Our privacy statement covers five main areas: Notice, Choice, Access & Accuracy, Onward Transfer, and Security. Please keep in mind that HKIB’s privacy practices may vary as required by local laws and policies.

1. Notice

HKIB provides this Online Privacy Statement to make you aware of our privacy practices and of the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and from the bottom of every hkib.org.hk Web pages.

What information we collect

On some HKIB Web pages, you can make requests and register to receive materials.

How we use the information

We use your information to help us better understand your needs and provide you with better service. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on service and benefits, and to personalize our Web sites for you. From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with marketing information we think would be of particular interest. At a minimum, we will always give you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving such contact. Please follow the opt-out directions given below in the “Choice” section of this document.
