We only collect what we need to operate our products. We never sell or share your personal data for commercial purposes, and we only disclose information when required to do so by law.

1. Who we are

Artson Ventures Inc. ("Artson Ventures", "Artson", "we", "us", or "our") is a venture studio based in Toronto, Canada that builds and operates digital products, including websites, platforms, and apps. This Privacy Policy applies to all products and services we operate, including but not limited to Learnway, BrainMocker, and Markdown Elixir (collectively, the "Services").

Questions about this policy can be directed to privacy@artsonventures.com.

2. Information we collect

We collect only what is strictly necessary to provide our Services. This may include:

  • Information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, and payment details when you create an account or make a purchase.
  • License and activation data, such as device identifiers used to validate software licenses.
  • Usage data, such as feature interactions, crash reports, and aggregate analytics events used to understand how our products are used and to improve them.
  • Technical data, such as IP addresses, browser type, operating system, and referring URLs, collected automatically when you use our web-based Services.

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as government identifiers, financial account numbers beyond what is required to process a transaction, health data, biometrics, or the content of private communications.

3. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Services you use.
  • Process payments and manage license activations.
  • Send transactional communications, such as purchase confirmations and license keys.
  • Detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents.
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations.
  • Understand aggregate usage patterns to guide product decisions.

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond operating and improving our own Services.

4. How we share your information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not share your data with third parties for their own marketing or commercial use.

We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service providers. We work with a small number of trusted vendors (such as payment processors and infrastructure providers) who process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements.
  • Legal compliance. We will disclose information when we have a good-faith belief that doing so is required to comply with a valid law, regulation, court order, or other lawful governmental request. We will notify affected users when permitted to do so.
  • Protection of rights. We may share information to protect the rights, property, or safety of Artson Ventures, our users, or the public where required or permitted by law.
  • Business transfers. If Artson Ventures is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify affected users before any such transfer and before data becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

5. Data retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services and meet our legal obligations. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us.

6. Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We will notify affected users promptly in the event of a data breach that poses a risk to their rights or freedoms.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Request deletion of your personal data.
  • Object to or restrict certain types of processing.
  • Receive a portable copy of your data.
  • Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@artsonventures.com. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Cookies and tracking

Our websites may use minimal first-party cookies or local storage to maintain session state and remember preferences. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies. Any analytics we collect are aggregated and used solely to understand how our products are used.

9. Children's privacy

Our Services are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. International data transfers

Artson Ventures is based in Canada. If you use our Services from outside Canada, your information may be transferred to and processed in Canada or in other countries where our service providers operate. We take steps to ensure that such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify users directly. Continued use of our Services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
