Private Ocean’s website is limited to the dissemination of general information pertaining to its advisory services, together with access to additional investment-related information, publications, and links.  Accordingly, the publication of Private Ocean’s website on the Internet should not be construed by any consumer and/or prospective client as Private Ocean’s solicitation to effect, or attempt to effect transactions in securities, or the rendering of personalized investment advice for compensation, over the Internet.  Any subsequent, direct communication by Private Ocean with a prospective client shall be conducted by a representative that is either registered or qualifies for an exemption or exclusion from registration in the state where the prospective client resides.

Certain portions of Private Ocean’s website (i.e. newsletters, articles, commentaries, etc.) may contain a discussion of, and/or provide access to, Private Ocean’s (and those of other investment and non-investment professionals) positions and/or recommendations as of a specific prior date.  Due to various factors, including changing market conditions, such discussion may no longer be reflective of current position(s) and/or recommendation(s).  Moreover, no client or prospective client should assume that any such discussion serves as the receipt of, or a substitute for, personalized advice from Private Ocean, or from any other investment professional.
