dear sir or madam;

Please keep my financial data private.

Assume I don't want anyone to view my finances except where I give explicit agreement.

Don't allow them to sell my financial data without my permission.

These rules should apply to Banks, brokerages and credit-card companies because they are the financial industry. They will soon control the entire financial landscape, banking - insurance - cremations. cradle to grave without rules if you let them.

Thank you.
