Shoreline Credit Union collects information necessary to provide you with financial products and services, manage your accounts, and comply with legal obligations. This can include personal details like your name, address, Social Security number, and transaction history. We collect this data through applications, account forms, and your interactions with our services.
We only share your information under specific, limited circumstances, primarily when necessary to provide requested services, comply with legal mandates, or protect against fraud. For example, we may share data with service providers who assist us in processing transactions, but only under strict confidentiality agreements.
