Privacy Policy

Telos Analytica Studio ("we," "our," or "us") is a financial-engineering studio that designs, builds, and operates autonomous, audit-ready financial architectures for CFOs and Chief Strategy Officers at enterprise-scale organisations.

We are the data controller responsible for the personal information collected through this website. If you have any questions about how we handle your data, you can contact us at:

Email: mattparsons@telosanalytica.io

We collect personal information only through a single inquiry form on our website. We do not require user accounts, process payments, or use behavioural tracking technologies.

When you submit an inquiry, we collect the following information:

• First name and last name
• Work email address
• Company name
• Professional role
• Area of interest (selected from a predefined list)
• An optional free-text message describing what you are trying to solve

We do not request or process sensitive personal data, including health information, biometric data, financial records, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or religious beliefs.

Important: Please do not include confidential intellectual property, trade secrets, or sensitive personal information in the free-text field of the inquiry form. Any unsolicited sensitive information submitted prior to the execution of a formal Non-Disclosure Agreement will be purged upon discovery.

We use the information you provide solely for the following purposes:

• To respond to your inquiry and provide information about our consulting services
• To facilitate a professional business conversation initiated by you
• To maintain internal records of business inquiries

We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.

Depending on your jurisdiction, we process your personal information on the following legal bases:

• Consent: By submitting the inquiry form and ticking the consent checkbox, you provide explicit consent to the collection and processing of your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This satisfies the requirements of jurisdictions that mandate explicit consent, including the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.
• Legitimate Interest: In jurisdictions that recognise it (including the European Union, United Kingdom, and Saudi Arabia for non-sensitive data), we also rely on our legitimate interest in responding to a direct business inquiry initiated by you. We have conducted a Legitimate Interest Assessment confirming that this processing is proportionate and does not override your rights.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at mattparsons@telosanalytica.io. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

Your data is processed by a limited number of third-party service providers who are essential to the operation of this website. These providers are bound by contractual obligations to process your data only in accordance with our instructions and applicable data protection laws.

• Ploy: Our website platform provider. Ploy handles form submission capture, secure storage of inquiry data, email notification delivery, and website analytics. Ploy acts as our primary data processor.
• Cloudflare: Provides hosting infrastructure and edge transport services for the website. Cloudflare processes data transiently as part of content delivery and security protection.

We do not share your data with any other third parties, and we do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or behavioural targeting.

Telos Analytica Studio is based in Australia. When you submit an inquiry from outside Australia, your personal information will be transferred to and stored in Australia.

We take appropriate measures to ensure that international transfers of personal data are conducted in compliance with applicable data protection laws, including the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), contractual safeguards with our third-party processors, and compliance with the cross-border transfer requirements of the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the European Union (GDPR), United Kingdom (UK GDPR), Saudi Arabia (PDPL), United Arab Emirates (Federal PDPL, DIFC, and ADGM frameworks), and other applicable regimes.

If you have questions about the specific safeguards applied to your data, please contact us at mattparsons@telosanalytica.io.

We retain inquiry form submissions for a maximum of 24 months from the date of submission. This retention period reflects the extended procurement and sales cycles typical of enterprise financial-engineering engagements.

If your inquiry does not result in a commercial engagement within this period, your data will be securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised. If your inquiry leads to a formal business relationship, your data will be retained in accordance with the terms of that engagement and applicable record-keeping obligations.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

• Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Right to Rectification: You may request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Right to Erasure: You may request that we delete your personal information.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that we limit the processing of your data in certain circumstances.
• Right to Data Portability: You may request that we provide your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
• Right to Lodge a Complaint: You may lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority in your jurisdiction.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at mattparsons@telosanalytica.io. We will respond to your request within 30 days, or within any shorter timeframe required by applicable law.

This website uses Ploy's built-in, privacy-focused analytics to collect aggregated, de-identified usage metrics such as page views and general traffic patterns. These analytics do not use tracking cookies, do not profile individual visitors, and do not collect personally identifiable information.

Because we do not deploy non-essential cookies, advertising trackers, or behavioural profiling technologies, this website does not require a cookie consent banner.

If our analytics practices change in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

We do not currently use automated decision-making or profiling in relation to the personal data collected through the inquiry form. If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to disclose the nature and significance of any automated processing, as required by applicable law.

This website is not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a child, we will delete it promptly.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently revised. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data handling practices, please contact us at:
