How do cookies work?

When a web browser navigates to the Heartland Bank website, a little piece of information goes from the server to the browser. That bit of information is called a cookie. It lets the browser know if you’ve visited the site before, and it helps us understand how to best construct our site to make it more user friendly.

Your browser will keep the cookie and exchange it with the website every time you visit. You can clear all cookies from your browser at any time.

What are cookies used for?

Just above we mentioned how cookies help us better serve you. All that means is we can see if people are running into any issues with pages or processes on the website so we can fix them.

These little cookies also make sure you see the most relevant information, so you don’t spend time scrolling on a page that’s not what you were looking for.

Is my personal information safe?

Yes. Heartland Bank does not store any personal or confidential information in cookies. If you’d like more details, we have a whole page dedicated to our Terms of Use.
