Privacy Policy Notice
Commitment to Your Private Information
Anson Analytics is committed to safeguarding the confidential information of its clients. Anson Analytics holds all personal information provided by clients in the strictest confidence and it is the objective of the firm to protect the privacy of all clients. Except as permitted or required by law, Anson Analytics does not share confidential information about clients with nonaffiliated parties. In the event that there were to be a change in this policy, the firm will provide clients with written notice and clients will be provided an opportunity to direct Anson Analytics as to whether such disclosure is permissible.
Why We Collect, What We Collect, and How We Use Information
Financial companies choose how they share your personal information. Federal law gives consumers the right to limit some but not all sharing. Federal law also requires us to tell you how we collect, share, and protect your personal information. Please read this notice carefully to understand what we do with your personal information.
The types of personal information we collect, and share depend on the product or service you have with us. This information can include social security number, income, account balances, assets, investment experience, and transaction history.
All financial companies need to share customers’ personal information to run their everyday business. In the section below, we list the reasons financial companies can share their customers’ personal information, the reasons Anson Analytics chooses to share, and whether you can limit this sharing.

-
For our everyday business purposes such as to process your transactions, maintain your accounts(s), respond to court orders and legal investigations. We do share this information and sharing cannot be limited by the consumer.
-
Information developed as part of financial plans, analyses or investment advisory services. We do share this information and sharing cannot be limited by the consumer.
-
For our affiliates' everyday business purposes. If you invest in any AA Fund(s), we share information with our Fund(s) to oversee your investments. We do share this information and sharing cannot be limited by the consumer.
-
For non-affiliates to conduct marketing research on our behalf. We share your personal information with data-matching tools so we can identify and market to prospective clients of the firm.

You may opt out of this service at any time by calling our main number, 678-216-0795, and asking to speak with your service team. At your request, we may disclose nonpublic personal information to financial service providers, including but not limited to CPAs, mortgage brokers, or insurance companies.

Key Definitions and Trademark Information
Retention Rate is calculated by Anson Analytics using the past five full calendar years of client data rounded to the nearest whole percentage point and updated annually aligned with the March 31 Form ADV filing. This retention rate data should not be construed as a past or current endorsement of Anson Analytics by its clients or a guarantee of the results that a new client will receive.
Client Stories are shared for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to imply an all-inclusive inventory of: 1) recommendations made by Anson Analytics to its clients; nor 2) success stories facilitated by Anson Analytics. Rather, the examples represent samples we believe will assist a prospective client in making an informed decision. Further, not all clients will necessarily receive the same advice or level of service as those outlined, as AA provides customized services based upon the nature of each client’s needs.
Limitations Of Rankings and/or Recognitions: Neither rankings and/or recognitions by unaffiliated rating services, publications, media, or other organizations, nor the achievement of any designation, certification, or license should be construed by a client or prospective client as a guarantee that he/she will experience a certain level of results if Anson Analytics is engaged, or continues to be engaged, to provide investment advisory services. Rankings published by magazines, and others, generally base their selections exclusively on information prepared and/or submitted by the recognized adviser. Rankings are generally limited to participating advisers (see link as to participation data/criteria, to the extent applicable). Unless expressly indicated to the contrary, Anson Analytics did not pay a fee to be included on any such ranking. No ranking or recognition should be construed as a current or past endorsement of Anson Analytics by any of its clients. ANY
QUESTIONS: Anson Analytics’ Chief Compliance Officer (email at info@ansonanalytics.com) remains available to address any questions regarding rankings and/or recognitions, including the criteria used for any reflected ranking.
