Our
Privacy Policy
At Prudential California Realty, we recognize that you expect
privacy and security when it comes to information that personally
identifies you and allows you to be individually contacted
("Personal Information"). Prudential California
Realty has adopted the following online privacy policy because
we understand the need to safeguard the information you may
be providing to us at our web site.
Why we request information about you Prudential California
Realty offers a variety of programs and services to you from
personalized home searches to online mortgage applications.
We collect and retain information about you only when we believe
it will help us provide you with the
services and products that you desire.
Personalized Home Search Registration
When you sign up for our personalized home search, we may
use that information to occasionally notify you about important
functionality changes to our web site, new Prudential California
Realty products or services, and special offers we think you'll
find valuable.
Online Forms
When you request other information from us through our various
order forms, we need to know your name, e-mail address, mailing
address and telephone numbers so we can be sure to get in
touch with you when and how you ask us to. For instance, when
you apply for an online mortgage loan, we need to know your
name, social security number, e-mail address, mailing address,
income, debt and asset information. This information is necessary
to process your mortgage application and
to obtain your credit report. We will not obtain your credit
report without your authorization, but we cannot approve you
for a mortgage loan without it. We can, however, pre-qualify
you for a mortgage loan without your credit report.
How we protect your financial information
When you apply for an online mortgage loan, we offer the use
of a secure server. The secure socket layer software (SSL)
encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us.
Even though you may not see a padlock in the bottom of your
browser window, rest assured that all the information you
enter is encrypted before being sent to our order center.
The information we receive from you also is protected against
unauthorized access once we receive it. We limit access to
your information to employees who have a business reason for
accessing it. We also educate our
employees about the importance of your privacy through our
educational programs and company policies.
