SECURITY MEASURES AND SAFEGUARDS
The security of our users’ information is very important to us. When users submit personal information via the Services, that information is protected by generally accepted industry standards, and in accordance with applicable data privacy laws, including both online and offline security measures and safeguards. The Company uses a combination of administrative, technical, personnel, and physical measures to safeguard personal information in its possession against loss, theft, and unauthorized use, disclosure, or modification. However, no one can guarantee the complete safety of your information.
IF YOU HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THAT YOUR INTERACTION WITH US IS NO LONGER SECURE (FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU FEEL THAT THE SECURITY OF ANY ACCOUNT YOU MIGHT HAVE WITH US HAS BEEN COMPROMISED), PLEASE IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY US OF THE PROBLEM. However, please remember that no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is one-hundred percent secure and, therefore, while we strive to use commercially reasonable means to protect your personal information, and will comply with applicable data privacy laws, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of such information.
PHISHING
Phishing is a term used to describe a type of internet scam in which inauthentic communications that appear to be coming from a legitimate source are sent in an attempt to trick you into providing confidential information. These communications usually invoke a sense of urgency and often imply that your account is about to be closed unless immediate action is taken. As an example, phishing emails will often ask you to click on a link that leads you to a webpage that simulates that of the legitimate source, but it is really a page specially designed to get you to input your confidential information such as your account number, password, social security number, or credit card number. The thieves then use that information to commit fraud and identity theft.
The Office of the Comptroller of Currency has set up a website providing information warning consumers about the dangers of these scams and how to protect yourself. To learn more about phishing, please click on the following link: https://www.occ.gov/topics/consumers-and-communities/consumer-protection/fraud-resources/phishing-attack-prevention.html. If you ever question the legitimacy of an email or other communication from the Company, please contact us at privacy@williamoneil.com. If you believe you have been the victim of a scam, you can file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at: www.consumer.gov/idtheft/ .

We may retain backup information related to any account/interaction on our servers for fraud detection or to comply with Applicable Laws or our internal security policies. It is not always possible to completely remove or delete all personal information due to technical constraints, contractual, financial, or legal requirements. Where it is not possible to remove or delete all information, the Company shall continue to safeguard your information as detailed herein.
