Online Services Use of Cookies and other Tracking Technologies

When you browse our site or view one of our emails, or advertisements, U.S. Mortgage Funding and companies we work with, use cookies, Flash objects, web beacons and/or pixel tags to collect device information and store your online preferences, but they do not capture any information that can be used to personally identify you. The information they gather helps us improve your online experience and may include your response to one of our emails or advertisements, time and duration of your visit to our site and pages you viewed while on our site.

Device Tracking

We may use similar technologies, particularly in mobile advertising, that use device information to help deliver our advertisements and measure advertising campaign effectiveness. We and companies we work with may collect your device information when you visit one of our sites or see our ads. Compiling and comparing these attributes can create a unique ID for individual devices and can be "matched" to the same attributes appearing on other sites or mobile applications. Some companies we work with are also able to associate related devices into households based on common characteristics, such as IP addresses.

Targeted Advertising

Like most advertisers, we place advertisements where we think they will be most relevant to customers. We place advertisements by developing and using our own marketing segments that may combine online and offline information about our current and prospective customers. We work with advertising companies to place and track our ads on third party websites. Advertising companies that provide these services have their own privacy policies and are not subject to our Online Privacy Statement. The services they provide include, but are not limited to, communications (e.g., email), marketing, data processing, customer acquisition and servicing and advertisement management. When we use other companies to provide services for us, we require them to protect the confidentiality of information they receive.

Choice/Opt-Out- You Control Your Information That's Collected and Used Online

It's important to note that the information we use about you helps us provide you with products, services and experiences that benefit you. As explained in this Online Privacy Statement, you have choices about how your information is collected and used online.

E-Mail

When you provide your email address, we will use it to send you general notices or important information about your application or loan, request your feedback or opinions, and provide marketing updates and offers that might interest you relating to mortgage financing.

We believe you should be able to choose what kinds of information you receive via email. If you do not want to receive marketing materials by email, just indicate your preference on the contact information for your account or the 'opt-out' link provided in our marketing emails. Please keep in mind that we will continue to notify you by email regarding your loan account and for other transactional purposes.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies, pixels, tags or web beacons to help us provide users with a better service and a more customized web experience. These technologies are also used to collect general usage and volume statistical information that does not include personal information.

We may partner with another company to use tracking services, analytics and other technologies to monitor visits to embracehomeloans.com. The non-personally identifiable information we collect is used to compile aggregate statistics for us about visitors to our site. You can control whether to accept cookies or not. If you decide to not accept cookies, some features and services on our site may not work properly because we may not be able to recognize and associate you with your U.S. Mortgage Funding account(s). In addition, the offers we provide when you visit us may not be as relevant to you or tailored to your interests.

If you would prefer not to accept cookies, you can change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a cookie, which lets you choose whether or not to accept it or set your browser to automatically not accept any cookies.

Deleting cookies does not delete other tracking technologies like, Flash objects. If you choose to delete these other technologies from our site, then you may not be able to access and use all or part of the site or benefit from the information and services offered.

Web Beacons

Our webpages contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called single-pixel gifs) and are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how our site is used and may be used in some of our emails to let us know which emails and links have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our customer communications and marketing campaigns.

We use a third party to gather information about how you and others use our website. For example, we will know how many users access a specific page and which links they clicked on. We use this aggregated information to understand and optimize how our site is used.

Targeted Advertising

We believe that online behavioral advertising helps to provide you with more relevant advertising based upon on the websites you visit. As such, we may use cookies to track your visits to other, related websites in order for us to better tailor our marketing to your specific needs.

If you prefer to not receive targeted advertising, you can opt out of some network advertising programs that use your information. To do so please visit the NAI Opt-Out Page. Please note that even if you choose to remove your information (opt out), you will still see advertisements while you're browsing online. However the advertisements you see may be less relevant to you and your interests.

Additionally, many network advertising programs allow you to view and manage the interest categories they have compiled from your online browsing activities. These interest categories help determine the types of targeted advertisements you may receive. Although we believe that each of the sites to which we target our ads or from which we collect data should post a privacy statement that fully describes the advertising and data collection activities on its site, we cannot guarantee that all of those sites post such a statement. The NAI Opt-Out Page provides a tool that identifies its member companies that have cookies on your browser and provides links to those companies.

The Digital Advertising Alliance's Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising govern certain online advertising and data collection practices. The principles facilitate transparency about online advertising practices and support consumer choice in managing behavioral advertising. We subscribe to these Principles. For more information about the Principles and the Ad Choices icon visit http://www.youradchoices.com/

Because mobile devices may vary in how they operate and may not use cookies, the choice management options listed above may not work for all mobile devices and mobile apps. Mobile ad management providers make available tools for managing your choices regarding behavioral advertising on mobile devices and mobile apps. Depending upon the advertising company, if you opt out on one device they may also opt you out on any screen considered part of the same household.

Do Not Track

There is no generally-accepted standard for how Do Not Track consumer browser settings should work on commercial websites. Therefore, our websites do not respond to Do Not Track consumer browser settings. For more information regarding the choices you do have in seeing online behavioral ads, see the "About Ads" or NAI links provided above. Many of U.S. Mortgage Funding 's advertising vendors and companies participate in these programs. Using the choice mechanisms these programs make available may help you see advertising that is relevant to you or help you avoid seeing interest based advertising generally.

You may be using an Internet browser that has the ability to communicate your privacy preferences to the website, including requests not to track your usage and browsing history. Currently, the U.S. Mortgage Funding websites do not respond to any of these signals. U.S. Mortgage Funding may track your activity on these websites and use that information as provided in this policy.

Links to Other Websites

Our Site includes links to other websites whose privacy practices may differ from those of U.S. Mortgage Funding. If you submit personal information to any of those sites, your information is governed by their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.

We enable you to create a profile, and share information such as messages, photos, and videos with others. Please note that we cannot control the actions of others with whom you may choose to share your pages and information.
