Financial Intels Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy ("Privacy Policy" or "Policy") explains how Financial Intels, LLC and its affiliates ("Financial Intels Affiliates" or "Affiliates") (collectively, "Financial Intels," "we," or "us") collect, use, and disclose personal data from and about you when you use our websites, mobile applications, digital services, connected devices, and any other online or offline services that link to this Policy, or if you otherwise interact with or engage in business with us ("Financial Intels Services" or "Services").

This Policy also outlines the rights you may have regarding your personal data, depending on where you live. You can visit the "Your Rights" section below to learn about and request your privacy rights, including the right to opt out of the "sale," "sharing," or use of your personal data for "targeted advertising" as provided for under applicable privacy laws. If you are a California resident, you can also access our California Notice at Collection for additional information.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Financial Intels Services throughout the world. Any additional privacy terms that relate to specific Financial Intels products or services should be read in conjunction with this Policy.

We offer Financial Intels Services through a wide range of content, tools, and features across many platforms. The data controller of your personal data will be the Financial Intels entity which provides the Services to you or does business with you.
