about
the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers' information is protected.
Finally, the servers
and any backup data where we store personally identifiable information
on are kept in a secure environment.
Correction/Updating
Personal information
A user's personally identifiable information (such as address, phone
number, zip code) can be updated or corrected
by phone, fax or postal mail.
Enforcement
ProCor periodically reviews and audits processes and operations to ensure
compliance with all laws pertaining to confidential use of information
and collection practices. These reviews are related to consumer privacy,
governmental regulations and are conducted by internal staff and auditors.
Notification

We reserve the right to change this policy at any time by posting any
changes at this location (URL) so our users are always aware of what
information we collect, how we use it, and under certain circumstances, if any,
how we disclose it.
