How We Use Your Information
Your data enables us to process consultations, provide exit services, communicate case updates, process payments, and improve our offerings. We may send service-related notifications or marketing (with opt-out). Data supports legal compliance and fraud prevention.
Sharing Your Information
We share data only with trusted service providers (e.g., payment processors, legal partners) under strict confidentiality. No selling or renting occurs. Disclosure happens for legal requirements, business transfers, or with your consent. Third parties must comply with this policy.
CCPA Compliance (California Residents)
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), California residents have rights to know categories of personal information collected (e.g., identifiers, financial info) over the past 12 months, request deletion, opt out of sales (we do not sell data), and non-discrimination. Submit verifiable requests via contact form; we respond within 45 days.
GDPR Compliance (EU/UK Residents)
For EU/UK users, we process data based on contract necessity, consent, or legitimate interests. You have rights to access, rectify, erase ("right to be forgotten"), restrict processing, object, and data portability. Withdraw consent anytime; complaints to supervisory authorities. Data transfers use adequacy or safeguards.
Data Security and Retention
We use industry-standard security (encryption, access controls) to protect data, though no system is infallible. Information is retained as needed for services (typically 7 years post-contract) or legal obligations, then securely deleted.
