Missouri Financial Institution Data Match Program
Web Site Privacy Policy
Online Privacy Policy
The Missouri Financial Institution Data Match Program
provides the online convenience of submitting quarterly data match files and
downloading the State's file of delinquent obligors. Our Online Privacy Policy
serves as our guide for collecting, storing and using information that can or
potentially could identify an individual user of the Missouri Financial
Institution Data Match Program Web site. Such information is commonly referred
to as "Personal Information".
What information do we collect?
We collect, monitor and store the following
information, which is commonly referred to as "Traffic Pattern
Information":
- The IP address for the user. This could be
resolved to a domain name that has accessed our Web site (for example, if you
subscribe to America Online, we would know that someone from AOL has accessed
our site, but we would not know which of the millions of AOL users actually
accessed our Web site);
- The date and time our Web site has been accessed; and
- The number of visits we have to our Web site.
We may collect, monitor and store your name,
e-mail address, postal address, phone number and other domain-related information.
You will always know when we are collecting this information, and disclosure
is always voluntary.
We also try to make it easy for you to reach us
by e-mail for further information. If you decide to e-mail us, it is important
for you to know that it is likely that you will intentionally, or perhaps
inadvertently, send Personal Information.
Registration and Online Reporting
Registration: Financial institutions wishing to
utilize our Web site's online reporting feature are
required to register to use the service. Information required to register
includes the following:
Financial Institution Name; Federal Employer Identification
Number (FEIN); Mailing Address; and Contact Information (Name, Phone Number,
Fax Number, Email Address).
All
information is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). For more information
on SSL, please read the section on security.
Web File-Transfer Feature
This Web site provides registered users the
option of securely sending their electronic quarterly data match files via an
encrypted Web-interface. Encryption uses SSL protocols described in detail in
the section on security.
How do we use the Personal Information
we collect?
We do not trade, sell, rent, lease, or otherwise
share financial institution information with outside parties.
We will collect employer names, e-mail
addresses, postal addresses, phone numbers, fax numbers and domain-related
information.
We never use traffic pattern information to
personally identify individual users. Traffic pattern information is taken and
used only to generate generic statistics. These statistics are used to identify
general trends concerning the use of our Web site, tell us which of our Web
pages are the most popular, and to help us determine how we may improve our
site.
If you identify yourself or provide personal
information by submitting a comment or sending us an e-mail message, we use
this information to respond to your comments, concerns, suggestions, questions
or requests for information.
What about "Cookies"?
Our site does not use "Cookies".
Will the Missouri Financial Institution Data
Match Program disclose the information it collects to outside parties?
No. The Missouri Financial Institution Data Match Program does not
trade, sell, rent, lease, or otherwise share personal information with
outside parties, unless authorized by RSMo 454.507.
The Missouri Financial Institution Data Match
Program may provide generic statistics about our traffic patterns and related
site information to the State of Missouri Department of Social Services,
Family Support Division,
but these statistics will never include Personal Information.
Links
The Missouri Financial Institution Data
Match Program Web site has links on some of its Web pages that will link
users to third party Web sites. The Missouri Financial Institution Data Match
Program is not responsible for the privacy or other policies of any third party
Web sites with which it has links, or of the links offered on such third
party Web sites. Please refer to the operators of such third party Web sites for
information on their individual privacy policies.
Security
Access to certain areas of our Web site
is password protected. When you access your account information in a password
protected area, you will be using
a secure server via Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL is a protocol developed by
Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL works by
using a private key to encrypt data that's transferred over the SSL connection.
In other words, SSL encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us.
Both Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer support SSL. Web sites use SSL to
transmit confidential user information over the Internet. SSL is widely
accepted as being very secure.
Any files transmitted via this Web site are encrypted using the
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. This makes it virtually impossible for an
unauthorized user to intercept and use the file for illicit purposes. For a
complete explanation of SSL, click here and you will be
linked to a website operated by Java Sun.com.
Email Policy
Our Program will occasionally send e-mails to financial
institutions, which may contain information relating to news bulletins, reporting
reminders, and other topics directly related to financial institution data
match or child support enforcement. Your e-mail address is never provided to
any other entity outside of financial institution data match and child support
enforcement.
If you wish to not receive any e-mails, please
contact our program. Please be sure
to include your Financial Institution Name, Federal Employer Identification
Number, Contact Name and Phone Number. We will take measures to prevent sending
any future e-mails to your address.

Institution Data Match Program Internet Privacy Policy
The Missouri Financial Institution Data
Match Program may, at its
discretion, review and, if appropriate, revise this Online Privacy Policy and
our Web operations. If we ever do revise our Online Privacy Policy, revisions
will be posted prior to becoming effective.
