Security and Privacy
Our Values
At Anglo Far-East, your privacy is our highest concern.
We believe that privacy and the right to private property go hand in hand.
The priority we place on your privacy is reflected in the way that AFE has carefully evaluated every step in our process from a perspective of your protection.
Security & Privacy with your AFE Account
Encrypted Communications
When applying for an AFE Bullion Account, your information is passed over secure SSL encryption during the application process.
At all times, buy, sell, and remittance instructions are always lodged by secure encrypted communications with our Treasury department.
Human Resources
On a human resources level, AFE carefully screens, selects, and trains its personnel to appreciate, understand, and take personal responsibility for the privacy integrity of AFE’s clients.
Human resource policies in place segregate information internally, and a clients personal information remains sealed and cannot be accessed without the authority of the Director of Treasury.
Account Management
Once your personal information is reviewed and approved, your account is assigned an account number. From this point forward your personal information is sealed and kept physically segregated from servers with contact with internet, and your account is referred to by account number only.
Your personal information such as name or address will never appear on any account statement. All statements are referred to by account number only.
Information Technology Security
AFE servers are also further segregated in jurisdictions with strong personal privacy law.
Client information is stored off the net, with physical information security protocols in place ensuring physical removal of data via removable drives from the business premises on a daily basis.
Lowest Jurisdictional Risk
Finally, when considering jurisdictions, AFE carefully evaluated available choices and has chosen jurisdictions we feel are most likely to provide the very best defense in terms of personal privacy.
