What Members Can Do to Help

We are committed to protecting the privacy of our members. Members can help by following these simple guidelines:

  • Protect your account numbers, plastic card numbers, PINs (personal identification numbers) or passwords. Never keep your PIN with your card, which can provide free access to your accounts if your card is lost or stolen.

  • Use caution when disclosing your account numbers, Social Security numbers, etc. to other persons. If someone calls or emails on behalf of the credit union and asks for your account number, you should beware. Official credit union staff will have access to your information and will not need to ask for it.
