Data Security
We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal and financial information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Technical Safeguards
Our technical security measures include encrypted databases, secure server infrastructure hosted in certified data centers, regular security patches and updates, automated backup systems with encryption, and network monitoring for suspicious activities. We also conduct quarterly security assessments and maintain incident response procedures.
Administrative Controls
We limit access to personal information to authorized employees who need it for their job functions. All staff undergo privacy and security training, and we conduct background checks for employees with access to sensitive data. We also maintain detailed audit logs of all data access and modifications.
Physical Security
Our servers are housed in secure data centers with 24/7 physical security, biometric access controls, redundant power systems, and environmental monitoring. These facilities meet or exceed industry standards for data center security and are regularly audited by independent security firms.
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we will notify affected users within 72 hours and provide detailed information about what happened, what information was involved, and what steps we're taking to address the issue.
International Data Transfers
As a Canadian company, we primarily store and process data within Canada. However, some of our service providers may be located in other countries, including the United States and European Union.
Cross-Border Protections
When we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place. This includes using service providers that comply with international privacy frameworks, implementing contractual protections that meet Canadian privacy law requirements, and ensuring data is encrypted during transfer and storage.
Legal Basis for Transfers
We only transfer personal information to countries that provide adequate protection for personal data, or where we have appropriate safeguards in place such as binding corporate rules, standard contractual clauses, or certification schemes that ensure your privacy rights are protected.
Children's Privacy
Our services are designed for adults and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If we discover we have collected information from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately.
Age Verification
During account registration, we ask users to confirm they are at least 18 years old or have reached the age of majority in their jurisdiction. For financial services, we may require additional age verification as part of our legal compliance obligations.
Parental Notice
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at info@quinelorthivas.com. We will work with you to remove any inappropriate information and ensure your child's privacy is protected.
