At Adams State Bank, the basis of each customer relationship, many of which span generations, is trust. You have chosen to do business with the Adams State Bank (ASB) and we are obligated to honor that relationship with great care, beginning with the information you have chosen to share with us. We believe that your privacy should not be compromised. At the same time, we want to offer you the array of financial products and services you need to accomplish your financial goals. We believe we can do both through the privacy policy outlined below.
