Data Handling
How NorthQuest manages your data.
1. Data Collection
We collect professional contact details and property data (T-12, Rent Roll) necessary to perform NOI audits. We do not collect sensitive personal information such as financial account numbers or personal identifiers beyond business-related data.
2. Use of Data
Your data is used exclusively to deliver your audit service, communicate regarding your engagement, and process payments. Data is never sold, rented, or shared for marketing purposes. Audit data is anonymized for internal benchmarking after 36 months.
3. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures: end-to-end encryption for data in transit, AES-256 encryption for data at rest, secure cloud storage with access logging, and strict access controls. All analysts undergo confidentiality training.
4. Data Retention
Audit-related data is retained for three years for service delivery and legal compliance. Clients may request deletion of their data after audit completion, subject to legal retention requirements.
5. Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data. For any requests, please contact legal@northquestgroup.com. Requests are processed within 30 days.
6. Third-Party Services
We use Stripe for payment processing (PCI DSS compliant) and AWS for secure hosting (SOC 2 compliant). All third-party partners adhere to strict data protection standards.
7. Policy Updates
We may update this policy periodically. Continued use of our services after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
