Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 14, 2025
At EliteFuturon, we understand that trusting us with your financial data is a big deal. This policy explains what information we collect, why we need it, and how we keep it safe. We've tried to make this as straightforward as possible because legal jargon doesn't help anyone.
Information We Collect
Running a financial data integration service means we work with sensitive information. Here's what we collect and why it matters for what we do.
Information You Provide Directly
When you sign up or use our services, you share information with us. This includes:
- Your name, email address, and phone number when you create an account
- Company information including business registration details and tax identification numbers
- Financial system credentials that allow us to connect to your accounting software or banking platforms
- Payment information when you subscribe to our services
- Any messages or support requests you send our way
Data We Collect Automatically
Our systems collect certain technical information to keep things running smoothly and spot any unusual activity:
- IP addresses and device information when you access our platform
- Browser type and operating system details
- Pages you visit and features you use within our service
- Time stamps for login sessions and data synchronization activities
- Error logs and diagnostic information when something doesn't work right
Financial Data from Connected Systems
This is the core of what we do. When you connect your financial systems to EliteFuturon, we access and process:
- Transaction records from your accounting software
- Bank account data necessary for reconciliation and synchronization
- Invoice and payment information
- Vendor and customer financial records
- Tax documentation and compliance records
How We Use Your Information
We only use your data for legitimate business purposes related to providing and improving our services. Here's the breakdown:
| Purpose | Description |
|---|---|
| Service Delivery | Synchronizing your financial data between systems, processing transactions, and maintaining accurate records across platforms |
| Account Management | Creating and maintaining your account, processing payments, and providing customer support when you need it |
| Security Monitoring | Detecting and preventing unauthorized access, identifying suspicious activity, and protecting against fraud |
| Service Improvement | Analyzing usage patterns to identify bugs, improve performance, and develop new features that actually help |
| Legal Compliance | Meeting our obligations under Taiwan financial regulations and responding to lawful requests from authorities |
We don't sell your data to third parties. Period. That's not our business model, and it never will be.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We keep your information within our organization whenever possible. But there are specific situations where we need to share data with others:
Service Providers We Work With
Some trusted companies help us run our platform. These include:
- Cloud hosting providers that store your data securely in Taiwan-based data centers
- Payment processors who handle subscription transactions
- Security service providers who help protect against cyber threats
- Email service providers for sending account notifications and support messages
All these partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and can only use your data for the specific services they provide to us.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information when legally required to do so, such as responding to court orders, complying with Taiwan financial regulations, or cooperating with law enforcement investigations. We'll notify you about these requests unless prohibited by law.
Business Transfers
If EliteFuturon is acquired by or merges with another company, your information would be transferred as part of that transaction. We'd notify you before this happens and explain any changes to how your data is handled.
Data Security Measures
Protecting financial data isn't something we take lightly. Here's what we do to keep your information secure:
Technical Safeguards
- All data transmissions use TLS 1.3 encryption
- Financial data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption
- Multi-factor authentication is required for all user accounts
- Regular security audits and penetration testing by independent firms
- Automated intrusion detection systems monitor for suspicious activity
- Database access is restricted to authorized personnel only
Operational Safeguards
- Employee background checks and security training programs
- Strict access controls based on job responsibilities
- Regular backup procedures with encrypted off-site storage
- Incident response plan for addressing potential security breaches
- Vendor security assessments before engaging third-party services
No system is completely foolproof, but we invest heavily in security infrastructure and stay current with emerging threats.
Your Rights and Control
Your data belongs to you. Under Taiwan's Personal Data Protection Act, you have specific rights regarding your information:
Access and Portability
You can request a copy of all personal data we hold about you. We'll provide this in a structured, commonly-used format within 30 days. There's no charge for your first request in any 12-month period.
Correction and Updates
Found an error in your data? You can update most information directly through your account dashboard. For data we sync from your financial systems, you'll need to correct it at the source and we'll update our records during the next synchronization.
Deletion Rights
You can request deletion of your account and associated data. We'll process this within 30 days, though we may need to retain certain information for legal compliance or dispute resolution. Financial transaction records, for example, must be kept for seven years under Taiwan tax law.
Processing Restrictions
You can ask us to stop processing your data in certain situations, such as while we investigate an accuracy dispute. Note that this may affect our ability to provide services during the restriction period.
How to Exercise Your Rights
Send your request to info@elitefuturon.com with "Data Rights Request" in the subject line. We'll verify your identity and respond within the timeframes required by Taiwan law. You can also contact us at +886227313180 during business hours.
Data Retention and Deletion
We don't keep your data forever. Here's how long we retain different types of information:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Financial Transaction Data | 7 years after transaction date | Required by Taiwan tax and financial regulations |
| Account Information | Duration of account plus 2 years | Dispute resolution and service improvement |
| Support Communications | 3 years from last contact | Service quality and training purposes |
| Usage Logs | 18 months from creation | Security monitoring and system optimization |
| Marketing Communications | Until you unsubscribe | Ongoing communication preferences |
When data reaches the end of its retention period, we securely delete it from our active systems. Backup copies are removed during our next backup cycle, which runs monthly.
International Data Transfers
Our primary data centers are located in Taiwan, and we prioritize keeping your data within the country. However, some of our service providers operate globally, which may involve data transfers.
When we transfer data internationally, we ensure adequate protections through:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by Taiwan authorities
- Verification that recipient countries provide adequate data protection
- Additional technical safeguards like encryption during transit and storage
- Regular audits of international service providers
We'll notify you if there are significant changes to how we handle international transfers.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies to make our service work properly and understand how people use it. Here's what we use:
Essential Cookies
These are necessary for basic functionality like keeping you logged in and remembering your preferences. You can't opt out of these without affecting how the service works.
Analytics Cookies
We use these to understand which features get used and where people run into problems. This helps us improve the platform. You can disable these through your account settings.
Security Cookies
These help us detect unusual login patterns and protect against unauthorized access. They're essential for keeping your account secure.
We don't use advertising cookies or share cookie data with advertising networks.
Changes to This Policy
We update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify you by email at least 30 days before they take effect.
Minor updates, like clarifications or formatting changes, might not trigger a notification, but we'll always update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
If you continue using EliteFuturon after changes take effect, that means you accept the updated policy. If you don't agree with the changes, you can close your account before they become effective.
Children's Privacy
EliteFuturon is designed for businesses, not children. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18 years old. If you're a parent and believe your child has provided us with personal information, contact us immediately and we'll delete it.
