Winvest Privacy Policy

Winvest does not sell or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing or other uses. We collect only what is needed to provide our investment services to you, and we protect it with strong security practices.

By using Winvest’s Services or providing personal information to us, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please do not use our Services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

• Personal Information: When you create an account or invest with Winvest, we may collect personal details that you provide to us. This includes your name, email address, contact information, and digital wallet address for deposits and withdrawals. We only ask for information that is necessary to open and manage your account.
• Transactional Data: As you use our platform, we record transactional information related to your investments. This may include records of deposits, investment amounts, earnings or returns, withdrawal amounts, and affiliate commissions earned. We maintain this data to provide you with an account history, facilitate customer support, and meet financial reporting obligations.
• Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with our website and app. This can include pages or features accessed, and the dates/times of access. This information helps us improve our Services and customize your experience. Importantly, any analytics we perform on usage data are generally on an aggregated basis – they are not intended to identify you personally.
• Communication Records: If you contact us for support or with inquiries (via email, or phone), we may keep a record of that correspondence and any contact information or messages you provide. This helps us track support issues and improve our customer service.
• Optional Information: From time to time, we might request information through surveys, promotions, or optional account profile fields (such as your investment preferences). Providing such information is entirely voluntary. If you choose to participate, we will inform you how the information will be used at the point of collection.

We want to reassure you that we limit our data collection to only what is necessary for the purposes explained in this Policy. You have the right to withhold optional information – your core ability to use the Winvest Services will remain unaffected if you choose not to provide non-essential data.

2. How We Use Your Information

Winvest uses the collected information for the following purposes:

• To Provide and Improve Services: We use personal and transactional data to operate your account and facilitate investments. For example, we use your deposit information to execute trades or allocations per your instructions, and we use your contact information to send confirmations or alerts about your account activity. We also analyze usage data to improve site functionality, develop new features, and enhance your user experience. Our goal is to adapt our platform to best meet our clients’ needs using insights from how the Services are used (while maintaining user anonymity in any analytical processes).
• Customer Support: Information you provide when contacting support (such as the content of your emails or chats) is used to respond to your requests and resolve issues. We may reference your account details or transaction history to assist you effectively. Our support team operates under strict confidentiality standards.
• Communication with You: We may use your email address or other contact info to send service-related communications. This includes sending important updates about your account, such as transaction confirmations, changes to terms or policies, security alerts, or maintenance notifications. Occasionally, we may also send newsletters or offers about new Winvest features, investment opportunities, or promotions we believe could interest you. However, we will only send you marketing or promotional emails if you have given us consent or if it is otherwise permissible under applicable law. You are free to opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time, and instructions for unsubscribing will be included in any such email.
• Affiliate Program Administration: If you participate in our affiliate referral program, we use your information to track referrals and calculate rewards. For instance, when someone uses your referral link or code, we will record that referral under your account. We use personal data (like user IDs or emails) of both the referrer and the referred investor to ensure proper crediting of commissions. All such usage remains internal to Winvest’s systems.
• Enforcing Our Terms and Policies: Information may be used to investigate and address any violations of our Terms of Service or other policies. For example, we might review account activity if we suspect fraud or abuse of our system. This is necessary to protect the integrity of our platform and our user community.

We will not use your personal information for any purpose that is not disclosed to you. If we require use of your data for a new purpose, we will update this Policy and notify you when required. Our guiding principle is that your data belongs to you, and our job is to use it only to serve you better in the ways you expect.

3. Protection of Your Information

Winvest takes security very seriously. We employ a range of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Some of the key security measures we have in place include:

• Encryption: We utilize strong encryption protocols for data in transit and at rest. When you enter sensitive information (such as personal details or payment info) on our website or app, that data is transmitted over a secure (TLS/SSL) connection. Additionally, stored personal data in our databases is encrypted or tokenized where feasible. These measures ensure that even if data were intercepted or accessed improperly, it would be unreadable to unauthorized parties.
• Access Controls: Within Winvest, personal data is accessible only to those employees and contractors who have a need to know such information to perform their duties (for example, a customer support representative assisting you, or a finance officer processing a withdrawal). We limit employee access to confidential personal information and enforce strict permissions and authentication controls. Every Winvest staff member is bound by confidentiality obligations and trained on privacy and data protection best practices.
• Secure Infrastructure: We maintain our systems in secure facilities and leverage reputable cloud service providers known for robust security. Our servers are protected by firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and continuous monitoring. We apply regular software updates and security patches to guard against vulnerabilities.
• Testing and Audits: Winvest periodically reviews and tests our security practices. This may include vulnerability assessments, penetration testing by security experts, and audits of our data handling procedures. By routinely evaluating our defenses, we ensure that our security measures remain up-to-date with evolving threats.
• Incident Response: In the unlikely event of a data breach or security incident, Winvest has an incident response plan ready. We will promptly notify affected users and relevant authorities as required by law, and we will take immediate steps to mitigate any potential harm and prevent future incidents. Our priority will always be to be transparent and helpful to our Clients should an incident occur.

By implementing these protections, we strive to exceed industry standards in keeping your data safe. While we do our utmost to protect your personal information, we guarantee absolute security. We encourage you as well to take precautions, such as using a unique and strong password for your Winvest account and enabling any available two-factor authentication.

