At Great Plains Trust Company, the basis of
each customer relationship is trust. We are committed to
honor that relationship with great care, beginning with the
information you have chosen to share with us. We respect the
privacy of our customers and are obligated to treating
customer information responsibly.
What kind of personal information do we have, and
where did we get it?
Most of the personal information that we have about
you comes directly from you. You disclosed much of this information
on your new account application or other documents that you have
provided to us or our affiliates. This personal information may
include but not be limited to, your name, address, birth date, phone
number, Social Security number or e-mail address. Great Plains Trust
also gathers information about your investments, including your
transactions with us, our affiliates or others.
What do we do with the personal information we
have collected about you?
Great Plains Trust Company does not disclose
personal information about current or former customers or their
accounts to companies not affiliated with us that would use the
information to contact you about their own products and services.
Great Plains Trust Company may share your information with
affiliated companies. This would include, for example, sharing
information with Kornitzer Capital Management, our investment
advisor affiliate. In certain instances, we may contract with
non-affiliated companies to perform services for us. In all such
cases, we provide these third parties with only the information
necessary to carry out its assigned responsibilities and only for
that purpose. We require these third parties to treat your personal
information with the same high degree of confidentiality that we do.
In addition, we may release information about you if you direct us
to do so or if we are compelled by law to do so.
How do we protect your personal information?
We restrict access to your personal information to
those Great Plains Trust Company employees who may need to see it to
fulfill and service your needs. We maintain strict physical,
electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your information.
How do we protect privacy online?
Our concern for the privacy of our customers extends
to those who use our website and links from our website to access
personal account information. These sites use some of the most
secure forms of online communication available, including
encryption, and user names and passwords. These technologies provide
both security and privacy when you access your account information
or send secure messages.
