Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 15, 2025
Information We Collect
calyphorenta collects various types of information to provide and improve our financial services platform. We gather personal identification details when you register for an account, including your name, email address, phone number, and business information relevant to your financial activities.
Additionally, we collect usage data about how you interact with our platform. This includes IP addresses, browser types, device information, and activity logs that help us understand user preferences and system performance patterns.
Under Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), we're required to inform you about the primary purpose of data collection. Our main purpose is providing financial education and business process management services to Australian businesses.
How We Use Your Information
Your personal information serves multiple purposes within our financial platform ecosystem. We use contact details to communicate important updates about your account, send educational materials related to business processes, and provide customer support when needed.
- Account creation and management for our financial services platform
- Delivery of educational content about business processes and financial literacy
- Customer support and technical assistance
- Platform improvement based on usage analytics
- Compliance with Australian financial regulations and reporting requirements
We may also use aggregated, anonymized data to conduct research and develop new features that benefit our user community. This research helps us understand trends in business process management and financial education needs.
Data Storage and Security
All personal data is stored on secure servers located within Australia, ensuring compliance with local data sovereignty requirements. We employ industry-standard encryption protocols, including AES-256 encryption for data at rest and TLS 1.3 for data transmission.
Our security measures include regular penetration testing, multi-factor authentication for staff access, and continuous monitoring for suspicious activities. We maintain detailed access logs and conduct quarterly security audits to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
Data retention periods vary by information type. Account information is retained for the duration of your active account plus seven years post-closure, as required by Australian business record-keeping regulations. Usage logs are typically retained for two years for security and analytics purposes.
Third-Party Data Sharing
calyphorenta maintains strict controls over third-party data sharing. We work with selected service providers who assist in platform operations, including cloud hosting services, email delivery systems, and analytics tools. All third parties are bound by comprehensive data processing agreements that meet Australian privacy standards.
- Cloud hosting providers for secure data storage and platform reliability
- Email service providers for delivering educational content and notifications
- Analytics services that help us understand user engagement (using anonymized data)
- Payment processors for handling subscription and service payments
We never sell personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. Any data sharing occurs solely to support the services you've requested or to meet legal obligations under Australian law.
Your Rights Under Australian Privacy Law
As an Australian resident, you have specific rights regarding your personal information under the Privacy Act 1988. These rights include requesting access to the personal information we hold about you, asking for corrections to inaccurate data, and in certain circumstances, requesting deletion of your information.
You can exercise these rights by contacting our privacy officer through the details provided below. We typically respond to privacy requests within 30 days, though complex requests may require additional time. There's generally no charge for basic access requests, though reasonable fees may apply for extensive or repeated requests.
If you're unsatisfied with our handling of your privacy concerns, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). We encourage you to contact us first so we can work together to resolve any issues.

International Data Transfers
While we primarily store data within Australia, some of our service providers may process data internationally. When this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including contractual protections that meet Australian privacy standards and, where applicable, adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.
Any international transfers are limited to what's necessary for service delivery and are subject to the same security standards we maintain domestically. We regularly review our international data processing arrangements to ensure ongoing compliance with evolving privacy regulations.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We review and update this privacy policy annually or when significant changes occur to our data processing practices. When material changes are made, we'll notify active users via email and display prominent notices on our platform for at least 30 days before the changes take effect.
Minor updates, such as clarifications or contact information changes, may be implemented immediately with notification through our platform. We encourage users to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect and handle personal information.
