    13. Data Retention

    Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it is processed and in accordance with applicable legal, contractual, operational, and recordkeeping requirements.

    The appropriate retention period may depend on factors including:

    • Customer support enquiries.
    • Account or trading-related disputes.

    Where information is processed by an external provider, that provider may also retain information according to its applicable obligations and privacy practices.

    14. International Processing

    River Valley Capital's services involve companies and service providers that may operate in different countries.

    Personal information may therefore be processed, accessed, or transferred across jurisdictions where necessary to provide the relevant services.

    Where applicable data protection law requires safeguards for international transfers, the organisation responsible for the relevant processing must use the protections required by applicable law.

    15. Your Data Protection Rights

    Depending on the applicable data protection law and the circumstances of the processing, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

    These may include the right to:

    • Request access to your personal information.
