Cevap
The brokerage must provide Clara with an initial and annual privacy notice due to her ongoing customer relationship, but it is only required to provide an initial privacy notice to Diego if it intends to disclose his Nonpublic Personal Information (NPI) to nonaffiliated third parties.
The GLBA creates a strict legal distinction between a 'consumer' (someone involved in an isolated transaction, like getting a quote) and a 'customer' (someone with an ongoing relationship, like a policyholder). Because Clara is a customer, the agency is obligated to provide her with an initial privacy notice and an annual notice as long as the relationship lasts. Because Diego is only a consumer, the agency is not required to provide him with any privacy notice unless it plans to share his NPI with nonaffiliated third parties.
