We don't collect sensitive personal information such as financial account details, credit scores, or investment portfolios unless specifically required for educational case studies with your explicit consent.

How We Use Your Information

Your personal information helps us provide quality financial education services tailored to your needs. Here's exactly how we use the data we collect:

Course Delivery: Processing enrollments, tracking progress, issuing certificates, and providing personalized learning recommendations

Communication: Sending course updates, educational newsletters, important announcements, and responding to your inquiries

Service Improvement: Analyzing usage patterns to enhance our platform, develop new courses, and improve user experience

Legal Compliance: Meeting our obligations under Australian privacy laws and educational regulations

Marketing: Sharing information about new courses and educational opportunities that match your interests (you can opt out anytime)

We never sell your personal information to third parties or use it for purposes beyond what's described in this policy. All data processing has a clear educational purpose.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

phorionexila takes a cautious approach to sharing your information. We only disclose personal data in specific circumstances and always with appropriate safeguards in place.

Service Providers: Trusted third-party platforms for email delivery, payment processing, and learning management systems that help us operate our services

Educational Partners: Accredited institutions or industry organizations when you participate in joint programs or certification courses

Legal Requirements: Government agencies or courts when required by Australian law, court orders, or legitimate regulatory investigations

Business Transfers: In the unlikely event of a merger or acquisition, your data would transfer under the same privacy protections

Consent-Based: Any other sharing only occurs with your explicit permission and clear explanation of the purpose

All third parties who receive your information are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and must comply with Australian Privacy Principles. We regularly audit these relationships to ensure your data remains protected.

Your Privacy Rights

Under Australian privacy law, you have substantial control over your personal information. We respect these rights and make it easy for you to exercise them.

Access Right: Request a copy of all personal information we hold about you, including how it's been used and who it's been shared with

Correction Right: Ask us to correct any inaccurate or outdated information in our records

Deletion Right: Request removal of your personal information, subject to legal retention requirements

Restriction Right: Limit how we use your information while disputes about accuracy or lawfulness are resolved

Opt-Out Right: Unsubscribe from marketing communications while continuing to receive essential course-related messages

To exercise any of these rights, contact our privacy team using the details below. We'll respond within 30 days and provide clear explanations of any limitations or requirements.

Data Security and Protection

Protecting your personal information is a serious responsibility. We employ multiple layers of security to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

Technical Safeguards: SSL encryption, secure servers, regular security updates, and access controls to protect data transmission and storage

Physical Security: Restricted access to facilities, secure storage of paper records, and proper disposal of sensitive documents

Administrative Controls: Staff training, regular security audits, incident response procedures, and background checks for personnel with data access

Regular Monitoring: Continuous system monitoring, vulnerability assessments, and immediate response to potential security threats

Backup Systems: Secure data backups with encryption and geographically distributed storage to prevent data loss

While we implement industry-standard security measures, no system is completely immune to threats. We maintain comprehensive incident response procedures and will notify you promptly if any security breach affects your personal information.

Data Retention and Storage

We keep your personal information only as long as necessary for legitimate business purposes or as required by Australian law. Our retention practices balance your privacy with practical business needs.

Active Accounts: Personal details and course progress retained while your account remains active and for two years after last activity

Course Records: Educational achievements and certificates maintained for seven years to support verification and accreditation requirements

Financial Records: Payment and billing information kept for seven years in compliance with Australian taxation and business record requirements

Marketing Data: Contact preferences and communication history deleted within six months of opting out

Technical Logs: System access logs and usage analytics retained for 18 months for security and service improvement purposes

When retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymize your information. You can request early deletion of certain data types, though some information must be retained to meet legal obligations or defend potential claims.

Children's Privacy

phorionexila's financial education services are designed for adults and we don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 years of age without parental consent.

If we discover that we've inadvertently collected information from a child under 18, we'll delete it immediately. Parents who believe their child has provided personal information to phorionexila should contact us using the details below.

For educational programs designed for younger learners, we work directly with schools and parents to ensure appropriate privacy protection and obtain necessary consents before collecting any personal information.
