The Law

Privacy protection is a matter of law. Each of us is required by federal law - and increasingly by state and local mandates - to protect certain types of information. Secure, on-site document destruction allows you to be compliant with these laws.

At the federal level, three important laws require specific safeguards to ensure confidentiality.

• Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
• Gramm Leach Bliley Act, also known as the Financial Modernization Act of 1999
• The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACTA)

All three laws provide for stiff penalties for companies found to be in violation.

Prevent identity theft, shred what's left.
