In Wyoming, trust instruments and beneficiary identities are protected from the public record. This policy should reflect that Gonen Corp acts as a fortress for shareholder data.
Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 28, 2026
Entity: Gonen Statutory Trust Corp Financial Center (Wyoming)
At Gonen Corp, we recognize that our five-decade legacy is built on trust. As we move into the digital crowdfunding era via the Gonen Funds Exchange, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data privacy, leveraged by the unique statutory protections of the State of Wyoming.
1. The Wyoming Privacy Advantage
As a Wyoming Statutory Trust, your investment with us enjoys a level of confidentiality not available in most other jurisdictions:
- Non-Public Filings: Under Wyo. Stat. § 4-10-205, trust instruments, inventories, and beneficiary identities are not part of the public record.
- Sealed Records: Wyoming law provides for the automatic sealing of trust records in judicial proceedings, ensuring your financial involvement remains private.
2. Information We Collect
To comply with the JOBS Act and federal financial regulations (KYC/AML), we must collect:
- Identity Information: Full name, date of birth, and Social Security Number or Tax ID.
- Contact Information: Email, physical address, and phone number.
- Financial Data: Bank account details for distributions, investment history, and “non-accelerated” investor status verification as required by Regulation Crowdfunding.
3. How We Use Your Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Your data is used exclusively to:
- Facilitate your participation in real estate and business ventures.
- Process capital calls and dividend distributions.
- Distribute mandated tax documents (K-1s/1099s).
- Provide semi-annually shareholder updates and “Porthole” access.
4. Data Security & Encryption
Your information is stored using bank-grade encryption. Access is restricted to essential Gonen Corp personnel and our Wyoming-qualified trustees. We employ multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all shareholder portal logins to prevent unauthorized access to your portfolio.
5. Third-Party Disclosure
We only share information with third parties when legally mandated or functionally necessary:
- Regulators: Reporting to the SEC or Wyoming Division of Banking as required by law.
- Service Providers: Escrow agents or transfer agents necessary to finalize your crowdfunding transaction.
6. Your Rights
Under the Gonen Statutory Trust framework, you have the right to:
- Review the personal data we hold about you.
- Request corrections to any inaccuracies.
- Receive a copy of the Trust’s annual privacy notice.
