| Intro Privacy Notices Return to index of stories... |
If you have a credit card, a bank account or an insurance policy, then you've probably received a notice in the mail in recent months about your privacy rights. And if you're like most people, you haven't understood what it said, or you just threw it out. But if you do that, you may also be tossing away your right to control private financial information that you have shared with your bank, mortgage company, or other financial institution. Producer Richard Ager has the story. |
| Tag Privacy Return to index of stories... |
Privacy notices must be sent out every year. If you do receive a privacy notice, you have 30 days to reply. And one final note - you do not need to wait for a privacy notice. You can contact your bank, credit card company, or other financial institution any time and request to opt-out of sharing your personal financial information. |
