Advertising

How We Share Information

Financial companies choose how they share your personal information. Federal law gives consumers the right to limit some but not all sharing. Federal law also requires us to tell you how we collect, share, and protect your personal information. Please read this notice carefully to understand what we do at cashmerevalleybank.com/privacy.

Account Deletion

The deletion of an account cannot be added to online banking. Federal Deposit Insurance Incorporation (FDIC) and Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) regulations require financial institutions to retain certain account data for at least five years after the account is closed.

Online Banking Data Security

Security is a top priority for Cashmere Valley Bank. We maintain strict security standards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal and financial information. Online Banking has multiple security features embedded to protect your information:

  • We utilize 128-bit encryption technology when online banking information is being transmitted.
  • You are required to choose your Online Banking password. Only you should know your password. CVB representatives will never ask you for your password.
  • If you incorrectly enter your User ID or password three times, you will be locked out of Online Banking.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is required when signing into Online Banking or CVB Mobile. 2FA is an additional layer of verification that's required in addition to your User ID and password.
  • You will be automatically signed out after a period of inactivity.
  • You can see all the devices used to access your account and remove any devices you are no longer using. You will also receive an email alert each time a new device signs in.
