How Steravindal handles your personal data | Privacy Policy
How this research tool collects, uses and protects your personal information.
What information we collect and why
When you use this research tool, we may collect personal information including your email address (when you sign up for our newsletter or create an account), information you provide during research sessions, and technical data about how you interact with our service such as browser type, device information and usage patterns. We collect this information to provide and improve the service, to communicate with you about updates and relevant content, and to ensure the security and reliability of the platform.
We do not collect sensitive financial data such as account numbers, portfolio values or transaction histories. The research questions and topics you explore within this research tool are used to support your session and to improve the quality of the AI research assistance we provide. We handle all personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. If you have questions about the information we hold about you, please contact us at contact@steravindal.com.
How we use and share your information
We use your personal information to operate and improve the this research tool service, to send you communications you have requested (such as our newsletter), and to respond to enquiries you send to us. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising purposes or share it with marketing organisations. We may share data with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform — for example, hosting providers and email delivery services — under strict contractual obligations that prohibit them from using your data for any other purpose.
We may be required to disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in response to a valid legal request from a public authority. In such cases, we will disclose only the minimum information necessary to comply with the legal obligation. We will retain your personal data for as long as necessary to provide the service and comply with our legal obligations. You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us at contact@steravindal.com.
Your rights and how to exercise them
Under UK GDPR, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. These include the right to access the data we hold about you, the right to have inaccurate data corrected, the right to request deletion of your data in certain circumstances, the right to object to or restrict certain types of processing, and the right to data portability. You also have the right to withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent as the legal basis for processing your data.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@steravindal.com. We will respond to all requests within one calendar month, as required by UK GDPR. If you are not satisfied with how we handle your request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection supervisory authority, at ico.org.uk.
