- The types of personal information we collect and share depend on the product or service you have with us. This information can include:
- Social Security number and credit history
- Mortgage rates and payments and overdraft history

- How?
- All financial companies need to share member's personal information to run their everyday business. In the section below, we list the reasons financial companies can share their member's personal information, the reasons WNC Community Credit Union chooses to share, and whether you can limit this sharing.

Until these documents are provided, the credit union will be unable to effect transactions.
