CPAs, like all providers of personal financial services, are required by law to inform their clients of their policies regarding privacy of client information.

Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy.

     with your authorization.

PARTIES TO WHOM WE DISCLOSE INFORMATION
   · For current and former clients, we do not disclose any nonpublic personal information obtained in the
     course of our practice except as required or permitted by law. Permitted disclosures include, for
     instance, providing information to our employees who need to know that information to assist us in
     providing services to you. In all such situations, we stress the confidential nature of information being
     shared.

TYPES OF NONPUBLIC PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
