Privacy Policy

At carivonthalexe, we collect information to provide you with effective cost management tools and personalised financial insights. The data we gather falls into several categories, each serving specific purposes to enhance your experience with our platform.

We may also receive information from third-party services when you connect external financial accounts or use social media features. All data collection occurs with your explicit consent, and you maintain control over what information you share with us.

Your information serves multiple purposes within our cost management platform. We believe in transparency about how your data contributes to the services you receive from carivonthalexe.

• Service Delivery: Processing your financial data to generate spending analysis, budget recommendations, and cost-saving opportunities tailored to your financial situation.
• Account Management: Maintaining your account, processing payments, and providing customer support when you need assistance with our platform.
• Communication: Sending you important account updates, security notifications, and educational content about cost management strategies.
• Platform Improvement: Analysing usage patterns to enhance our features, develop new tools, and fix technical issues to improve overall user experience.
• Security Monitoring: Detecting and preventing fraud, unauthorized access, and other security threats to protect your account and personal information.
• Legal Compliance: Meeting regulatory requirements, responding to lawful requests from authorities, and fulfilling our obligations under Australian law.

We also use aggregated, anonymised data to understand market trends and improve our cost management algorithms. This helps us provide better recommendations to all users while protecting individual privacy. Your personal information is never sold to third parties for marketing purposes.

Under Australian privacy law, you have several rights regarding your personal information. We're committed to helping you exercise these rights and maintain control over your data.

To exercise any of these rights, contact our privacy team using the information provided at the end of this policy. We may request additional information to verify your identity before processing requests involving sensitive personal data.

If you're not satisfied with how we handle your privacy concerns, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). We encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve any issues directly.

Protecting your personal information is fundamental to our operations. We implement comprehensive security measures designed to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

• Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and our servers uses industry-standard TLS encryption. Personal information is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption protocols.
• Access Controls: Strict employee access controls ensure only authorized personnel can access personal information, and only when necessary for legitimate business purposes.
• Regular Audits: We conduct regular security assessments, penetration testing, and compliance audits to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
• Secure Infrastructure: Our servers are housed in certified data centers with 24/7 monitoring, backup power systems, and advanced physical security measures.
• Incident Response: We maintain detailed incident response procedures to quickly address any potential security breaches and notify affected users as required by law.

When personal information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it using industry-standard data destruction methods. Backup copies are subject to the same retention periods and are securely destroyed according to our data lifecycle management policies.

Despite our security measures, no system can guarantee complete protection. If you become aware of any potential security issues with your account, please contact us immediately so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

carivonthalexe's cost management services are designed for adults who can make informed financial decisions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 years of age without parental consent.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 18 without proper consent, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided personal information to us should contact our privacy team immediately.

For users between 13 and 18 years of age, we may provide services with appropriate parental or guardian consent and involvement. Such arrangements include additional privacy protections and parental notification requirements.

Continued use of our platform after policy updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you disagree with changes, you may close your account and request data deletion, subject to applicable retention requirements.
