Cookies: A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. We may use cookies for a number of purposes, such as tracking usage patterns on the Website or matching the most relevant Web content to your particular needs.

Web Beacons: While you are on the Website, or while you are otherwise viewing our content, you may encounter Web beacons, which may come from Titlevest or from third parties, such as content providers. A Web beacon, which is sometimes also called a "Web bug" or "clear gif," is a small graphic image in a Web page, a Web-based document or an e-mail message, which generally allows the party that set the Web beacon to monitor certain information about the viewer of the Web page, Web-based document or e-mail message, and it may allow access to certain cookies. Web beacons are usually invisible to the user, because they are small. In general, however, any electronic image viewed as part of a Web page, including an advertisement, can act as a Web beacon. Web beacons typically collect the URL of the page the Web beacon comes from, the type of browser requesting the Web beacon, the IP address of the computer that the Web beacon is sent to and the time the Web beacon was viewed. Web beacons can also be linked to personally identifiable information. We may aggregate information we collect through Web beacons. Titlevest does not have control over Web beacons used by third parties and does not have access to whatever information they may collect.
We use the personally identifiable information you provide to ascertain whether you are an appropriate user of this Website, to contact you regarding goods and services, and for other purposes disclosed at the time of collection.
We may share non-identifying aggregate information with third parties. However, we will not share your personally identifiable information with outside parties unless you specifically agree to a governing set of rules that allow such disclosure or otherwise give us permission to do so.
We may employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Our employees, agents and contractors who have access to personally identifiable information are required to protect the information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.
We may provide access to your personally identifiable information when legally required to do so, to cooperate with police investigations or other legal proceedings, to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of the Website, to limit our legal liability and protect our rights or to protect the rights, property or safety of visitors of this Website or the public. In those instances, the information is provided only for that purpose.
In the event Titlevest goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
