Your information serves multiple purposes within our financial platform. We use this data to provide personalized financial services, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain the security of your accounts.

  • Processing financial transactions and maintaining accurate account records

We share your information only in specific circumstances and with trusted partners who help us provide our services. We never sell your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Information may be shared with:

  • Financial institutions and payment processors to facilitate transactions
  • Credit bureaus and verification services for identity confirmation

All third parties we work with are required to maintain strict confidentiality and use your information solely for the purposes we specify. We ensure appropriate contractual protections are in place before sharing any data.

Your Privacy Rights

Under Canadian privacy laws, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), you have significant rights regarding your personal information.

Your Rights Include:

  • Access to your personal information and details about how it's used
  • Correction of inaccurate or incomplete information in your records
  • Withdrawal of consent for certain types of data processing
  • Request for deletion of your information where legally permissible
  • Portability of your data to other service providers

To exercise any of these rights, contact our Privacy Officer using the information provided below. We will respond to your request within 30 days and may require identity verification to protect your information.

Data Security and Protection

We employ comprehensive security measures to protect your personal and financial information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or destruction.

Encryption

All data transmission and storage uses industry-standard encryption protocols

Access Controls

Strict employee access limitations and multi-factor authentication requirements

Monitoring

Continuous monitoring systems to detect and respond to security threats

Regular Audits

Independent security assessments and compliance audits conducted annually

Despite our security measures, no system is completely immune to threats. We maintain incident response procedures and will notify you promptly of any security breaches that may affect your information, as required by law.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your information for different periods depending on the type of data and legal requirements. Financial records must be maintained longer than general account information due to regulatory obligations.

Log files and analytics data typically deleted after one year

After retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymize your information using industry-standard data destruction methods. You may request early deletion of certain information, subject to legal and regulatory constraints.

International Data Transfers

While we primarily store data within Canada, some information may be processed by service providers in other countries with adequate privacy protections. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for any international transfers.

When data is transferred outside Canada, we implement additional protection measures including contractual privacy clauses, certification requirements, and ongoing monitoring of foreign privacy laws that may affect your information.

You have the right to know about international transfers affecting your data and can contact us for specific details about where your information is processed and the protections in place.

Cookies and Online Tracking

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, remember your preferences, and analyze how our services are used. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.

Types of cookies we use include essential cookies for platform functionality, performance cookies for analytics, and preference cookies to remember your settings. We do not use cookies for targeted advertising or share cookie data with advertising networks.

Third-party analytics providers may also set cookies to help us understand website usage patterns. These providers are bound by strict data processing agreements and cannot use your information for their own purposes.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or service offerings. Significant changes will be communicated through email notifications and prominent notices on our platform.

Minor updates that don't materially affect your privacy rights may be posted directly to this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information.
