Popular is committed to providing you with the most complete information possible to help you make sound financial decisions. As a convenience to you, Popular may provide access to information, products or services offered on websites or Internet resources that are owned or operated by other companies, that are not otherwise affiliates of Popular (“third-party website”). We provide this access through the use of hyperlinks that automatically move you from and out of Popular webpages or websites (including, as the case may be, the Site) to a third-party website. When you link from an applicable Popular webpage or website (including, as the case may be, the Site) to a third-party website, the linked site may appear in a new browser window or an alert will appear to notify you that you are leaving a Popular webpage or website, as the case may be.

Hyperlinks to third-party websites are solely for informational purposes and for use at your own risk. Popular cannot and does not endorse, approve or guarantee information, products, services or recommendations provided at a third-party website and disclaims any and all liability in connection therewith.

You should familiarize yourself with the privacy policy and security practices of the linked third-party website before providing personal information. Those are the policies and practices that will apply to your use of the linked third-party website, NOT Popular’s policies and practices. In the event you conduct a transaction on a linked third-party website, Popular will not represent either members or the owner of the linked or accessed third-party website.

Here are some tips to help you tell if you have left the Site:

  • Instead of a Popular Internet address, the URL of the linked third-party website appears in the location box (or address field) of your web browser.
  • The linked third-party website is shown in a new browser window. The appearance of the linked third-party website, including its colors and graphic design, is significantly different from the Popular website
  • The linked third-party website or webpage does not appear in a new browser, but you find one or more of the following:
    • The logo of a different company on the linked third-party website, or the words “Powered by,” “Brought to you by,” or “Provided by.”
    • The layout and content of the navigation tools on the linked third-party website are different from Popular’s navigation content or layout.
    • The navigation hyperlink(s) refers to a description of the company that sponsors the third-party website. It may be titled “About (Third Party’s Name)”
    • A third party’s privacy policy and terms of use statement are identified instead of Popular’s.
    • Information in the footer at the bottom of the webpage contains information about a company other than Popular.
