Privacy policy changes and updates — Asset International may update this policy from time to time as we add new services and new features.
ACCURACY, ACCESS
A member can terminate his or her service with Asset International at any time. When service is terminated, Asset International will endeavor to remove member information from our system and to stop sending email and newsletters to such member. Removing a member from our main files does not remove that member's record from any of the backup systems. It may take months before backup records are completely recycled and related data are completely removed. Backup records remain subject to the same protections as other Asset International records.
SECURITY
Asset International maintains all personal data with physical, electronic, and managerial safeguards to ensure the security and confidentiality of the data against foreseeable risks. Security is designed to prevent unauthorized use, access, disclosure, destruction, and change of data. For example, we restrict access to Asset International computing facilities, including servers, telecommunications equipment, the network control center, and other related areas to individuals identified by management who need access to perform their jobs. We also review recent changes in technology and security measures and regularly train our personnel.
If you click through to another website offering products, services, or content, any information that you disclose to that website will be subject to the security policies of that website and not those of assetinternational.com. Before you provide personal information to other companies, we encourage you to read their security policies.

We do not collect, use, or disclose any information about our members without their knowledge and approval except as permitted by law. We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise disclose our member lists or member information to third parties except as required by law or disclosed herein.

We do not share user information with third parties except when we have informed users about the disclosures as set forth in this privacy policy, when we have prior consent, or when required by law. We do not share your personal information in individually identifiable form with advertisers.
Where Asset International indicates that a part of our site is presented in cooperation with a third party or sponsored by a third party, the privacy policy of assetinternational.com remains valid. That third party does not have access to your individual personal or plan information unless you expressly give permission to share this information. The providers featuring their information on sponsored pages do not know who visited these pages unless the visitor volunteered that information.
Some personal information maintained by Asset International may be used when necessary by outside auditors, consultants, and others hired by Asset International to assist in carrying out financial or operational activities. We permit these uses or disclosures only when necessary. All recipients must agree in writing to safeguard personal information, to use it only for an authorized purpose, and to return it or destroy it upon completion of the activity.
In addition, it is possible that Asset International could be required to disclose personal information in response to valid legal process, such as a search warrant, subpoena, or court order. All record keepers face the possibility that disclosure of their records may be compelled in some civil, criminal, or administrative matters. Disclosures may also be appropriate to protect Asset International's legal rights or during emergencies if physical safety is believed to be at risk. We think that these events are unlikely, but they are possible. We will take reasonable steps to limit the scope and consequences of any of these disclosures.
