Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. Here's how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use klyntarivo's financial reporting services.

Last updated: March 15, 2025

Introduction and Scope

klyntarivo operates under Australian privacy law, specifically the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This policy explains how we handle personal information when you use our financial reporting platform, subscribe to our investor services, or interact with our team.

We're committed to transparency about our data practices. This isn't legal jargon designed to hide things—it's a straightforward explanation of what happens to your information when you work with us.

Information We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you use our services. Here's what we gather and why we need it:

Account Information

Name, email address, phone number, business details, and billing information when you create an account or subscribe to our services.

Usage Data

How you interact with our platform, which reports you access, time spent on different sections, and feature usage patterns.

Technical Information

IP address, browser type, device information, and cookies that help us deliver and improve our services.

Financial Data

Investment preferences, portfolio information, and financial goals you share to receive personalised reporting and insights.

We only collect information that's necessary to provide our financial reporting services effectively. We don't gather data just because we can—everything we collect serves a specific purpose in delivering value to our users.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We don't sell your personal information to third parties. Period. However, we do share limited information in specific circumstances to deliver our services effectively:

Service Providers

We work with trusted partners who help us operate our platform—payment processors, cloud hosting providers, and analytics services. These providers only access information necessary to perform their specific functions and are bound by confidentiality agreements.

Data Aggregation Partners

We receive market data from financial information providers to enhance our reporting. We may share anonymised, aggregated user insights with these partners to improve data quality, but never individual personal information.

Legal Requirements

We'll disclose personal information if required by Australian law, court order, or regulatory authority. This includes compliance with ASIC requirements and anti-money laundering regulations that apply to financial services.

Before sharing your information with any new service provider, we assess their security practices and data handling procedures. Your information is never shared for marketing purposes by third parties.

Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian privacy law, you have several rights regarding your personal information. Here's how to exercise them:

Access Your Information

Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. We'll provide this within 30 days, usually much faster.

Correct Inaccuracies

Update incorrect or outdated information in your account. Most details can be changed directly through your account settings.

Delete Your Data

Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal retention requirements for financial services.

Restrict Processing

Limit how we use your information in specific circumstances while we resolve any concerns you have.

Data Portability

Export your personal data in a structured format to use with other services.

Withdraw Consent

Stop us from processing information you previously consented to, such as marketing communications.

To exercise any of these rights, contact our privacy team using the details below. We'll respond promptly and help you understand any limitations that might apply under Australian law.

Data Security and Protection

Financial information requires serious security measures. We use multiple layers of protection to keep your data safe:

Technical Safeguards

  • 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmission
  • AES-256 encryption for data storage
  • Multi-factor authentication for account access
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • Automated threat detection and response systems

Operational Security

  • Employee background checks and security training
  • Principle of least privilege for data access
  • Secure development practices and code reviews
  • Incident response procedures and breach protocols
  • Regular backup and disaster recovery testing

Data Location

Your personal information is stored on secure servers located in Australia, ensuring compliance with local data sovereignty requirements. We use reputable cloud providers who meet Australian Government security standards.

Data Retention

We keep your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. Here's our approach to data retention:

Active Accounts

While your account is active, we retain your personal information to provide ongoing services and improve your experience. You can update or delete information through your account settings at any time.

Closed Accounts

After you close your account, we keep basic information for seven years to comply with financial services record-keeping requirements under Australian law. This includes transaction history and account details needed for regulatory purposes.

Marketing Information

If you unsubscribe from marketing communications, we'll remove your details from our marketing lists immediately but keep a record that you've unsubscribed to prevent future contact.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to improve your experience and understand how our platform is used. Here's what we track and why:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for our website to function properly—they handle login sessions, security features, and basic functionality. You can't disable these without affecting how the platform works.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our platform, which helps us improve the service. This includes tracking page views, time spent on different sections, and user journeys through the platform.

Preference Cookies

These remember your settings and preferences—dashboard layout, notification preferences, and display options. They make your experience more personalised and efficient.

You can control cookie settings through your browser, but disabling certain cookies may limit platform functionality. We don't use cookies for advertising or tracking across other websites.

Changes to This Policy

We review and update this privacy policy regularly to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you by email and through our platform.

Minor updates—like clarifying existing practices or updating contact information—won't trigger notifications, but we'll always post the updated date at the top of this policy.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically, especially if you have concerns about how your information is handled. If you have questions about any changes, our privacy team is available to explain them.

Complaints and Disputes

If you're concerned about how we've handled your personal information, please contact us first. We're committed to resolving privacy concerns quickly and fairly.

If you're not satisfied with our response, you can lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). They provide an independent review of privacy disputes and can be reached at oaic.gov.au or 1300 363 992.
