We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards designed to protect your information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Analytics
RiskDesk may use anonymous or aggregated analytics to understand how users interact with the App, including feature usage, crash frequency, and general usage statistics. Where practical, analytics data is de-identified and does not identify individual users.

8. Third-Party Services
RiskDesk may integrate with third-party services such as cloud storage providers, authentication services, crash reporting tools, analytics providers, and brokerage or market data integrations where supported. Your use of those services may be subject to their own privacy policies.
9. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the App, maintain account functionality, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements. If you delete your account, we will take reasonable steps to delete or anonymise associated personal information, except where retention is required by law.
10. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing activities. Requests may be subject to identity verification and applicable legal exceptions.
11. International Users
If you access RiskDesk from outside the country where its services are operated, your information may be transferred to and processed in countries with different data protection laws than those in your jurisdiction.
12. Children's Privacy
RiskDesk is intended for users who are at least 18 years old and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
13. No Financial Advice
RiskDesk is a software tool intended to assist with recordkeeping and analysis. The App does not provide personalised financial advice or recommendations, and users remain solely responsible for their trading decisions and risk management.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the Effective Date above. Continued use of the App after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
