Security and Privacy

General

Marquis (hereinafter referred to as “the Company”) understands the importance of maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of its Clients’ personal data. In the act of entrusting the Company with this data, Marquis assures our Clients of the Company’s commitment to keep such information confidential. The Company has taken measurable steps to safeguard the confidentiality and security of the Clients’ personal data. The Company shall not disclose any of its Clients’ confidential information to a third party unless made necessary to do so by a regulatory authority. Such disclosure shall occur on a ‘need-to-know’ basis unless otherwise instructed by the regulatory authority, in which case the Company shall expressly inform the third party regarding the confidential nature of the information.

All private data is regarded as confidential and will be shared only within the Company by its employees and affiliates for business purposes only. The information may be disclosed to third parties such as the Company Partners and Affiliates for business purposes only such as (but not exclusive to) servicing Client accounts and informing Clients about new products and services. Our Company’s Partners and Affiliates will maintain the confidentiality of your personal data to the same extent the Company does in accordance with the policy. Information may also be imparted to non-affiliated companies providing professional, legal and accounting services. Non-affiliated companies which assist the Company in providing services to traders are required to maintain the privacy of such data and to use personal information only in the course of providing such services for the purposes that the Company dictates and within the scope of the applicable law.

The Company will not sell or give away Clients’ names, phone numbers, email addresses, mailing addresses or any other such personal data to any third parties. The Company will use a range of security measures to protect Clients’ personal data from unauthorized users. The policy sets out the methods and procedures used by the Company to collect, use and manage personal information from its visitors and potential and active clients through the Company’s website.
