Privacy Policy — FinQuarry

FinQuarry (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with, and your choices and rights regarding your personal information.

2. Scope

This policy applies to personal information collected when you use finquarry.com, subscribe to our newsletter, contact us, use downloadable datasets, or interact with tools hosted on the site. It does not apply to third-party sites linked from FinQuarry.

3. Information we collect

A. Information you provide voluntarily

• Contact details (name, email) when you subscribe, request contact, or submit forms.
  
• Payment or billing information only if you purchase a paid product or service (handled by third-party processor; we do not store full payment card data).
  
• Content you submit (comments, support requests, survey responses).
  

B. Information collected automatically

• Technical data: IP address, device type, browser, operating system, and pages visited.
  
• Usage data: pages visited, referrer URL, time on page, interaction with tools.
  
• Cookies and similar technologies (see Cookies section).
  

C. Third-party data

• We may receive limited information from trusted third parties (analytics providers, email service providers) depending on service configuration.
  

4. How we use your information

We use personal information for:

• Delivering services you request (newsletters, downloads, replies).
  
• Operating, improving, and securing the site and tools.
  
• Analytics and aggregate reporting to understand site performance.
  
• Communicating updates, notices, and administrative messages.
  
• Legal compliance and fraud prevention.
  

We rely on lawful bases including your consent, performance of a service, legitimate interests (site operation and security), and compliance with legal obligations.

5. Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to improve site function and user experience:

• Essential cookies: required for site operation (no opt-out).
  
• Functional cookies: remember preferences.
  
• Analytics cookies: measure site performance (e.g., Google Analytics).
  
• Advertising/marketing cookies: only used if you opt in.
  

You can manage cookie preferences via your browser settings or any cookie management banner provided on the site.

6. Sharing and disclosure

We do not sell personal information. We may disclose personal data to:

• Service providers under contract (hosting, email delivery, analytics, payment processors).
  
• Legal authorities if required by law or to respond to lawful requests.
  
• Buyers or successors in a business transaction (with notice).
  

Third-party service providers process data under our instructions and are contractually bound to protect it.

7. Data retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described (e.g., newsletter subscribers until unsubscribed; contact requests until resolved). Specific retention periods may vary; contact us to request details.

8. Data security

We maintain reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. No system is entirely secure; in the unlikely event of a data breach, we will comply with applicable notification obligations.

9. International transfers

If data is transferred across borders (for example, to service providers outside your country), we ensure appropriate safeguards (standard contractual clauses, privacy frameworks) are in place.

10. Your rights and choices

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
  
• Correct or update inaccurate information.
  
• Request deletion of your personal data.
  
• Object to or restrict processing.
  
• Request portability of data in a commonly used format.
  
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
  

To exercise these rights, contact: [privacy@finquarry.com] or use the contact form on the site. We will respond within applicable legal timeframes.

11. Special notices (GDPR / CCPA)

• GDPR (EU/EEA residents): You may have additional rights (e.g., right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority). If applicable, specify lawful basis for processing and retention periods.
  
• CCPA (California residents): You may have rights to know, delete, and opt out of sale of personal information. FinQuarry does not sell personal information; where required by law we will provide mechanisms to exercise these rights.
  

(Adjust these clauses to reflect actual compliance measures and local counsel recommendations.)
