Security 

Desjardins Capital régional et coopératif adheres to very strict and rigorous security standards.

Access to capitalregional.com is controlled by a firewall, among other security measures. A firewall is a security mechanism that filters attempts to access an Internet in order to head off any unauthorized attempts or intrusions.

Despite these precautions, you must implement the personal security measures recommended on this site in order to maintain optimal protection when you surf the capitalregional.com site or any other Internet site. 

Personal security measures

Security icon 
Be sure you always surf in a secure environment when transmitting confidential data. When you don't see a security icon (closed padlock) displayed on your PC or wireless device (if the latter offers this functionality), or when you notice an open padlock, this means the security of any Internet transaction or data transmission cannot be guaranteed and could be intercepted by a third party.

e-mail 

• The messages you send via e-mail or to the Contact Us section of the Web site are not, generally speaking, secured during transmission. It is therefore important not to include any personal or confidential information in such messages.
• The e-mails you receive can be opened and read by others if you fail to take necessary precautions. To avoid this, obtain a customized e-mail address linked to a message inbox that can only be accessed with a password or by you alone.

If you are part of a group sharing the same e-mail address (e.g., members of the same family), contact your e-mail services provider to inquire about setting up individual inboxes with separate passwords. A number of service providers offer this option.
