CFR 313.4 Initial privacy notice to consumers required.

( a ) Initial notice requirement. You must provide a clear and conspicuous notice that accurately reflects your privacy policies and practices to : ( 1 ) Customer. An individual who becomes your customer, not later than when you establish a customer relationship, except as provided in paragraph ( e ) of this section; and ( 2 ) Consumer. A consumer, before you disclose any nonpublic personal information about the consumer to any nonaffiliated third party, if you make such a disclosure other than as authorized by 313.14 and 313.15.

( b ) When initial notice to a consumer is not required. You are not required to provide an initial notice to a consumer under paragraph ( a ) of this section if : ( 1 ) You do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about the consumer to any nonaffiliated third party, other than as authorized by 313.14 and 313.15 ; and ( 2 ) You do not have a customer relationship with the consumer.

( c ) When you establish a customer relationship ( 1 ) General rule. You establish a customer relationship when you and the consumer enter into a continuing relationship. 

( 2 ) Special rule for loans. You establish a customer relationship with a consumer when you originate a loan to the consumer for personal, family, or household purposes. If you subsequently transfer the servicing rights to that loan to another financial institution, the customer relationship transfers with the servicing rights. 

( XXXX ) Examples ( i ) Examples of establishing a customer relationship. You establish a customer relationship when the consumer : ( A ) Executes the contract to obtain credit from you or purchase insurance from you; or ( B ) Executes the lease for personal property with you. 

( ii ) Examples of loan rule. You establish a customer relationship with a consumer who obtains a loan for personal, family, or household purposes when you : ( A ) Originate the loan to the consumer and retain the servicing rights; or ( B ) Purchase the servicing rights to the consumer 's loan. 

( d ) Existing customers. When an existing customer obtains a new financial product or service from you that is to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes, you satisfy the initial notice requirements of paragraph ( a ) of this section as follows : ( 1 ) You may provide a revised privacy notice, under 313.8, that covers the customer 's new financial product or service; or ( 2 ) If the initial, revised, or annual notice that you most recently provided to that customer was accurate with respect to the new financial product or service, you do not need to provide a new privacy notice under paragraph ( a ) of this section.

( e ) Exceptions to allow subsequent delivery of notice ( 1 ) General. You may provide the initial notice required by paragraph ( a ) ( 1 ) of this section within a reasonable time after you establish a customer relationship if : ( i ) Establishing the customer relationship is not at the customer 's election; or ( ii ) Providing notice not later than when you establish a customer relationship would substantially delay the customer 's transaction and customer agrees to receive the notice at a later time.

( 2 ) Examples of exceptions ( i ) Substantial delay of customer 's transaction. Providing notice not later than when you establish a customer relationship would substantially delay the customer 's transaction when you and the individual agree over the telephone to enter into a customer relationship involving prompt delivery of the financial product or service.

( ii ) No substantial delay of customer 's transaction. Providing notice not later than when you establish a customer relationship would not substantially delay the customer 's transaction when the relationship is initiated in person at your office or through other means by which the customer may view the notice, such as through a website.

( f ) Delivery. When you are required to deliver an initial privacy notice by this section, you must deliver it according to 313.9. If you use a short-form initial notice for non-customers according to 313.6 ( d ), you may deliver your privacy notice according to 313.6 ( d ) ( 3 ).

For example, if a customer opens an account on any day of year XXXX, you must provide an annual notice to that customer by XX/XX/XXXX of year XXXX. 

( b ) ( 1 ) Termination of customer relationship. You are not required to provide an annual notice to a former customer. 

( 2 ) Examples. Your customer becomes a former customer when : ( i ) In the case of a closed-end loan, the customer pays the loan in full, you charge off the loan, or you sell the loan without retaining servicing rights. 

( ii ) In the case of mortgage or vehicle loan brokering services, your customer has obtained a loan through you ( and you no longer provide any statements or notices to the customer concerning that relationship ), or has ceased using your services for such purposes.

( 2 ) Delivery of annual privacy notice after financial institution no longer meets requirements for exception. If you have been excepted from delivering an annual privacy notice pursuant to paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section and change your policies or practices in such a way that you no longer meet the requirements for that exception, you must comply with paragraph ( e ) ( 2 ) ( i ) or ( ii ) of this section, as applicable.

( i ) Changes preceded by a revised privacy notice. If you no longer meet the requirements of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section because you change your policies or practices in such a way that 313.8 requires you to provide a revised privacy notice, you must provide an annual privacy notice in accordance with the timing requirement in paragraph ( a ) of this section, treating the revised privacy notice as an initial privacy notice.

( ii ) Changes not preceded by a revised privacy notice. If you no longer meet the requirements of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section because you change your policies or practices in such a way that 313.8 does not require you to provide a revised privacy notice, you must provide an annual privacy notice within 100 days of the change in your policies or practices that causes you to no longer meet the requirement of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ).

( iii ) Examples.

( A ) You change your policies and practices in such a way that you no longer meet the requirements of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section effective XX/XX/XXXX of year XXXX.

If you were not required to provide a revised privacy notice under 313.8, you must provide an annual privacy notice by XX/XX/XXXX of year XXXX. 

( B ) You change your policies and practices in such a way that you no longer meet the requirements of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section, and so provide an annual notice to your customers.

You do not need to provide additional annual notice to your customers until such time as you no longer meet the requirements of paragraph ( e ) ( 1 ) of this section.
