This Privacy Policy explains how OSQ International Inc. ("OSQ", "we", "us") collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards information across our brands and properties — Validated OS (validatedos.com and the associated advisory application), AI Advisory Group (aiadvisorygroup.com), and The Validated Mind (thevalidatedmind.com) (together, the "Services"). It applies to all of these properties, which are jointly operated by OSQ, and describes the choices you have about your information. This single policy covers all three; where a specific section applies only to the Validated OS application (for example, connected accounts), that is noted.
Validated OS is a business-to-business advisory tool used by advisors and their client organizations. Much of the information in the platform is client data supplied by advisors about the organizations and people they work with. Where an advisor or their firm is the party that decides how that data is used, they act as the data controller and we act as their service provider / processor; we handle that data on their instructions and under our agreement with them.
We collect the following categories of information:
We do not sell personal information, and we do not use the content of connected accounts for advertising.
If you connect a Google account (for example, to sync your calendar), our use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
calendar.readonly) and your Google account email address (to label the connection).We share information only as follows:
We retain personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, and thereafter as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Advisors can delete client records they control; generated report files are purged automatically within 24 hours of creation. On account closure we delete or de-identify personal data within a reasonable period, except where retention is legally required.
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information, including encryption in transit, encryption of sensitive secrets (such as OAuth tokens) at rest, role-based access controls, audit logging of key actions, and support for multi-factor authentication. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, port, or restrict the processing of your personal information, and to object to certain processing or withdraw consent. Residents of the EEA/UK (under the GDPR) and of California (under the CCPA/CPRA) have specific rights, including — for California — the right not to be discriminated against for exercising them. We do not sell or "share" personal information as those terms are defined under California law.
Where we process data on behalf of an advisor or organization (as their processor), please direct rights requests to that party; we will assist them in responding. Otherwise, contact us using the details below.
We operate in the United States and may process and store information there and in other countries where our service providers operate. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) for cross-border transfers.
The Service is intended for business use by adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, by additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
Questions, requests, or complaints about this Policy or your data can be sent to privacy@aiadvisorygroup.com or via aiadvisorygroup.com/connect.
