As a financial
service provider, in the course of our relationship with you, we (Concord
Insurance & Financial Planning Group Inc.) collect personal information
from you. This information typically includes “know your client”
information about your personal circumstances, including your financial
situation and your investment objectives, as well as information about
your investments, banking information and social insurance number.
We use such personal information only for the purposes of administering
your account with us, and complying with legal and regulatory requirements.
We may provide information to companies, which perform services on
our behalf (such as preparing and mailing statements or processing
trades and payments). We also may provide personal information to
the insurance companies and mutual fund issuers in which you invest.
We are members of various self-regulatory organizations, such as the
Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada, who require access to personal
information for regulatory purposes (such as trading surveillance,
regulatory audits, enforcement/disciplinary proceedings and regulatory
reporting). We do not disclose your information to any other organizations
to use for their own purposes, and in particular we never sell or
trade information about you.
We believe that the purposes for which we collect, use and disclose
your personal information are central to our providing you with our
services as a financial service advisor, and that we cannot continue
to provide you with those services if you object to our collecting,
using and disclosing your information for those purposes. We will
therefore consider that your continuing to maintain your account with
us constitutes your consent to our continuing to collect, use and
disclose your personal information as described above. Of course,
if we later identify a new purpose, we will seek your consent before
collecting, using or disclosing your information for that new purpose.
