7. International data transfers

iQLABS is based in New Zealand, and our service providers may operate in New Zealand, the European Union, the United States, or other countries. This means your information may be transferred to and processed in countries that may have different data protection laws than your own.

Where required, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as contractual protections consistent with applicable data protection law.

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

  • Diagnostic data and reports may be retained for a period to support your use of the service and our product improvements.
  • Certain records (for example, transaction details kept by Paddle) may be retained for longer where required by tax or accounting laws.

9. Security

We use technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls, and monitoring of our infrastructure.

No online service can guarantee perfect security, but we work to protect your data and review our controls regularly. If we become aware of a significant security incident affecting your data, we will take appropriate steps and, where required by law, notify you and the relevant authorities.
