To protect your personal information from unauthorized access and use, we use security measures that comply with federal law. These measures include computer safeguards and secured files and buildings.
Citizens Bank employees are bound by our Code of Ethics and other policies to access consumer information only for legitimate business purposes and to keep information about you confidential.
How does Citizens Bank collect my personal information?

- Open an account or apply for a loan
- Pay your bills or make deposits or withdrawals from your account

Why can’t I limit all sharing?
Federal law gives you the right to limit only:

State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit sharing.
