Wealth Management Advice, Products & Services Trust Services About the Trust Services Division Our Commitment to Privacy Our Commitment to Privacy At Raymond James Trust (Canada) (RJ Trust Canada) and Raymond James Trust (Québec) Ltd. (RJ Trust Québec)”), we recognize how important personal privacy is to you. To provide the highest possible level of protection to you, we maintain standards designed to protect your privacy and prevent any misuse of your personal information. We have adopted the following principles and procedures which outline how we gather, protect and use personal information, and how we will hold ourselves accessible and accountable to you. What is Personal Information? "Personal information" is any information that identifies you as an individual and includes information with respect to your name, address, age, gender, income, marital status, finances, employment, trading history and website use information, together with your personal references and identification numbers (such as a social insurance number). Why is Personal Information Collected? We use personal information to protect and administer your accounts, records and funds; to comply with certain laws, regulations and regulatory policies; to help us improve our products and services offered to you; and to understand your financial needs. The information we ask for depends on the products or services you request and in most cases is required by law or Canadian regulatory bodies. For example, a social insurance number might be required for products that earn investment income, in order to comply with the Canada Revenue Agency's income reporting requirements. With your consent, we may also share your personal information where not prohibited by law, within the Raymond James group of companies, for the purposes of referring investment services, life insurance, disability insurance, annuities and other specific insurance products and services to you. We limit the collection of your personal information and its disclosure to third parties to what is necessary to offer you the services requested or for the other reasons for which you have provided consent (such as receiving information on other products or services). How Do We Collect Personal Information About You? We collect most of our information directly from you, primarily through our account opening forms which you complete with a Trust Officer. With your consent, we may also obtain personal information about you from third parties such as your Raymond James Ltd. Investment Advisor. What Are Your Options? It is always your choice whether or not to provide your personal information or to consent to our obtaining personal information about you from third parties. You may refuse or withdraw your consent at any time. However, if you choose not to provide requested personal information or consents, we may not be able to provide certain or any products or services to you as we could be in breach of our legal and regulatory obligations. To clarify any questions you may have about providing personal information, please feel free to contact a Trust Officer or the RJ Trust Canada and RJ Trust Québec Privacy Officer at the contacts set out below. We will be pleased to explain your options and any consequences of refusing or withdrawing your consent.

In certain circumstances, disclosing information to a third party may be required to help complete a transaction initiated by you or the disclosure is otherwise lawfully permitted or required. For instance, we may disclose information to legal authorities to protect against fraud, money laundering or other criminal activity. We may also, from time to time, be requested to disclose information to regulators to which we are subject to for the purposes of an audit or investigation relating to specific accounts or our business generally. Sometimes it is necessary to provide personal information about you to a party outside our affiliated companies, such as to a vendor or service company that we hire to do our data processing or prepare your account statements or to provide support or services for one or more of our products. We will seek agreement from these vendors and service companies to safeguard confidential information about you and your products and services with us.

If a service provider or its systems server is located in a foreign jurisdiction, it is bound by the laws of that jurisdiction and may disclose your personal information under those laws.
