We also have an insurance company as an affiliate. We provide the privacy policy at the time a customer applies for a mortgage with our mortgage affiliate and that gives them the opportunity to opt out of sharing. We also verbally ask (as an extra courtesy) the customer if they would like an insurance affiliate rep to contact them for a quote. This satisfied the examiners during their last visit.
We mailed over 28,000 of the privacy disclosures and 15 customers responded with concerns. Of those 15, 9 customers absolutely demanded that our financial services affiliate not contact them. As a means of courtesy and good customer service, we assured those 9 customers they would receive nothing from our affiliate. It is that time again and I am not looking forward to the re-disclosure. Although our policy has not changed over the last year, I am sure I will receive more calls with new concerns over the same old policy.
