We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality and security of any personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) under our control. This includes any information gathered as a result of client engagements, marketing and/or any other communications.
This Privacy Policy describes how Personal Information is collected and processed by the Fortis AML Consulting in relation to its operating activities.
This Privacy Policy does not cover Personal Information given to social media or third party payment providers. For example, interactions through LinkedIn or other social media providers result in user information being shared with those providers and not us and is therefore not included as part of our Privacy Policy. Likewise, information shared directly with third party payments providers would be covered under their own privacy policies.
We collect, use and disclose Personal Information for the following purposes:
We only collect Personal Information if it relates directly to an engagement in order to provide the requested services.
The purposes for which we collect Personal Information will be identified before or at the time we collect the information. In certain circumstances, the purposes for which we collect information may be clear, and consent implied, such as when name, address or payment information is provided as part of the onboarding process.
We may use Personal Information to offer personalized advice or services or to send promotional emails. We will only send promotional emails if you have specifically agreed to receive them. For example, you have indicated you would like information regarding a particular service after a webinar.
We collect and analyze data about web traffic and visits to our website, in order to help us understand how users utilize our website, further develop our service offerings and improve our website.
Any Personal Information collected through the website is limited to what is necessary to respond to enquiries, provide requested information, and support business and marketing activities.
We collect Personal Information in the following ways:
Personal Information is collected when users voluntarily provide it through website contact forms or direct communications, such as when submitting an enquiry or requesting information about our services.
We collect limited information automatically through website usage. This includes data collected through cookies and analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our website.

Third-party analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, may be used to measure website performance and traffic trends. Where used, IP addresses are anonymized to reduce identification of individual users.
The Personal Information collected through the website may include:
Personal Information is used only for the purposes for which it was collected, unless additional consent is obtained or use is required or permitted by law.

Where third-party service providers require access to Personal Information, they are permitted to use it only to perform services on our behalf and for no other purpose.
Personal Information is shared only with authorized representatives or service providers where necessary to support our business and marketing operations.
We may use service providers for the following purposes:
Knowledge and consent are required for the collection, use, or disclosure of Personal Information, except where permitted or required by law.
Consent may be withdrawn at any time. Please note that withdrawing consent or choosing not to provide certain information may limit our ability to respond to enquiries or provide requested services. We do not require consent to collect, use, or disclose Personal Information as a condition of service, except where such information is necessary to fulfill the requested service.
Consent may be managed in the following ways:
Upon request, individuals may be informed of the existence, use, and disclosure of their Personal Information and may request access to that information.
We aim to ensure that Personal Information is accurate and complete. Requests to correct or update Personal Information may be made where appropriate. In certain circumstances permitted by law, access may be limited, such as where information includes references to other individuals or where disclosure is restricted for legal, security, or commercial reasons.
