In order to preserve the integrity of the information you provide to us while opening an account with Steven J Weitz, and/or my Futures Commission Merchant, Ironbeam, Inc. I want you to clearly understand how I strive to protect your privacy.
How I Protect Personal Information
Ironbeam restricts access to your personal information to firm personnel who require access to your information in order to conduct our business, service your account, and help you to accomplish your financial objectives.

I do not rent or sell your name or personal information to anyone.
Why and How I Collect Personal Information
When you apply for or maintain an account with myself, through Ironbeam, I collect personal information about you for business purposes, such as evaluating your financial needs, processing your requests and transactions, informing you about products and services that may be of interest to you, and providing customer service. We may collect the following types of non-public personal information from you:

Ironbeam does not disclose non-public information listed above to non-affiliated third parties, except as permitted by law and neither do I. For example, I may share non-public information with the following types of parties:
Governmental agencies, other regulatory bodies and law enforcement officials; Financial service institutions (e.g. advisers, dealers, brokers, trust companies and banks) with whom I have joint marketing agreements, such as agreements to market financial services or products that I jointly offer, endorse or sponsor; and Companies under contract to perform services for us or on our behalf, such as vendors that prepare and mail statements and transaction confirmations or provide data processing, computer software maintenance and development, transaction processing, auditing and marketing services.
Further, Ironbeam may disclose personal information with other non-affiliated companies as permitted or required by applicable law, such as in a response to a subpoena or legal process or in order to complete a transaction which you initiated and authorized. These providers acting on our behalf are required to maintain the confidentiality of any customer information they may obtain in connection with their services. Except as described in this privacy policy, I will not use your personal information for any other purpose unless I describe how such information will be used at the time you disclose it to us or I obtain your permission to do so.
