Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 15, 2025

At AlgoFocus, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our tokenization and blockchain education services.

We operate from Argentina and comply with both Argentine data protection laws and international privacy standards. Your trust matters to us, and we want you to understand exactly how your information is handled.

Information We Collect

Personal Information

When you register for our programs or contact us, we collect basic information like your name, email address, and phone number. We also gather information about your educational background and professional interests to better match you with suitable learning programs.

Contact Details

Name, email, phone number, and mailing address for communication and program delivery.

Educational Information

Background, experience level, and learning goals to customize your educational experience.

Technical Data

IP address, browser type, and device information for security and website functionality.

Usage Information

We track how you interact with our website and learning materials. This includes pages visited, time spent on content, and completion rates for educational modules. This data helps us improve our programs and understand what works best for students.

We never collect sensitive financial information beyond basic payment processing details, which are handled securely through third-party payment processors.

How We Use Your Information

Educational Services

Your information helps us deliver personalized education experiences. We use your background and goals to recommend appropriate courses and adjust difficulty levels. Progress tracking allows us to identify areas where you might need additional support.

Communication

We send program updates, educational resources, and important announcements related to your enrollment. You can control the frequency and type of communications you receive through your account settings.

  • Course notifications and scheduling updates
  • Educational newsletters with blockchain industry insights
  • Program completion certificates and achievement recognition
  • Technical support and customer service responses
  • Occasional surveys to improve our educational offerings

Platform Improvement

Aggregated usage data helps us identify popular topics, common learning challenges, and opportunities to enhance our curriculum. We never use individual data for these analytics - everything is anonymized and combined with other student data.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Service Providers

We work with trusted third-party companies to deliver our services. This includes email providers for communications, payment processors for transactions, and hosting companies for our learning platform. These partners are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for specified purposes.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose information when required by Argentine law or to protect our rights and the safety of our students. This is rare and only happens when legally necessary.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to marketing companies or data brokers. Your educational privacy is paramount to us.

Business Transfers

In the unlikely event that AlgoFocus is sold or merged with another company, your information would be transferred as part of that transaction. You would be notified of any such change and given options regarding your data.

Your Rights and Choices

Under Argentine data protection laws and our commitment to privacy, you have several rights regarding your personal information:

Access Rights

Request a copy of all personal information we have about you, including how it's been used and shared.

Correction Rights

Update or correct any inaccurate information in your profile or educational records.

Deletion Rights

Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal and educational record requirements.

Portability Rights

Receive your information in a portable format to transfer to another educational provider.

How to Exercise Your Rights

Contact us at contact@algo-focus.com with your request. We'll respond within 30 days and may need to verify your identity for security purposes. Most common requests can be handled through your student account dashboard.

Marketing Communications

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the links in our messages. Essential educational communications about your enrolled programs will continue as needed.

Data Security and Storage

Security Measures

We protect your information using industry-standard security practices. Our systems use encryption for data transmission and storage, regular security audits, and restricted access controls. Staff members receive privacy training and sign confidentiality agreements.

Data Retention

We keep your information only as long as necessary for educational purposes and legal compliance. Active student records are maintained during enrollment and for three years afterward. Anonymous usage analytics may be retained longer for educational research purposes.

  • Contact information: Deleted within one year after program completion, unless you request continued communications
  • Educational records: Maintained for three years for certification verification and academic references
  • Payment information: Processed through secure third-party systems and not stored on our servers
  • Website analytics: Anonymized data retained for two years for platform improvement

International Transfers

Some of our service providers operate outside Argentina. When your information is transferred internationally, we ensure adequate protection through contractual safeguards and compliance with Argentine data transfer regulations.

Children's Privacy

For students aged 16-18, we require parental consent before enrollment and provide additional privacy protections as required by Argentine law.
