To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event shall we, our affiliates, or our and their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, or licensors have any responsibility of any kind or be liable to you or any third party for any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses that have arisen or arise directly or indirectly out of, or that relate directly or indirectly to, the Website, including, without limitation (a) your access to or use of the Website or any reliance by you on the Website, or inability to access the Website, (b) any information provided through the Website, including, but not limited to, the reliability, accuracy, completeness, or timeliness thereof, (c) any products or services provided through the Website, (d) any delays or errors in the transmission or delivery of any information or any part of the Website, or (e) the interception or use by third parties of any information you provide to us.

Business Continuity Plan

We are committed to protecting the interests of its clients in the event of a business disruption. This Business Continuity Plan (the “Plan“ or the “BCP“) summary details how AIA Securities will respond to events that significantly disrupt its business.

Our BCP addresses all areas affected by a business disruption of any type: data backup and recovery, financial and operational systems and assessments, alternative communications with clients, employees and regulators, as well as critical suppliers and banks, and alternate physical location of employees if necessary. The Plan is designed to enable us to recover and restore business operations as quickly as possible, safeguard employees and property, protect our books and records, and assure clients prompt service through alternative offices if we are unable to continue its business locally.

In the event of a disaster in one of our regional offices or geographical areas, there should be minimal disruption in service due to designed redundancies for AIA Securities' systems. Data and/or system recovery will begin in a timely manner given the event(s) causing the significant business disruption. All critical financial application and data files are replicated between multiple locations. In the event of a significant business disruption, we plan to begin recovery immediately and notify clients how to contact us through our Website (www.aiasecure.com).

In the event of a disruption to our primary data center, we will restore mission-critical operations within 24 hours through our alternative disaster recovery site. Other non-critical functions will be restored within 5 to 31 days at the disaster recovery site using backup copies stored at the disaster recovery site.

If you have questions regarding our Business Continuity Plan, you may contact us through the Website. The Plan is subject to change without notice. In the event that the Business Continuity Plan summary is modified, the updated summary document will be available at www.aiasecure.com under Terms of Use.
