PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy describes how Dove Investment Research & Management, Inc. (“Dove Investments,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information through doveinvestments.com (the “Website”). It applies to information collected through the Website and to messages you send us from it.

If you are a client, information about you and your accounts is also governed by the privacy notices you receive from Dove Investment Research & Management, Inc. and from LPL Financial under SEC Regulation S-P and other applicable law. If anything in this policy conflicts with those notices for client account information, those notices control. LPL Financial is a separate company with its own privacy practices.

Information you give us

When you contact us, ask to receive our newsletter, or schedule a meeting, you may give us:

• your name, email address, and phone number;
• the contents of your message, including anything you choose to tell us about your finances; and
• meeting details you enter when you book an appointment.

Our contact and newsletter forms do not send information to a server. Submitting either form opens a pre-addressed message in your own email app, and we receive only what you choose to send.

Information collected automatically

We do not use analytics, advertising cookies, or tracking pixels, and the Website does not set cookies. Like any website, the service that hosts it automatically receives technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages requested, and the date and time. This information is used to deliver, secure, and troubleshoot the Website.

We use the information described above to:

• respond to your questions and requests;
• schedule and hold meetings with you;
• send newsletters and updates you ask to receive;
• provide services to you if you become a client;
• operate, maintain, and protect the Website; and
• meet our legal and regulatory obligations, including supervision and recordkeeping requirements that apply to investment advisers and broker-dealers.

We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it only as follows:

• LPL Financial. Our financial professionals are registered representatives of LPL Financial, which supervises and archives their business communications as securities regulations require.
• Service providers that host our Website and email or provide scheduling, who may use the information only to provide services to us.
• Regulators and legal process. With the SEC, FINRA, state regulators, or others when required by law, regulation, subpoena, or court order.
• Protection. When needed to prevent fraud, protect the security of the Website, or protect the rights, property, or safety of our clients, our firm, or others.
• Business transfers. As part of a merger, sale, or succession of our practice, subject to applicable law and your client privacy notices.
• With your consent or at your direction.

We do not track visitors over time and across third-party websites, and we do not allow third parties to do so on our Website for advertising. Because we do not engage in that kind of tracking, the Website does not change its behavior in response to browser “Do Not Track” signals or similar mechanisms such as Global Privacy Control.

The third-party services described below may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use them, under their own privacy policies.

Some features of the Website are provided by other companies:

• Videos are hosted on YouTube (Google). Video thumbnails load from YouTube's servers, and the player loads only when you choose to play a video.
• Maps on our offices page are provided by Mapbox, which receives your IP address and device information to display the map.
• Scheduling is provided by OnceHub. The scheduler loads only when you open it, and OnceHub collects the details you enter to book a meeting and shares them with us.
• Client portals (LPL Financial AccountView, Guided Wealth Portfolios, and DovEnvision) and other linked websites are operated by others.

These companies' own privacy policies govern the information they collect. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of websites we link to.

Securities regulations require us and LPL Financial to review and keep business communications, including emails and messages you send through the Website, generally for six years or longer. Because of these requirements, we may be unable to delete a message after we receive it.

Please do not send account numbers, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive information through the Website or by email. We cannot accept trade orders, fund transfers, or other account instructions through the Website, by email, or by voicemail.

You can stop receiving our newsletter or other marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us. We process unsubscribe requests within ten business days.

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website or email transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the security of information you send us.

We keep personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy and for as long as required by law, including the recordkeeping periods that apply to investment advisers and broker-dealers.

Reviewing and correcting your information. You may ask to review, correct, or update personal information you submitted through the Website, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us using the details below. We will respond within 45 days. We may need to verify your identity, and we will keep information when the law requires it, including the recordkeeping rules described above. We will not treat you differently for making a request.

“Shine the Light.” California Civil Code §1798.83 lets California residents ask which personal information a business shared with third parties for their own direct marketing. We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

Client financial information. We do not share nonpublic personal information about California consumers with nonaffiliated third parties except as permitted by law, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the California Financial Information Privacy Act. Your client privacy notice describes these practices and your choices.

The Website is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it unless the law requires us to keep it.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated policy on this page and change the effective date at the top. If we make material changes to how we collect or use personal information, we will also note the change prominently on this page before it takes effect.
