Business Accounts Privacy
Our Privacy
What is unique about ING DIRECT's Privacy Policy?
ING DIRECT's privacy policy exceeds the standards required by congressional legislation. One requirement of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act of 1999, or GLB, requires financial institutions to provide Customers with the ability to "opt-out" of information sharing. ING DIRECT has adopted an "opt-in" privacy policy, which means that we will not share your data unless you explicitly request that we do so.
Privacy Policy
Like our products, our Privacy Policy is simple and straightforward: We respect your privacy, and we are committed to protecting it.
We protect the confidentiality and security of your personal and financial information by placing you, our Customer, in control of the process. We allow you to consent to information sharing before it occurs.
ING DIRECT is committed to these four Privacy Principles.
Principle 1. We limit how, and with whom, we share your information based on your choice. ING DIRECT will only share your personal and financial information with others (including other ING companies):
Principle 2. We collect only the information necessary to deliver the products and services you request. ING DIRECT collects only the personal and financial information about you necessary to serve your financial needs, to protect against fraud, and to fulfill legal and regulatory requirements. We collect the following:
ING DIRECT restricts access to your personal and financial information to our employees who need it to do their job. Employees with access to your information are required to strictly maintain the confidentiality of all Customer information.
ING DIRECT maintains physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with Federal standards to protect your personal and financial information. We routinely test our information systems and website to ensure that unauthorized access does not occur.
Principle 4. We maintain your privacy even after you cease to be our Customer.
If you decide to close your account or become an inactive Customer, ING DIRECT will continue to follow this privacy policy with respect to the information we have in our possession about you and your account(s). *** By using our web site, applying for or opening an account with us, you consent to the collection and use of information as set forth in this Privacy Policy. ING DIRECT commits to uphold this Privacy Policy. That's our pledge to you.
