Clients
Our clients provide us with information that is inherently personal and private in nature, so we take seriously our duty to maintain the confidential nature of that information.

We collect nonpublic information about our clients from the following sources:

- Information we receive from clients verbally or electronically in the regular course of providing services.
We may disclose nonpublic personal information about clients to the following types of non-affiliated parties as necessary to provide our services:
- Financial service providers, such as asset custodians, banking institutions, and insurance providers;
- Regulatory and governmental authorities as required by law;
- Other professional advisors, such as attorneys and accountants, as authorized by the client; and
- Others, as the client may specify or request.
We take the utmost care in addressing the administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for the protection of client records and information. We maintain all necessary physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in compliance with governmental standards to guard our clients’ nonpublic personal information. And if a client were to end his or her relationship with us, we will continue to adhere to this privacy policy.
