The following information is to help you understand how we protect the privacy of your nonpublic personal information. "Nonpublic personal information" is information about you that we obtain in connection with providing you with our financial product(s).

We will take prompt action to make the appropriate corrections and to notify anyone with whom we may have shared inaccurate information.
