MAIN STREET CHECKS, INC. STATEMENT OF POLICY REGARDING THE PRIVACY OF
CONSUMER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In order to provide financial institutions with quality checks to be used in connection with business, personal, family or household checking accounts, we collect personal information about account holders from the financial institutions that comprise our customer base. This information includes, without limitation, the account holder’s name, address, telephone number, social security number, driver’s license number, financial institution account number and any other nonpublic personal information provided by the financial institution. We use this account holder information to produce checks by which funds may be efficiently drawn on the account holder’s account with the financial institution and to generate other reports and services requested by the financial institutions.

We understand the importance of safeguarding this personal information and are committed to protecting and preserving its confidentiality and security. We will not disclose the personal information of any customer or account holder unless we are legally required or permitted to do so. Examples of permissible disclosures include, but are not limited to:

disclosures authorized or requested by the financial institution or account holder;
disclosures required to facilitate a genuine business transaction with an outside party equally committed to maintaining the privacy of the account holder’s personal information;
disclosures in compliance with Federal, State or local laws, rules, and other applicable legal requirements;
disclosures in response to a properly authorized civil, criminal or regulatory investigation, or subpoena or summons by Federal, State or local authorities: or
any potential disclosures whereby the account holder failed to decline or opt out of the disclosure after being given a reasonable opportunity to do so.

We maintain physical and electronic procedures in compliance with federal regulations to ensure the highest level of security against unauthorized disclosure of our customers’ or their account holders’ nonpublic personal information. Access to an account holder’s personal information is restricted to those employees or contractors who need to know that information in order to provide quality financial products to our customers and their account holders. We continually emphasize to all of our employees and contractors the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of account holder records.
