Welcome to Lexington Home Loans's website. This section explains our policy regarding any personal information you might supply to us when you visit this site.

You can visit this site and find out about our products and services, read about our company, check on career opportunities, get a news update or other value-added services without giving us any information about yourself.

If you do provide personal information such as your address, e-mail, telephone, fax numbers, demographic, and customer identification, it will be sent to us over a secure connection using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

We will maintain this information as well as your business activities and transactions with our usual strict security and confidentiality standards.

In order to provide better service, we use "cookies." A cookie is a small piece of information which a website stores on your web browser on your computer and can later retrieve. The cookie cannot be read by a website other than the one that sets the cookie. We use cookies for a number of administrative purposes. For example, to store your preferences for certain kinds of information or to store a password so that you do not have to input it every time you visit our site.

Most cookies last only through a single session, or visit. None will contain information that will enable anyone to contact you by telephone, e-mail, or postal mail. You can set up your web browser to inform you when cookies are sent, or to prevent cookies from being set.
