Dear Diamond Title Company Customer:

Most of Diamond Title Company’s business is title insurance, but there may be companies in our family that provide other real estate services to consumers. We collect information about you, (for instance, your name, address, telephone number), and information about your transaction, including the identity of the real property that you are buying or financing. We obtain a copies and originals of any deeds, notes, mortgages, or loan documents that are involved in the transaction. We may get this information from you or from the lender, attorney, or real estate broker that you have chosen.

The privacy laws permit some sharing without your approval. We may share internally and with non affiliated third parties in order to carry out and service your transaction, to protect against fraud or unauthorized transactions, for institutional risk control, and to provide information to government and law enforcement agencies. Companies within a family may share certain information among themselves in order to identify and market their own products that they think may be useful to you. Credit information about you is shared only to facilitate your transaction or for some other purpose permitted by law.

How we protect your information.
We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to only those employees who need the information to provide products or services to you.
