Privacy Policy
Effective: October 6, 2026. This Policy consolidates our Privacy Policy of March 27, 2026 and our notice of July 16, 2026 about technology service providers.
Our Commitment to You
Long Point Wealth Management, LLC (“Long Point” or the “Advisor”) is committed to safeguarding the use of personal information of our Clients (also referred to as “you” and “your”) that we obtain as your Investment Advisor, as described here in our Privacy Policy (“Policy”).
Our relationship with you is our most important asset. We understand that you have entrusted us with your private information, and we do everything that we can to maintain that trust. Long Point (also referred to as “we,” “our,” and “us”) protects the security and confidentiality of the personal information we have and implements controls to ensure that such information is used for proper business purposes in connection with the management or servicing of our relationship with you.
Long Point does not sell your nonpublic personal information to anyone. Nor do we provide such information to others except for discrete and reasonable business purposes in connection with the servicing and management of our relationship with you, as discussed below.
Details of our approach to privacy and how your personal nonpublic information is collected and used are set forth in this Policy.
Why you need to know
Registered Investment Advisors (“RIAs”) must share some of your personal information in the course of servicing your account. Federal and State laws give you the right to limit some of this sharing and require RIAs to disclose how we collect, share, and protect your personal information.
What information do we collect from you?
- Driver’s license number
- Date of birth
- Social security or taxpayer identification number
- Assets and liabilities
- Name, address, and phone number(s)
- Income and expenses
- E-mail address(es)
- Investment activity
- Account information (including other institutions)
- Investment experience and goals
What information do we collect from other sources?
- Custody, brokerage, and advisory agreements
- Account applications and forms
- Other advisory agreements and legal documents
- Investment questionnaires and suitability documents
- Transactional information with us or others
- Other information needed to service the account
How do we protect your information?
To safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access and use, we maintain physical, procedural, and electronic security measures. These include such safeguards as secure passwords, encrypted file storage, and a secure office environment. Our technology vendors provide security and access control over personal information and have policies over the transmission of data. Our associates are trained on their responsibilities to protect Clients’ personal information.
We require third parties that assist in providing our services to you to protect the personal information they receive from us.
Technology service providers, including artificial intelligence
We use carefully governed technology, including artificial-intelligence tools, in our work for you. After conducting due diligence on the provider’s data-protection and privacy practices, we engaged Google LLC (Google Cloud Vertex AI) as a technology service provider to process information on our behalf as part of servicing your account. We did so only under a written agreement with the provider that (a) restricts the provider to using your information solely to perform the service for us, (b) prohibits the provider from using your information to train its own artificial-intelligence models, (c) requires the provider to maintain appropriate security safeguards, and (d) requires the provider to notify us in the event of a data breach. We may process your information, including personal information, using this contracted service provider, subject to those written protections.
Your information is processed in the United States under security safeguards. We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for the provider’s own purposes or for marketing. We also do not transmit sensitive personal identifiers, such as your Social Security number or financial account numbers, to these tools; a dedicated system detects and removes those identifiers before any information is sent.
All investment decisions and recommendations are made by your adviser. We do not use artificial intelligence to make investment decisions, place trades, or construct portfolios.
How do we share your information?
An RIA shares Clients’ personal information to effectively implement its services. In the section below, we list some reasons we may share your personal information.
| Basis for sharing | Do we share? | Can you limit? |
|---|---|---|
| Servicing our Clients | Yes | Yes |
| Response to Regulatory Inquiries | Yes | No |
| Marketing Purposes | No | N/A |
| Information About Former Clients | No | N/A |
Servicing our Clients
With the consent of the Client, the Advisor may share nonpublic personal information with non-affiliated third parties (such as broker-dealers, custodians, other financial institutions, technology platforms, and service providers) as necessary to provide the agreed-upon services to the Client. Sharing will occur only as consistent with applicable laws and regulations in the State in which the Client resides, as well as applicable federal regulations. Please see the additional rules for Massachusetts below. The Advisor may share personal information with the above-referenced parties for account opening, processing transactions, account maintenance, and other Client service activities.
The Advisor may share the following types of information with the above-referenced parties:
- Name, address, and phone number(s)
- Email address(es)
- Driver’s license number
- Social security or taxpayer identification number
- Date of birth
- Assets and liabilities
- Income and expenses
- Investment activity
- Investment experience and goals
The Client may also request that the Advisor share nonpublic personal information with other individuals and businesses. Prior to such sharing, the Advisor will require an executed Information Sharing Authorization from the Client for each authorized party. The Client may rescind these authorizations at any time.
The Client may limit sharing of the above-referenced information. However, limiting the sharing of this information could also limit the Advisor’s ability to perform the services outlined in the Client’s agreement with the Advisor.
Response to Regulatory Inquiries
The Advisor may be required by securities regulators to provide nonpublic personal information in connection with audits and other inquiries.
Marketing Purposes
Long Point does not disclose and does not intend to disclose personal information with non-affiliated third parties to offer you services. Certain laws may give us the right to share your personal information with financial institutions where you are a customer and where Long Point or the client has a formal agreement with the financial institution. We will only share information for purposes of servicing your accounts, not for marketing purposes.
Information About Former Clients
Long Point does not disclose, and does not intend to disclose, nonpublic personal information to non-affiliated third parties with respect to persons who are no longer our Clients, except for inquiries by securities regulators as noted above.
Massachusetts
In response to Massachusetts law, the Client must “opt-in” to share nonpublic personal information with non-affiliated third parties before any personal information is disclosed. Client opt-in is obtained through the Client’s execution of authorization forms provided by the third parties, by executing an Information Sharing Authorization Form, or by other written consent by the Client, as appropriate and consistent with applicable laws and regulations.
Changes to our Privacy Policy
We will send you a copy of this Policy annually for as long as you maintain an ongoing relationship with us.
Periodically we may revise this Policy and will provide you with a revised Policy if the changes materially alter the previous Privacy Policy. We will not, however, revise our Privacy Policy to permit the sharing of nonpublic personal information other than as described in this notice unless we first notify you and provide you with an opportunity to prevent the information sharing.

You may ask questions or voice any concerns, as well as obtain a copy of our current Privacy Policy by contacting us at (508) 258-9195 or mark@longpointwm.com.
