Privacy Policy
Kardinal Financial LLC (“KF”) recognizes that our relationships with current and prospective clients are based on integrity and trust. We work hard to maintain your privacy and to preserve the private nature of our relationship with you. We place the highest value on the information you share with us. KF will not disclose your personal information to anyone unless it is required by law or at your direction. We will not sell your personal information.
We want clients to understand what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect your personal information:
Why We Collect Your Information
We gather information about you so that we can:
- Help design and implement the investment and planning related services we provide you; and
- Comply with the Federal and State laws and regulations that govern us.
What Information We Collect and Maintain
We may collect the following types of “nonpublic personal information” about you:
- Information from our initial meeting or subsequent consultations about your identity, such as your name, address, social security number, date of birth, and financial information.
- Information that we generate to service your financial needs.
- Information that we may receive from third parties with respect to your financial profile.
What Information We Disclose
We are permitted by law to disclose nonpublic information about you to unaffiliated third parties in certain circumstances. KF may disclose client's information: (1) to individuals and/or entities not affiliated with KF, including, but not limited to certain service providers (i.e., broker-dealer, sub-advisers, account custodian, record keeper, etc.) in furtherance of the client's engagement with KF to service your account; (2) to your authorized representative or power of attorney; or (3) otherwise permitted to do so in accordance with the parameters of applicable federal and/or state privacy regulations. In the event that KF has a change to its client privacy policy that would allow it to disclose non-public information not covered under applicable law, KF will allow its clients the opportunity to opt-out of such disclosure.
How We Protect Your Personal Information
Privacy has always been important to KF. We restrict and limit access to client information only to those who need to carry out their business functions. We safeguard client information by preventing its unauthorized access, disclosure, or use. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your confidential personal information. Arrangements with companies or independent contractors not affiliated with KF will be subject to confidentiality agreements.
Former Clients
Even if we cease to provide you with financial services, our Privacy Policy will continue to apply to you, and we will continue to treat your nonpublic information with strict confidentiality.
