Safeguarding Customer Documents

We collect public and non-public customer data (i.e. name, address, social security #, date of birth, net worth...) from checklists, forms, in written notations, and in documentation provided to us by our customers for investment and consulting services.

During regular business hours, access to customer records is monitored using multiple security systems. These security precautions include video cameras outside the building, in building common areas, and inside the office suite; physical locks on all doors, drawers, cabinets, or offices which contain private customer information; web monitoring and key logging software for all users; IP restrictions on database usage; disabled USB, CD Rom, and flash ports on all firm computers; and forensic tools to review all user activity on firm computer systems. We also have additional levels of cyber security through our broker/dealer, Osaic Wealth Inc. These precautions have been implemented so that only those with approval may access the files. During hours in which the company is not in operation, the customer records will be locked.

No individual who is unauthorized shall obtain or seek to obtain personal and financial customer information. No individual with authorization to access personal and financial customer information shall share that information in any manner without the specific consent of a firm principal. Failure to observe The Retirement Group, LLC procedures regarding customer and consumer privacy will result in discipline and may lead to termination.
