 Sharing Information With Our Affiliates

  We may share personal information described above with our affiliates for business purposes, such as servicing customer accounts and informing customers about new products and services, and as permitted by applicable law.  Our affiliates are busineses controlled or owned by us, or companies controlling or under common control with our owner (George Slezak), and include financial service companies, other broker businesses, and advisers.

 The information we share with affiliates for marketing purposes may include the information described above, such as name, address and George Slezak account information, but will not include other credit information, such as credit history appearing on a consumer credit report or net worth and income information appearing on applications for our products and services.

 ·           companies under contract to perform services for us or on our behalf, such as vendors that prepare and mail statements and transaction confirmations or provide data processing, computer software maintenance and development, transaction processing and marketing services.

 These companies acting on our behalf are required to keep your personal information confidential.

 Also, we may disclose personal information with non-affiliated companies and regulatory authorities as permitted or required by applicable law.  For example, we may disclose personal information to cooperate with regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies to comply with subpoenas or other official requests, and as necessary to protect our rights or property.  Except as described in this privacy policy, we will not use your personal information for any other purpose unless we describe how such information will be used at the time you disclose it to us or we obtain your permission to do so.
