Avestor Privacy Policy
Last updated on September 1, 2021
Welcome to Avestor’s website (the “Site”). We refer to Avestor Inc. and our operating subsidiary, Avestor Partner Services, LLC., collectively as “Avestor”, “we” or “us”. This Site is operated by Avestor and has been created to provide information about our company and our asset management services (the “Services”).
Avestor Privacy Policy (the “policy”) describes the specific policies and procedures we use to collect, utilize, disclose, share and protect your Personal Information. Together with our Terms of Use, this Privacy Policy governs your use of our platform and services. By using the Site or Services, you consent to the data practices set forth in this Privacy Policy.
Avestor is committed to the protection of our visitors, registered users and clients (also referred to as “you” or “your”) privacy. We understand that keeping your information secure and confidential is critical to earning and keeping your trust.
Let us start by saying very clearly that we do not rent, sell or trade your Personal Information. Avestor’s core business is asset management of your capital. Our goal and our business model is based on maintaining you as a Client on our platform for the long term. That means we must keep and maintain your trust in everything we do. We have no incentive to sell your information to others and losing that trust.
How to Use this Privacy Policy
This policy describes if and how your Personal Information is shared and/or disclosed, how we collect and use other information and how we address other privacy matters – such as deletion of your Personal Information upon request, and opting-out of marketing communications. Lastly, we describe methods for contacting Avestor if you have privacy questions, comments or feedback.
Transparency is one of the best ways to earn your trust. The information we collect from you increases as your relationship with us grows. The progression of that relationship is shown in the figure below. Additional information of what we collect is presented in the How We Collect & Use Your Information section of this privacy policy.
