Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, and protect the information you share with us when you visit our site or engage our services.
Last updated: June 8, 2026
Winthrop & Co. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website winthropco.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you visit our Site or use our services.
Information we collect
Information you provide. When you contact us through forms on our Site, schedule a consultation, or otherwise communicate with us, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, current firm affiliation, assets under management, and other professional details you choose to share.
Information collected automatically. When you visit our Site, we automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, time spent on pages, and unique visitor identifiers through cookies and similar tracking technologies.
Cookies and tracking. Our Site uses cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, and understand visitor behavior. Cookies fall into two categories. (1) Strictly necessary cookies enable core functionality such as form submission, visitor identification by our customer relationship management (CRM) system, and remembering your cookie preferences; these are always on. (2) Marketing and analytics cookies include the LinkedIn Insight Tag, which enables retargeting audiences and conversion measurement on LinkedIn Campaign Manager; these load only after you choose “Accept all” in our cookie consent banner. If you choose “Strictly necessary,” or if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, no LinkedIn pixel or other non-essential third-party tracker fires.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to respond to your inquiries and provide our consulting services; communicate with you about financial advisor transition opportunities; improve and optimize our Site and user experience; analyze usage trends and site performance; comply with legal obligations; and protect against fraud or unauthorized activity.
How we share your information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with service providers who assist us in operating our Site and delivering our services (such as hosting providers, email platforms, and CRM systems); broker-dealers, RIAs, or other financial firms only with your explicit written consent as part of a transition engagement; and legal authorities when required by law or to protect our rights.
Confidentiality
We understand the sensitive nature of financial advisor transitions. All inquiries and engagements are treated with strict confidentiality. We will never disclose your identity or inquiry to your current employer or any third party without your explicit written authorization.
Data security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information; opt out of certain data collection practices; request a copy of the data we hold about you; and withdraw consent for data processing. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the information provided below.
Manage your cookie preferences
You can change your choice any time by clicking “Manage Cookies” or “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the footer of any page. Either link re-opens the consent banner so you can switch between “Accept all” and “Strictly necessary.” Your selection is stored in a first-party cookie (wc-consent) for one year. Clearing your browser cookies resets the choice and the banner will appear again on your next visit.
California privacy rights (CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, disclose, and sell (we do not sell personal information); request deletion of your personal information; and not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights. To submit a request, contact us using the information below.
Third-party links
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site you visit.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
