Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act: The Safeguards Rule

Overview The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Safeguard Rule requires financial institutions to have a security plan to protect the confidential integrity of personal consumer information. Gramm-Leach-Bliley is a Congressional Act that prohibits an institution that provides financial products or services from sharing a customer's "nonpublic personal information" with non-affiliated third parties unless the institution first discloses its privacy policy to consumers and allows them to "opt out' of that disclosure.
