Privacy Notice
Aisa International SAS, Aisa International s.r.o., Aisa International (pty) Ltd, Aisa International and Aisa Professional are part of Aisa Group. Aisa Professional is a trading style of Aisa Financial Planning Ltd. This privacy notice explains how we use any personal information we collect about you.
What information do we collect about you?
We collect, handle and hold information about you when you engage us for financial planning or financial advice. This information will relate to your personal and financial circumstances. It may also include special categories of personal data such as data about your health, if this is necessary for the provision of our services.
We may also collect information when you voluntarily complete client surveys or provide feedback to us, and this can be done through our online system called Trove. Trove is owned by Aisa Group.
Information about connected individuals
We may need to gather personal information about your close family members and dependants in order to provide our service to you effectively. In such cases it will be your responsibility to ensure that you have the consent of the people concerned to pass their information on to us. We’ll provide a copy of this privacy notice for them if we are also providing services to them or, where appropriate, ask you to pass the privacy information to them.
Why do we need to collect and use your personal data?
The primary legal basis that we intend to use for the processing of your data is for the performance of our contract with you. The information that we collect about you is essential for us to be able to carry out the services that you require from us effectively. Without collecting your personal data we’d also be unable to fulfil our legal and regulatory obligations.
Where special category data is required, we’ll obtain your explicit consent in order to collect and process this information.
How will we use the information about you?
We collect information about you in order to provide you with the services for which you engage us.
Who might we share your information with?
If you engage the services of Aisa Group, we may email you about other products or services that we think may be of interest to you. We’ll pass on your personal information to our group of companies so that they may offer you their products and services linked to your circumstances.
We won’t share your information for marketing purposes with companies outside our group of companies.
In order to deliver our services to you effectively we may send your details to third parties such as those that we engage for professional compliance, accountancy or legal services as well as product and platform providers that we use to arrange financial products for you.
Where third parties are involved in processing your data, we’ll have a contract in place with them to ensure that the nature and purpose of the processing is clear, that they are subject to a duty of confidence in processing your data and that they’ll only act in accordance with our written instructions.
Where it’s necessary for your personal data to be forwarded to a third party we’ll use appropriate security measures to protect your personal data in transit. Any data sent to third parties are password protected and encrypted. Within Trove, all data is secured with encryption, and access to the system is two-factor authenticated. Third party use will be granted only to those firms that we engage for professional compliance and IT services.
To fulfil our obligations in respect of prevention of money-laundering and other financial crime we may send your details to third party agencies for identity verification purposes.
How long do we keep hold of your information?
During the course of our relationship with you we’ll retain personal data which is necessary to provide services to you. We’ll take all reasonable steps to keep your personal data up to date throughout our relationship.
We are also subject to regulatory requirements to retain your data for a specified minimum period after our relationship with you has ended. This period is five (5) years, unless we are required to, in special cases, hold them for shorter or longer periods, such as in case of litigation.
We retain your personal information for only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling any legal, accounting or regulatory obligation.
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data. We’ll comply with this request, subject to the restrictions of our regulatory obligations and legitimate interests as noted above.
How can I access the information you hold about me?
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information that we hold about you. If you’d like a copy of some or all of your personal information please email or write to us using the contact details in the section of this policy titled ‘How to contact us’. We will provide that information in digital format where appropriate, and we will summarise the personal data and information we hold about you rather than provide copies of generic files.
When your personal data is processed by automated means, you have the right to ask us to move your personal data to another organisation for their use if it is technically possible.
We have an obligation to take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. Please ask us to correct or remove any information that you think is incorrect.
Automated decision making and profiling
If you use Trove your personal information will be gathered through the information that you input onto the system. Your data is collected in order for us to carry out the service for which you engage us. If you’re unsure about the outcome of the automated process you can contact us to discuss or to challenge the outcome.
We take measures to ensure the security of your data by following best practice including encryption and separate database held on private servers with full security and regular anti-hack checks. We don’t use any special category data (such as data about your health) in the automated process unless it’s strictly necessary to deliver our service and we have obtained your explicit consent to do so.
We regularly check our systems for accuracy and bias and feed any changes back into the design process.
Marketing
We’d like to send you information about our products and services and those of other companies in our group which may be of interest to you. If you’ve agreed to receive marketing information, you may opt out at a later date.
You have a right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes or giving your information to other members of the group. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please contact us by email or post.
