We will notify you of any legal disclosure requests unless prohibited by law or court order. Your privacy rights remain important to us even in these circumstances.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your personal information may be transferred to the new entity. We will provide advance notice and ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected under the same standards outlined in this policy.

You have significant control over your personal information and how we use it. We provide multiple ways for you to exercise these rights and manage your privacy preferences.

You control what types of communications you receive from us. Manage your preferences for educational newsletters, course announcements, promotional offers, and platform updates through your account settings or by using the unsubscribe links in our emails.

Cookie and Tracking Controls

Your browser settings allow you to control cookies and tracking technologies. You can block or delete cookies, though this may affect some website functionality. We respect "Do Not Track" signals and provide clear information about how tracking technologies work on our platform.

Data Security and Protection

Protecting your personal information is one of our highest priorities. We employ multiple layers of security measures to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Technical Security Measures

  • End-to-end encryption for all data transmission and storage
  • Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificates for website communications
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
  • Multi-factor authentication options for account access
  • Automated threat detection and response systems
  • Regular security updates and patch management

Access Controls and Monitoring

We restrict access to personal information to employees and contractors who need it to perform their job functions. All team members receive privacy training and agree to strict confidentiality agreements. We monitor access logs and conduct regular reviews of data handling practices.

In the unlikely event of a security breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you within 72 hours and provide detailed information about the incident and steps we're taking to resolve it.

Data Storage and Backup

Your data is stored on secure servers in Canada with encrypted backups maintained in geographically separate locations. We use reputable cloud service providers who meet or exceed industry security standards and maintain appropriate certifications.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Different types of information have different retention periods based on their purpose and legal requirements.

Account Information

Your account information, including profile data and learning progress, is retained for as long as your account remains active. After account closure, we retain essential information for up to seven years to comply with financial record-keeping requirements and tax obligations.

Communication and Marketing Data

  • Email communications: Retained for 3 years after last interaction
  • Customer support records: Kept for 5 years for quality assurance
  • Marketing preferences: Maintained until you opt out or close your account
  • Website analytics: Aggregated data retained indefinitely, personal identifiers removed after 2 years

Automatic Deletion Process

We have automated systems that regularly review and delete information that has exceeded its retention period. You don't need to take any action for routine data deletion, though you can always request earlier deletion of specific information or your entire account.

Some information may be retained in anonymized form for research and platform improvement purposes. This anonymized data cannot be linked back to your individual identity.

International Data Transfers

While Inforyn primarily operates in Canada, we may transfer your personal information to other countries where our service providers are located. We ensure that all international transfers meet appropriate privacy protection standards.

Transfer Safeguards

When transferring data internationally, we use approved transfer mechanisms such as Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions, or certification schemes. Our service providers must demonstrate appropriate safeguards for protecting personal information regardless of their location.

  • Contractual protections requiring equivalent privacy standards
  • Regular audits of international service providers
  • Data minimization to reduce information subject to transfer
  • Encryption requirements for data in transit and at rest

Your Rights Regarding International Transfers

You have the right to know when your data is transferred internationally and to object to such transfers in certain circumstances. Contact us if you have specific concerns about international data transfers or would like more information about the safeguards we have in place.

Children's Privacy

Inforyn's services are designed for adults and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 years of age. Our financial education content is intended for mature audiences who can make informed decisions about their financial education.

Age Verification

We ask users to confirm they are at least 16 years old when creating an account. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from someone under 16, we will take immediate steps to delete that information and close the account.

Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided personal information to us should contact us immediately. We will verify the relationship and promptly delete any inappropriate data collection.

Educational Resources for Families

While our platform is not designed for children, we encourage parents to teach financial literacy to their kids. We provide general educational resources that parents can use to guide age-appropriate financial discussions with their children.
