Subject: EGRPRA
The Privacy Act requires Financial Institutions to send out an annual
notice each year.
I feel our customers are not reading these because they are overwhelmed
with mailings
from all their financial institutions.
An initial notice at the time of account opening should be all that
is required. If they want to
opt out, the time to do it is at the account opening or if we have
a change in our policy we should
be required to send out a notice. The annual notice is redundant.
It’s more junk mail for the
consumer.
