firantovexo Financial Analysis Pty Ltd ("we," "us," or "firantovexo") is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use our financial analysis services and website.

We operate under Australian Privacy Laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy applies to all personal information we collect about you, whether you're a client, prospective client, or visitor to our website.

By using our services or website, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

3. How We Use Your Information

Your information helps us deliver quality financial analysis services and maintain professional relationships. We use your data for several specific purposes:

  • Providing financial analysis services and industry insights tailored to your needs
  • Communicating with you about our services, updates, and relevant market information
  • Improving our services based on your feedback and usage patterns
  • Meeting our legal and regulatory obligations under Australian financial services requirements
  • Protecting our business and clients from fraud or unauthorized access
  • Conducting internal research to better understand industry trends and client needs

We only use your information for the purposes stated in this policy or as otherwise authorized by you. We won't use your personal information for direct marketing without your explicit consent.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We respect the confidentiality of your information and limit sharing to specific circumstances necessary for our business operations and legal compliance.

When We May Share Information

  • With trusted service providers who help us operate our business (cloud hosting, IT support, professional services)
  • When required by Australian law or legal process, including court orders or regulatory requests
  • With your explicit consent for specific purposes you've approved
  • To protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our clients or the public
  • In connection with a business merger, acquisition, or sale, subject to confidentiality agreements

We never sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. All service providers who access your information are bound by confidentiality agreements and must handle your data according to Australian privacy standards.

5. Data Security and Protection

Our Security Measures

Technical Safeguards

SSL encryption for data transmission, secure cloud storage, regular security updates, and access controls to protect your information.

Physical Security

Secure office facilities, locked filing systems for physical documents, and restricted access to areas containing sensitive information.

Administrative Controls

Staff training on privacy requirements, confidentiality agreements, and regular review of our security practices and procedures.

Monitoring

Regular security audits, monitoring for unauthorized access attempts, and prompt response procedures for any security incidents.

While we implement strong security measures, no system is completely secure. We encourage you to protect your own information by using strong passwords and keeping your account details confidential.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your information only as long as necessary to provide our services and meet our legal obligations. Our retention periods vary based on the type of information and our relationship with you.

Retention Schedule

Active Client Information

Retained during the service relationship and for 7 years after completion, as required by Australian financial services regulations.

Inquiry and Contact Information

Kept for 2 years from last contact to maintain continuity if you re-engage our services.

Website Usage Data

Anonymized after 12 months and aggregated for analytical purposes only.

Financial Analysis Records

Maintained for 7 years as required by professional standards and potential audit requirements.

When retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymize your information unless we have a legitimate reason to retain it longer, such as ongoing legal obligations.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian Privacy Law, You Have the Right To:

Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, subject to certain exceptions under privacy law.

Ask us to correct any personal information about you that is incomplete, inaccurate, or out-of-date.

8. International Data Transfers

Your information is primarily stored and processed within Australia. However, some of our service providers may be located overseas, particularly for cloud hosting and IT support services.

When we transfer your information overseas, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:

  • Using service providers in countries with adequate privacy protections recognized under Australian law
  • Implementing contractual protections that require overseas recipients to handle your information according to Australian privacy standards
  • Conducting due diligence on the privacy practices of overseas service providers

We currently use cloud services that may store data in secure facilities in the United States and Singapore, both of which have robust privacy protections.
