First Andes Silver Inc. (“First Andes Silver Inc.”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a Vancouver, British Columbia based company located at Suite 704, 595 Howe Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 2T5, Canada, that provides an AI-powered chatbot and analytics tool, to public companies and their stakeholders. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you interact with a First Andes Silver Inc.-powered chatbot, widget, website, or related service.

In many cases, First Andes Silver Inc. provides its services on behalf of a public company customer. Where we process personal information on behalf of that customer, we act as a service provider or processor. Where we operate our own website, administer our services, or manage business relationships, we may act as an independent controller.

Information We Collect

Depending on how you use the service, we may collect the following categories of information:

• Chat content: questions, messages, feedback, and other information you submit through the chatbot.
• Contact information: name, email address, investor type, company name, or similar details if you choose to provide them.
• Technical information: IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages visited, timestamps, and general location derived from IP address.
• Usage and analytics information: chatbot interactions, session activity, clicks, preferences, and diagnostic information used to improve reliability and product performance.
• Cookies and local storage: identifiers and preferences used to maintain chat continuity, remember settings, and understand usage of the service.
  
  

How We Use Information

We use personal information for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate, maintain, and improve the chatbot and related services.
• To respond to questions and generate relevant investor relations responses.
• To maintain chat history, session continuity, preferences, and user profiles where applicable.
• To provide analytics and usage insights to our public company customers.
• To detect, prevent, investigate, and address fraud, abuse, security incidents, technical issues, and service misuse.
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.
• To communicate with you if you request updates, submit contact information, or otherwise ask us or our customer to follow up.
  
  

AI Processing

The chatbot may use third-party artificial intelligence models and related infrastructure to generate responses. Chat content and relevant context may be processed by these providers solely to provide the service, improve safety and reliability, and support product functionality, subject to contractual restrictions and applicable law. You should not submit sensitive personal information, confidential information, material non-public information, account credentials, or information you are not authorized to share.

How We Share Information

We may share information with:

• Our public company customers: so they can understand investor questions, respond to inquiries, manage communications, and improve their investor relations programs.
• Service providers and subprocessors: including hosting, database, analytics, monitoring, communications, security, and AI infrastructure providers that help us provide the service.
• Professional advisors: such as legal, accounting, security, or compliance advisors.
• Authorities or third parties when legally required: if necessary to comply with law, legal process, or valid governmental requests, or to protect rights, safety, and security.
• Business transaction parties: in connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality protections.
  
  

Cookies, Local Storage, and Analytics

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the chatbot, remember preferences, maintain sessions, measure usage, and improve the service. Your browser may allow you to block or delete these technologies, but some features may not function properly without them.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, support our customers, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain security. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data, customer configuration, legal requirements, and operational needs.

Security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information, including access controls, environment-based secret management, encrypted transmission, monitored infrastructure, logging and error monitoring, dependency management, and least-privilege operational practices. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Transfers

First Andes Silver Inc. is based in Canada, and information may be processed in Canada and other jurisdictions where we, our customers, or our service providers operate. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection, or withdrawal of consent regarding your personal information. You may also have the right to appeal a decision or lodge a complaint with a data protection authority.

If you interacted with an First Andes Silver Inc. chatbot on behalf of a public company, we may refer your request to that company or coordinate with them as appropriate. To submit a privacy request, contact us at info@firstandes.com.

Children

The service is intended for business and investor relations purposes and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required by applicable law.
