Collection of Personal Information
Wisconsin law does not appear to have any specific requirements for collecting personal information from customers. However, if you collect nonpublic personal financial information from customers, you must provide an annual privacy notice to customers that accurately reflects your privacy policies and practices with regard to nonpublic personal financial information not less than annually during the continuation of the customer relationship [1.1].
Disclosure of Personal Information
If you disclose nonpublic personal financial information about a consumer to a nonaffiliated third party, you must comply with certain conditions, including providing the consumer with an initial notice and opt-out notice, giving the consumer a reasonable opportunity to opt-out, and obtaining the consumer’s authorization if disclosing nonpublic personal health information [1.6][1.7]. However, there are exceptions to the opt-out requirements for disclosure of nonpublic personal financial information for service providers and joint marketing [1.4].
Exceptions to Notice and Opt-Out Requirements
There are exceptions to the notice and opt-out requirements for disclosure of nonpublic personal financial information. If you receive nonpublic personal financial information from a nonaffiliated financial institution under an exception in s. Ins 25.55 or 25.60, you may use or disclose that information only under certain conditions [1.5].
