1. Who We Are
Ascension Corporate Services Inc. is based in Beausejour, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia. References to “ACS,” “we,” “our,” or “us” mean Ascension Corporate Services Inc.
For privacy-related questions, you may contact us through the general inquiry form or by using the contact details provided on this website.
2. Information We May Collect
The information we collect depends on how you interact with ACS and which service or process is involved.
General website and inquiry information
- Name, email address, phone number, country of residence, and preferred contact method.
- General questions or messages submitted through the contact page or general inquiry form.
- Information about which ACS service you are asking about.
- Website usage information, browser information, device information, and cookie-related data where applicable.
Service screening information
- Requested service, proposed company name, proposed business activity, countries involved, timing, and banking-related needs.
- Basic ownership, control, director, shareholder, or beneficial-owner overview provided at the screening stage.
- Information about whether the matter may involve regulated, higher-risk, or restricted activities.
Secure intake and due diligence information
- Identification documents, proof of address, beneficial ownership information, corporate documents, source-of-funds information, and other due diligence information.
- Director, shareholder, beneficial owner, authorized representative, and company officer information.
- Documents or information needed for registered agent coordination, company formation, renewals, amendments, certificates, compliance support, or banking-introduction preparation.
3. General Inquiry, Service Screening, and Secure Portal Intake
ACS separates general inquiries from service requests. The general inquiry form is for basic questions and initial communication only. Visitors should not submit passports, identification documents, proof of address, banking documents, beneficial ownership documents, or other sensitive personal information through a general inquiry form.
If you are ready to begin a possible company formation or corporate-service request, ACS may direct you to the Start Your Company screening process. If the matter appears suitable to proceed, ACS may invite you to complete full intake and due diligence through a secure portal or other secure intake process.
Submitting a general inquiry, service screening request, or information for a portal intake does not automatically create a client engagement. ACS may request more information, decline to proceed, or require additional review before accepting a matter.
4. How We Use Information
ACS may use personal information for the following purposes:
- To respond to general inquiries and service-related questions.
- To review whether a possible service request may proceed.
- To perform intake, due diligence, and client-verification steps.
- To coordinate Saint Lucia IBC formation, registered agent support, registered office arrangements, renewals, amendments, certificates, corporate documents, compliance support, or banking-introduction preparation.
- To prepare, organize, review, or maintain service-related records.
- To communicate with clients, authorized representatives, registered agents, professional advisers, service providers, banks, financial institutions, government authorities, or registry authorities where appropriate.
- To comply with legal, regulatory, due diligence, recordkeeping, risk-management, fraud-prevention, and professional obligations.
- To protect ACS, clients, users, and third parties from misuse, fraud, unauthorized access, or improper activity.
- To improve our website, forms, client intake process, reporting, and service administration.
5. Sensitive Information and Due Diligence Documents
Some services may require sensitive personal information or due diligence documents. These may include identity documents, proof of address, beneficial ownership information, source-of-funds information, banking documents, corporate ownership records, or other information required for review.
ACS will generally request sensitive documents only after the initial screening stage and after providing appropriate intake instructions. Clients should not send sensitive personal documents through ordinary general inquiry forms unless ACS has specifically instructed otherwise through an appropriate process.
6. Legal Basis and Data Protection Context
Saint Lucia’s Privacy and Data Protection Act states that it provides for the protection of individuals in relation to personal data and regulates the collection, holding, use, processing, correction, and disclosure of personal information. The Data Protection Act is also published in the Revised Laws of Saint Lucia by the Attorney General’s Chambers.
Depending on the circumstances, ACS may process information based on consent, steps taken before entering into an engagement, performance of an engagement or contract, legal or regulatory obligations, legitimate administrative or risk-management purposes, or other grounds permitted by applicable law.
7. Sharing Information
ACS does not sell personal information. ACS may share information when necessary or appropriate for service delivery, due diligence, legal compliance, professional review, technology support, or risk management.
Information may be shared with:
- Licensed registered agents, registered office providers, lawyers, compliance reviewers, or professional advisers.
- Government authorities, registry authorities, regulators, or courts where required or appropriate.
- Banks or financial institutions when banking-introduction support is requested and the client authorizes or requests that process.
- Technology providers, secure portal providers, website hosting providers, form providers, email providers, analytics providers, and other service providers that support ACS operations.
- Authorized representatives or persons the client has instructed ACS to communicate with.
8. International Handling of Information
ACS may work with clients, service providers, professional advisers, registered agents, banks, financial institutions, or technology providers located in Saint Lucia or other countries. This means personal information may be accessed, stored, processed, reviewed, or transferred outside the country where the client or website visitor is located.
Where information is transferred or handled internationally, ACS seeks to use appropriate safeguards and service processes based on the nature of the information, the service requested, and applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
9. Security
ACS uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
No website, email system, portal, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Clients should follow ACS instructions for secure intake and should avoid sending sensitive documents through ordinary general inquiry messages.
10. Retention of Information
ACS keeps personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including inquiry handling, service screening, client intake, due diligence review, service delivery, recordkeeping, legal compliance, dispute management, and business administration.
Different categories of information may be retained for different periods depending on the service, applicable law, registered agent requirements, compliance obligations, professional obligations, and operational needs.
11. Cookies, Analytics, and Website Tools
This website may use cookies, embedded forms, analytics tools, security tools, and similar technologies to operate the website, support form submissions, understand website usage, improve user experience, and protect the website from misuse.
More information is provided in our Cookie Policy.
12. Your Choices and Requests
Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may have right to request access to personal information, correction of inaccurate information, deletion or restriction of certain information, withdrawal of consent where consent applies, or information about how your personal information is handled.
Some requests may be limited by legal, regulatory, due diligence, recordkeeping, registered agent, professional, or service obligations. ACS may need to verify your identity before responding to a privacy-related request.
13. Third-Party Links and Services
This website may include links to third-party websites, forms, portals, payment tools, banks, government authorities, or other external resources. ACS is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or policies of third-party websites or services.
You should review the privacy policy and terms of any third-party website or service before submitting information through it.
14. Children’s Privacy
ACS services are intended for business and corporate-service purposes. This website is not intended for children, and ACS does not knowingly collect personal information from children through this website.
