How We Use Your Information

Your information serves specific purposes related to providing secure digital banking services. We don't use your data for purposes unrelated to financial security and service delivery. Each use has a clear business reason that benefits your security.

Primary Use Cases

We process your personal information under several legal bases as defined by Canadian privacy legislation, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

  • Service Delivery: Managing your account, processing transactions, and providing customer support
  • Security Monitoring: Detecting suspicious activities, preventing fraud, and maintaining system integrity

  • Product Improvement: Analyzing usage patterns to enhance security features and user experience
  • Risk Management: Assessing and mitigating potential security threats to our platform

We may also use aggregated, non-identifiable data for research and development purposes. This helps us understand broader security trends and improve our services without compromising individual privacy. Such data cannot be traced back to specific users.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We share your personal information only when necessary for service delivery, legal compliance, or security purposes. We maintain strict controls over who can access your data and under what circumstances. Your information isn't sold to third parties for marketing purposes.

When We Share Information

Financial Partners Transaction verification data Payment processing and fraud prevention
Regulatory Bodies Compliance reporting data Legal and regulatory compliance

All third-party service providers must sign comprehensive data protection agreements and demonstrate adequate security measures. We conduct regular audits of partners who handle your information to ensure they maintain our privacy standards.

Your Privacy Rights

Under Canadian privacy law, you have significant control over your personal information. We've designed straightforward processes for you to exercise these rights. Most requests can be handled within our online portal, though some may require additional verification for security.

  • Access: Request copies of personal information we hold about you
  • Correction: Update or correct inaccurate information in your account
  • Deletion: Request removal of your data (subject to legal retention requirements)
  • Portability: Obtain your data in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Restriction: Limit how we process your information in certain circumstances
  • Objection: Object to processing based on legitimate interests

How to Exercise Your Rights

To make a privacy request, log into your account and visit the Privacy Settings section, or contact our privacy team directly. We typically respond to requests within 30 days. For security reasons, we may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

If you're not satisfied with how we handle your privacy request, you can file a complaint with the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. We'll provide you with information about this process if needed. We always try to resolve concerns directly first.

Data Security and Protection

Security is fundamental to our business model. We employ multiple layers of protection to safeguard your information, including encryption, access controls, and continuous monitoring. Our security team regularly tests and updates our defenses against emerging threats.

Security Measures

  • End-to-end encryption for data transmission and storage
  • Multi-factor authentication for account access
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Employee background checks and security training
  • 24/7 security monitoring and incident response
  • Secure data centers with physical access controls

Despite our extensive security measures, no system is completely immune to security incidents. In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your information, we'll notify you promptly and provide guidance on protective steps you can take. We maintain comprehensive incident response procedures and work with cybersecurity experts when needed.

We also provide security education resources to help you protect your own information. Strong passwords, recognizing phishing attempts, and keeping your devices updated all contribute to your overall security when using our services.

Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your information only as long as necessary for the purposes we collected it, plus any additional time required by Canadian law. Different types of information have different retention periods based on their use and legal requirements.

Information Type Retention Period Reason
Account Information 7 years after account closure Financial record-keeping requirements
Transaction Records 7 years from transaction date Regulatory compliance and dispute resolution
Communications 3 years from last contact Customer service and legal protection
Marketing Data Until opt-out or 2 years inactive Communication preferences

When we delete your information, we use secure deletion methods to ensure it cannot be recovered. Some information may persist in backup systems for a limited time as part of our disaster recovery procedures, but these backups are also subject to secure deletion schedules.

If you close your account, we'll begin the deletion process according to our retention schedules. However, some information must be retained to meet legal obligations or resolve disputes that may arise after account closure.

International Data Transfers

While thalionarvox primarily operates within Canada, some of our technical infrastructure and service providers may be located in other countries. When we transfer your information internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your privacy rights.

Transfer Safeguards

All international transfers are governed by contractual protections that require recipients to maintain Canadian-level privacy protections. We use standard contractual clauses and conduct due diligence on the privacy laws of destination countries.

  • Cloud infrastructure providers with Canadian data residency options
  • Service providers bound by contractual privacy protections
  • Technical measures like encryption during transit and storage
  • Regular audits of international service providers
  • Limitation of transferred data to operational necessities only

You can request information about specific international transfers of your data by contacting our privacy team. We'll provide details about the countries involved, the safeguards in place, and the purposes of such transfers.
