How We Use Your Information
We process your personal data for specific purposes related to our educational services:
We never sell your personal information to third parties. Your data is used solely to deliver and improve our educational services.

- Security: To protect against fraud, unauthorized access, and other security threats
We rely on several legal bases for processing your information under Australian privacy law, including your consent, contract performance, and our legitimate interests in operating an effective educational service.
Sharing Your Information
We share your data only when necessary and with appropriate safeguards in place:
Service Providers
We work with trusted third-party companies that help us run our business. These include payment processors, email service providers, web hosting companies, and learning management system platforms. These providers access your information only to perform specific tasks on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect your data.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information if required by Australian law, court order, or government regulation. This includes situations where disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business Transfers
If borasynlev merges with another organization or sells its assets, your information may transfer to the new entity. We would notify you before this happens and inform you of any changes to how your data is handled.
We don't share your information with marketing partners or sell it to data brokers. Any data sharing occurs under strict confidentiality agreements.
Data Security Measures
We take protecting your information seriously and implement multiple security layers:
- Encryption of sensitive data both in transit and at rest
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
- Restricted access to personal information on a need-to-know basis
- Secure authentication protocols for staff accessing systems
- Regular backups stored in secure, geographically separate locations
- Incident response procedures for potential data breaches
While we use industry-standard security practices, no system is completely invulnerable. We continuously monitor and update our security measures to address emerging threats.
Data Retention Periods
We keep your information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Course enrolment records | 7 years after completion | Educational compliance and certificate verification |
| Payment information | 7 years | Australian taxation requirements |
| Marketing communications | Until you unsubscribe | Ongoing consent |
| Website analytics | 26 months | Service improvement analysis |
| Support enquiries | 3 years | Quality assurance and reference |
When we no longer need your data, we securely delete or anonymize it. Some information may be retained in backup systems for a limited additional period before permanent deletion.
Your Privacy Rights
Under Australian privacy law, you have significant control over your personal information. Here's what you can do:
Access Your Information
You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We'll provide this within 30 days of your request, free of charge for the first copy.
Correct Inaccurate Data
If information we hold is wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll update it promptly. You can often make these changes yourself through your student account.
Request Deletion
You can ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances. We'll honour these requests unless we have a legitimate reason to retain the data, such as legal obligations or ongoing contract requirements.
Withdraw Consent
Where we process your data based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time. This won't affect processing that occurred before you withdrew consent.
Object to Processing
You can object to how we use your information for direct marketing purposes. We'll stop immediately. For other processing activities, we'll assess your request and explain our decision.
Data Portability
You can request your data in a structured, commonly used format to transfer to another service provider.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@borasynlev.com or call +61283166600. We'll verify your identity before processing your request and respond within the timeframes required by Australian law.
International Data Transfers
We primarily store and process your data within Australia. However, some of our service providers operate servers in other countries, which means your information might be transferred internationally.
When this happens, we ensure these transfers comply with Australian privacy law. We use standard contractual clauses, verify that recipient countries have adequate data protection laws, or rely on other approved transfer mechanisms.
If you're concerned about where your data is stored, contact us for more specific information about our current data hosting arrangements.
Children's Privacy
Our services are designed for adults seeking financial education. We don't knowingly collect information from individuals under 18 years of age without parental consent.
If we discover we've inadvertently collected data from a minor without proper consent, we'll delete it promptly. Parents or guardians who believe we may have information about their child should contact us immediately.
Marketing Communications
We may send you educational content, course announcements, and relevant financial literacy resources if you've consented to receive marketing communications.
Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also opt out by logging into your account settings or contacting us directly. Even if you unsubscribe from marketing, we'll still send essential service-related messages about courses you're enrolled in.
We don't send unsolicited communications to people who haven't requested information from us or enrolled in our programs.
