Our Commitment To Privacy
Mesa Financial, Inc. ("Mesa") knows that you care about how your
personal information is used and shared, and we take your
privacy seriously. Our primary goal is to provide you with
exceptional service, and we understand that you may have
questions or concerns regarding your personal information and
how it will be used. To make this privacy policy easy to find,
we make it available from the home page of the Mesa website at

Applicability Of Privacy Policy
This privacy policy applies to all information we collect
through our web and mobile applications from current and former
Mesa users, including you. When you are no longer our customer,
we may continue to share your information as described in this
policy.
Throughout this policy, we use the term "personal information"
to describe information that can be associated with a specific
person and can be used to identify that person. We do not
consider personal information to include information that has
been aggregated and/or anonymized so that it does not identify a
specific user.
By using the products and services offered on the Site
(collectively, the "Services"), you agree to the practices
described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this
Privacy Policy, please do not access the Site or otherwise use
the Services.
