Throughout the
policy, we refer to information that personally identifies
you or your accounts as "personal information."
1. We do not
sell your personal information to anyone.
2. We do not
disclose personal information to third parties, unless one
of the following limited exceptions applies.
We disclose
personal information to companies that help us process or
service your transactions or account(s), including
companies that clear and process your transactions and
print and mail your account statements.
So that you can
learn about products or services, we also may disclose
personal information, such as account and transaction
data, to companies, including financial institutions,
which assist us in marketing. We have contracts with these
companies that prohibit them from using your personal
information for their own purposes.
We may disclose
or report personal information in limited circumstances
where we believe in good faith that disclosure is required
or permitted under law, for example, to cooperate with
regulators or law enforcement authorities, resolve
consumer disputes, perform credit/authentication checks,
or for institutional risk control.
Outside of these
exceptions, we will not share your personal information
with third parties unless you have specifically asked us
to do so, that is, opted-in.
3. We do collect
personal information in the normal course of business in
order to administer your accounts and serve you better.
Application and
registration information. We collect information that you
provide to us when you open an account or register for one
of our services, or when you accept a promotional offer
for a WTC-sponsored product or service. The information we
collect may include name, address, phone number, email
address, social security number, and information about
your interests, investments, and investment experience. We
also may collect information from consumer reporting
agencies.
As part of our
efforts to reach and serve new and existing clients we
sometimes collect and use information from outside mailing
lists.
4. We use your
personal information to fulfill our regulatory obligations
and to help us deliver the best possible service to you.
For example, we
may use your personal information to provide faster more
convenient services or to alert you to WTC products and
services you may find useful.
5. We protect
the confidentiality and security of your personal
information.
Companies we
hire to provide support services are not allowed to use
your personal information for their own purposes and are
contractually obligated to maintain strict
confidentiality. We limit their use of your personal
information to the performance of the specific service we
have requested. We restrict access to personal information
to our employees and agents for business purposes only.
All employees are trained and required to safeguard such
information. We maintain physical, electronic, and
procedural safeguards to guard your personal information.
6. We continue
to evaluate our efforts to protect personal information
and make every effort to keep your personal information
accurate and up to date.
If you identify
any inaccuracy in your personal information, or you need
to make a change to that information, please contact us so
that we may promptly update our records. If you have any
questions or concerns, please contact us by e-mail at
info@worldwidetradingcapital.com.
7. We will
provide notice of changes in our information-sharing
practices.
If, at any time
in the future, it is necessary to disclose any of your
personal information in a way that is inconsistent with
this policy, we will give you advance notice of the
proposed change so that you will have the opportunity to
opt-out of such disclosure.
