How Matson Money, Inc. ("Matson Money”) protects Account Owners' ("Account Owner") personal information:

Matson Money Inc. Privacy Policy

Matson Money Inc. takes precautions – including administrative, technical, and physical measures – to safeguard personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. We restrict access to Account Owners’ personally identifiable financial information (“Nonpublic Personal Information”) to employees who need to know that information to provide services to Account Owners. Matson Money also maintains physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect Account Owners’ Nonpublic Personal Information.

Integrity of Account Owners' personal information:

Matson Money has safeguards in place to keep Account Owners' information complete and up to date: Matson Money has proprietary software that provides the tools to review and update Account Owner information. No other software used at Matson Money can affect the Account Owner's account information. This software logs every change made to an account so that it has a paper trail for tracking and accountability. Only a select group of people have the ability to alter Account Owners' data. Website access is strictly read-only; no changes can be made via the website. 

Technologies:

The Matson Money website that Account Owners may access, http://www.MatsonMoney.com, is a forced SSL site (meaning all traffic is encrypted) that does not allow the saving of login information. Matson Money requests the username and password upon each login. Matson Money maintains an integral difference between what is contained in the database and what Account Owner(s) and Authorized Representative(s) can access. Full database backups are performed every night. These backups are rotated on an abbreviated GFS scheme: translating into six tapes for daily backups, two tapes for weekly backups, and one tape for monthly backup. This is an industry standard approach modified for limited archival retrieval based on our constantly changing data. Backups are encrypted on both disk and tape using l28-bit encryption. 

Company-wide Commitment to Privacy of Account Owners:

Matson Money does not sell Account Owners' personal information to anyone. Matson Money collects Nonpublic Personal Information from Account Owners from the following sources: 

  • Account applications and other formats, which may include an Account Owner's name, address, Social Security number, or other information about the Account Owner(s). 
  • Account Owner investment goals and risk tolerance. 
  • An Account Owner's professional advisors, such as an Account Owner's broker, financial planner, attorney, accountant, or an Authorized Representative who may provide financial or investment history and tax information about the Account. 
  • History of accounts including information about the transactions Matson Money has placed for Account Owner and balances in Account Owner's account(s). 
  • Correspondence, written or telephonic, between Account Owner and Matson Money or Account Owner's Authorized Representative, or custodian and Matson Money. 

Matson Money does not disclose any Nonpublic Personal Information about the Account Owner to any entity that is not an affiliate of, or related by common ownership or affiliated by corporate control (“Unaffiliated Third Party”) with, Matson Money except as permitted or required by law. 

Accordingly, Matson Money may disclose all of the information Matson Money collects about the Account Owner or the Account Owner’s account(s), as described above, under the following circumstances: 

  • Matson Money receives an Account Owner’s consent. 
  • Matson Money believes the recipient to be an Account Owner's Authorized Representative. 
  • The recipient is an Authorized Representative, custodian, or other service provider with whom Matson must share information in order to manage or service an Account Owner's account properly. 
  • The recipient is an Unaffiliated Third Party that performs marketing services on Matson Money's behalf. 
  • Matson Money is required by law to release the information to the recipient. 

Matson Money will only use information about Account Owner and Account Owner's account(s) to: 

  • Service Account Owner’s investment and financial needs. 
  • Manage and service Account Owner’s account(s). 
  • Administer Matson Money's business. 

Matson Money will adhere to the policies and practices described in this policy whether Account Owner is a current or non-current Account Owner of Matson Money. 

Matson Money will not directly contact Account Owner to ask for Nonpublic Personal Information for Account(s). 

  • Any request or verification of Nonpublic Personal Information will be directed to an Authorized Representative. 
  • If Nonpublic Personal Information is requested by someone other than an Authorized Representative, Matson Money will verify Social Security number and date of birth of Account Owner prior to release of said information. This type of request would occur in the event Account Owner closes account(s) and assets are being transferred to a new investment firm.
