The broker you select may collect information required to open an account, to transact business effectively and to safeguard your privacy. T

The information the broker collects directly from you includes information required to communicate with you, including your name, mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address. In addition, we collect information required by law to identify who you are, including your Social Security number, Passport number or Tax Identification number. The brokers we work with (FCM) also collect demographic information when you open an account, including gender, birth date, occupation and employment status. The brokers we work with (FCM) have regulatory bodies which also require them to assess your trading experience, your approximate annual income, approximate net worth, and available risk capital, all to assess your financial position.

You directly provide to the broker the majority of information collected. You do this by completing the account application and related documentation, by placing a trade, by sending an e-mail, or by submitting information in response to a promotion or special offer. Other ways a broker may obtain information are by (1) observing your usage of the Web site, and (2) providing products and services to you.

The information  collected indirectly from you includes your Internet protocol ("IP") address, browser type, operating system, Internet service provider (ISP), time stamps, transactions placed, and banner ads you click. We do this through the use of cookies, which are small text files sent from the Web server and may be stored on your computer. Cookies help your broker to know you better by providing operational data we can use to aid your interaction with our Web site and improve its navigation and usability.

Usage of personal information
The broker you select  may use the information collected from you to verify your identity and contact information. They may also use this information to establish and set up your trading account, issue an account number and a secure password, maintain your account activity, and contact you with account information. This information helps them improve our services to you, customize your browsing experience and inform you about additional products, services or promotions that may be of interest to you.

Should you close your account with your broker, they will retain your information, but only use it to comply with regulatory requirements and to periodically contact you to offer you the opportunity to reactivate your account or participate in other valuable offers.
