Sharing Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information to a third party, our affiliates or agent, or service providers for a business purpose as described above.  When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we enter a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except for fulfilling requirements and services being performed under contract.

 

Your Rights

The CCPA provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes those rights.

 

Requests to Access Your Personal Information (Right to Know)

California consumers have the right to request that we disclose certain information to them about our collection, use, and disclosure of their personal information over the past 12 months.

 

As part of our verification process of your request we ensure reasonable measures are in place to detect fraudulent requests and prevent unauthorized access to your personal information. We are required to verify your identity, and the identity of your authorized agent, if the request is submitted via an agent by associating the information provided in the request to any personal information previously collected by us.

 

Once we confirm your verifiable request we will disclose to you, consistent with your request:

  • The categories of personal information we collected about you.
  • The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
  • Our business purpose for collecting that personal information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
  • Specific pieces of personal information we collected about you, if requested.

 

Requests to Delete Your Personal Information (Right to Request Deletion)

California consumers have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we have collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

 

If we deny your deletion request, we will notify you in writing of the reason.

 

Right to Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.

 

Submitting Requests to Know or Delete

To exercise the rights described above, you may either:

  • Call us Toll-Free at (800) 634-6486
  • Submit your request online
 

Only you or your authorized agent may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information.  If you use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf, we may require that you (1) provide the authorized agent written permission to do so and (2) provide a copy of the authorization or provide a copy of a power of attorney that complies with California Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465 so that we can verify the identity of the authorized agent.

 

In verifying requests, we employ reasonable measures to detect fraudulent requests and prevent unauthorized access to your personal information. To meet our obligations, we are required to verify your identity, and the identity of your authorized agent, if the request is submitted via an agent, by associating the information provided in your request to personal information previously collected by us. If we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity, we may decline a request or request that you provide further verifying information.

 

You may only make a verifiable consumer request twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information and, if applicable, provide necessary documentation about your authorized agent.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
 

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify your identity or authority to make the request.

 

Flagstar may not be obligated to provide access to or delete the personal information we have collected about you if your request conflicts with federal or state law or other lawful obligations by which we are bound, or is subject to an exemption in the CCPA.

 

Responding to Requests

Upon receiving your request to know or a request to delete, we will process your request or notify you if the request requires an extension or will be denied. If we only comply with your request in part, we will explain the reasons why. We attempt to process requests within 45 days after receipt. If we require additional time beyond 45 days, we will inform you of the reason and the extension period.

 

If you have an account with us, we may deliver our response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our response by mail or electronically.

 

Generally, we do not charge a fee to process or respond to your requests. However, if we determine that a request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

 

“Shine the Light Law”

 

If you are a California resident, you may have the right to request and receive certain information about disclosure of your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes, and your choices with respect to such disclosures. Because it is our policy not to share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties for their own direct marketing purposes, we are exempt from having to meet this requirement. If you still wish to learn more about our compliance with this requirement, please contact us using the information provided in the “Contact Us” section below.

 

Changes to this Privacy Notice and Policy

We reserve the right to amend this privacy notice and policy at our discretion and at any time. When we make changes to this Privacy Notice and Policy, we will notify you through a notice on our website homepage.

 

Contact Us

If you have any questions or comments about this Privacy Notice & Policy the ways in which we collect and use your personal information, your choices and rights regarding such use, or wish to exercise your rights under California law, or need this disclosure in another format, please contact us at privacy@flagstar.com.
