| Our Commitment
to Security |
Bremen Financial Corporation offers
you the ability to select sophisticated encryption and
authentication technologies if supported by your PC configuration,
to ensure that your transaction is secure. Our Digital ID from
VeriSign, Inc. allows your browser to verify Bremen Financial Corporation's
Internet identity every time you visit our site, and ensures that
information you send to our Internet address will be delivered
only to us. In addition, our Digital ID enables us to use Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption capabilities, making information
transmissions between your browser and our server secure, in the
extremely unlikely case a third party were to intercept
them.

| The Information
We Collect |
You browse the Bremen Financial Corporation
web site anonymously. There are two ways that we gather
information about you. First, we do track which pages of our site
you visit and note your IP address (as all web sites do
automatically), but do not gather any information about you as an
individual. The general information we gather enables us to serve
you better by continually improving our site based on current use
patterns. Second, we also gather specific information from you
when you’re interested in our products and services.

| We Respect Your
Personal Privacy |
Bremen Financial Corporation knows
how important it is that sensitive information about you remains
confidential. Bremen Financial Corporation will not exchange
general tracking and IP address information collected by our web
site with any companies outside the Bremen Financial Corporation
family of companies without your permission. As a Bremen Financial Corporation
customer, you’ll receive from time-to-time, valuable product and
service offers from us, from our affiliates, and other
well-established companies. We carefully develop these offers to
meet our standards and to assure that they reach customers most
likely to take advantage of the opportunity. To do so, we gather
information you provide on your application and from servicing
your home loans or other products and services that may indicate
financing and investing preferences to create marketing lists. We
create these lists under conditions designed to protect the
privacy of your information. If you do not
wish to receive this valuable product and service information,
please submit your request on our feedback
page.
