Online Security Statement: Member Information security is a top priority at Fieldpoint Private. Fieldpoint Private has built a secure network architecture utilizing well-vetted technology. Our firm will continue to adopt new technologies to ensure confidentiality, flexibility, and a superior member experience.

We want your online banking experience and usage of the Fieldpoint Private website to be safe while easy to navigate. Secure systems are a combination of technology, policies and people. Our architecture utilizes a multi-layered approach to information security, providing safeguards and privacy throughout the process.

Fieldpoint Private built a site offering multifactor authentication, data integrity, complete transactional privacy, and above all, resistance to all forms of hacking attempts. Layered security means that, rather than relying on a single security measure, Fieldpoint Private uses layers of technology within the security architecture to distance harmful intrusions as far as possible from the core of sensitive information and resources.

The first layer of security is our members. Please be aware of several straight forward security tips when using any internet site containing sensitive information:
• Please use a strong password. Choose passwords that are difficult for others to guess and use a different password for each of your online accounts. Use both letters and numbers and a combination of lower case and capital letters.
•Change your online banking passwords often. You can do this quickly and easily by signing on and going to the designated area.
• Make sure your home computer has the most current anti-virus software. Anti-virus software needs frequent updates to guard against new viruses. We recommend that you use a program that automatically updates your virus protection on a regular basis.
• Install a personal firewall to help prevent unauthorized access to your home computer. This is important if you are connected to the internet via a cable modem or a digital subscriber line (DSL) modem.
• When your computer is not in use, please shut it down or disconnect from the internet.

Act quickly if you detect fraud. If you believe someone is trying got commit fraud and/or you think you may have provided personal or account information in response to a fraudulent email or web site, report the incident immediately, change your passwords.
