Anonymous Information - Anonymous information that is compiled from various sources and aggregated but which contains no Nonpublic Personal Information is “Aggregated Data.” CADE and third party service providers of CADE (hereinafter “Service Providers”) use Aggregated Data for various business purposes, including for data analytic and marketing purposes.

Online Tracking - CADE and Service Providers operating on our behalf may collect information about your activity on the the Website and App using tracking technologies including Cookies, web beacons, and analytics aggregation tools for many purposes to:

  • Provide useful features to simplify your experience when you return to the website
  • Deliver relevant content based on your preferences, usage patterns and location; and/or
  • Monitor and evaluate the use and operation of the website, analyze traffic on the websites, and report website trends

Online Behavioral Advertising (OBA) - CADE may work with Service Providers to deliver targeted or personalized ads to you that are more relevant to your use of a particular device. In order to target ads we may create and use “audience segments.” These audience segments are based on information collected over time and across the Internet (e.g., websites visited, time spent on various sites and apps). We also may combine information we have about you with information collected by Service Providers regarding online behavior across websites and across devices. We may use this combined information to customize your experience and offer more relevant products or services based on your behavior, interests and preferences.

Here is some important information regarding online behavioral advertising:

  • If you are given an opportunity to opt out from online behavioral advertising and you make an opt-out election, then in order to maintain the opt-out election at our Website and at other websites that might serve behavioral advertisements on our behalf, your browser must be enabled to accept cookies. If you delete cookies, buy a new device, access our Website or other websites from a different device, login under a different screen name, or change web browsers, you will need to opt out again.
  • You also may be able to avoid online behavioral advertising by disabling scripting in your browser. Please check the security settings in your browser to determine the status of scripting settings. However, please note that if you disable scripting, you may be unable to use certain features on a website. In other cases, the website may become inoperable, your experience may not be optimal, you may not be using the latest standards for safe and secure transactions, or you may not be allowed to access the site.

  • Some browsers may provide a “do not track” or similar setting. Our Website does not respond to such settings. If you enable such a setting it will not prevent the collection of information about your online activities over time and across third party websites when you visit our Website or use our Apps.
  • You should be aware that even if you exercise a choice not to receive targeted advertisements in connection with online behavioral advertising, your election does not necessarily stop the collection of information about your online activities over time and across third party websites and online services for purposes other than online behavioral advertising.
  • You may still receive generic advertising (i.e., advertising that is not based on your online activities over time and across third party websites and online services) even if you opt out of online behavioral advertising and opting out of online behavioral advertising may not result in the termination of advertising and promotions provided in connection with programs we may offer.
  • We may share personal information with third-party advertising companies with which we have contracted in order to support other targeted advertising, promotional, and programs that we offer.

Geolocation Data - CADE does not access location data stored on your computer or mobile device without your permission . Some features, such as our ATM/Branch Search, which locates the nearest CADE branch, or ATM, will not fully function unless you have enabled access to your location data.
