Privacy Policy

The Nationwide Mortgage Loan Company respects your right to privacy and appreciates your trust in our website and our network. We have developed this statement to demonstrate our commitment to your privacy. As such, we are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of your personal financial information. These guidelines disclose the privacy policies for this website, www.bdnationwidemortgage.com. We consider safeguarding your financial information a fundamental part of our business philosophy.

Any and all changes to these guidelines will be posted here. Nationwide Mortgage Loans only obtains information about you when you supply such information to us via correspondence such as e-mails, letters, and telephone or if other users or third parties send correspondence to Nationwide Mortgage Loans about your activities or applications on the Web site, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.

Nationwide Mortgage Loans may at times gather anonymous information, which may be used by us or shared with third parties. This information does not personally identify you, but may be helpful for finding a loan program that we were not able to fit you with. Generally this information is collected through analyzed "traffic data" and similar reports. Nationwide Mortgage Loans may contact you or notify you of special loan programs offered by the partners in our network or affiliated service providers. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.

  • Information about your online transactions with us, as well as information about our online communications with you. Examples include your online bill payments and your activity on the Web site, such as collecting information on product information reviewed.

We do not sell any personal information to list brokers, mail-order businesses, or telemarketers. Your information is delivered only to mortgage related bankers, lenders, brokers, loan officers and professionals for the purpose of finding you an appropriate solution for your lending needs. Opting-in on your applications and forms or submitting information through our site means you are aware of and consent to have your information shared with Nationwide Mortgage inc's lending partners and financial services providers for possible contact and marketing activities. Nationwide Mortgage Loans (and its Web Properties and Web Sites) contain links to other sites that were deemed helpful. Nationwide Mortgage Loans is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.

Disclosure of Non-Public Personal Information. We do not disclose non-public personal information about our customers to non-affiliated third parties, except as permitted by law.
