You have the right to request deletion of your personal data at any time. Email privacy@ainativetax.com and we will delete your data within 30 days.

PIPEDA Compliance

AINative Tax complies with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). We collect only the minimum personal information necessary, with explicit consent, and provide clear mechanisms for data access and deletion.

Data Retention

Waitlist data is retained until you request deletion or until the product launches and waitlist records are no longer needed, whichever comes first. Anonymous tool usage data is retained for up to 12 months.
