We gather personal information so we can better develop our relationship with you. Occasionally, we seek your comments on our products and services. These comments allow us to determine which products and services you should be made aware of based on your specific needs.

We will communicate with you via e-mail or other online delivery devices only if you agree to receive those communications. Those who believe they are receiving our communications in error or no longer desire to receive them, should inform us and we will remove those clients' names from our mailing lists by simply sending an e-mail to us. Hennessy Investments will be cautious in the use of e-mail and paper mail to communicate with you.
