How We Use and Protect Personal Information

To DeWaay Financial Network and its affiliates protecting your privacy is very important. We value your trust and we want you to understand what information we collect, how we protect it, and how we use it. We treat personal information – nonpublic information that identifies you – with respect, and in accordance with this privacy policy.

Information We May Collect

We may obtain information, much of which comes directly from you, to provide you with products and services you have requested and as we deem appropriate, to determine your eligibility for products or services. We may collect identification and contact information, as well as transaction and investment experience information from applications, transactions with others and us, and from outside companies.

Examples of the Sources and Types of Information We May Collect Include:

  • Information about the products and services you purchase through us, including copies or applications, registration forms, or other forms, containing your name, address, telephone number, social security number, email address, investment objectives, income assets, employment information, and accounts with others;
  • Information regarding your brokerage and/or investment advisory transaction history with us, our service providers, such as clearing firms or other companies; and information that other companies who assist us in marketing our own products and services or products we offer jointly with other financial institutions may have, such as your name, address, and telephone number;
  • Information under the USA Patriot Act enacted by the United States Treasury Department and Congress to combat terrorism. (Investor notification is available upon request.)

Information We May Disclose and To Whom We May Disclose Information

DeWaay Financial Network does not disclose your personal information to companies or organizations not affiliated with us that would use the information we have provided them to contact you about their own products and services. We may disclose all the personal information we collect, as described above, to our staff, affiliates, representatives, their affiliated businesses, insurance companies, brokers, banks, broker/dealers and investment advisers that provide services to you on our behalf, in the following types of situations:

We may disclose the non-public personal information we collect about you to affiliated and unaffiliated financial service providers such as broker-dealers, insurance agencies and other financial institutions in order to provide or aid in the servicing of your account.

Additionally, from time to time, we may disclose your name, address and other necessary information to unaffiliated marketing service providers in order to aid in the printing, preparation and delivering of portfolio management performance reports, confirmation statements and other documents.

We recognize that you have elected to open accounts with us due to the efforts of your Registered Representative. If he or she elects to leave our firm for another registered broker-dealer, we may allow them to take your information with them to the new firm, subject to the requirements or limitations of applicable law. If you do not want your Registered Representative to transfer this information from our firm to his or her new firm in the event he or she decides to leave our firm for another registered broker-dealer, please contact us at 866-875-7112 or 515-273-1300.

Disclosures Permitted by Law

We may also disclose all the information we collect as permitted or required by law. For example, we may disclose information to law enforcement agencies or insurance and securities regulatory agencies.
