Changes to the Online Policy

• Limestone Bank reserves the right to change or amend this Online Policy at any time. Changes will be effective as of posting to the Site.

• We collect Personal Information and Aggregate Information from visitors to the Site. We use the term "Personal Information" to mean any information that can identify a specific individual. We use the term "Aggregate Information" to refer to any information that does not allow us to identify a specific individual, such as demographic information, areas visited on the Site or what browser was used to access the Site.

Personal Information

• We may collect various types of Personal Information from visitors to the Site, such as name, address, email address, phone number, Social Security Number, date of birth, driver's license, employment, income, residence, and collateral information.

Aggregate Information

• We collect Aggregate Customer Information for a variety of purposes, including using it to enhance your online customer experience. For example, collection of Aggregate Customer Information enables us to gather and store information such as domain and browser information. This information allows us to measure traffic on various sections of our Site, monitor performance, and respond to customer needs. We may share "Aggregate Customer Information" with selected third parties, such as tracking product promotions, but this information will never identify you individually as a customer or include your personal identifying information.

Notice Regarding the Use of Cookies or Similar Technologies

• Cookies or other similar technologies may be used to gather information. Cookies are electronic files that your Internet browser places on your hard drive to retain information relating to visits to and use of a website. Limestone Bank uses cookies to improve the functionality of our Site. We do not use cookies to store or transmit Personal Information. We use cookies to enable our customers to navigate more easily within our Site during an online session. We use "persistent" cookies to allow you to set and maintain your preferences for using our Site. Persistent cookies remain on your computer's memory after you close your Internet browser.

• We may also use 1x1 pixel "action tags," which are types of tracking technology associated with cookies. Action tags help us know how many visitors link to our Site from a third-party website, which areas of our Site visitors use most often, and how much time visitors spend at our Site. We provide this type of Aggregate Information to a nonaffiliated application service provider that compiles statistical information for us. Limestone Bank may collect this data to enhance our ability to meet the needs of online users and make improvements to the online experience.

• You can block cookies by changing the settings on your Internet browser or through the use of software programs specifically designed to block cookies. Please note, however, that if you choose to block cookies, you will not be able to log in to our secure Online Banking service, and you may limit other functionality we can provide when you visit our Site. You can also remove cookies by deleting them from your Temporary Internet or Cookies folder.

We may aggregate individual visitor or customer information for further analysis.

Notice Regarding Web Linking Practices

• Limestone Bank may provide access to information, products or services offered on websites that are owned or operated by other companies ("Third Party Websites"). We provide this access through the use of hyperlinks that automatically take you from Limestone Bank’s Site to the Third Party Website. While we do our best to provide you with helpful, trustworthy resources, we cannot endorse, approve or guarantee information, products, services or recommendations provided at any Third Party Website. Because we may not always know when information on a linked site changes, Limestone Bank is not responsible for the content or accuracy of any Third Party Website. Limestone Bank shall not be responsible for any loss or damage of any sort resulting from the use of a link on its Site, nor will it be liable for any failure of products or services advertised or provided on any Third Party Website. You should familiarize yourself with the privacy policy and security practices of Third Party Websites that you choose to visit. Those are the policies and practices that will apply to your use of the Third Party Website, not Limestone Bank’s policies and practices.
