Our Privacy Policy
Privacy is a hot topic these days and new legislation has been passed to guard your rights. Privacy legislation became necessary mostly because of large institutions “sharing” your privileged information with subsidiaries of their company . That information was then used to solicit other business. Though V.I.P. does not share your information with anybody for this purpose; we are stating our policy to comply with new legislation.
V.I.P. Trust Deed Company and its affiliated trustee Foothill Conveyance Corporation have always recognized and been guided by the belief that protecting each person’s right to privacy is fundamental to the quality of customer relationships. Given the rapid pace of technological advancement in our society, the need to protect personal privacy has become even more important.
To let customers know the high priority we place on protecting their privacy, we want you to be aware of the principles we follow when collecting, maintaining, using, and safeguarding information about your relationship with us, whether collected electronically or otherwise.
