4. Data Storage, Retention, and Security
Fonte Capitanca employs state-of-the-art technical, physical, and organizational safeguards to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, modification, or exposure. All transmissions are secured via TLS 1.3 protocol encryption, and stored databases utilize AES-256 standards with distributed key management.
We retain your personal records only for as long as necessary to fulfill the operational purposes for which they were gathered, or to comply with statutory legal, accounting, and anti-fraud retention mandates (typically up to seven years following account termination in the UK).
5. Sharing and International Transfers
We do not monetize, rent, or sell your personal data to unaffiliated marketing vendors. Personal data is disclosed solely under the following limited circumstances:
- To vetted technical service providers, secure cloud infrastructure partners, and identity verification partners operating under strict data processing agreements.
- To regulatory authorities, law enforcement bodies, or judicial organs where required by applicable statutory mandate or court order.
- In connection with corporate reorganizations, mergers, or structural consolidations, subject to equivalent confidentiality provisions.
Where personal data is transferred outside the United Kingdom, we guarantee adequate levels of protection through UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) or European Commission adequacy findings.
