Money Concepts Capital Corp.
Customer Privacy Notice
At Money Concepts Capital Corp. (“MCC”) we understand that the privacy and security of the personal and account information that you have entrusted to us and to our independent associates with whom you have chosen to do business are of utmost importance. We value the opportunity to serve you, and we are obligated to honor that relationship with care. For that reason, MCC and its affiliate company, Money Concepts International, Inc., adhere to confidentiality standards that are designed to protect your personal information. We believe that your privacy should not be compromised. At the same time, we want our independent associates 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 policy outlined below.
PROTECTING YOUR INFORMATION
When you establish a relationship with an independent MCC advisor and purchase financial and investment products and services through MCC, you are asked to share personal and financial information used to help in the assessment and attainment of your financial goals. In that relationship, independent MCC advisors will use the information to assist you in identifying the services and products you may want or need, to meet changing needs, and to identify constantly developing new products and services that may be of interest to you. MCC may also want to contact you to review your current information and status in order to assure that both we and our independent associates can serve you better. The information you share with us is important to you, and you can expect that we will protect the privacy and use of your private personal and financial information. At MCC we are committed to protecting the privacy of the information we collect, use, and share about you.
MCC has taken the appropriate methods that require the disposal of consumer report information so that the information cannot practically be read or reconstructed
OUR DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION
So that you may be better served, MCC and its independent associates may share information about you with nonaffiliated financial institutions, such as banks, clearing firms, or custodians, who perform services on our behalf or when necessary for the performance of our services. These non-affiliated financial institutions are bound by obligations of confidentiality not to disclose any information provided by MCC or any independent MCC advisor about you and may not use such information for any purposes other than the performance of the particular service involved. We also may disclose information about you to non-affiliated third parties as permitted by law, for example, to process a financial product or service that you have authorized. We also may share your information with regulators and law enforcement organizations, or in response to a subpoena or discovery request, as permitted or required by law.
In this way, we can also make available new products and services. Our employees have access to your information only when it is necessary for them to assist you or your independent MCC advisor in the completion of transactions or in the offer and sale of additional products and services. All of our employees are strictly held to this privacy policy, and each of our independent associates confirms his or her undertaking to be strictly bound by it. We employ physical and electronic safeguards to protect your non-public personal information. We do not sell, share, or disclose your nonpublic personal information to unaffiliated third-party marketing companies
OPTING IN
If the MCC advisor servicing your account(s) leaves MCC to join another broker/dealer, the MCC advisor may retain copies of your personal information so that he or she can continue to serve you at the new firm. In doing so, your representative may share your information with the new firm but is otherwise required to keep confidential the personal information obtained from you while the associate was affiliated with MCC and he or she may only use it to service your account(s).
If you live in an “opt-in”* state, where we are required to obtain your affirmative consent to share your nonpublic personal information with unaffiliated third parties who do not currently assist us in servicing your account, we will obtain your consent before we allow your advisor to take your information with him or her should your advisor leave MCC.
*If you reside in the state of Alaska, California, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, or Vermont, we are required to obtain your written approval to allow your advisor to take your information to a new firm.
OPTING OUT
If you live in an “opt-out” state and do not want your advisor to take your information with him or her should your advisor decide to leave MCC in the future, you have the right to opt-out of such disclosure. If you have a joint account, we will treat an opt-out direction by a joint customer as applying to all associated joint customers. If you wish to opt-in or opt-out, now or at any time in the future, please contact our Compliance department at 800-326-1825.
