Frequently Asked Questions About Ellie Mae™’s Updated Privacy Policies

Why has Ellie Mae’s Privacy Policy changed?

Ellie Mae has updated its privacy policy to be use and product-specific and to allow individual users of our website and our products to quickly and easily find relevant facts about Ellie Mae’s information handling practices. In addition, we’ve updated our privacy policies to provide additional information about our collection, use , sharing and storage of customer and borrower information.

What changes have been made to the Privacy Policies?

The updated Privacy Policies provide more detail about our marketing practices, and reflect practices related to new products and services we offer. In particular, we have added specific disclosures about Encompass360® , the Ellie Mae Network (formerly referred to as our ePASS® system) and the Encompass Compliance Engine (formerly referred to as Mavent ACE). We also explain our customers’ and their customers’ use of our CenterWise products, including Electronic Document Management and WebCenter interfaces as well as adding more detail about the security measures taken to protect your information and the technical functionality of any information sharing practices.

Ellie Mae updated our privacy policy to reflect our adoption of privacy policies and procedures specific to new products and marketing practices, and to provide customers with more of a layered notice approach, consistent with evolving standards for privacy policies.

To whom does the updated Privacy Policy apply?

Our updated Ellie Mae Website policy applies to persons (including customers and authorized users of our software products) who access Ellie Mae’s website through www.elliemae.com, including our Service Center pages for Appraisal Center, Title Center and Loan Center.

Our updated product policies are intended for persons and entities that have purchased and are using each applicable product.

Our updated policies are not intended for third party partners of our users or of Ellie Mae, nor are they directed at individual borrowers whose transactions may be processed or assessed by Ellie Mae products or services in the course of standard Ellie Mae product functionality, including within Encompass360® , in connection with a CenterWise or Ellie Mae Network transaction or when running the Encompass Compliance Engine on a particular loan file. Individuals who transact directly with Ellie Mae’s users, including through such users’ individualized WebCenters or independent websites, should refer to the privacy statements on such third party sites to understand how their information is collected, used and shared by those parties.

When do the revisions take effect?

You should refer to the Effective Date of each posted policy to learn when it was last updated because we will continue to revise each policy as our technology and information practices change. The latest revision took effect on April 19, 2010.
