This file will contain personal information related to me that will be gathered in order to assess my financial situation, offer me products and services that may be of interest and benefit to me, and assist me with the ongoing services, changes or benefits and claims. This personal information may include records of meetings and phone calls, and instructions that I give in regards to the products and services that I have purchased or wish to purchase or consider. I also authorize and direct my advisor to hold additional personal information or documents (originals or copies) containing my personal information provided by me or with my authorization. “Additional” personal information is personal information that extends beyond what is required to be kept as outlined in the first paragraph.

I understand, acknowledge, and agree that any representative life insurance company will not be in any way responsible for any documents I deposit with my advisor, and will not be liable for any loss, use, disclosure, safekeeping, or return of such documents. This does not apply, however, to any document or information that is requested by a life insurance company and given by me to my advisor for immediate transfer to the head or administrative offices of a life insurance company.
