Data Security and Protection
Protecting your information is fundamental to our business. We've implemented comprehensive security measures that align with industry best practices and Australian privacy requirements.
- Encryption Standards: All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using AES-256 encryption. Our platform uses TLS 1.3 for all communications, ensuring your information remains secure during transmission.
- Access Controls: We employ role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication for all staff accounts. Only authorized personnel can access customer data, and all access is logged and monitored.
- Infrastructure Security: Our servers are hosted in secure data centers with 24/7 monitoring, biometric access controls, and redundant power systems. Regular security audits ensure our infrastructure meets the highest standards.
- Incident Response: We maintain a comprehensive incident response plan that includes immediate containment procedures, customer notification protocols, and recovery processes to minimize any potential impact.
- Staff Training: All oraventhisca employees receive regular privacy and security training. Our team understands the importance of protecting customer data and follows strict protocols for handling sensitive information.
Despite our robust security measures, no system is completely immune to threats. If a security incident occurs that may affect your data, we'll notify you promptly and take all necessary steps to protect your information.
Data Retention and Deletion
We retain your information only as long as necessary to provide our services and meet legal obligations. Our retention policies are designed to balance your privacy rights with business and legal requirements.
- Active Account Data: Personal and system data for active accounts is retained for the duration of your service subscription plus 12 months for support purposes and billing reconciliation.
- Closed Account Data: After account closure, most personal information is deleted within 90 days. Some data may be retained longer for legal compliance, fraud prevention, or legitimate business interests.
- System Logs: Security and system logs are typically retained for 24 months to support incident investigation and compliance requirements. These logs are automatically purged after the retention period expires.
- Financial Records: Billing and payment information is retained for seven years as required by Australian taxation and accounting laws. This data is stored securely with restricted access.
- Communication Records: Support tickets and customer communications are retained for three years to maintain service quality and resolve any ongoing issues or disputes.
You can request early deletion of your data by contacting our privacy team. We'll honor such requests where legally permissible and technically feasible.
International Data Transfers
While oraventhisca is based in Australia, some of our service providers and infrastructure components may be located internationally. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for any cross-border data transfers.
- Adequate Protection Countries: When possible, we transfer data only to countries that have been deemed to provide adequate privacy protection by Australian authorities, such as New Zealand and European Union member states.
- Contractual Safeguards: For transfers to other countries, we use standard contractual clauses approved by privacy regulators. These contracts require recipients to maintain the same level of protection as required under Australian law.
- US Service Providers: Some of our technology partners are based in the United States. We ensure these providers comply with appropriate privacy frameworks and have robust security measures in place.
- Data Minimization: We limit international transfers to only the data necessary for specific services. Personal information is pseudonymized or anonymized where possible before international transfer.
If you have concerns about international data transfers, please contact us to discuss alternative arrangements that may be available for your specific situation.
