RE:         Annual Delivery of Advisory Disclosure Documents

 

Dear Valued Investor,

 

On an annual basis Registered Investment Advisers are required to file updated disclosure documents. Since our last annual update, we have a few material changes to our Form ADV that we would like to highlight.

 

 

Please find attached a copy of our Privacy Policy. If you would like more information about our services or a full copy of our Form ADV Part 2 free of charge, please let us know via email or telephone.

 

If there are any changes in your financial situation or investment objectives, contact us at your earliest convenience to schedule a time to discuss this further. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your ongoing business and look forward to a prosperous year together.

 

Sincerely,

Damon Taylor

STRATEGIC PORTFOLIO SOLUTIONS, LLC

PRIVACY NOTICE REGARDING CLIENT PRIVACY AS REQUIRED BY REGULATION S-P & REGULATION S-AM

 

Maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients is a high priority. That is why we want you to understand how we protect your privacy when we collect and use information about you, and the steps that we take to safeguard that information. This notice is provided to you on behalf of Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC.

 

Information We Collect: In connection with providing investment products, financial advice, or other services, we obtain non-public personal information about you, including:

 

Categories of Information We Disclose: We may only disclose information that we collect in accordance with this policy. Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC does not sell customer lists and will not sell your name to telemarketers.

Categories of Parties to Whom We Disclose: We will not disclose information regarding you or your account with us, except under the following circumstances:

 

How We Use Information: Information may be used among companies that perform support services for us, such as data processors, technical systems consultants and programmers, or companies that help us market products and services to you for a number of purposes, such as:

 

Regulation S-AM: Under Regulation S-AM, a registered investment adviser is prohibited from using eligibility information that it receives from an affiliate to make a marketing solicitation unless: (1) the potential marketing use of that information has been clearly, conspicuously and concisely disclosed to the consumer; (2) the consumer has been provided a reasonable opportunity and a simple method to opt out of receiving the marketing solicitations; and (3) the consumer has not opted out.  Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC does not receive information regarding marketing eligibility from affiliates to make solicitations.

 

Our Security Policy: We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those individuals who need to know that information to provide products or services to you and perform their respective duties. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural security measures to safeguard confidential client information.

Departing Investment Adviser Representatives (“IARs”): Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC recognizes that your relationship with your IAR is important. If your IAR leaves Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC to join another firm, or elects to sell or transfer some or all of his or her business, your IAR might retain copies of your personal information so that your account can continue to be serviced or to contact you regarding your options. Subject to legal and regulatory requirements, your personal information maintained on Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC systems and those of Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC’s service providers may be shared with your new financial service provider. If you do not want your IAR to take your information should he or she leave or transfer his or her business from Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC, you have the right to opt out of such disclosure. You may opt out now or at any time in the future. If you have a joint account, Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC will treat an opt out by any joint customer as applying to all joint customers. If you wish to exercise your right to opt out under this section, please contact us at 214-446-4910 or by mail.

 

Certain states have adopted a requirement for you to approve the sharing of information in advance, otherwise known as an “opt-in” choice. If you live in an “opt-in” state (e.g., California, Massachusetts, Maine, Alaska, North Dakota or Vermont), then Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC will require your consent to share your information with unaffiliated third parties who are not servicing your account. State requirements vary and may change without notice.

 

Succession Planning: In the event that the owner(s) of Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC retire, become incapacitated or perish unexpectedly, your information would be disclosed to an unaffiliated third party for the purposes of facilitating a business succession plan. A change in control of ownership of Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC would require your consent, as dictated by your signed agreement with Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC, in order to continue providing services to you.

 

Your Right to Opt Out: Federal privacy laws give you the right to restrict some sharing of your personal financial information. These laws balance your right to privacy with Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC’s need to provide information for normal business purposes. You have the right to opt out of some information sharing with companies that are (1) Part of the same corporate group as your financial company (or affiliates); or (2) Not part of the same corporate group as your financial company (or non-affiliates). Choosing to restrict the sharing of our personal financial information will not apply to (1) Information about you to firms that help promote and market the company’s own products or products offered under a joint agreement between two financial companies; (2) Records of your transactions–such as your loan payments, credit card or debit card purchases, and checking and savings account statements–to firms that provide data processing and mailing services for your company; (3) Information about you in response to a

 

court order; and (4) Your payment history on loans and credit cards to credit bureaus. If you opt out, you limit the extent to which Strategic Portfolio Solutions, LLC can provide your personal financial information to non-affiliates.

 

Closed or Inactive Accounts: If you decide to close your account(s) or become an inactive customer, our Privacy Policy will continue to apply to you.
