We collect information from you directly through our website, mobile apps, and our customer service channels. We may also collect information from third-party sources, such as credit bureaus, marketing partners, and data analytics providers, to verify your identity and prevent fraud.

We use the personal information we collect for a variety of purposes, all aimed at providing you with the best possible financial services and experiences. These purposes include:

Data Security
At 4NBG Financial, we prioritize the security of your personal information. We employ robust security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include, but are not limited to:
  • Encryption: We use industry-standard encryption technologies to protect sensitive data both in transit and at rest. This ensures that your information is scrambled and unreadable to unauthorized parties.
  • Access Controls: We implement strict access controls to limit access to your personal information to authorized personnel who require it to perform their job functions. These controls are based on the principle of least privilege, meaning that individuals only have access to the information they need to complete their assigned tasks.
  • Regular Security Audits: We conduct regular security audits to identify and address potential vulnerabilities in our systems and processes. These audits help us ensure that our security controls are effective and up-to-date.
  • Security Awareness Training: We provide security awareness training to all employees to educate them on best practices for protecting sensitive data. This training helps to mitigate the risk of human error and unintentional data breaches.
We are committed to continually evaluating and enhancing our security measures to adapt to evolving threats and technologies. We understand the importance of safeguarding your personal information and strive to provide you with a secure and reliable experience.
Retention and Disposal
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and protect our rights and interests. We have established data retention policies and procedures to ensure that personal information is not kept longer than necessary. For example, account information may be retained as long as an account is active or to comply with applicable laws.
We will securely dispose of or anonymize personal information when it is no longer needed, using appropriate methods to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure. Our disposal methods may include secure deletion, shredding, or degaussing.
We may retain some information in an anonymized form, meaning that it cannot be associated with a specific individual. Anonymized information may be used for statistical analysis, research, and other purposes that do not require individual identification.
