PRIVACY POLICY NOTICE 

Business Owner Strategies, Inc., its division ASA Advisors, Inc. and its affiliate B.O.S. Group, Inc. (collectively ‘ASA’), adopted this policy with recognition that protecting the privacy and security of the nonpublic personal information we obtain about our clients is an important responsibility.  

We know you expect service from us in an accurate and efficient manner.  To do so, we must collect, maintain and safeguard certain nonpublic personal information from you. 

What Information We collect 

We collect certain nonpublic personal information about you (such as your name, address, social security number, etc.) that you provide on applications or other forms as well as communications (electronic, telephone, written or in-person) with you or your authorized representatives (such as your attorney, accountant, etc.).  We also collect information about your brokerage accounts and transactions (such as purchases, sales, account balances, inquiries, etc.). 

What Information We Disclose 

ASA does not disclose the nonpublic personal information we collect about our clients to anyone except:  (1) in furtherance of our business relationship with clients, and then only to those persons necessary to effect the transactions and provide the services that clients authorize (such as broker-dealers, custodians, independent managers etc.); (2) to persons assessing our compliance with industry standards (e.g., professional licensing authorities, etc.); (3) our attorneys, accountants, and auditors; or (4) as otherwise provided by law. 

We are permitted by law to disclose the nonpublic personal information about you to governmental agencies and other third parties in certain circumstances (such as third parties that perform administrative services on our behalf).  These third parties are prohibited to use or share the information for any other purpose.  If you decide to either terminate our services or become an inactive client, we will continue to adhere to our Privacy Policy, as may be amended from time to time. 

Security of Your Information 

We restrict access to your nonpublic personal information to those employees who need to know that information to service your account.  We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with applicable federal or state standards to protect your nonpublic personal information. 

Changes to Our Privacy Policy or Relationship with You 

Our policy about obtaining and disclosing information may change from time to time.  We will provide you notice of any material change to this policy before we implement the change. 

Opting Out 

Clients cannot opt-out of allowing ASA to share their nonpublic personal information with non-affiliated third parties that require such information to service their accounts.
