Confidentiality is not something we promise – it is something we are. The structure of ARISTÉ was designed from inception to ensure that information flows only where it must, remains only where it should, and disappears when it is no longer required. This is not a compliance exercise. It is our founding principle.
I · Information We Hold
We collect only what is necessary to serve you effectively. This includes contact details you provide, the nature of your requirements, and records of our engagements on your behalf. We do not harvest data. We do not build profiles for purposes beyond your service. We do not monetise information.
- Identity and contact information you provide directly
- Records of requests, preferences, and completed engagements
- Communication logs necessary for continuity of service
- Financial information required for specific transactions, held only as long as legally mandated
II · How Information Is Protected
Your information resides in compartmentalised systems accessible only to those directly involved in your service. We employ end-to-end encryption for all digital communications. Physical records, where they exist, are held in secure facilities with restricted access protocols.
Our team members operate under binding confidentiality agreements that extend beyond their tenure with us. Third parties engaged on your behalf receive only the minimum information necessary to execute their specific task.
III · Information We Never Disclose
We do not confirm or deny membership. We do not discuss the nature or details of any engagement. We do not provide client lists, references, or testimonials that could identify individuals without explicit, written consent – which we rarely request and even more rarely receive.
Requests from third parties, including legal entities, are directed to our counsel and handled with maximum resistance within the bounds of applicable law.