4. Sharing of Information and Non-Disclosure

Winvest respects the confidentiality of your personal information. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third parties for their own marketing or any other purpose. In fact, Winvest does not disclose your personal information to outside parties except in the narrow circumstances described below, which are all related to providing our Services or complying with the law:

• Affiliates and Corporate Transactions: Winvest is part of the Wealth Invest Corp corporate family. All such affiliates follow the commitments of this Privacy Policy. In the event of a business transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale involving Winvest, user information might be transferred as part of that deal. If such a transfer occurs, we will ensure the recipient of the data is bound to protect your personal information at standards equivalent to those herein, and we will notify you of any change in data control.
• With Your Consent: In any situation where a sharing of your information is not covered by the categories above, Winvest will explicitly request your consent before doing so. You are in control of whether we share your information in ways not described in this Policy.

It’s important to reiterate: No user data is ever sold or given to third parties for their independent use. Our business model is providing a high-quality investment service to you, not monetizing your personal information. We maintain a strict non-disclosure ethos – aside from service-related sharing outlined here, your data stays with Winvest.

5. Data Retention Policy

Winvest retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy. This means:

• Account-related information (like your profile details, transactional records, and communications) is kept while your account remains active. We retain these records to provide you with ongoing access to your investment history, for our internal analytics, and to comply with financial record-keeping regulations.
• Any information collected via cookies or similar tracking technologies is kept according to the typical lifespans of those cookies, or until you clear your browser cookies. We may keep aggregated usage data (which does not identify individuals) indefinitely to help us understand long-term usage trends.

When data is no longer needed, we take care to securely destroy or delete it. For digital data, this includes removing it from our databases and backups. For any physical records (if any exist), we would shred or otherwise securely dispose of them. Our goal is not to hold onto personal data indefinitely.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Winvest believes you should have control over your personal information. Depending on your jurisdiction and applicable privacy laws, you may have certain rights regarding the data we hold about you. We honor the following rights for all our Clients, regardless of location, as a matter of good practice:

• Access and Portability: You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we have about you. We can provide you with a summary of your personal data in our systems. For portability, in many cases, you can download statements or transaction histories directly from your account. If you need additional data export, you can contact us for assistance.
• Correction: If any of your personal information is inaccurate or outdated, you have the right to correct or update it. Much of your basic account information can be updated through your account settings (for example, you can change your contact info). For any details you cannot change yourself, you can reach out to us, and we will promptly make the corrections.
• Deletion (Right to be Forgotten): You may request that we delete your personal data. If you wish to close your account and have personal information removed, please contact us. Note that we cannot delete information involved in active transactions (e.g., if a withdrawal is pending) until those activities are concluded. Also, some data may remain in encrypted backups for a short period until those backups cycle out. We will inform you of the extent to which we can fulfill a deletion request at the time of your inquiry.
• Restriction of Processing: You can ask us to restrict processing of your data in certain circumstances – for example, if you contest the accuracy of the data or if you object to us processing it. This might mean we keep the data but don’t use it until the issue is resolved. We’ll acknowledge and consider any such requests seriously.
• Objection to Processing: If we ever were to process your information for direct marketing (which we do only with consent), you have the right to object or unsubscribe, as noted above. You can also object if you feel our processing is not in your best interests, even if it’s based on our legitimate interests. We will review objections and cease or modify processing as appropriate.
• Withdrawal of Consent: Where we rely on your consent to process information (for example, if you opted in to receive optional communications), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we did prior to your withdrawal, and it may mean we can no longer provide certain services to you.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information provided in the Contact section below. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law. There is no fee for making such requests, though repetitive or excessive requests might.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help us remember your preferences and understand how you use our site. For example, we use cookies to keep you logged in as you navigate through secure areas of the site, and to gather aggregate data about site traffic so we can improve performance.

• Types of Cookies: We use strictly necessary cookies for core functionality (such as session management), performance cookies to analyze usage (e.g., page load times, user interactions), and functionality cookies to remember preferences (like your language or region). We do not use cookies for advertising purposes on our site, and we do not engage in third-party ad targeting.
• Your Choices: Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. Please note that blocking or deleting cookies might affect site functionality – for instance, you may need to re-login or certain features might not remember your settings. We provide a cookie consent banner when you first visit our site, allowing you to choose which non-essential cookies to accept. Even after accepting, you can clear cookies or change your preference at any time by adjusting your browser settings.
• Do Not Track: Our site currently responds to “Do Not Track” signals from browsers because there is a common industry standard for DNT. However, we treat all users’ data with the same high level of respect and do not collect personal information about your online activities across third-party websites.

8. International Data Transfers

Winvest is headquartered in the United States, and our Services are primarily operated from servers located in the United States and Europe. If you are accessing Winvest from outside of our operating country, be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in our country, where our servers and central database are located. Data protection laws vary by jurisdiction, so the laws applicable to your personal information in our country might be different from those in your country of residence.

However, regardless of where data is processed, we apply the same protections described in this Policy. If we transfer personal data internationally, we will take steps to ensure an adequate level of data protection, such as using standard contractual clauses or relying on approved legal frameworks. By using our Services, you consent to this transfer of your information.

9. Updates to This Privacy Policy

If we make material changes, we will notify you by email (sent to the address registered with your account) or by prominently posting a notice on our website prior to the change becoming effective. The “Effective Date” at the top will always indicate when the latest changes were made. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.

If you continue to use the Winvest Services after Privacy Policy changes go into effect, it will signify your acknowledgment of the updated Policy. If you do not agree with any updates, you should stop using our Services and may request us to delete your data as described above.
