Privacy Policy

How we protect and handle your information

1. Information we collect

Canadian Asset Recovery Alliance (CARA) collects only the information necessary to provide our asset recovery consulting services. This may include:

  • Personal identification information (name, contact details) provided voluntarily via WhatsApp, Crisp chat, or email.
  • Case-related information you share about your fraud or scam experience.
  • Technical data such as IP address and browser type when you visit our website (through cookies, which you can disable).

2. How we use your information

We use your information solely for:

  • Responding to your inquiries and evaluating potential recovery cases.
  • Conducting blockchain forensic analysis and legal assessments.
  • Improving our website and services.
  • Complying with legal obligations (e.g., anti-money laundering regulations).

We never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Data sharing & disclosure

We may share your information only when necessary to pursue asset recovery, such as:

  • With cryptocurrency exchanges or financial institutions to freeze stolen funds.
  • With law enforcement or legal authorities when required by law or court order.
  • With our trusted legal partners and forensic analysts under strict confidentiality.

4. Data security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. All communications via WhatsApp and Crisp chat are encrypted. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; you share information at your own risk.

5. Your rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us through our WhatsApp or live chat channels. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Third-party links

Our website may contain links to external sites (e.g., Pexels, WhatsApp). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

Our services are not directed to individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.
