How We Use Your Information

Your information helps us deliver personalized investment analysis and educational content tailored to your financial goals. We use this data to create custom investment strategies, send relevant market updates, and improve our platform's functionality.

We may use your information to communicate important updates about your account, changes to our services, or educational content that aligns with your investment interests. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time while still receiving essential account-related messages.

Data Protection and Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal and financial information. Our systems use advanced encryption protocols, secure servers, and regular security audits to safeguard your data against unauthorized access.

All financial data is encrypted both in transit and at rest. We work with trusted third-party security providers to ensure our infrastructure meets the highest standards for financial services platforms. Our team receives regular training on data protection best practices.

• 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmission
• Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
• Restricted access to personal data on a need-to-know basis
• Secure data centers with physical and digital protection
• Regular backups with encrypted storage solutions

Information Sharing and Third Parties

We only share your information with trusted partners who help us provide our investment analysis services. This includes payment processors, email service providers, and analytics platforms that help us understand how to better serve our users.

Any third-party service providers we work with are required to maintain the same level of data protection and confidentiality that we do. They can only use your information for the specific services they provide to us and cannot use it for their own purposes.

We may disclose your information if required by law, to protect our rights, or to comply with legal proceedings. In such cases, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you unless prohibited by law or court order.

Your Rights and Choices

You have several rights regarding your personal information. You can access, update, or delete your account information at any time through your user dashboard. If you need assistance with any of these actions, our support team is available to help.

• Access your personal data and download a copy
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• Delete your account and associated data
• Opt out of marketing communications
• Request information about data processing activities
• File a complaint with relevant data protection authorities

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. Account information is typically retained for the duration of your active subscription plus seven years for tax and regulatory compliance purposes.

When you request account deletion, we will remove your personal information from our active systems within 30 days. Some information may be retained in encrypted backups for up to 90 days before permanent deletion. We cannot delete information that we are legally required to maintain.

Usage data and analytics information is typically retained for up to two years to help us improve our services. This data is anonymized and cannot be linked back to individual users after the retention period expires.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience and provide personalized content. These small files help us remember your preferences, analyze site traffic, and improve our platform's functionality.

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. However, disabling certain cookies may limit some features of our platform. We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain until deleted or expired).

We also use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our site. This information is aggregated and anonymized, helping us identify popular features and areas for improvement without tracking individual users.

International Data Transfers

While GrowthNestX is based in South Africa, some of our service providers may be located in other countries. When we transfer your data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information according to South African data protection standards.

We only work with international partners who provide adequate data protection guarantees or operate under recognized data protection frameworks. Any international transfers comply with applicable laws and maintain the same level of protection as domestic processing.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will notify you by email and post a notice on our website at least 30 days before the changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of our services after policy changes indicates your acceptance of the updated terms.

Minor updates, such as clarifications or contact information changes, may be made without advance notice. The "Last Updated" date at the bottom of this policy indicates when the most recent changes were made.
