Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 15, 2025
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
At quenthexos, we understand that your privacy matters deeply. This policy explains how we handle your personal information when you use our financial education services. We're based in Australia and follow Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988.
Running a business education platform means we work with sensitive information daily. We've learned that transparency builds trust, and that's exactly what we aim for here. No legal jargon that makes your head spin – just clear explanations of what we do with your data.
Information We Collect
Personal Information You Provide
When you sign up for our learning programs or contact us, we collect information you choose to share. This includes your name, email address, phone number, and business details. Sometimes you'll tell us about your current financial processes or business challenges – this helps us tailor our educational content.
| Information Type | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Contact Details | Name, email, phone, address | Program delivery and communication |
| Business Information | Company size, industry, current processes | Customizing educational content |
| Learning Preferences | Preferred schedules, learning goals | Program scheduling and personalization |
| Payment Information | Billing address, payment method | Processing program enrollment |
Information We Collect Automatically
Like most websites, we gather some information automatically. This includes your IP address, browser type, and how you navigate our site. We use cookies to remember your preferences and improve your experience. Most of this technical stuff helps us understand which educational resources are most helpful.
How We Use Your Information
Your information serves specific purposes in delivering our educational services. We use it to communicate with you about programs, send relevant learning materials, and process enrollments. When you ask questions about financial processes, your business context helps us provide more relevant answers.
- Delivering educational programs and resources you've enrolled in
- Sending program updates, schedules, and learning materials
- Responding to your questions about business financial processes
- Processing payments and managing your account
- Improving our educational content based on participant feedback
- Meeting legal obligations under Australian financial education regulations
We never sell your personal information to third parties. Your data isn't a product – it's information you've trusted us with to provide better education.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We keep your information within our organization unless there's a specific reason to share it. Sometimes we work with service providers who help deliver our programs – like payment processors or email platforms. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
When We Might Share Information
- With trusted service providers who help deliver our educational programs
- When required by Australian law or legal process
- To protect the rights and safety of our participants or staff
- In connection with a business merger or acquisition (with your notification)
- With your explicit consent for specific purposes
We don't share your information with marketing companies, data brokers, or anyone who might spam you. Your business details stay confidential – we understand how sensitive financial process information can be.
Your Privacy Rights
Under Australian privacy law, you have several important rights regarding your personal information. We've made it straightforward to exercise these rights because your control over your data matters.
Access Your Information
Request a copy of all personal information we hold about you. We'll provide this within 30 days, usually much sooner.
Correct Inaccurate Data
If any information we have is wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll fix it promptly.
Delete Your Data
Request deletion of your personal information, subject to any legal obligations we may have to retain certain records.
Limit Processing
Ask us to stop using your information for specific purposes while still maintaining your account.
Data Portability
Receive your information in a portable format if you want to transfer it elsewhere.
Withdraw Consent
Cancel permission for activities that require your consent, like marketing communications.
Data Security and Protection
Protecting your information isn't just about technology – it's about creating a culture of privacy throughout our organization. We use industry-standard encryption for data transmission and storage. Our staff receives regular training on privacy practices and data handling.
Security Measures We Implement
- SSL encryption for all data transmitted through our website
- Secure servers with regular security updates and monitoring
- Access controls ensuring only authorized staff can view your information
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
- Secure backup systems with encryption for data recovery
- Staff training on privacy practices and incident response procedures
Despite our best efforts, no system is completely secure. If a data breach occurs that affects your information, we'll notify you promptly and explain what happened, what information was involved, and what steps we're taking to address the situation.
Data Retention and Deletion
We don't keep your information forever. Our retention periods depend on the type of information and why we collected it. Program enrollment records are typically kept for seven years to comply with Australian business record requirements.
| Information Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Program Enrollment Records | 7 years | Australian business record requirements |
| Marketing Communications | Until you unsubscribe | Ongoing consent basis |
| Website Analytics Data | 2 years | Service improvement purposes |
| Payment Records | 7 years | Tax and accounting obligations |
| Support Communications | 3 years | Service quality and legal protection |
International Data Transfers
Your information is primarily stored and processed in Australia. Sometimes we use cloud services or software providers based overseas, particularly in the United States and European Union. When this happens, we ensure these providers meet Australian privacy standards or have equivalent protections.
We're careful about international transfers because we know privacy laws vary between countries. Any overseas provider we work with must demonstrate they can protect your information to the same standard we maintain in Australia.

Changes to This Privacy Policy
Privacy laws and our practices evolve over time. When we update this policy, we'll notify you by email if you're enrolled in our programs, and we'll post the changes on our website. Significant changes will include a clear explanation of what's different and how it affects you.
We believe in giving you adequate notice about privacy changes – typically at least 30 days before any significant modifications take effect. This gives you time to review the changes and decide how you want to proceed with our services.
