Privacy Policy - Notice Regarding Privacy of Customer Information

This notice is provided to you on behalf of Select Portfolio Management, Inc., Select Money Management, Inc., Securities Equity Group, and SPM Insurance Services, Inc. (collectively referred to in this notice as “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Affiliated Companies”). Protecting our customers’ privacy is of paramount importance. We recognize that an individual’s financial matters are private and sensitive in nature, and we have adopted policies that assist us in protecting your privacy and, at the same time, help us to provide you with a broad range of high-quality financial products and services.

This Privacy Policy will explain the types of information we collect about you, how we use and share that information, and how you can instruct us to limit certain types of information sharing. Information we obtain from all customers and former customers is treated in the same manner.

How We Protect Your Information

We protect your data and safeguard it from those not authorized to see it by adopting internal policies and procedures. Under no circumstances will we sell confidential customer information to anyone.

Our Business Continuity Plan 

Select Portfolio Management has developed a Business Continuity Plan regarding how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will have to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind,

We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm's books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business. In short, our business continuity plan is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption.

Our business continuity plan addresses: data back up and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact; regulatory reporting; and assuring our customers prompt access to their funds and securities if we are unable to continue our business.

Our clearing firm, National Financial Services, LLC, backs up our important records in a geographically separate area. While every emergency situation poses unique problems based on external factors, such as time of day and the severity of the disruption, our clearing firm has advised us that its objective is to restore its own operations and be able to complete existing transactions and accept new transactions and payments within the same day of the occurrence. Your orders and requests for funds and securities could be delayed during this period. CLICK HERE for a PDF version of the NSF Business Continuity Plan.

Varying disruptions 

Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as only our firm, a single building housing our firm, the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the whole region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary from minimal to severe.

In a disruption to only our firm or a building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to a local site when needed and expect to recover and resume business within the same business day of the occurrence. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area, and recover and resume business within the same business day of the occurrence. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, transfer operations to our clearing firm if necessary, and notify you through the web site of our affiliate Select Portfolio Management, Inc. (www.selectportfolio.com) as to how to contact us or obtain information regarding your investments. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we assure our customers prompt access to their funds and securities.
