To better service your accounts and process transactions or services you’ve requested,
we may share non-public personal information with other companies within Franklin Templeton Investments.
From time to time we may also need to send you information about products/services offered by other Franklin

We will only share non-public personal information with outside parties in the limited circumstances permitted by law.
Below are some examples of third parties to whom we may disclose non-public personal information. While these examples
do not cover every situation permitted under the law, we hope they help you understand how your information may be shared.
We may share non-public customer information:

With companies that work on our behalf to service your accounts, or to provide services or process transactions you’ve requested.
For example, we may use companies to assist us with mailing statements, processing checks, or providing online transaction or
