The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. This information is used to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.

We may provide links to external websites with third-party services and products available to PHFCU members. External websites are not under our control and may have different data-collection, privacy, and security policies. We do not provide information about our members through links. However, using the links may identify a PHFCU member as a visitor to pearlhawaii.com to the external website operators. PHFCU is not responsible for the content or accuracy of any information contained on external websites. Please review the terms and conditions of external websites and third-party services and products carefully.

If a member has an important message for us that is time-sensitive (for example, if they want to report a lost or stolen ATM card or credit card, stop payment on a check, or if they have other information which requires prompt action), they should not email as we may not check our email messages regularly. Instead, members should contact us at (808) 73.PHFCU (737.4328) or toll-free at 800.987.5583 (Continental U.S. and Neighbor Islands), message us in our Secured Messaging system with PHFCUOnline, or go to the nearest Pearl Hawaii branch office.

Please note, however, that we will never contact members by email, text, telephone, mail, or another type of correspondence and request a PIN, password, username, or access code. If a member is contacted by anyone asking for a PIN, password, username or other access code, members should refuse and immediately contact us.
