you as a customer for as long as you have mortgage lending needs. We understand
that protecting your privacy is important. It is our obligation to keep
all information about you secure and confidential. That is why we have
established a Privacy Policy that protects the security of any public

we have outlined our security practices with regard to protecting all
of your personal information.
We, our and us mean DrSylviaWilliams.com, and You and Your mean the
following individuals: Those consumers who have provided us with non-public
personal information for the purpose of determining they qualify for a
mortgage loan; and those customers who have obtained real estate settlement
services from us. Non-public personal information means personally identifiable
financial information about you that we collect in connection with providing
a financial product or service to you. This does not include information
that is available from public sources, such as government real estate
records. Affiliate means a company we own or control, a company that owns
or controls us or a company that is owned or controlled by the same company
as us. Non-affiliated third party means a company that is not an affiliate
of ours. We collect non-public personal information about you from the
following sources: Information that we receive from you on applications
or other forms; information about your transactions with us, our affiliates
or others; and information we receive from a consumer reporting agency.
Information
We Collect and Disclose
We collect, retain and use only the personal information that is absolutely
necessary to process your mortgage loan. We may disclose personal information
about you to a carefully selected group of service providers and third
parties that assist us in the mortgage loan process. These parties include,
but are not limited to, licensed credit reporting agencies, federal and
state regulators, and payment coupon booklet vendors. We may also partner
with and disclose information to unaffiliated third parties who offer
ancillary products and services that we think may be of value to you.
Before we disclose your information to them, we require these partners
to adhere to strict standards regarding the security and confidentiality
of customer information. These business partners include, for example,
optional life insurance products. After approved DrSylviaWilliams.com
Members receive your information, they may contact you directly via phone,
e-mail or other communications. All of our Members operate under federal
and/or state laws and regulations and believe, as we do, that the Internet
is an exciting and secure place to do business. As our Members may keep
and use your information whether or not you qualify for a transaction
with them, we recommend that you contact them directly for more information
about their specific privacy policies. We will not disclose your income
or credit information or your social security number. Finally, we may
disclose information about you as required by law. Specifically, we collect
and disclose: information we receive from you on your loan application
or other forms, such as your name, address and social security number;
information about your past mortgage history with us or other lenders
(such as your loan balance and payment history); and information we receive
from a credit reporting agency, such as your creditworthiness and credit
history. While we collect information about your income and assets, we
only disclose this data to third parties who must have it for the loan
decision-making process, such as investors (like Fannie Mae) and mortgage
insurance companies.
Why
You Can Feel Secure
We do not disclose any personal information about our former customers
to anyone, except as permitted or required by law. Keeping your financial
information secure is one of our most important responsibilities. We will
permit access to personal information about you only to those employees
of DrSylviaWilliams.com who need to know that information in order
to process and service your mortgage loan. These employees are committed
to keeping your personal information safe and secure. We strive to maintain
the accuracy of your information and will respond in a timely manner if
you notify us that your information is not correct. We have implemented
administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect your information.
These include setting policies and procedures for carefully handling customer
data.
