The information we learn about our customers helps us personalize and continually improve the service and features of BigOakTexas.com. Here are the types of information we collect:
Information You Give Us – We receive and may store any personal and financial information you enter on our Website or may give us in any other way.

We may use the information that you provide for a variety of purposes, including to respond to your requests, to customize future options for you, to improve the overall quality of the Website, and to communicate with you, among other things.
We may receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many other websites, we use “cookies” (described more fully below) to obtain certain types of non-personally identifiable information (i.e., your IP address) when your web browser accesses BigOakTexas.com. BigOakTexas.com uses the standard “cookies” feature of major browser applications that allows the site to store a small piece of date on a user’s computer about their visit to the site. BigOakTexas.com does not set any personal information or personally identifiable information in cookies, nor does BigOakTexas.com employ any data-capture mechanism on the site or services provided by the site other than in cookies. Cookies can be helpful in learning which areas of the site and which uses and services of the site are useful while also providing information on which site areas or services need improvement. Users of our site can choose whether to accept cookies by changing settings on their browser and/or their computing device:
A number of companies and some web browsers offer utilities designed to help you visit websites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalized experience at BigOakTexas.com if we cannot recognize you, we want you to be aware that these tools may be available to you. Additionally, BigOakTexas.com uses Google Analytics to track user traffic to BigOakTexas.com.
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers (i.e., text) that may be delivered by a web server (like BigOakTexas.com) to your web browser to enable the delivering web server to recognize your browser for a variety of purposes, including to authenticate your use of or log-in to a secure website, to store and set your website preferences, and to provide you with personalized greetings, among other things, Because cookies are simple text and not “executable,” a cookie will not give your computer a virus or other harmful program.
The “Help” portion of the toolbar on most web browsers may tell you how to prevent your web browser from accepting new cookies, how to have your web browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable cookies altogether. By disabling cookies altogether, however, you will not be able to take full advantage of some of BigOakTexas.com’s coolest features, and we, therefore, recommend that you leave cookies turned on, or at least instruct your web browser to make an exception for cookies sent to you by BigOatkTexas.com.
