WHAT WE DO

How does Voya protect my personal information?

To protect your personal information from unauthorized access and use, we use
security measures that comply with state and federal law. These measures include
computer safeguards and secured files and buildings.

How does Voya collect my personal information?

We collect your personal information, for example, when you:

 * Tell us about your investment or retirement portfolio

We also collect your personal information from others, such as credit bureaus,
affiliates or other companies.

Why can’t I limit all sharing?

Federal law gives you the right to limit only:

 * Sharing for affiliates’ everyday business purposes – information about your
   creditworthiness
 * Affiliates from using your information to market to you
 * Sharing for nonaffiliates to market to you

State laws and individual companies may give you additional rights to limit
sharing. See below for more on your rights under state law.

else?

Your choices will apply to everyone on your account.
