We only collect information that's necessary for providing our services or required by law. You have control over most data collection through your account settings.

Your information serves specific purposes that directly benefit your experience with our platform. We process data based on legitimate business interests, contractual necessity, and your consent where required.

• Providing personalized financial analysis and business insights tailored to your industry and company size
• Maintaining and improving platform security, including fraud detection and prevention measures

Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian privacy law, you have several important rights regarding your personal information. We've made exercising these rights straightforward through your account dashboard and our support team.

To exercise any of these rights, contact our privacy team at info@virestalonex.com or use the privacy controls in your account settings. We respond to all requests within 30 days.

Data Security and Protection

We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our multi-layered approach includes both technical and administrative safeguards.

We conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. Our team receives ongoing security training to maintain the highest protection standards.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by Australian law. Different types of data have specific retention periods based on their use and legal requirements.

When you request account deletion, we begin the process immediately. Some information may be retained longer due to legal obligations, such as financial records required for tax purposes or compliance with Australian business regulations.

You can request early deletion of specific data types that aren't subject to legal retention requirements. Contact our support team to discuss your specific needs and timeline for data removal.

International Data Transfers

While our primary servers are located in Australia, some service providers may process data internationally. All international transfers comply with Australian privacy laws and include appropriate safeguards to protect your information.

We use cloud services that maintain data centers in multiple regions for reliability and performance. These providers have certified compliance with international privacy standards and maintain equivalent protection levels to Australian requirements.

Before any international data transfer, we ensure adequate protection through approved mechanisms such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or certification schemes recognized under Australian privacy law.

Our third-party relationships include payment processors, cloud infrastructure providers, and security services. Each partner undergoes regular compliance assessments to ensure they meet our privacy and security standards.
