Privacy of Your Personal Information
In the course of providing you with products and services, The Tennessee Credit Union acquires information from you in person, online, during telephone interviews, on applications and other forms you complete, and from outside sources including consumer reporting agencies. We also maintain information about your transactions with us.

Sharing within the The Tennessee Credit Union Family
The Tennessee Credit Union works together with its subsidiary, CUCORP, Inc., to offer a wide range of financial products and services. We obtain information about the financial products and services you maintain with CUCORP, Inc., to serve you more efficiently and make it easier for you to conduct business with us. Likewise, we may share information about your accounts with CUCORP, Inc., to make conducting business within the The Tennessee Credit Union family easy and convenient for you.

We do not share any personal information about you or former members with third parties except as permitted or required by law, and as necessary for business purposes.

We may also share information with companies that work for us in providing you products and services. Such companies include check printers and data processors.

The Tennessee Credit Union family seeks to meet the financial needs of all members. Accordingly, we may enter into agreements with other financial institutions to offer members high-quality financial products and services at reduced prices or to provide marketing services on our behalf. We may also enter into an agreement with a company that provides mail services to notify you of credit union products and services or other special promotions.

Your Responsibility to Prevent Unauthorized Access to Your Accounts
The Tennessee Credit Union is confident that we have taken the necessary security steps to ensure that our online services are secure. However, it is also your responsibility to help protect the security of your account by safeguarding your password.

You are the key to safeguarding the confidentiality of your accounts. You are issued a temporary password when you apply for Express Call or Smart Branch access. You should change this password the first time you call in or log on to these services. You should select a password that you can easily remember, but that no one else would likely guess. For example, do not select your address, telephone number, or date of birth for your password. You can change your password as frequently as you desire, by selecting the “Change Password “ option in Smart Branch or the “PIN“ transaction code in Express Call. Never share your password with anyone – even family members - if they are not on your account. If you are the only one who knows your password, you have protected your accounts against unauthorized access. No representative of The Tennessee Credit Union will ever call and ask you for your passwords.

Change your password on a regular basis. Always change it immediately if you think that your password have been compromised, and contact the Credit Union immediately. Take care to not walk away from your computer in the middle of an online session with Smart Branch. Anyone can sit down at your computer and have immediate access to your account. Always log off when you finish your session.
