Privacy Notice
AdvisorNet Financial, a broad-based financial services company, takes privacy very seriously. We hold all nonpublic personal information provided to our firm in strict confidence. The following describes how we protect nonpublic personal information we obtain.
Information We Obtain
Nonpublic personal information we obtain depends upon the scope of financial services provided by our associates or other financial services professionals whom we service. This information may include:
* Information provided in personal interviews or on applications or related forms - for example, name, age, address, Social Security number and annual income.
* Third-party reports, such as consumer credit history, motor-vehicle records, demographic, and/or medical information.
* Estate planning information, investment and other financial transaction information.
We Limit How, and with Whom, We Share Information
First and foremost, we do not sell customer lists or provide personally identifiable information to mailing list vendors or marketers. As permitted by law, and on behalf of various agents and other financial services professionals whom we service, we will share an individual's nonpublic personal information with non-affiliated individuals and companies with the consent of or at the direction of the individual, or when it is necessary to effect, administer or enforce a transaction that the individual requests or authorizes. We also may be required by law or regulation to disclose information to third parties - for example, in response to a subpoena; to prevent fraud; and to comply with rules of, or inquiries from, industry regulators.
Safeguards to Ensure Information Security
We maintain a secure office and computer environment to ensure that nonpublic personal information is not placed at unreasonable risk. We limit access to nonpublic personal information only to those employees, associates, agents and other individuals who may need it to do their jobs. They are required to respect the confidentiality of all customer information.
